KRATS REFUND AND CANCELLATION POLICY

Effective Date: 17 May 2026 Service Provider: KRATS Yazılım Faaliyetleri (Sole Proprietorship) — "KRATS"

This policy governs refunds, cancellation, and reimbursement for KRATS software subscriptions. Compliant with Turkish Consumer Protection Law, Distance Sales Regulation, and the EU Consumer Rights Directive (2011/83/EU).


1. PRODUCT NATURE

KRATS is a digital content / online service SaaS (Software as a Service) product:

  • No physical delivery
  • Instant digital access
  • Continuous updates + cloud support

Therefore "shipping" or "physical returns" do not apply — however, cooling-off period + cancellation rights are explained under EU Consumer Rights Directive Art. 9 and Distance Sales Regulation.


2. 14-DAY COOLING-OFF (EU + UK + TR Consumers)

2.1 Statutory Cooling-Off Right

For consumer Users (natural persons, not acting for business/professional purposes):

  • Cooling-off period: 14 days from agreement / first service access date
  • Effect: Full refund to card account within 14 business days
  • Method: Email to support@kratsonline.com → "Cooling-off request" subject, or via KEP

2.2 Exceptions to Cooling-Off (EU Directive Art. 16)

⚠️ NOTE: Cooling-off does NOT apply where:

  1. Service performance has started and User expressly waived the cooling-off right (consent at registration: "I waive my 14-day cooling-off period" checkbox)
  2. Digital content delivered and access/use began
  3. Fully paid service consumed entirely (e.g., one-day consultation)

2.3 KRATS Policy Preference

KRATS, more customer-friendly, applies:

  • Cooling-off accepted even if service used in first 14 days
  • Full refund (not pro-rata)
  • ✅ Usage data (patient records) can be exported before refund

Exceptions:

  • After 14 days, cooling-off no longer available
  • Trial / Free plan users not eligible for cooling-off (already free)

3. SUBSCRIPTION CANCELLATION

3.1 Cancellation Method

By User:

  1. Portal → Account Settings → "Cancel Subscription" button
  2. Or: Email to support@kratsonline.com requesting cancellation
  3. Or: Direct cancellation via Paddle payment portal

By KRATS (with 10 days' notice):

  • Non-compliance with these terms
  • 30-day payment delay
  • Legal obligation

3.2 Effect of Cancellation

Automatic renewal stops:

  • Cancellation effective immediately
  • Current subscription period continues with usage until end
  • Service ceases at period end
  • 30-day data export window (Section 6)

No early refund (general rule):

  • Monthly subscription cancellation mid-month → no refund for unused days
  • Annual subscription cancellation mid-year → no refund for remaining months (except 14-day cooling-off)

KRATS policy flexibility:

  • For annual subscriptions cancelled after 14 days with material reason (e.g., clinic closure), pro-rata refund may be granted (at KRATS's discretion)
  • Request via email; KRATS evaluates within 7 days

4. PARTIAL REFUND (PRO-RATA)

4.1 When Applicable

KRATS issues pro-rata refund in the following cases:

  1. SLA Breach — if uptime falls below 99.5% → pro-rata of affected period
  2. Material Feature Removal — if a critical plan feature is removed, User may terminate → refund of remaining period
  3. Annual Subscription Early Cancellation (discretionary) — KRATS may grant in case of material reason (e.g., clinic closure)

4.2 Calculation

Pro-rata refund = (Annual fee × Remaining months) / 12 months

Example: 10,000 TRY annual subscription, cancelled after 4 months → pro-rata refund = 10,000 × 8/12 = 6,667 TRY


5. NON-REFUNDABLE CASES

KRATS does NOT refund:

  • ❌ 14-day cooling-off expired + no early cancellation reason
  • ❌ Account closed for terms-of-service violation (Section 5 — TOS)
  • ❌ Trial / promotional periods
  • ❌ "I don't like it" subjective reason (after 14 days)
  • ❌ Third-party vendor outages (Cloudflare, Paddle, etc. — KRATS not responsible)
  • ❌ Force majeure (earthquake, war, epidemic)

6. DATA EXPORT AND DELIVERY

6.1 Post-Cancellation Data Export

After cancellation / refund, within 30 days User may:

  • Download patient records in JSON or CSV format
  • Receive clinic records as PDF report
  • Download billing records as PDF

6.2 Delivery Method

  • Portal → "Download my data" — instant zip file
  • Or: Email request to support@kratsonline.com — delivered within 7 days

6.3 Erasure After 30 Days

After 30 days, KRATS:

  • Deletes R2 backups
  • Deletes cloud-side telemetry
  • Provides erasure certificate on request
  • Local SQLCipher data on Clinic's device remains User's responsibility

7. REFUND TIMING AND PAYMENT CHANNEL

7.1 Refund Timeline

  • Approval: 3 business days from request → KRATS evaluation
  • Processing: 7-14 business days from approval → refund to card/bank
  • Total: From request to refund, max 14 business days

7.2 Refund Channel

7.3 Refund Fees

8. NO LIQUIDATED DAMAGES

  • No early cancellation penalty
