Cancellation Policy Last Updated: May 17, 2026
This Cancellation Policy provides a detailed explanation of how customers can cancel their orders at My Route Story, including step-by-step instructions, timelines, responsibilities, and refund procedures. All cancellations are subject to Australian Consumer Law (ACL).

2. Order Cancellation Window
Orders can be cancelled within 12 hours of placement, provided printing has not yet commenced. The 12-hour window starts at the order confirmation time. Once an order has been sent to print or dispatched, it cannot be cancelled — customers will need to initiate a return instead.
