Cancellation Work may be canceled by the client at any time. Pro-rated payment will be made to the service provider for the amount of work already completed.
On-time delivery The service provider agrees to deliver the completed task within the specified deadline. If the deadline is not met, the service provider is not entitled to any payment, and the task may be reassigned to another service provider. The service provider may also be excluded from future assignments. If circumstances arise that may prevent the deadline from being met, the service provider should alert ProZ.com staff as far in advance of the deadline as possible.
Disputes If the client complains of defects in the delivered translation, the service provider will be given the opportunity to correct them. If the corrections are not satisfactory to the client, or in the event of any other dispute between the client and service provider, the dispute will be resolved at the reasonable discretion of ProZ.com staff. Such resolution may include a full or partial reduction of the service provider's payment.
Confidentiality The service provider agrees to treat as confidential all texts and other intellectual property of the client which may be provided as part of the turn-key translation project, and to not disclose this confidential material without the client's explicit permission.
