Returns & Exchanges Policy
An important clarification about how our informational platform operates
Important Notice
This website is an informational and educational platform. We do not conduct any commercial transactions, sell products, offer paid services, or accept payments of any kind. Therefore, standard returns and exchanges policies do not apply to our platform.
Our Platform Model
What We Offer
- • Free, permanent access to nutritional guidance content
- • Educational articles about athlete nutrition and wellness
- • Informational resources available 24/7 without login requirements
- • Transparent, editorial content from our team
What We Do NOT Offer
- • No product sales or merchandise
- • No paid services or subscriptions
- • No payment processing or financial transactions
- • No commercial exchanges or refund procedures
Since Nutrientbalancecore operates as an informational platform, there are no purchases, no transactions, and no financial exchanges. All content is published freely for educational purposes. Therefore, the concept of "returns" or "exchanges" simply does not apply to our operation.
Why We Have No Returns Policy
Consumer protection laws in the United Kingdom and European Union establish return rights specifically to protect buyers in commercial transactions. Here's how this applies to us:
Consumer Rights Law
UK Consumer Rights Act 2015 protects buyers of goods and services. Returns are mandatory only when money has changed hands in exchange for a product or service.
No Buyer-Seller Relationship
Since no payment occurs, there is no commercial contract between you and our platform. Return rights exist only within a transactional relationship.
Free Access Always Available
Our content carries no cost and no commitment. You are free to access it, leave it, or share it with others without any refund concerns.
The Key Difference
A traditional online store accepts your payment in exchange for a product. If you are unhappy, consumer law gives you the right to return that product for a refund—because money was exchanged. Our platform receives no payment. You access our content freely. Therefore, the legal foundation for return rights does not exist.
How This Differs from Online Stores
Traditional Online Store
Accepts Payment
You pay money to purchase items or services
14-Day Return Period
UK law requires return windows for purchased goods
Exchange or Refund
You can swap items or get money back
Return Shipping
Logistics and packaging for product returns
Consumer Protection
Governed by UK Consumer Rights Act 2015
Nutrientbalancecore (Information Platform)
No Payment Accepted
All content is completely free
No Return Period
No purchase = no return window applies
No Refunds
No money was exchanged, so refunds are not applicable
No Shipping Involved
Digital content accessed instantly online
Different Legal Status
Informational site, not a merchant—different rules apply
Why This Matters
Return policies exist to protect consumers who have paid money for items they cannot use or are dissatisfied with. Since Nutrientbalancecore never charges you, never takes payment, and never enters into a commercial transaction with you, consumer return protections are not required—and would not be relevant. You are not a "buyer" in the legal sense; you are a reader accessing free educational content.

Yes. UK Consumer Rights Act 2015 governs commercial transactions between buyers and sellers.

This is compliant with UK law, which only mandates return rights in transactional relationships.
