These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Certified Editing website and any proofreading, editing, language review, formatting, or related services provided by Certified Editing (“we,” “us,” or “our”). By using our website or ordering our services, you agree to be bound by these Terms.
Certified Editing provides proofreading, editing, and related language support services for academic, professional, and general written materials. Unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing, our services are limited to language-related improvements and do not constitute authorship, research design, legal advice, publication guarantees, or academic endorsement.
By using this website or placing an order, you represent that you are legally able to enter into a binding agreement and that you have the authority to submit any document or information you provide to us.
You agree that:
Any quote provided through the website, by email, or by other communication is an invitation to enter into a service agreement and may be subject to review, clarification, file inspection, deadline feasibility, and confirmation. A service order is not deemed accepted until we confirm it.
Prices may vary depending on factors such as document length, subject matter, service level, turnaround time, complexity, formatting requirements, and any additional requests. Payment terms will be stated at the time of quotation, checkout, or confirmation.
We reserve the right to refuse or suspend work where payment has not been made in accordance with the agreed terms.
Estimated delivery times are provided in good faith based on the information available at the time of booking. However, delivery times are estimates only and may be affected by file quality, document complexity, revision requests, technical issues, force majeure events, or incomplete information from the client.
If a revision policy is included in your order, revision requests must be submitted within the period specified in the service confirmation or quotation. Revisions are generally limited to issues reasonably related to the original service scope. Substantial changes to the source document, additional writing, or new instructions may require a new order or additional fee.
While we strive to improve clarity, grammar, style, and presentation, we do not guarantee journal acceptance, reviewer approval, academic success, publication, grades, immigration outcomes, funding outcomes, or any other specific result.
You retain ownership of the original content you submit, subject to any third-party rights that may apply. We retain ownership of our website content, branding, design, logos, service descriptions, and any materials created by us for the operation of the website, except where otherwise agreed in writing.
Upon full payment, you may use the edited deliverables for your lawful personal, academic, or business purposes.
We treat submitted materials as confidential and use reasonable measures to protect them. However, you acknowledge that no digital system is entirely free from risk, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
You may not use the website or our services to:
We aim to keep the website available and functional, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted access, error-free operation, or continuous availability. We may suspend, modify, or discontinue any part of the website or services at any time.
Our website may rely on or link to third-party tools, payment gateways, analytics platforms, or external websites. We are not responsible for the availability, content, policies, or practices of third-party services.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the website and services are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. We make no warranties, express or implied, regarding merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, uninterrupted operation, or specific outcomes from use of the services.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Certified Editing shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, including loss of profits, loss of data, loss of opportunity, publication delays, business interruption, or reputational harm arising out of or related to the use of the website or services.
Where liability cannot be excluded, our total liability shall be limited to the amount actually paid by you for the specific service giving rise to the claim, unless a different limitation is required by applicable law.
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Certified Editing, its affiliates, contractors, and service providers from claims, liabilities, damages, costs, and expenses arising out of your misuse of the website, your submitted content, your breach of these Terms, or your violation of any law or third-party right.
We reserve the right to refuse service, suspend access, cancel an order, or terminate use of the website where we reasonably believe these Terms have been violated, payment obligations have not been met, or the requested service is inappropriate, unlawful, or impracticable.
Any refund policy will be governed by the specific terms communicated at the time of order or service confirmation. Because editing and proofreading services are custom and labor-based, refunds may be limited once work has begun or been completed, except where required by applicable law.
We may update these Terms from time to time. Updated Terms will be posted on this page with a revised “Last Updated” date. Continued use of the website or services after any update constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Türkiye, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the competent courts of İzmir-Türkiye, unless otherwise required by applicable law.
