Thank you for visiting Eco-Friendly Products for Everyday Use. This Refund Policy explains our policies regarding refunds, cancellations, and related matters for services and products associated with our website ecofriendlyproductsforeverydayuse.com (the "Site").

1. Nature of Our Services

• Free educational blog content and articles
• Product reviews and recommendations
• Sustainable living tips and guides
• Newsletter subscriptions (free)
• Community engagement opportunities

As we do not currently sell physical products or paid services directly through our Site, traditional refund policies regarding product purchases do not typically apply.

2. Third-Party Product Purchases

2.1 Affiliate Links and Recommendations

Our Site may contain affiliate links and product recommendations that direct you to third-party retailers and sellers. When you click on these links and make purchases:

• The transaction occurs directly between you and the third-party seller
• We are not a party to the transaction
• We do not process payments or handle shipping
• We do not have access to your payment information

2.2 Third-Party Refund Policies

Refunds, returns, exchanges, and customer service for products purchased through third-party links are governed by the respective seller's policies, not ours. We recommend:

• Carefully reading the seller's refund and return policy before making any purchase
• Saving your order confirmation and receipts
• Contacting the seller directly for any issues with your order
• Reviewing product descriptions, specifications, and customer reviews

2.3 Our Role and Limitations

While we strive to recommend reputable products and sellers, we:

• Cannot guarantee the quality, safety, or legality of products sold by third parties
• Are not responsible for product defects, shipping delays, or seller practices
• Cannot process refunds or returns on behalf of third-party sellers
• Cannot be held liable for disputes between you and third-party sellers

If you experience issues with a product purchased through a link on our Site, please contact the seller directly. If you believe our review was misleading or inaccurate, please contact us so we can investigate and update our content if necessary.
