Cancellation policy
Last updated: September 2026
The short version
- Orders are final once processing begins.
- A cancellation request can be sent immediately after ordering, but approval is not guaranteed.
- The website's order status does not show the internal processing stage.
- If the store cancels an order, the Customer is refunded in full with no deductions.
1. General
- Orders are final: All orders are considered final once placed and entering processing.
- No guarantee: Cancellation is not guaranteed at any stage.
- Discretion: Cancellation requests are reviewed at the store's discretion.
2. When Cancellation Is No Longer Possible
Orders cannot be cancelled once fulfilment processing has started, including:
- Product preparation
- Filling or assembly
- Packaging
- Label creation
- Shipment preparation or dispatch to the carrier
The order status shown on the website may not reflect the internal fulfilment stage. Internal processing status determines cancellation eligibility.
3. Requesting a Cancellation
- When to ask: Immediately after placing the order, to team@elkhaldistudio.com with the order number.
- Approval: Not guaranteed. Requests received after processing has begun are not eligible and will not be reviewed.
- If approved: Payment processing fees may be deducted, and any refund is issued after those deductions.
4. Cancellation by the Store
The store may cancel any order, including for:
- Product unavailability
- Inventory errors
- Shipping restrictions
- Operational limitations
- Suspected fraud or payment concerns
Where the store cancels an order, the Customer receives a full refund with no deductions.
5. Payment Clearance
- Confirmation: An order is not confirmed until payment has been received and cleared in full.
- Failed payment: If payment fails, is reversed, or is rejected, the order may not be processed.
- Held funds: Temporary authorisations and held funds are handled by the Customer's payment provider, not the store.
6. Contact
Cancellation requests go to team@elkhaldistudio.com. Please include the order number.
7. Acknowledgment
By placing an order, the Customer accepts that:
- Orders become final once processing begins.
- Cancellation is not guaranteed and is at the store's discretion.
- Approved cancellations may be subject to applicable fees.
Nothing in this policy removes or limits any right the Customer holds that cannot legally be excluded.
