Refund Policy

At Green Lantern Pizza, we are committed to delivering fresh, high-quality food and an exceptional customer experience. We understand that issues may occasionally arise, and this Refund Policy outlines your rights and our procedures when a refund, exchange, or cancellation is needed. Please read this policy carefully before placing an order through our website at greenlaternpizza-meal.click.

1. Our Commitment to Customer Satisfaction

Green Lantern Pizza takes pride in the quality of every pizza, meal, and food item we prepare and deliver. Every order is made with care using fresh ingredients. However, we recognize that there may be circumstances where a refund or correction is warranted. This policy has been established in accordance with applicable United States consumer protection laws, including the Federal Trade Commission Act (FTC Act), and any relevant state-level consumer protection regulations.

By placing an order on our website or through our ordering platform, you agree to the terms outlined in this Refund Policy. We encourage you to review your order carefully before confirming your purchase.

2. Eligibility Conditions for Refunds

A refund request may be considered eligible under the following circumstances:

• Incorrect Order: You received a food item or order that differs significantly from what you ordered (e.g., wrong toppings, wrong size, wrong items delivered).
• Food Quality Issues: The food delivered was visibly spoiled, undercooked, contaminated, or otherwise unfit for consumption upon receipt.
• Missing Items: Part of your order was missing and not delivered.
• Significant Delivery Delay: Your order was delivered significantly later than the estimated delivery time quoted at checkout, causing the food to be cold or inedible upon arrival.
• Duplicate Charges: You were charged more than once for the same order due to a technical or payment processing error.
• Order Not Delivered: Your order was never received and there is no confirmed delivery record on our system.

3. Timeframes for Refund Requests

To ensure timely resolution, refund requests must be submitted within the following timeframes:

Requests submitted outside these timeframes may not be eligible for a refund. We strongly encourage customers to inspect their orders immediately upon receipt and contact us promptly if any issues are identified.

4. Non-Refundable Items and Services

Certain items and circumstances are not eligible for refunds. These include, but are not limited to:

• Orders where the customer simply changed their mind after the food was prepared or delivered.
• Food items that have been partially or fully consumed and the complaint is not related to quality or safety.
• Incorrect orders where the customer provided incorrect information during the ordering process (e.g., wrong delivery address, incorrect customization instructions).
• Delays caused by circumstances beyond our control, including severe weather, traffic disruptions, or third-party delivery carrier issues.
• Promotional or discounted items that were clearly marked as non-refundable at the time of purchase.
• Gift cards or store credit purchases.
• Delivery fees, service fees, or platform fees, unless the refund is due to a confirmed non-delivery of the entire order.
• Orders placed through third-party delivery platforms (such as DoorDash, Uber Eats, Grubhub, etc.) — these must be addressed directly with the respective platform and are subject to their individual refund policies.

5. How to Request a Refund (Step-by-Step)

To request a refund from Green Lantern Pizza, please follow these steps:

1. Step 1 — Gather Your Information: Have your order number, order date, and payment confirmation ready. If applicable, take clear photographs of any incorrect, missing, or damaged food items.
2. Step 2 — Contact Us: Reach out to our customer support team as soon as possible via email at [email protected] or through our website at greenlaternpizza-meal.click.
3. Step 3 — Provide Details: In your message or contact form, include your full name, order number, the specific issue you experienced, and any supporting photos or evidence.
4. Step 4 — Await Review: Our customer service team will review your request and respond within 1–2 business days. We may contact you with additional questions or to request further documentation.
5. Step 5 — Resolution: Once your request has been reviewed and approved, we will notify you of the refund decision and the method by which the refund will be issued.
6. Step 6 — Confirmation: You will receive a confirmation email once the refund has been processed on our end. Processing times will vary depending on your payment method (see Section 6).

6. Refund Processing Times by Payment Method

Once a refund has been approved, the time it takes to appear in your account will depend on your original payment method:

Please note that Green Lantern Pizza initiates refunds promptly upon approval, but we have no control over the processing times of individual banks, credit card companies, or payment processors. If you do not see your refund after the stated timeframe, please contact your financial institution before reaching out to us.

7. Partial Refunds

In certain situations, a partial refund may be issued rather than a full refund. Partial refunds may be granted in the following circumstances:

• Only specific items within a multi-item order were incorrect or missing, while the rest of the order was satisfactory.
• The food quality issue affected only a portion of your order.
• A discount or promotional code was applied to the original order, and only the net amount paid for the affected item(s) is eligible for refund.
• The order was partially consumed before a quality complaint was raised, and our team determines that a full refund is not warranted based on the evidence provided.

The amount of a partial refund will be calculated based on the price paid for the specific items or services affected, minus any applicable discounts, fees, or credits already applied. Our customer service team will communicate the proposed partial refund amount clearly and allow you to accept or dispute it.

8. Cancellation Policy

Because our food is freshly prepared upon order, cancellations are subject to strict time limitations.

8.1 Online Orders

• Orders may be cancelled within 5 minutes of placement, provided that food preparation has not yet begun. A full refund will be issued in this case.
• Once food preparation has started, cancellations are generally not accepted, and no refund will be issued.
• To request an order cancellation, contact us immediately at [email protected] or call us as soon as possible after placing your order.

8.2 Scheduled or Pre-Orders

• Scheduled or advance orders may be cancelled up to 1 hour before the scheduled delivery or pickup time for a full refund.
• Cancellations made less than 1 hour before the scheduled time may result in a partial refund or store credit at our discretion.

8.3 Large or Catering Orders

• Catering orders or large group orders must be cancelled at least 24 hours in advance for a full refund.
• Cancellations between 12–24 hours in advance may be eligible for a 50% refund.
• Cancellations with less than 12 hours notice will not be eligible for a refund, as ingredients and preparation resources will have already been committed.

9. Exchange Policy

Green Lantern Pizza does not operate a traditional product exchange system given the nature of freshly prepared food. However, we do offer the following remedies in applicable situations:

• Replacement Order: If your order was incorrect or substantially flawed, we may offer to send a replacement order at no additional charge, subject to availability and operational capacity.
• Store Credit: In lieu of a monetary refund, we may offer store credit equivalent to the value of the affected item(s), which can be applied to a future order.
• Complimentary Item: In certain circumstances, we may offer a complimentary item on your next order as a goodwill gesture.

The appropriate remedy will be determined by our customer service team based on the nature and severity of the issue. We will always communicate our proposed resolution clearly and work with you to find a satisfactory outcome.

10. Dispute Resolution Process

If you are unsatisfied with the outcome of your refund request, you have the right to escalate your concern through the following process:

10.1 Internal Escalation

If you believe your refund request was not handled appropriately, you may request that your case be escalated to a senior member of our customer service team. Please send your escalation request to [email protected] with the subject line "Refund Escalation — [Your Order Number]." We will respond within 3 business days.

10.2 Chargeback Rights

As a consumer in the United States, you have the right to dispute a charge with your credit card issuer or bank under applicable banking and consumer protection laws. If you believe a charge was unauthorized or that we have not provided the service or product as described, you may contact your financial institution to initiate a chargeback. However, we encourage customers to exhaust our internal resolution process first, as we are committed to resolving issues fairly and promptly.

10.3 Consumer Protection Agencies

If your dispute cannot be resolved through our internal process, you may contact the following agencies for assistance:

• Federal Trade Commission (FTC): www.ftc.gov — for consumer complaints regarding deceptive practices or unfair business conduct.
• Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB): www.consumerfinance.gov — for payment and billing disputes.
• Your State Attorney General's Office: For state-level consumer protection concerns and complaints.
• Better Business Bureau (BBB): www.bbb.org — for business dispute mediation.

10.4 Governing Law

This Refund Policy and any disputes arising from it shall be governed by the laws of the United States and the applicable laws of the state in which Green Lantern Pizza operates. Any formal legal proceedings shall be conducted in the appropriate courts of competent jurisdiction within the United States.

11. Fraudulent or Abusive Claims

Green Lantern Pizza takes the integrity of our refund process seriously. We reserve the right to deny refund requests that we reasonably believe to be fraudulent, exaggerated, or made in bad faith. This includes, but is not limited to:

• Submitting false or manipulated photographic evidence.
• Making repeated refund claims that suggest a pattern of abuse.
• Claiming non-delivery when delivery has been confirmed by our records or a third-party delivery partner.
• Providing false information about your order or the issue experienced.

In cases of suspected fraud, we reserve the right to refuse service to the individual and to take appropriate legal action.

Green Lantern Pizza reserves the right to update or modify this Refund Policy at any time. Any changes will be posted on our website at greenlaternpizza-meal.click with a revised effective date. Continued use of our website or ordering services after changes have been posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
