This document describes our Terms Of Service and Acceptable Use Policy.
– IMPORTANT — PLEASE READ –
Refunds
Running a business, whether online or offline, requires an investment. You are NOT guaranteed any results from your efforts, or ours. Your response to your marketing efforts and website will depend highly on your product, your methods, and specifically your website design for online marketing campaigns. KNR IT Solutions, LLC ONLY provides the template, hosting, dedicated servers and/or VPS for your website and/or blogs, not the content or marketing.
Therefore, because of the nature of this business we cannot offer refunds for services performed on your behalf. Obviously we strive to get you the best results possible, but that doesn’t always happen. Should there be any issues at all with our services, all we ask is that if this type of situation arises, you give us a chance to “make things right”.
ANY company that says they can guarantee you specific results (or any results at all), is lying to you plain and simple … run as far and as fast as you can in the other direction.
