DISPUTE RESOLUTION
Overview

In case the Company rejects the return request of the Buyer, and Buyer raises a dispute, then Company will try to mediate and resolve the dispute between both the parties. If the dispute is resolved in favour of the Buyer, a refund is provided once the product is returned to the Company. If the dispute is settled in favour of the Company, the Buyer is not entitled to any refund.
Buyer Protection Program
