Refund Requests

Open Source Collective's refund policy

Refund Requests

As a nonprofit , Open Source Collective (OSC) operates on the principle that donations are voluntary contributions made to support the mission and activities of the projects we host. Since donations are not payments for specific deliverables or services, refunds are generally rare and granted only granted in exceptional circumstances.

Please keep in mind:

• Donations are voluntary and are not tied to any deliverable or service. You can learn more about this and the types of funds OSC handles here

• Refunds cannot be issued more than 120 days after the original donation date.
