This Privacy Policy is part of our Terms and Conditions and should be read alongside the Terms and Conditions. Any information we collect —whether actively provided, from cookies, or through our web hosting—is used solely to deliver our editing services.

When placing an order, we collect:

This information is used to process your order, clarify instructions if we must contact you, collect payment, and ensure the completion of your order. Payments made via credit card, PayPal, Alipay, or other services require sharing relevant details (e.g., order number, payment amount) with the provider for verification and compliance. This information may include your order number and the amount and currency of payment required. Banks and epayment services may also monitor financial activity to ensure compliance with applicable laws and with their terms or service to you and us. We may therefore, on request, provide additional details regarding your order for these purposes.

We may use information collected and provided to us by the sites where we advertise to track the success of our advertising campaigns. This information is aggregated and does not contain any personally identifying information. Order information is retained for legal, tax, and audit purposes, as well as customer service. Documents submitted for editing are securely deleted 15 days after completion. For earlier deletion, please contact us.

Information may also be used for internal business purposes and for research and development purposes. If you are concerned about personal information in the documents submitted to us for editing, we encourage you to replace any such information with placeholder text.

Providing Feedback to Us

Your feedback helps us improve our services. Feedback and reviews are linked to your order details, and we may contact you regarding your input. If you submit feedback via any source for testimonials displayed on the Website, you consent to its display on the Website along with your name, as provided by the online source for testimonials.

Legal Disclosure

We do not share your personal information or documents with third parties, except as stated in this policy. However, we may disclose information if required by law or as part of legal processes. If we suspect illegal activity, including fraud, we may voluntarily share relevant information with authorities.

Agents, Successors, and Assigns

We employ contract editors (freelancers) who require access to submitted documents to perform their duties. Contractors are bound by non-disclosure agreements, and no identifying information is shared with them. Documents are not shared with anyone else.

Recourse and Dispute Resolution

Your personal information is regulated by the laws of the European Union. You have the right to know what information we hold about you and to request corrections. To make such requests, we may ask for proof of identity to ensure your data is disclosed only to you. Submit requests with a valid ID copy to The Data Protection and Privacy Officer when you contact us. We will attempt to process your information as soon as possible.
