The Platform delivers the Product on the “as is” basis, and the Customer uses the products at their own risk. Everything provided by the Platform is intended for research/reference purposes only. The Platform is also not responsible for the Customer’s grades or any other failure of the Customer to use this Product appropriately or any improper usage of the research contained therein.

2. Order Process

2.1. Placing an Order.

When filling in an Order form, the Customer should provide a valid email address and a correct phone number to reach the Customer (preferably both – home and mobile). There may be multiple occasions during Order preparation when establishing contact with the Customer is crucial. The Platform shall not be responsible for Order delay or other quality issues on the Order if they cannot be resolved due to the incorrect contact data given by the Client.

2.2. Instructions

Because the Platform works based on the Customer’s instructions, these instructions must be clear and precise. If the instructions are not clear and additional instructions are needed to complete the Order, the Customer should provide the necessary instructions as soon as possible. The Customer is advised that once the Order is completed, any revision request must only be based on the initial requirements and description of the original Order. Any changes from the initial instructions of the Order will be considered “editing.” This is an additional service, and the Platform will not conduct any free revision request that is different or deviates from the original Order requirements and/or description. Instructions and additional requests must be sent before a Writer is assigned to the Customer’s Order. Failure to meet this requirement will result in a violation of this Agreement and forfeiture of any claim to the implied warranty or guarantee.

2.3. Sources

The Writer is allowed to use any relevant source available to complete the requested assignment – books, journals, newspapers, interviews, online publications, etc. unless the Customer mentions some particular sources to be used or others to be ignored.

48 hours – 10 days: Instructions and all sources must be received within the first 8 hours.

12 hours – 24 hours: Instructions and all sources must be received within the first 1 hour.

It is the Customer’s sole responsibility to choose the correct academic level that best fits the required assignment when making the Order. Suppose the Customer has made an error while placing an Order. In that case, the Customer must contact the Support Team immediately for assistance since the Writer must complete the Order in accordance with the Academic Level received at the moment the Writer is assigned.

2.5. Checking the Messaging System
