Effective Date: April 18, 2026

Last Updated: April 18, 2026

This Refund Policy & Cancellation Policy applies to HRMS4U, a cloud-based HRMS SaaS platform operated by DesignzIndia.

This Policy explains how subscription cancellations, renewals, billing disputes, refunds, and account closures are handled for HRMS4U customers.

By subscribing to HRMS4U, you agree to this Policy in addition to our Terms & Conditions.

1. Subscription Plans

HRMS4U may offer the following plans:

  • Monthly Subscription Plans
  • Yearly Subscription Plans
  • Custom Enterprise Plans
  • Add-on Services
  • 14-Day Free Trial (where applicable)

Plan availability may vary based on business requirements and commercial agreements.

2. Free Trial Policy

We may offer a 14-day free trial for eligible users.

During the trial period:

  • No obligation to continue unless converted to a paid plan
  • Features may be limited
  • Trial accounts may be suspended or deleted after expiry
  • Support may be limited

No refund applies to free trial periods.

3. Cancellation Policy

3.1 Customer-Initiated Cancellation

Customers may cancel their subscription at any time before the next billing cycle.

Cancellation may be requested through:

  • Account dashboard (if enabled)
  • Email request
  • Written commercial communication

Cancellation stops future renewals but does not automatically generate a refund for the current billing cycle unless specifically approved.

3.2 Monthly Plans

If a monthly plan is cancelled:

  • Access generally continues until the end of the current paid monthly period
  • No partial month refunds unless required by law or approved by us

3.3 Yearly Plans

If an annual plan is cancelled:

  • Access generally continues until the end of the paid annual term
  • Mid-term cancellations are usually non-refundable unless otherwise agreed

3.4 Enterprise / Custom Contracts

Custom contracts may include separate cancellation clauses, notice periods, migration obligations, or termination fees as agreed in writing.

4. Auto-Renewal Policy

Unless otherwise stated, subscriptions may renew automatically at the end of each billing cycle.

To avoid renewal charges, customers should cancel before the renewal date.

Failure to cancel before renewal may result in charges for the next term.

5. Refund Policy

5.1 General Rule

Because HRMS4U is a software subscription service with immediate digital access, subscription payments are generally non-refundable once the billing cycle has started.

5.2 Eligible Refund Situations

Refunds may be considered in the following circumstances:

  • Duplicate payment charged accidentally
  • Billing system error
  • Unauthorized duplicate renewal verified by us
  • Failure to provision paid service due to our error
  • Legal obligations requiring refund

All refunds are subject to review.

5.3 Non-Refundable Situations

Refunds are generally not available for:

  • Change of mind
  • Partial use or no use of service
  • Failure to cancel before renewal
  • Business closure or internal restructuring
  • Customer-side technical limitations
  • Feature misunderstandings clearly disclosed beforehand
  • Training/setup time already delivered
  • Custom development work started or completed

5.4 Trial-to-Paid Conversion

If a customer upgrades after a free trial, the paid subscription begins immediately or on selected billing date.

Once billing begins, normal refund rules apply.

6. Setup Fees / Custom Work / Integrations

Separate charges for the following are generally non-refundable once work begins:

  • Custom development
  • Data migration
  • White-label branding
  • API integrations
  • Biometric attendance integrations

  • Reason for request
  • Relevant screenshots/documents (if any)

  • Thereafter, production data may be deleted
