Refund Policy

Last Updated: October 11, 2026

Changes in this version (October 11, 2026): After a refund or chargeback your license now also ends in the Software: it checks a signed list of ended licenses when it starts and once a day while it is open, and switches to read-only access to your saved reports the next time it receives a list that includes your license. Copies that are offline keep working until they next check in (Sections 6, 8). Earlier changes (October 10, 2026): The refund window is 14 days and 90% of what you paid is returned. Corrected what happens to your license after a refund or chargeback: the Software checks your license key on your device and cannot be switched off remotely, so the license ends by agreement and you agree to stop using and uninstall the Software (Sections 5, 6, 8).

We want you to be confident buying Answerhound. This policy explains exactly what happens if you want your money back.

1. 14-Day Refund Window

If Answerhound is not a fit, you may request a refund within 14 calendar days of your original purchase date. No explanation required. The 14-day window applies whether or not you have activated your license and begins on the date your payment is processed through Square — not the date you install the software.

Requests submitted after the 14-day window will not be approved except as described in §4.

2. Refund Amount — 90% Return, 10% Retained

Approved refunds are issued as follows:

Examples:

You paidReturnedRetained
$1,000 (standard)$900$100
$800 (first-50 pack)$720$80
$800 (standard + PZ200)$720$80
$600 (pack + PZ200)$540$60

The 10% is calculated on the amount you actually paid, not the face price of the license. Promotional discounts are honored — you are never charged retroactive value for a code you redeemed.

Refunds are issued to the original payment method on file with Square. Processing time is typically 5–7 business days depending on your bank or card issuer.

3. How to Request a Refund

Send an email to hello@jkcreative.store with:

That is all we need. You will receive a confirmation reply within one business day acknowledging your request and the refund amount.

4. After 14 Days

We do not offer a guaranteed refund after the 14-day window has passed. If something has gone seriously wrong — for example, a defect that we cannot reasonably fix, or a material change to the product that degrades its core value — reach out at hello@jkcreative.store and describe the situation. We handle post-14-day requests case by case and will do our best to be fair. Outside the 14-day window this is discretionary on our side, but it does not limit any rights you may have under Washington consumer-protection law (RCW 19.86) or any mandatory consumer-protection law that applies where you reside.

5. What Happens When a Refund Is Processed

Once your refund request is confirmed:

  1. License ends. Your license ends when we issue the refund. By requesting a refund, you agree to stop using Answerhound and to uninstall it, and delete your license key, from all of your devices.
  2. Refund issued. We initiate the 90% refund through Square to your original payment method within 5–7 business days. Depending on your bank or card issuer, the credit may take additional time to appear on your statement.
  3. App behavior. See Section 8 for what your installed copy does after your license ends.

6. Chargebacks

We strongly prefer that you email us before filing a chargeback with your bank or card issuer. We resolve virtually every refund request quickly and without involving the bank. A chargeback creates friction for you, adds card-network fees on our side, and typically takes longer than our direct refund process. Our door is always open at hello@jkcreative.store before you escalate.

If you file a chargeback without contacting us first:

Nothing in this section limits your rights under card-network rules or applicable consumer-protection law.

7. Bundle and Promotional Purchases

If you purchased Answerhound as part of a bundle or alongside a ProspectZero-related promotion, the same 14-day window and the same 90/10 structure apply. The refund for any component of a bundle is calculated as follows:

90% × [(component's individual list price ÷ sum of individual list prices of all bundled components) × amount paid for the bundle]

Example. You paid $1,200 for a bundle containing Answerhound ($1,000 list) and ProspectZero ($500 list). Total list = $1,500. If you refund only Answerhound, your allocated portion is ($1,000 / $1,500) × $1,200 = $800, and your refund is 90% of that = $720. The remaining $80 is retained as the operations and processing fee. The $400 attributable to ProspectZero is handled under its own refund window.

If all components of the bundle are refunded within their respective windows, you receive 90% of the total amount you paid for the bundle.

8. When a License Ends

When your license ends (after a refund, a chargeback resolved in your favor, or termination under the EULA):
