The Customer will not use the fact that backlinks were placed on their non-preferred subdomain or subfolder to withdraw from this Contract or request a refund. Refunds will only be permitted when articles have been placed on incorrect domains.
17. Basis of sale for articles that are deleted post-sale: the Customer accepts that there is a minute risk that the pages containing their backlinks may be removed by blog administrators.

21. Basis of sale for article niche, topic, quality and relevancy: the Customer accepts that all articles written are created to meet the publisher’s or blog’s requirements only, not the Customer’s requirements or requests. Therefore, the client will not use article relevancy, niche, topic or quality as a reason to withdraw from this Contract or request a refund.

22. We intend that these Terms and Conditions apply only to a Contract entered into by you as a Customer where we, the Supplier and you the Customer, enter the Contract after you make payment for Services from the Supplier. The Contract is not a contract for which an offer was made by the Customer via Email, telephone, in-person, SMS or Whatsapp. If this is not the case, you must tell us, so that we can provide you with a different contract with terms which are more appropriate to you and which might, in some way, be better for you, e.g. by giving cancellation rights pursuant to consumer protection law.

Refund Policy

23. Should an article be de-indexed by Google or removed for any reason, our refund policy is as follows: (1) if the article is removed within 45 days of the order being confirmed, a full refund will be given; (2) if the article is removed between 45-180 days of the order being confirmed, no refund will be given but the article will be migrated to a website of similar domain authority (+/- 10 DA); (3) if articles are removed beyond 180 days of purchasing, we are not obliged to any refund or replacements, however we will likely offer an in-kind replacement to a website of similar domain authority (+/- 10 DA) to maintain good business relations.
