REFUND POLICY
HubScope.ai ("HubScope.ai," "we," "us," or "our") is committed to client satisfaction and transparency in all our service engagements. This Refund Policy outlines the general principles regarding refunds for our strategy assessment, vendor solution recommendation, and integration services.
This policy should be read in conjunction with our main Terms and Conditions and any specific Service Agreement entered into between HubScope.ai and you, the client.
1. General Principles for Service-Based Offerings
HubScope.ai provides specialized consulting and integration services tailored to the unique needs of each client. Due to the nature of these services, which involve significant investment in time, resources, expertise, and intellectual capital from the outset of an engagement, our refund policy differs from that of physical goods or standardized software products.
-
No Refunds for Services Already Rendered: As a general rule, fees paid for consulting hours, strategy assessments, research, analysis, vendor evaluations, integration work, and other services already performed and delivered are non-refundable. This is because the value of these services is realized through the expertise, insights, and labor provided.
-
No Refunds for Informational Content: Any information, articles, blog posts, or general guidance provided on the HubScope.ai website (HubScope.ai) is for informational purposes only and is provided free of charge unless explicitly stated otherwise. As such, no refunds are applicable to this informational content.
2. Client Engagements and Service Agreements
The specific terms regarding service delivery, project milestones, acceptance criteria, and any provisions for early termination or refunds will be detailed in the individual Service Agreement signed between HubScope.ai and each client.
-
Service Agreements Supersede This Policy: The terms of your specific Service Agreement shall supersede this general Refund Policy in the event of any conflict.
-
Project-Based Fees: For project-based engagements, fees are typically structured around milestones or deliverables. Refunds, if any, would be considered in the context of non-delivery of agreed-upon key deliverables or a material breach of the Service Agreement by HubScope.ai, as outlined within that agreement.
-
Retainer Agreements: For services provided under a retainer agreement, fees are generally paid in advance for a specified period or block of hours. Unused portions of a retainer may be addressed as per the terms of the specific Service Agreement, which might include provisions for carry-over or, in limited circumstances, a partial refund upon termination, less any work performed and any applicable early termination fees.
3. Circumstances Where a Refund or Credit May Be Considered
While our general policy is no refunds for services rendered, we are committed to client satisfaction and may consider a partial refund or service credit in the following limited circumstances, at our sole discretion:
-
Non-Delivery of Key Contractual Obligations: If HubScope.ai fails to deliver a critical component of the services explicitly agreed upon in a signed Service Agreement, and such failure is not due to client-caused delays, lack of cooperation, or unforeseen circumstances outside of our reasonable control (force majeure).
-
Significant Deficiencies in Service Quality: If there are demonstrable and significant deficiencies in the quality of the service delivered, directly attributable to HubScope.ai, that materially impact the value of the service as defined in the Service Agreement. Clients are expected to raise concerns about service quality promptly to allow us the opportunity to address and rectify them.
4. Process for Requesting a Refund or Discussing Concerns

-

5. Third-Party Vendor Solutions
HubScope.ai may recommend and assist with the integration of third-party vendor solutions.
-
Vendor Refund Policies: Any fees paid directly to third-party vendors for their software, licenses, or services are subject to that vendor's own refund policy. HubScope.ai is not responsible for refunding fees paid to third parties.
-
