Should I ask customers to send private files or credentials?

No. The templates ask for order lookup details, file name, device context, app context, and visible error text instead of credentials, private files, private links, or payment details.

Does this template guarantee repair, replacement, or refund?

No. It explains a next support step without promising repair, conversion, replacement, compatibility, resend, refund, restored access, or exact timing.
