Just as a heads up, I find your thing interesting but in the EU it is illegal to sell a service and not provide a refund policy. This is the main reason pushing me to not actually purchase it.

Huh... I didn't know about this! But FYI I only wrote the no refund policy as a means to prevent/discourage refund abuse, as the product is only available digitally. I have however refunded two people who have requested a refund. But I completely understand your take!
