Thank you for visiting LeanBiome. This Refund Policy explains how refunds are handled in connection with leanbiome.com (the “Site”).
LeanBiome is an informational and product review website. We do not manufacture, store, sell, or ship physical products. Any purchase made after clicking a link on our Site is completed through an independent third-party seller. Because of this, refund eligibility depends on the type of purchase involved:
- Purchases completed on third-party websites
- Any digital products or services sold directly by LeanBiome (if offered)
1. No Refunds for Third-Party Purchases
Most products mentioned or recommended on LeanBiome are sold by external companies.
When you click a link on our Site and complete a purchase on another website, that transaction occurs solely between you and the third-party seller.
- All refunds, returns, exchanges, and cancellations are governed by the refund policy of the seller or platform where you placed your order
- LeanBiome does not have access to your payment details, order records, or shipping information
- We cannot approve, process, or issue refunds for third-party purchases
To request a refund for a product purchased through a link on our Site, please contact the seller or platform directly and follow their official refund procedure.
2. Refunds for Direct Digital Purchases (If Offered)
From time to time, LeanBiome may offer digital products or services directly through leanbiome.com, such as guides, downloadable resources, or premium content.
Refunds for these direct purchases only may be considered under the following conditions:
- The refund request is submitted within 14 days of the purchase date
- The digital product has not been fully accessed, excessively downloaded, or completely consumed
- Valid proof of purchase is provided, including an order ID or payment confirmation
LeanBiome reserves the right to review each request individually and may decline refunds where there is evidence of full use, sharing, or misuse of the digital product.
3. How to Request a Refund (Direct Purchases Only)
If you purchased a digital product directly from LeanBiome and believe you qualify for a refund, please follow these steps:
- Email contact@leanbiome.com with the subject line “Refund Request”
- Include the following information:
- Your full name
- Email address used during checkout
- Order or transaction ID
- Date of purchase
- A brief explanation of your refund request
Our team typically reviews refund requests within 5–7 business days.
If approved, refunds are issued to the original payment method within 7–10 business days, depending on your payment provider. If a request is denied, you will be notified by email.
4. Non-Refundable Situations
Refunds will not be issued in the following cases:
- Products or services purchased through third-party websites, even if accessed via a link on LeanBiome
- Digital products that have been fully accessed, downloaded multiple times, or clearly used in full
- Refund requests submitted more than 14 days after purchase for direct digital products
- Orders involving suspected fraud, abuse, chargeback manipulation, or violation of our Terms and Conditions
5. Affiliate Links and Earnings Disclosure
LeanBiome uses affiliate links. This means we may earn a commission if you click a link and make a purchase, at no additional cost to you.
Affiliate commissions do not affect refund decisions made by third-party sellers. All refund, return, and exchange decisions for affiliate purchases are handled entirely by the merchant or platform where the purchase was completed.
LeanBiome is not responsible for the delivery, quality, or refund outcomes of third-party products or services.
6. Changes to This Refund Policy
LeanBiome may update this Refund Policy periodically to reflect changes in legal requirements, offerings, or business practices.
- The “Last Updated” date at the top of this page will reflect any revisions
- Continued use of the Site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy
We recommend reviewing this page occasionally to stay informed.
