1. Introduction
            At Shore Quartz Lumen, customer satisfaction is our top priority. This Refund Policy outlines our procedures regarding deposits, cancellations, refunds for services, and product returns. Please read this policy carefully to understand your rights and obligations when booking our services or purchasing our products.
            By booking a service or making a purchase through our website or in person, you agree to the terms outlined in this policy.
            2. Service Deposits and Cancellations
            2.1 Deposits
            To secure your appointment, we require a 50% non-refundable deposit of the total service cost. This deposit is deducted from your final payment upon completion of the service. Deposits may be paid via credit/debit card, bank transfer, or other methods specified at the time of booking.
            2.2 Cancellation Policy
            Our cancellation policy is as follows:
            
                - Cancellations made 48+ hours before appointment: Your deposit may be transferred to a new appointment date within 30 days of the original booking date.
 
                - Cancellations made less than 48 hours before appointment: Your deposit is forfeited.
 
                - No-shows: Your deposit is forfeited, and you may be required to pay the full service amount for future bookings.
 
            
            2.3 Rescheduling
            Appointments may be rescheduled with at least 48 hours' notice at no additional charge, subject to availability. Rescheduling requests made with less than 48 hours' notice will be treated as a cancellation, and the original deposit will be forfeited. A new deposit will be required to secure a new appointment time.
            2.4 Special Circumstances
            We understand that emergencies and unforeseen circumstances can occur. In cases of serious illness, family emergency, or other exceptional situations, we may, at our discretion, waive the cancellation policy. Documentation may be required to support such circumstances.
