All products, except Trials, are backed by a 30-day money back guarantee as stated on the website from which you purchased. hemingandwest.com has the right to change the refund policy at any time, but such changes will be reflected on future orders not past orders.
Guarantee starts from, and includes, the purchase date. Purchase date and time is determined based on Central Time in the USA at the time of your purchase. Refund requests or products returned after the refund policy has expired are not subject to a refund and a refund will not be issued.
Physical products returned after the policy has expired may be shipped back to the customer.
For multi-payment options, only the first payment is refundable and only within the first 30 days of the multiple payment term. Subsequent payments are non-refundable but, of course, if you refund within the first 30 days, your card will no longer be billed for subsequent payments.
For any product refund, a refund request must be sent to our office, in writing, in order for a refund to be processed.

Refund of a physical product (like a book or DVD) also requires return of the physical product, to a U.S. address we designate, at your own expense.
