Here’s a Cancellation Policy draft for BertMarket.com, which can be added to your website to ensure clarity for customers regarding the process of canceling an order. This draft is designed to align with typical e-commerce practices and can be customized to fit your business model. I also recommend ensuring the policy complies with Zambia’s consumer rights regulations.
At BertMarket.com, we strive to provide a seamless shopping experience, including a simple process for order cancellations. However, since many of our orders are processed quickly, we ask that you read our cancellation policy carefully to understand how cancellations are handled.
If you wish to cancel an order, please contact us as soon as possible by using one of the following methods:
Email: bertzambiaservices@gmail.com
Phone: +260965382084
You must provide your order number and contact details when requesting a cancellation.
Before Shipment: If you wish to cancel an order before it has been shipped, we can usually accommodate the cancellation request. We aim to process cancellations within 24 hours of receiving the request.
After Shipment: Once an order has been shipped, we cannot guarantee cancellation. If the order has already been dispatched or is in transit, you will need to follow the returns process upon receiving the product.
If an item in your order is out of stock, or we are unable to fulfill your order for any reason, we will notify you promptly. In this case, we will offer you the option to:
Cancel the entire order and receive a full refund.
Choose an alternative product or receive store credit.
If your order is successfully canceled, you will be issued a full refund to your original payment method, including any applicable taxes or fees.
Refund Timeline: Refunds for canceled orders are typically processed within 7-10 business days after the cancellation is confirmed.
Shipping Fees: Shipping fees are non-refundable, except in cases where the cancellation is due to an error on our part (e.g., wrong item shipped, damaged product).
If you’ve ordered a personalized or custom-made item, cancellations are not possible once the item is in production. These items are non-refundable and non-exchangeable unless the product is defective or damaged.
If you request to cancel an order after it has been dispatched or is already in transit, we may not be able to cancel the order. In this case, we recommend refusing delivery or following the returns policy upon receiving the product.
Refused Deliveries: If you refuse delivery of a package, the item will be returned to us. Once it is returned to our warehouse, we will process a refund or exchange, minus any applicable shipping or handling fees.
At BertMarket.com, we currently do not allow modifications to an order once it has been placed (e.g., changing the quantity, color, or product type). If you need to make a change, we suggest canceling the order and placing a new one.

We may update our cancellation policy from time to time to reflect changes in our processes or legal requirements. We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about any changes.
Consumer Rights: This cancellation policy complies with Zambian consumer rights laws, ensuring that you, as a customer, are protected in the event of order cancellations, returns, or refunds.
Order Confirmation: Always review your order confirmation carefully. If there are any issues, please contact us immediately to avoid delays in processing.
This Cancellation Policy ensures transparency and sets clear expectations for your customers. If you’re dealing with high-volume orders or shipping, this process helps avoid confusion and ensures smooth communication between your team and the customers.
