Scope & Commercial Principles

Commercial Framework

This Refund Policy ("Refund Policy") governs all commercial transactions, software development contracts, retainer subscriptions, digital blueprint purchases, and consulting engagements entered into with Six Tenet LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company (Wyoming Secretary of State Filing ID: 2026-001987259), with registered offices at 30 N Gould St Ste N, Sheridan, WY 82801, USA ("Six Tenet", "Company", "we", "us", or "our").

Six Tenet delivers premium engineering services, bespoke software architectures, AI systems, and technical consulting. Because our work involves custom allocation of dedicated engineering talent, cloud infrastructure provisioning, and proprietary system design, refund eligibility is strictly delineated by service category as detailed below.

02

Custom Software & Milestone-Based Engagements

Fixed-Scope Projects

For custom software engineering, platform development, and bespoke automation builds governed by an executed Statement of Work (SOW) or Master Services Agreement (MSA):

1. Initial Discovery & Architectural Scoping Deposit

Initial deposits paid for technical discovery, system architecture blueprints, user-flow wireframes, and sprint scoping are non-refundable once engineering research, sprint planning, or architectural drafting has commenced. This deposit compensates Six Tenet for dedicated senior engineering time and proprietary analysis delivered during discovery.

2. Milestone Delivery & 14-Day Acceptance Window

Projects structured into progressive milestones are billed according to defined deliverables. Upon completion and deployment of a milestone to a staging or testing environment, the Client has a fourteen (14) calendar day acceptance review window ("Acceptance Window") to evaluate the deliverable against the technical specifications in the SOW.

  • If the Client approves the milestone or deploys it into production, the milestone fee is deemed earned and is non-refundable.
  • If no written notice of material defect is submitted within the 14-day window, the milestone is deemed accepted by operation of law.
3. Defect Remediation Warranty (Non-Monetary Remedy)

If a deliverable materially fails to conform to agreed specifications during the Acceptance Window, the Client's sole and exclusive initial remedy is for Six Tenet to remedy, debug, and correct the non-conforming items at zero additional engineering charge within a mutually agreed remediation sprint. A refund will only be evaluated if Six Tenet is demonstrably unable to cure the documented non-conformity.

03

Monthly Engineering Retainers & Fractional CTO Subscriptions

Recurring Retainers

For recurring fractional engineering, DevOps maintenance, and ongoing growth infrastructure retainers:

  • Advance Invoicing & Non-Refundable Active Cycles: Retainers are invoiced in advance of each thirty (30) day service period to reserve dedicated engineering availability. Fees paid for the active monthly billing cycle are non-refundable once the cycle has commenced.
  • Cancellation Notice Period: Clients may cancel ongoing retainer subscriptions by providing at least thirty (30) days advance written notice prior to the renewal date of the subsequent billing cycle. Services and support continue through the end of the paid cycle.
  • No Hour Rollovers or Cash Conversion: Retainer hours represent allocated engineering capacity reserved exclusively for the Client. Unused hours within a given monthly cycle do not roll over to subsequent months and cannot be redeemed for cash refunds, credits, or fee deductions.
04

Digital Blueprints, Frameworks & Downloadable Resources

Digital Products

Six Tenet may make available downloadable technical blueprints, code templates, Notion workspaces, or system design specifications:

Final Sale Policy on Digital Assets:

Due to the immediate delivery, digital nature, and irrevocable transmission of downloadable intellectual property (including automation workflows, JSON schemas, Notion workspaces, and code modules), all sales of digital resources are strictly final and non-refundable once access or download tokens have been generated.

05

Client Delays, Project Pauses & Dormancy

Operations

Efficient engineering execution requires timely collaboration and feedback. If a project is delayed due to Client inaction (e.g., failure to provide required API keys, staging access, content assets, or milestone feedback):

  • Inaction Exceeding 30 Days: If the Client fails to provide required assets or communications for more than thirty (30) consecutive calendar days, Six Tenet reserves the right to place the project in a "Dormant" status and reallocate engineering personnel.
  • Unspent Balances: Any unspent prepaid milestone funds will remain credited to the Client's account for up to six (6) months from the initial pause date. No cash refunds will be issued for dormant project delays caused by client inaction.
  • Reactivation: Reactivating a dormant project may require an administrative re-onboarding fee and schedule rescheduling based on current engineering capacity.
06

Dispute Escalation & Anti-Chargeback Covenant

Dispute Protocol

We take pride in our engineering rigor and commitment to client satisfaction. In the event of a commercial or delivery disagreement:

1. Mandatory Good-Faith Resolution Period

Prior to filing any payment dispute, credit card chargeback, or bank debit reversal, the Client agrees to provide formal written notice of grievance to billing@sixtenet.com and engage in a mandatory fourteen (14) business day good-faith executive conference with Six Tenet leadership to evaluate an amicable technical resolution or revised scope.

2. Bad-Faith Chargeback Indemnification

If a Client initiates an unauthorized or fraudulent chargeback without first completing the mandatory dispute resolution process:

  • Six Tenet will immediately suspend all active software development, hosting deployments, API licenses, and support services.
  • The Client agrees to pay all merchant processing dispute fees ($50+ per incident), administrative recovery fees, and reasonable attorney's fees incurred by Six Tenet in successfully disputing the chargeback.
  • Six Tenet reserves the right to report delinquent and fraudulent chargeback accounts to commercial credit reporting agencies and legal collection firms.
07

Approved Refund Processing & Currency Terms

Payout Mechanics

Where a monetary refund or partial credit is expressly approved in writing by an authorized officer of Six Tenet LLC:

  • Timeline: Approved refunds are submitted to our merchant processor within five to ten (5–10) business days following formal written execution of a Mutual Release Agreement.
  • Method of Reimbursement: Refunds are credited exclusively to the original payment method utilized for the transaction (e.g., original credit card, ACH bank transfer, or wire account).
  • Currency: All transactions and refunds are settled strictly in United States Dollars (USD). Six Tenet is not responsible for international exchange rate variations, conversion losses, or intermediary bank wire fees applied by the Client's financial institution.
