5. Refund Policy

As our offerings are digital and cannot be physically returned, refunds will only be granted under the following circumstances:

  • Duplicate purchases
    If you unintentionally purchase multiple licenses for the same product, we will happily refund the duplicate purchase(s). Please contact us at contact@6tm-magazine.com to resolve the issue.
  • Technical issues with the Product
    Should you encounter a technical problem with a product that cannot be resolved after bringing it to our attention, you may qualify for a refund. To initiate this process, provide detailed information about the issue by emailing contact@6tm-magazine.com Refunds for technical issues will only be issued if the problem is reproducible and sufficient details are provided to demonstrate the issue.
    Example: If a font file consistently fails to install due to corruption, it would be considered eligible for a refund. However, if the issue arises from software incompatibility on your system, this would not be grounds for a refund.
  • Misrepresentation of the Product
    If the product delivered does not align with its description or is missing key elements explicitly promised, it may qualify as “misrepresented.” Refunds will only be granted in cases where the discrepancy is factual and material.
    Example: A product claiming to include editable vector files but delivering only flattened images would be deemed misrepresented. On the other hand, dissatisfaction with the artistic style or perceived quality (e.g. “It doesn’t meet my expectations”) would not constitute misrepresentation.

Refund requests are not granted in certain circumstances, as outlined below. Refund eligibility is determined solely at the discretion of 6TM® Magazine:

  • If you or your client no longer require the product you purchased.
  • If you have found an alternative product that you prefer or have simply changed your mind about the purchase.
