⚙️ Technical Questions
I paid but did not receive an email. What should I do?
First, check your spam folder. Wait another 10 minutes. If you still haven't received anything after 30 minutes? Contact us using the email address you used to order.
The PDF file does not open on my device.
Download the free Adobe Acrobat Reader app (available for iOS, Android, Windows, and Mac).
↩️ Returns & Complaints
Can I return my purchase or get a refund?
Because e-books are delivered instantly, the statutory right of withdrawal no longer applies once your download has started. Not satisfied? Email us within 14 days of your purchase with your order number — we'll find a fair solution, such as help, an exchange for another e-book, or a refund. See our refund policy.
