1. Curio Scout and Menu Architect
Purchases of Curio Scout and Menu Architect are non-refundable.
Curio Scout (https://scout.curiofoods.in) and Menu Architect (https://menu.curiofoods.in) are digital tools. Reports are generated for you and made available immediately after purchase, so Curio Foods does not provide refunds or cancellations for these purchases, including for unused reports in a multi-report pack.
This does not affect duplicate or failed payments, which are handled under Sections 6 and 7 of this policy.
2. Workshop Registration Cancellation
For the Curio Foods Workshop, a participant may request cancellation and a refund subject to the conditions below.
Cancellation more than 48 hours before the scheduled workshop
If you request cancellation more than 48 hours before the scheduled workshop start time, you may be eligible for a full refund of the workshop registration fee.
The refund will generally be processed to the original payment method used for the transaction.
Cancellation within 48 hours of the workshop
For cancellations made within 48 hours of the scheduled workshop, the registration fee may be non-refundable because workshop capacity, resources, and access arrangements may already have been allocated.
However, Curio Foods may, at its discretion, offer:
- Transfer of registration to another available workshop session; or
- Another reasonable alternative where operationally feasible.
3. No-Show Policy
If a participant does not attend the workshop without providing advance notice, the registration fee will generally be non-refundable.
Where reasonably feasible, Curio Foods may allow the participant to attend a future session, subject to availability.
Such an arrangement is discretionary and does not create an automatic entitlement to a future session.
4. Workshop Rescheduling or Cancellation by Curio Foods
If Curio Foods needs to cancel or substantially reschedule a workshop for reasons within its control, registered participants will be offered one of the following, as applicable:
- A transfer to a rescheduled session; or
- A full refund of the workshop registration fee.
If the workshop is rescheduled, reasonable efforts will be made to communicate the revised date and time to registered participants.
5. Technical Problems During an Online Workshop
If a participant is unable to attend or participate because of problems with their own:
- Internet connection
- Device
- Browser
- Software
- Power supply
- Local network
- Other equipment or infrastructure
a refund will generally not be provided solely on that basis.
Participants should ensure that they have a suitable device and reliable internet connection before joining an online workshop.
If a significant technical problem occurs on the Curio Foods side and materially prevents the workshop from being delivered, Curio Foods will make reasonable efforts to provide an alternative session or another appropriate resolution.
6. Duplicate Payments
If you believe you have accidentally made more than one payment for the same workshop registration, please contact us as soon as possible.
After verifying the duplicate transaction, the additional eligible payment may be refunded to the original payment method.
7. Failed or Reversed Payments
If a payment fails but the amount has been debited from your bank account or payment method, the transaction may be automatically reversed by the payment provider.
If the amount does not return within the timeframe communicated by the relevant payment provider or bank, please contact us with the transaction details.
We will reasonably assist in verifying the transaction status.
8. Refund Processing
Once a refund is approved, we will initiate the refund through the applicable payment processing system or payment service provider.
The time taken for the refunded amount to appear in your account may depend on:
- Payment method
- Bank
- Card issuer
- UPI provider
- Payment gateway
- Other financial institution involved in the transaction
Curio Foods does not control the processing time after a refund has been successfully initiated with the payment provider.
9. Consulting Services
Refund and cancellation terms for consulting or customized professional services may differ from workshop registrations.
Where a consulting engagement is governed by a separate proposal, quotation, invoice, service agreement, or written engagement, the refund and cancellation terms contained in that agreement will apply.
If no separate terms have been agreed, cancellation and refund requests will be evaluated based on:
- The nature of the service
- Work already completed
- Deliverables already provided
- Third-party costs incurred
- Time already allocated
- The circumstances of the cancellation
10. Digital Materials and Resources
Where a purchase includes downloadable, digital, or otherwise immediately accessible materials, refund eligibility may be affected once such materials have been delivered or access has been provided, subject to applicable law.
Any specific refund terms applicable to a digital product will be clearly communicated on the relevant product page before purchase.
11. How to Request a Cancellation or Refund

12. Refund Eligibility

Curio Foods does not guarantee any particular business, financial, revenue, sales, profitability, or other commercial outcome from participating in a workshop or using our services.

- Other circumstances that reasonably justify an exception
Any exception will be considered on a case-by-case basis and does not automatically modify this policy for future transactions.
14. Consumer Rights
Nothing in this Refund & Cancellation Policy is intended to exclude or restrict any rights or remedies that cannot legally be excluded or restricted under applicable Indian law.
Where applicable law provides a customer with a right to a refund, cancellation, replacement, remedy, or other protection, those rights will continue to apply.
15. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Refund & Cancellation Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our services, business practices, payment arrangements, or applicable legal requirements.
The updated version will be published on this Website with a revised "Last Updated" date.
The policy applicable to a purchase will generally be the version presented to the customer at the time of purchase, subject to applicable law.
