5. Purchase and Refund Policy
You agree to abide by the purchase and refund policies of Vanguard Performance Labs as set out in this section.
5.1 Standard Refunds
Refunds are only permitted prior to submission of urine or blood specimens to a Patient Service Center for testing. Approved refunds will be issued at 75% of the original purchase price. No refund will be issued more than 21 days after receipt of payment.
5.2 Promotional Refunds — "Free if We Don't Find Anything" and 90-Day Money-Back Guarantee
These promotions may end at any time. A refund under these promotions may be claimed only if all of the following conditions are met:
- The patient is a first-time customer (determined by personal details, not solely by email address)
- The order does not contain STD tests or Sickle Cell tests
- There are no "high," "low," "abnormal," "alert," or "critical" flags in your test results (flags are determined by comparing result levels to normal ranges for your gender and age)
- The order date is on or after April 28, 2022
- Specimens were collected within 90 days of the order date
Refunds under these promotions are limited to the actual amount paid after any discounts, credits, loyalty points, or other promotions have been applied, and do not include the value of such discounts or credits. To file a claim, within 15 days of your results being posted, contact us at info@vanguardperform.com with the subject line "Money Back Guarantee" and provide your order number.
5.3 Gift Orders
Gift orders are non-refundable under all circumstances. Once a gift order is placed and payment is processed, no refund will be issued, regardless of whether specimens have been submitted to a Patient Service Center. By purchasing a gift order, you acknowledge and agree that the purchase is final and not eligible for any refund, including under the promotional offers in Section 5.2.
5.4 Site-Wide Promotional Events
For any site-wide promotional events — meaning any promotional discount that applies to all or substantially all products on our Site, including but not limited to Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Cyber Week, New Year's promotions, or other seasonal or major discount periods — all sales are final. Orders placed during these periods are not eligible for refunds under any circumstances, regardless of test type or discount amount.
6. Order Changes
You agree to a $15 administration fee to be charged (or deducted from any unused credit balances) for each request to change your order once your order has been processed.
7. Lab Orders and Requisitions
Your lab order with Vanguard Performance Labs never expires. However, the requisition (the prescription document used by the lab provider, such as Quest Diagnostics or LabCorp) is valid for 12 months from the date of purchase per lab regulations. If your requisition expires before you visit a lab, we will reissue a new one when you are ready. In most cases, there is no additional cost.
If the price of any test on your order has increased since your original purchase, you may be required to pay the difference before a new requisition can be issued. We will always notify you of any additional balance before charging. With your approval, the difference will be charged to the payment method on file. If no payment method is available, we will provide a secure link to complete payment. Requisitions will not be issued until the full balance is settled.
Reissued requisitions may not be transferred to another name. We reserve the right to charge an administrative fee of up to $15 or to decline a reissue request at our sole discretion, including but not limited to cases of abuse, excessive requests, or other unforeseen circumstances.
8. Discount Codes and Credits
Discount coupon codes are issued as a courtesy to our customers. Coupons are not redeemable for cash and cannot be applied when using Gift Certificates or multi-pack credits purchased at a discount. Gift Certificates, House Credit Certificates, and multi-pack credits are not refundable and not redeemable for cash, in whole or in part.
Adjustments, credits, and/or refunds for discount codes not entered at the time of ordering will not be issued. Credits of any kind cannot be combined. You may not use more than one credit per order. Certain products may not be eligible for marketing promotions or discounts. These exclusions may change at any time at our discretion without prior notice.
9. Turnaround Times
Turnaround times for test results are provided as estimates only, based on information provided by Quest Diagnostics and/or LabCorp as applicable. Vanguard Performance Labs does not control turnaround times and cannot guarantee that estimated timeframes will be met in all cases.
10. Referral Program
We reserve the right to change the terms and discount or credit amounts (including loyalty points earned) of the referral program at any time. If you have already referred a friend and we update the referral amounts, you and your friend will keep the original discount for that referral, but future referrals will be subject to the updated amounts. Referral discounts apply only to first-time customers and may be removed during checkout if we determine the patient has previously used our services. Orders placed using a referral discount are not eligible for refunds.
11. At-Home Blood Collection — Appointment Cancellation and Rescheduling
At-home blood collection appointments (where a certified phlebotomist travels to your home or specified location to perform the blood draw) are subject to the following policy. Services may be performed by Vanguard Performance Labs or by third-party providers.
- At-home blood collection appointments can be canceled or rescheduled by contacting us at info@vanguardperform.com.
- Appointments can be canceled for a full refund if canceled at least 24 hours before the scheduled appointment time. Cancellations made within 24 hours of the scheduled appointment time are non-refundable and the purchase is final.
- Appointments can be rescheduled up to 2 hours before the scheduled appointment time.
- We recommend rescheduling rather than canceling within the 24-hour window to preserve your order value and avoid cancellation fees.
If unforeseen circumstances prevent our phlebotomist from completing your scheduled appointment, Vanguard Performance Labs reserves the right to cancel and will reschedule the appointment or refund any payment made for the affected service.
