TERMS AND CONDITIONS

When you place an order with White Stone Book Publishers and complete the required payment, you acknowledge that you have reviewed and accepted these Terms & Conditions. These terms form an agreement between you and White Stone Book Publishers and apply to the services you purchase and use through our website.

We encourage every client to read these terms carefully before placing an order. Our goal is to keep expectations clear and the publishing relationship straightforward from the beginning.

We Deliver Original Content

At White Stone Book Publishers, we respect the originality behind every author's work. Content created as part of your order is intended to be original and free from plagiarism.

Where applicable, we provide a Copyscape report to support the originality review of written content. Please note that text contained within images, videos, or other media that cannot be read by search engines may not be included in a standard Copyscape scan.

If you require additional or more extensive plagiarism verification beyond the checks included within your selected service, you may arrange independent verification at your own expense.

You Receive Ownership of Completed Content

Once an order has been completed, paid for, and submitted to you, the resulting content becomes your property, subject to any specific written agreement or third-party rights that may apply to the project.

We do not require you to publicly acknowledge White Stone Book Publishers for the content we create for you unless otherwise agreed in writing.

You may publish the completed content under your name and use it according to the purpose and rights established for your project.

Our Policy for Using Images

We believe in responsible and respectful use of visual content. White Stone Book Publishers does not claim ownership of copyrighted images belonging to third parties and does not knowingly provide copyrighted material for unauthorized use.

Where appropriate, we may recommend image sources or provide links to visual references that may help you identify suitable imagery for your project. These recommendations do not transfer ownership or licensing rights to you.

You may also choose royalty-free or appropriately licensed images. If a particular image requires a license, purchase, attribution, or permission from its copyright owner, the applicable requirements and costs remain the responsibility of the user.

Limitation of Liability

White Stone Book Publishers provides publishing and related creative services with the aim of supporting authors throughout their publishing journey. However, the use of our website, services, products, or materials may involve circumstances beyond our reasonable control.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, White Stone Book Publishers will not be responsible for direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or reputational losses that a user may claim resulted from the use of our website or services.

This limitation also applies, to the extent permitted by law, to losses allegedly associated with viruses, technical interruptions, website availability, or the inability to access or use our website, products, or services.

We Update Our Policies

Our Terms & Conditions and related policies may be updated from time to time as our services, website, or business practices evolve.

We encourage you to review this page periodically for the latest version. Unless otherwise required by applicable law, policy updates may be made without advance notice.

Refund Policy

We want every project to begin with clear expectations. Our refund policy is therefore based on the agreed project requirements and the services included in your order.

Where a refund request relates to a claimed shortcoming in delivered content, the relevant work may be reviewed against the original order specifications. The evaluation will consider the agreed requirements and available project evidence.

If the delivered work is determined not to meet the agreed specifications, the applicable refund will be handled according to the terms of the order and this policy.

A change of mind does not automatically qualify for a refund once a project has been placed or work has begun.

Please review the refund terms carefully before placing your order. If you have questions about how the policy applies to your project, our customer service team can help clarify the applicable terms.

Full Refund

Where a full refund is applicable under the agreed project terms, White Stone Book Publishers will process the refund in accordance with the applicable payment and refund procedures.

If delivered content is evaluated against the original order specifications and is determined to contain a qualifying shortcoming that cannot be resolved within the agreed scope, the applicable refund may be issued according to the terms of the order.

A refund will not be provided solely because of a change of mind before or after a project has started.

White Stone Book Publishers provides writing, editing, proofreading, publishing, and related author services tailored to individual projects. We may also support authors with promotional and publishing-related activities across appropriate media and channels.

Our aim is to give authors a clear path from an initial idea or manuscript to a professionally prepared book and the next stage of their publishing journey.
