Legal & Transparency

Terms of Service & Working Guidelines.

Clear expectations regarding project scoping, editorial review, interior formatting deliverables, and mutual responsibilities.

Notice to Business Owner: These Terms of Service serve as a baseline framework. Please consult with legal counsel to adjust terms to your specific corporate structure, deposit policies, and local contract regulations before commercial deployment.

1. Project Enquiries & Service Agreements

Submitting a project enquiry via this website does not constitute a binding contract, nor does it guarantee service availability or initiate work. A professional engagement commences only after:

  • We have reviewed the manuscript parameters (word count, condition, and deliverables).
  • Both parties have agreed upon a written statement of work outlining scope, price, milestones, and deliverables.
  • Any agreed preliminary deposit or scheduling arrangement has been completed.

2. Timelines & Author Deliverables

Project schedules and estimated delivery dates depend upon the timely receipt of final manuscript files, images, front/back matter text, and prompt feedback from the author. Delays in supplying necessary source materials may result in project rescheduling.

3. Author Rights, Copyright & Permissions

The author represents and warrants that they possess all legal rights, permissions, and copyright ownership for all text, illustrations, tables, diagrams, and media submitted for editing or interior formatting. Inkflame Studio assumes no liability for copyright infringement or defamation arising from client-supplied content.

4. Platform Approval & Commercial Disclaimers

While interior files are engineered and checked against Amazon KDP and standard publishing technical specifications:

  • Inkflame Studio cannot and does not guarantee retail acceptance or platform approval decisions, as final upload validation rests exclusively with third-party platforms (Amazon, IngramSpark, etc.). KDPPressCheck is a separate product.
  • We make no representations or guarantees regarding commercial success, book sales, bestseller rankings, or reader reception.
  • The author remains responsible for their own platform publisher account, metadata entry, pricing configuration, and file submission.

5. Revisions, Checking & Final Review

Each individual project agreement specifies an author review window and any included correction rounds. Editorial changes requested after interior typesetting has commenced may incur additional formatting fees due to the resulting repagination and reflow.
