EMBED CANCELLATION POLICY

Customers requesting to cancel an order, either in its entirety or partly, such as the cancellation of any product in an order or a reduction in quantity from the quantity on the original order received by Embed from the Customer, are subject to the following Cancellation Policy. The Customer is responsible for ensuring Embed receives a request of order cancellation in writing prior to Embed reviewing the Customer's order cancellation request. Embed reserves the right to charge the Customer cancellation fees and restocking fees for work completed at the time of Embed receiving a written request of order cancellation.
