Refund and Cancellation Policy

Withdrawal of Contract Application

  1. Customers who have signed a contract with the platform regarding the purchase of goods may withdraw the contract application within 7 days from the date the contract details are delivered. If supply of goods is delayed, withdrawal may be made within 7 days of receipt or commencement of supply.
  2. Once goods are received, the customer may not return or exchange them in the following cases:
    • Requests based solely on a simple change of mind, where there is no defect in the product.
    • Goods lost or damaged due to the customer's responsibility (except for necessary opening of packaging to confirm contents).
    • Goods whose value has been significantly reduced by use or partial consumption.
    • Goods whose value has decreased substantially over time, making resale difficult.
    • Goods with damaged packaging that allows duplication of performance.
  3. If goods are different from the advertised description or contract terms, the customer may withdraw from the contract within 3 months of receipt, or from the date the issue is or should have been discovered.

Effects of Withdrawal and Refund Restrictions

  1. Customized Goods Exception: For customized products, including but not limited to formulation, container, and packaging, once production has commenced after down payment, the order cannot be cancelled or refunded under any circumstances, including cases of change of mind.
  2. Non-Refundable Down Payment: Down payments are immediately allocated to raw materials, formulation development, and manufacturing processes. They are therefore strictly non-refundable once paid.
  3. Production Phase: Orders for formulation, container, and packaging are placed upon down payment. If the customer requests cancellation after production has started, no refund will be issued for any amounts paid.
  4. Balance Payment: Upon completion of production, the customer must pay the remaining balance. After balance payment, the entire order becomes non-refundable. Final shipping and documentation fees are added at this stage and must be paid before shipment.
  5. Refund Method: In cases of approved refunds (e.g. defective goods or misrepresentation), when payment was made via credit card, electronic money, or other electronic methods, the platform will request the payment provider to stop or cancel the transaction. However, refunds are not available once the platform has fulfilled its obligations for the relevant service.
  6. Platform's Right to Resource Recovery: The platform shall not claim penalties or damages from the customer for withdrawal of a contract within their lawful right of withdrawal. However, if withdrawal occurs after production has commenced but before completion of each component of production (such as formulation development, container preparation, or packaging), the platform reserves the right to claim resource payments for costs already incurred. Resource payments may include, but are not limited to, expenses for raw materials, formulation R&D, container or packaging procurement, and labor associated with the production stage already completed at the time of cancellation.
  7. If goods are returned or reshipped due to customer absence or incorrect recipient information, the customer is responsible for shipping fees.
  8. At the time of all returns, customers must return any gifts or promotional items. If such items have been used, their value may be deducted from the refund, unless the return is due to the platform's responsibility.

Disclaimer

  1. The company shall be exempted from liability if a failure to use the service occurs due to the member's responsibility.
  2. The company shall be exempted from liability for damages caused by the member not obtaining the expected profit from the provision of services of the company, or by selecting or using service materials.
  3. The company shall be exempted from liability for the information, materials, factual reliability, accuracy, etc. posted on the service by the member.

Competent Court

  1. Matters not stipulated in this contract and the interpretation of this contract shall be processed in accordance with relevant laws and business practices of the Republic of Korea.
  2. For various disputes and proceedings regarding the use of services under this contract, the court having jurisdiction over the member's address or the Seoul Central District Court shall be the court of first instance.
