Refund & Cancellation Policy
Effective Date: 02/08/2024
Thank you for choosing to engage with Smaaash. Our Refund and Cancellation Policy is designed to ensure clarity and transparency, in compliance with the Consumer Protection Act, 2019. Please review the following Policy carefully.
​
1. No-Refund Policy for Tournaments
​
1.1 Transparency and Acceptance
By registering for our tournament, you acknowledge and agree that all entry fees and related payments are non-refundable. This policy is clearly communicated during the registration process to ensure that all participants are fully informed before committing.
​
1.2 Operational Costs
Your entry fee covers various operational costs of the tournament, including venue, staffing, technology, and prize pools. Once these costs are incurred, they are non-recoverable, which necessitates our no-refund policy.
​​
1.3 Fairness and Prize Pool Integrity
The prize pool's integrity relies on the total number of participants. Issuing refunds would reduce the prize pool, potentially disadvantaging other competitors. Therefore, no refunds will be issued, except in the specific cases outlined below.
​
1.4 Exceptions for Unforeseen Circumstances
While we maintain a strict no-refund policy, we recognize the following exceptions:
-
Event Cancellation or Significant Alteration: If the tournament is canceled or significantly altered due to reasons within our control, registered participants will be eligible for a full refund or alternative compensation, as mutually agreed upon.
-
Service Not As Described: If the tournament does not meet the description provided at the time of registration, participants may request a refund. This request will be processed in accordance with the Consumer Protection Act, 2019.
​​
1.5 Force Majeure
In the event of cancellation due to unforeseen circumstances beyond our control (such as natural disasters, government restrictions, or other force majeure events), refunds will not be provided. However, we will strive to offer alternative solutions, such as rescheduling the event.
​
1.6 Dispute Resolution
For any concerns or disputes regarding this policy or the tournament, please contact our support team as mentioned below. We are committed to addressing your issues fairly and promptly, in line with the Consumer Protection Act, 2019.
​
2. Refund and Cancellation Policy for Other Services or Products​
2.1 Cancellation Request
For bookings or orders related to services or products other than tournaments, you may request a cancellation within 48 hours of the booking or ordering.
