Terms of Service
By Placing an order with our company you agree to the following terms...
Order Processing
Translation time begins ONLY after an order has been received and successfully completed our initial processing. Orders are considered received and are put into production ONLY when:
(1) a work order has been created with complete order specifications.
(2) all customer files (source files) with originals have been correctly submitted.
(3) you (the client) provide us with the required transliteration (spelling) of the names or choose "Transliterate the names at your discretion" option
We will always act to make sure that delivery schedules are met. We estimate that most orders will be ready for delivery within 3-5 business days. All proofs approved before noon (CST) are considered starting on that business day. Approved proofs received after noon (CST) will begin the following business day. However, unexpected equipment failure, malfunction and/or technical problems may delay the translation process. Technical difficulty will not be the grounds for order cancellation or discounts.
Turnaround Guarantee
Although we make every intention of meeting all posted turnaround times, our turnaround is intended as an estimate and not a guarantee. We cannot be responsible for mechanical malfunctions, acts of god, or other unforeseen circumstances. However, by adding expedited rush service, we guarantee that your order will be ready the next business day, or we will refund you 100% of your rush charge. Orders received on a business day after 6:00 PM ET will not be processed until the next business day.
Payment Terms
All orders must be prepaid. Under NO conditions does DocTranslation.com offer terms, or extend credit.
Because each job is created custom for the client, it cannot be reused or resold.
Cancellations
Cancelled orders require compensation for incurred costs and related obligations at the time of cancellation.
Due to the speed of our turnaround, you may only cancel a job if it has not been placed on a run. A minimum charge of $25 is applied to jobs cancelled after artwork has been processed for print.
No refunds will be given for orders cancelled after 3pm EST of the same business day the order was placed.
Shipping & Delivery
If you order certified translation only you will receive a PDF-file with translation, which is sufficient.
If you order Notarized Copy of translation, you order will be shipped.
Because shipping carriers are beyond our control, DocTranslation.com is not responsible for delays and/or damage incurred during shipping.
Title for finished work passes to the customer upon delivery to the carrier at shipping point.
We will insure boxes at customers discretion and expense.
We are Not responsible for Delays or Damage incurred after your shipment has left our office.
F.O.B.: New York, NY
