Refund & Cancellation Policy

Sanctuary - Library Management Platform

Last updated: 15 August 2026. This policy covers Manager Sanctuary Pro subscription payments made to Sanctuary via in-app checkout, and explains how Student library-fee refunds are handled separately.

1. What this policy covers

2. Subscription Cancellation (Stop Autopay)

How to cancel auto-renew

  1. Open Sanctuary on the website or Android app → Profile / Your Plan → your Sanctuary Pro card
  2. Tap Stop Autopay
  3. Select your reason and confirm

What happens: Autopay is cancelled at period end. Your plan stays active until the end of the paid cycle. No further charges are made. When the period ends without renewal, your account moves to a 7-day grace window (read access; write actions locked), then expired (Subscription Wall) until you subscribe again.

Stopping autopay is not the same as a refund. Unused days in the current period are not prorated unless you qualify under Section 3.

One-time purchases

Checkout also offers a one-time (non–auto-renew) payment. No mandate is created. Access lasts until the paid period ends; there is nothing to cancel beyond not renewing. Refund eligibility still follows Section 3.

3. Refund Eligibility (Manager → Sanctuary)

5. Processing Timeline

6. Student Fee Payments (Library fees)

Important: Student membership payments (direct UPI + UTR, cash, Udhaari advance, or later dues collection) are not payments to Sanctuary’s SaaS. Sanctuary does not control or hold those funds for refund on the Student’s behalf.

For Student fee refunds:

If a Manager registered you on Udhaari and unpaid dues expire, the library may end membership and write off the remaining balance. That write-off is not a Sanctuary Pro refund and does not create a claim against Sanctuary.

7. Chargebacks & Disputes

If you raise a bank/UPI chargeback on a Sanctuary Pro payment without contacting us first, we may suspend the Manager account pending investigation. Please email the Sanctuary Support Team first - we aim to resolve eligible refund requests under this policy.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes may be notified in-app. The latest version is always available at this URL.
