Last updated: November 2025
At Private Funnels, we strive to ensure that every customer has a positive experience with our digital products and services. This Return & Refund Policy outlines your rights and our procedures regarding refunds for purchases made on Private Funnels or any affiliated sales platform (the “Website”).

We operate in multiple jurisdictions (USA, UK, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand) and comply with the consumer protection laws applicable in each location. Your consumer protection rights are guaranteed by law and cannot be waived.
2. The 30-Day Satisfaction Guarantee (USA, Canada, Australia & New Zealand)
Who This Applies To
Customers purchasing from the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.
Your Right to a Refund

Your bank or payment provider may take an additional 1-5 business days to process the credit to your account

No Questions Asked
We believe in making the refund process simple and hassle-free. You do not need to provide extensive justification, return anything, or prove that you’ve used the product. Your satisfaction is our priority.
3. UK Customers – Your Legal Consumer Rights
Your Cooling-Off Period
Under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 and the Consumer Rights Act 2015, you have a 14-day cooling-off period from the date of purchase to change your mind.
Important: Digital Content and Your Right to Cancel
Before you download or access the product:
-
You have a full 14-day cooling-off period to request a cancellation and receive a refund
-
No questions will be asked
-
You do not need to provide a reason
When you choose to download or access the product:
By clicking “I want to download this product now” or proceeding to access the digital content, you are:
-
Explicitly consenting to immediate access to the product
-
Acknowledging that downloading/accessing the content begins the supply of the digital service
-
Accepting that once you have begun downloading or streaming the content, you waive your right to cancel under consumer law, as the supply of digital content is deemed complete
-
Understanding that if you proceed with downloading, you can still request a refund under our 30-Day Satisfaction Guarantee for quality or technical issues
Your Right to a Remedy for Faulty Products
If the digital product fails to meet the standards of:
-
Being of satisfactory quality
-
Being fit for the purpose marketed
-
Matching the description provided
You are entitled to a remedy. We will provide:
-
A refund (if the issue is substantial), or
-
A replacement or alternative solution
This right is in addition to our 30-Day Satisfaction Guarantee and is protected by law.
How to Request a UK Cancellation/Refund
-
Email support@privatefunnels.com within 14 days of purchase (or within 30 days under our Satisfaction Guarantee, whichever provides better protection)
-
Include your order number and the email used for purchase
-
State whether you are requesting a cancellation (not yet accessed) or a refund (quality/technical issue)
-
We will process your request within 5 business days and issue your refund within 1-5 business days after approval
4. Non-Refundable Situations (All Regions)
Refunds will not be granted in the following limited circumstances:
-
Refund request made after 30 days (or 14 days for UK customers not using our extended guarantee)
-
For products without a refund guarantee (if applicable – all our main products include the guarantee)
-
Unauthorized charges or fraud – contact us immediately; we will investigate and assist
-
Duplicate charges – contact us first; we will investigate and resolve
-
Change of mind after 14 days in UK (if you explicitly consented to download before the 14-day period)
Technical Issues Are Different
If you experience technical problems accessing your product (download failures, broken links, email delivery issues, etc.), contact our support team first at support@privatefunnels.com before requesting a refund. We will troubleshoot and resolve the issue at no charge. Only if we cannot resolve the technical issue within a reasonable timeframe will you be eligible for a refund.
5. Regional Compliance – Important Information
For Australian Customers
Your purchase is protected under the Australian Consumer Law (ACL). You are entitled to consumer guarantees that products are:
-
Of acceptable quality
-
Fit for a disclosed purpose
-
Matching the description provided
For digital products specifically, if the content fails to function as intended or is substantially faulty, you may request a refund within 30 days of purchase (or longer if the defect was not immediately apparent). The ACL provides these protections in addition to our 30-Day Satisfaction Guarantee.
For New Zealand Customers
Your purchase is protected under the Consumer Guarantees Act 2023. You are entitled to consumer guarantees that products are:
-
Of acceptable quality
-
Fit for a disclosed purpose
-
Matching the description provided
For digital downloads that are faulty or do not function as described, you may request a refund, replacement, or other remedy. These rights apply in addition to our 30-Day Satisfaction Guarantee.
For Canadian Customers
Your purchase is governed by the Sale of Goods Act (in Ontario and similar provincial laws). You are protected against:
-
Products that fail to serve their ordinary intended purpose
-
Products that do not match the description provided
-
Faulty or defective digital content
You may request a refund if the product fails to meet these standards. Canadian privacy rights under PIPEDA are also respected. These protections apply alongside our 30-Day Satisfaction Guarantee.
For USA Customers
While federal law does not mandate refunds for digital products, our 30-Day Satisfaction Guarantee provides comprehensive protection beyond standard requirements. Some states (California, Texas, New York, etc.) require clear disclosure of refund policies before purchase. This policy is displayed prominently on our website.

-
Provide accurate information: Ensure the email and payment method information provided at checkout is accurate
