Universal Cancellation, Retainer Allocation & Absolute Refund Policy

Strict covenants regarding the irrevocable non-refundability of digital assets, client mobilization retainers, and severe liquidated chargeback penalties.

1. Categorical Non-Refundability of Digital and Educational Access Modules

Ūrdhv Ascens delivers digital visual curriculum booklets, specialized technological coursework, interactive reading engines, and digital design demonstrations.

You explicitly recognize and agree that all educational curriculum modules, visual booklets, downloadable guides, interactive viewer chapters, and digital learning assets hosted on Ūrdhv Ascens Viewer are provided on an irrevocable, immediate-consumption basis. Because digital learning materials constitute intangible, non-returnable digital goods that are fully exposed and consumed immediately upon display, ALL ACCESS GRANTED, SUBSCRIPTION ENROLLMENTS, ACTIVATION FEES, AND MONETARY REMITTANCES ARE STRICTLY, ABSOLUTELY, AND IRREVOCABLY NON-REFUNDABLE UNDER ALL CIRCUMSTANCES.

2. Bespoke Corporate Studio Engagements, Retainers, and Milestone Capital Commitments

For all enterprise design, high-performance web architecture, bespoke identity engineering, digital management, and commercial software development contracts:

(a) Non-Refundable Mobilization Retainers: All initial booking fees, project onboarding retainers, and upfront strategy deposits paid to Ūrdhv Ascens represent immediate capital commitments reserved for computational cloud provisioning, creative talent scheduling, architectural engineering allocation, and intellectual property synthesis. Such mobilization deposits are strictly 100% non-refundable from the millisecond of financial clearance.
(b) Irrevocable Milestone Disbursements: Payments remitted pursuant to project sprint milestones, deliverables, design sprints, or progress schedules become permanent, fully earned, and completely non-refundable immediately upon milestone sign-off, delivery of preliminary artifacts, or expiration of the client review window (defined as forty-eight (48) hours from transmission).
(c) Absence of Pro-Rata Allocations: In no event shall Ūrdhv Ascens calculate, provide, or honor any pro-rata, partial, or discretionary refunds for early project discontinuation or client restructuring.

3. Forfeiture of Remittances Upon Client Breach, Inactivity, or Convenience Termination

In the event that a client, corporate sponsor, or subscriber terminates a bespoke engagement for convenience, fails to respond to milestone approvals for seven (7) consecutive calendar days, or materially breaches the executed Statement of Work (SOW):
(i) All funds previously transmitted to Ūrdhv Ascens shall be permanently, unconditionally forfeited by the client and immediately retained by the Company as pre-agreed liquidated damages to offset lost opportunity costs, engineering standby, and operational disruption;
(ii) The Company is discharged from any obligation to deliver unfinished code repositories, raw design assets, or staging server access;
(iii) All outstanding contract balance sums remaining on the executed project schedule shall immediately become due and payable within five (5) business days.

4. Strict Prohibition of Unilateral Chargebacks, Reversals, and Compulsory Penalty Fees

You agree that you shall NOT initiate, file, request, or solicit any payment chargeback, merchant transaction dispute, automated reversal, or fraud claim through your credit card issuer, banking institution, or payment gateway processor (including UPI, Razorpay, Stripe, or PayPal) without first obtaining express, written, notarized authorization from the executive directorship of Ūrdhv Ascens.

ANY UNILATERAL CHARGEBACK, BANKING REVERSAL, OR UNAUTHORIZED TRANSACTION DISPUTE INITIATED BY YOU SHALL CONSTITUTE A MATERIAL BREACH OF CONTRACT AND DELIBERATE CIVIL FRAUD, SUBJECTING YOU TO:
(a) A mandatory administrative dispute defense penalty fee of 200% of the disputed transaction value, payable immediately to Ūrdhv Ascens;
(b) Full reimbursement of all banking dispute surcharges, collection agency retainers, forensic documentation costs, and statutory legal defense fees incurred by the Company;
(c) Immediate reporting of the fraudulent chargeback to credit rating agencies (CIBIL, Experian) and enterprise merchant fraud registries across the Republic of India and global banking networks.

5. Statutory Severability and Enforcement Under the Indian Contract Act, 1872

This Cancellation & Refund Policy is drafted and executed in strict alignment with Section 73 and Section 74 of the Indian Contract Act, 1872, governing pre-estimated liquidated damages and genuine pre-estimates of operational loss.

If any provision, paragraph, or clause of this Policy is adjudicated to be invalid, void, or unenforceable by an arbitral tribunal or court of competent jurisdiction in Jaipur, Rajasthan, such adjudication shall not impair or invalidate the remaining provisions of this Instrument, which shall remain in full force and effect to the maximum degree permissible under the laws of the Republic of India.
