Service Cancellation and Refund Policy
31. Management Cycle Commitment: Upon successful payment for services, RunPPC immediately allocates resources and begins managing the client’s account for the forthcoming service cycle. Each management cycle is defined as the period from the date of payment to the equivalent date of the following month.
32. Cancellation Timing: Clients may cancel their services at any time. However, cancellations must be submitted before the next payment cycle begins. If a cancellation occurs after payment has been processed for the upcoming management cycle, the cancellation will take effect at the end of the current cycle, and no refunds will be issued for services already paid for and initiated.
33. Resource Allocation: Once payment is received, RunPPC assigns dedicated account managers and allocates resources for the entire month. Due to this allocation, which limits the number of clients each account manager can handle, we cannot reallocate or replace the client with new business in the middle of a billing cycle.
34.Refunds: Refunds will only be provided in cases of duplicate or erroneous payments. Once a payment is processed, it is non-refundable unless otherwise agreed upon by RunPPC in writing.
35. Service Disputes: Any disputes regarding the quality or delivery of services must be raised in writing during the active management cycle. If no such disputes are raised, it is assumed that the services have been delivered as agreed.
Intellectual property
36. We reserve all copyright and any other intellectual property rights which may subsist in any goods supplied in connection with the provision of the Services. We reserve the right to take any appropriate action to restrain or prevent the infringement of such intellectual property rights.
