Refund & Returns Policy

Last Updated: October 8, 2026

At Golden Pawprints, customer satisfaction is important to us. We want every customer to enjoy their Golden Retriever-inspired clothing and accessories.

This Refund & Returns Policy explains the conditions under which returns, refunds, exchanges, or replacements may be requested.

1. Eligibility for Returns

Because many of our products are custom-printed or made to order, returns are generally accepted only under specific circumstances, subject to applicable consumer protection laws.

You may request a return, refund, or replacement if:

• The product arrives damaged.
• You receive an incorrect item.
• The product has a manufacturing defect.
• The item differs significantly from its product description.

To request assistance, please contact us within 15 days of delivery and provide clear photographs showing the issue.

Our customer support team will review your request and determine the appropriate resolution.

2. Non-Returnable Items

The following situations are generally not eligible for discretionary returns or refunds:

• Incorrect size or color selected by the customer.
• Change of mind more than 12 hours after purchase.
• Personalized or custom-printed products without manufacturing defects.
• Items damaged due to improper use or handling.
• Products returned without prior authorization.

We strongly recommend reviewing the product description, size chart, and available options before placing an order.

These restrictions do not affect any statutory return, cancellation, or refund rights that may apply to your purchase.

3. Order Cancellations

Customers may request an order cancellation within 12 hours of placing an order.

• Cancellation requests must be submitted through our customer support email.
• If an order has already entered production or been dispatched, cancellation may not be possible.
• Approved cancellations will be refunded to the original payment method.

Please contact us as soon as possible if you need to modify or cancel an order.

Any mandatory cancellation rights under applicable law remain unaffected.

4. How to Request a Return or Refund

To initiate a return, refund, or replacement request, please contact our customer support team.

Email: [Enter your official Golden Pawprints support email]

Please include the following information:

• Your order number
• Full name and email address used during checkout
• A brief description of the issue
• Clear photographs of the damaged, defective, or incorrect product, if applicable

Our support team aims to respond within 24 business hours.

Please do not send products back before receiving return instructions from our support team.

5. Refund Approval & Processing

Once your refund request has been reviewed and approved:

• Refunds will generally be processed within 5 business days.
• Approved refunds will be issued to the original payment method.
• Additional processing time may be required by your bank or payment provider.
• You will receive confirmation once your refund has been initiated.

If a replacement is approved due to a damaged, defective, or incorrect product, a replacement item will be produced and shipped at no additional cost.

Where legally required, refunds will be provided within the applicable statutory deadlines.

6. Exchanges & Replacements

Golden Pawprints offers replacements for eligible orders when products arrive damaged, defective, or incorrect.

• Replacement requests must generally be submitted within 15 days after delivery.
• Supporting photographs may be required to verify the issue.
• Replacement products will be shipped with tracking information.
• Standard production and shipping timelines may apply.

Size exchanges or exchanges requested due to personal preference are generally unavailable for custom-printed products, except where required by law.

7. Sale & Promotional Items

Products purchased during sales, promotional campaigns, or special discount events are generally subject to the same eligibility requirements as regular-priced products.

Sale items are not eligible for discretionary returns due to a change of mind, unless otherwise stated.

However, customers may still request a refund or replacement for damaged, defective, or incorrect items, and all applicable statutory consumer rights remain in effect.

8. Return Shipping

If a physical return is required:

• Our customer support team will provide return instructions.
• Customers should not return items without prior authorization.
• Return shipping costs for approved damaged, defective, or incorrect product claims will be covered by Golden Pawprints where appropriate or required by law.
• Original shipping charges may be non-refundable for discretionary returns, where legally permitted.

In some cases, photographic evidence may be sufficient, and returning the product may not be necessary.

9. Late or Missing Refunds

If your refund has been approved but has not yet appeared in your account:

1. Check your bank account or credit card statement.
2. Contact your bank or payment provider to confirm processing status.
3. Allow additional time for the payment provider to complete the transaction.
4. If the issue remains unresolved, contact Golden Pawprints customer support.
