Refund Policy
Last Updated: 01.01.2026
Introduction
Hungarian Academy provides digital educational services, including online courses, subscriptions, streaming content, and downloadable learning materials.
Because access to our content is granted immediately upon purchase, and digital content cannot be returned once accessed, all purchases are final and non-refundable, except in the limited circumstances described in this policy.
By purchasing a subscription or course, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to this Refund & Cancellation Policy.
If you have questions before purchasing, please contact us at:
