Refund and Returns Policy
Effective Date: October 29, 2026
We want you to be satisfied with your purchase. This Refund and Return Policy explains the conditions under which products purchased through our website may be returned, exchanged, or refunded.
1. Return Window
Customers may request a return within 30 days of delivery. To qualify for a return, the request must be submitted within this period and the product must meet the applicable return conditions outlined below.
2. Return Eligibility by Product Type
- Books: Books must be returned in their original condition, without excessive wear, damage, or missing pages. Used, marked, highlighted, or damaged books may not qualify for a refund unless they arrived in that condition or applicable law requires otherwise.
- Clothing: Clothing must be unworn, unwashed, and undamaged, with original tags attached where applicable. Items showing signs of wear, washing, alterations, or damage caused after delivery may not qualify for a refund. Undergarments and other hygiene-sensitive items may be non-returnable where permitted by law and clearly disclosed before purchase.
- Electronics: Electronics must be returned in good condition, with included accessories, cables, manuals, and original packaging where applicable. Products must not have damage caused by misuse, unauthorized modifications, or improper handling after delivery. Items with missing components or signs of misuse may be subject to a return assessment, consistent with applicable law. Products advertised as defective, damaged, or incorrectly supplied are handled under Section 6.
3. How to Initiate a Return
To request a return, contact us at success@globalaviationtrainingacademy.com within 30 days of delivery. Please provide: Your order number. The product you wish to return. The reason for the return. Photographs of any damage or defect, if applicable. Please wait for return instructions before shipping the product. Items should be securely packaged to prevent damage during transit.
4. Refunds
Once your returned product has been received and inspected, we will notify you whether the refund has been approved. Approved refunds will be issued to the original payment method, generally within 5–10 business days after approval. Additional processing time may be required by your bank or payment provider. Original shipping charges are generally non-refundable for customer-requested returns, except where otherwise required by law or where the return results from our error. If a returned item does not meet the applicable return conditions, we will contact you regarding the available options, subject to applicable law.
5. Return Shipping Costs
Customers are responsible for return shipping costs for eligible returns due to a change of mind, incorrect size selection, or other customer preference. We recommend using a trackable shipping service and retaining proof of shipment. Customers are responsible for return packages they arrange and ship, including loss or damage in transit, except where applicable law provides otherwise. If a product arrives defective, damaged, or different from what was ordered, we will work with the customer to arrange an appropriate resolution, including return shipping arrangements where applicable.
6. Damaged, Defective, or Incorrect Products
If you receive a damaged, defective, or incorrect product, contact us as soon as possible at success@globalaviationtrainingacademy.com, preferably within 7 days of delivery. Please include your order number, a description of the issue, and photographs when available. After reviewing the issue, we may offer a replacement, repair, refund, or another appropriate resolution, depending on the circumstances and applicable law. Customers will not be required to bear return shipping costs when reimbursement or prepaid return shipping is required by law. Nothing in this policy limits any rights or remedies available under applicable consumer protection laws.
7. Exchanges
Exchanges are subject to availability. Contact our customer service team to request an exchange before sending an item back. If the requested replacement is unavailable, we may offer a refund or another suitable resolution. Customers are responsible for exchange-related shipping costs unless otherwise agreed or required by law.
8. Non-Returnable Products
Unless otherwise required by law, the following products may be excluded from returns: Products clearly identified as final sale before purchase. Personalized or custom-made products. Clothing or other items that cannot be returned for hygiene reasons, where permitted by law and disclosed before purchase. Products damaged through misuse or unauthorized modification after delivery. Gift cards and digital products, where permitted by law. This section does not exclude valid claims for defective, misrepresented, or incorrectly supplied products.
9. Order Cancellations
If you need to cancel an order, contact us as soon as possible. We will attempt to cancel it before processing or shipment. Orders that have already shipped may need to be returned under this policy. Any applicable statutory cancellation rights remain unaffected.
10. Policy Updates
We reserve the right to update this policy periodically. Updates will be published on this page with a revised effective date. Changes will not override rights that customers have already acquired under applicable law.
