Verification
We do not control or take responsibility for any information provided by any Expert even if they are verified. Additionally, we do not endorse or make any representations or warranties regarding the reliability of the verification or Experts themselves. Similarly we cannot confirm that each Customer is who they claim to be.
Service providing
You will not use the Product in any manner that harasses other users or the Company. You will respect the privacy of the Company and other users and you will not make any unwelcome, rude or abusive communications.
If you ever believe that the Expert has violated the law or is threatening or endangering you in any way, please let us know right away.
When ordering Services you will be exposed to content from the Experts who are not under our direct supervision or control and that we are not responsible for the content or communications provided by them.
You are solely responsible for all information that you submit or transmit through the Site.
Once you submit your information via our Site it cannot always be withdrawn. You assume all risks associated with your information, including anyone else’s reliance on its quality, accuracy, or reliability, or any disclosure by you of information that makes you personally identifiable.
You take sole responsibility for ensuring that the information does not contain any material that is illegal, is false, intentionally misleading, defamatory, or violates any third-party right.
You acknowledge that the Site is designed to provide educational assistance to Customers and expressly agree to comply with the community guidelines.
Order placing
The Order is placed by completing the Order form provided on the Site. No Service is provided by other means than by request.
The Order form will outline the scope of work, Order parameters, and delivery terms. It is your responsibility to provide exact, complete, and final information in each standard Order form section when filling it out. You are obligated to ensure that the information given in the Order is presented in a form that allows the Expert to provide you with a correct Product.
The Company reserves the right to re-evaluate the Order details following the final payment to confirm whether the assignment requirements were met successfully, as indicated by the Customer. Should a mismatch occur, Support reserves the right to modify the Order to ensure that the Customer’s requirements have been adhered to.
Each Order placed by the Customer has a required volume, measured by the number of words. Upon the Service delivery, the Product received has to match the expected word sum. Note that the document may have fewer pages than requested but should have an exact number of words according to the «275 words per double-spaced page or 550 words per single-spaced page» rule. Should there be a page/number-of-words mismatch, the Customer may request to reformat the Product to match the number of words/pages according to the «275 words per double-spaced page or 550 words per single-spaced page» rule. For PowerPoint presentation with speaker notes, 1 slide corresponds to 550 words of speaker notes.
Customer and Support may provide changes to the scope of work only if the Expert has not started the work yet. No changes can be made once the Expert has started working on the Order. Should the changes in Order details affect the volume of work, Order complexity, or narrow the completion terms, the Customer will be asked to provide additional compensation.
Should the Customer require any specific materials to be utilized in the production process, they must specify the sources and provide them to the Expert. If the references are not provided, the Expert is responsible for locating them. However, additional charges will be incurred and must be paid before the Expert can begin working on the project.
In general, the following deadlines for Orders are in place:
- For Orders due within 12-24 hours, the Customer must supply the sources within 30 minutes of the Order placement.
- For Orders due within 24-72 hours, within 1 hour.
- For Orders with a 72+ hour deadline, sources must be received a day in advance.
If the Customer did not provide materials within the deadline, extra payment and/or time may be required to complete the Order. The Company is not responsible if the Order’s instructions were changed or incorrect in the first place. If the Customer adds extra materials after the work is delivered, all the funds can be released to the Expert if initial instructions are followed.
We strongly encourage Customers to communicate with the Expert through the messaging system or contact the Support team directly. By placing an Order on the Site, the Customer acknowledges that it may take a few hours to get a reply from an Expert.
The Customer can monitor the progress of the Order through their Personal Account, where information about each Order and its status is displayed. The Customer can also contact Support to request the Order’s progress status by using all communication means. The Support Team is available 24/7.
Customers have the option to choose a favorite expert for an order by specifying their name or ID in the “Invite Expert” field. However, there is no 100% guarantee that the specific Expert will be available. In such cases, the Customer reserves the right to assign another Expert from the list of biddings.
While ordering the Services, you must not send to the Experts any content which may be considered illegal, unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, violent, harassing, tortious, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, pornographic, libelous, invasive of privacy or publicity rights, hateful or racially, sexually, ethnically or otherwise objectionable.
Order payment and discounts
The Company starts processing your Order only after the payment for the Service is made and authorized. You can only use Mastercard, Maestro, Visa, American Express, Discover, JCB or Diners Club International cards to recharge your Personal Balance. It is recommended that you use a payment card at least six months before the expiration date.
The payment for the product is calculated based on the Company’s pricing and is paid in advance, as stated in the order form, once the scope of work is identified. Additionally, the Customer may be charged a service fee for using the Site, which is determined by the Company and depends on the order’s complexity, parameters, and other features. The exact amount of the service fee is available to the Customer at the payment stage.
The service fee is non-refundable unless required by law or otherwise permitted in these Terms, Refund Policy or other policies, available on our Site (e.g. when the order evaluation is 0%).
The Company will not proceed with the product delivery until full payment has been made and authorized. Orders can be paid by funds from your Personal Balance.
The Company reserves the right to offer discount and bonus programs to Customers at its discretion. The Customer can use promo code(s) when filling out the Order form. If the code is not provided in the corresponding section of the Order form, the promo code will not apply to the Order being placed.
Upon your Order evaluation, the Company may request additional payment or additional time to work on your Order since the volumes of the work to be done to fulfill your requirements can only be defined after a manual review is performed. The Expert determines the final price after the manual review. The Customer may decide at their own will to either agree to new Order parameters and Order Total or refuse to cooperate with the Expert.
Should the case of partial or full payment reimbursement occur, you have the option to either proceed according to the Refund Policy or transfer the funds to your personal balance.
Pricing for the Services is subject to change. All descriptions of the Services and payment terms posted on the Site are within our sole discretion.
The Company may add new services for additional fees and charges, amend fees and charges for existing Services, or withdraw its offering at any time, at its sole discretion.
The price charged for the Service and payment terms will be the price and payment terms in effect at the time the order is placed.
Price increases will only apply to orders placed after such changes.
When making payment for the Services, you may be charged additional fees arising on behalf of your bank. The Company is not liable or responsible for any additional fees, such as foreign transaction fees or other similar fees charged by your bank. Also, additional fees may apply based on your location and currency.

Eight days after the deadline, if no Revision was requested, the funds will be automatically released as part of the Expert protection. For more information on refunds of completed Orders, read our Refund Policy.
Order revision
To receive a free Revision of the Product, the Customer has to submit a written Revision request using the Messaging System or Company’s email. Such requests are accepted within fourteen (14) calendar days after the Order delivery date for a short type of Product (less than ten pages, tasks, slides, respectively) and within thirty (30) calendar days after the Order delivery date for or a large type of Product (more than ten pages, tasks, slides respectively).
Should the Revision deadline be missed, the Customers may have their Order revised for additional payment, or the Customers can place an Order for Editing. In some cases, the Quality Assurance Department can submit free Order Revision after the indicated Revision deadline at their discretion.
The Quality Assurance Department reserves the right to decline a Revision request if the Revision instructions violate initial Order instructions. In such cases, the Customer may be requested to pay additionally for the requested changes or place an Order for Editing.
The Quality Assurance Department reserves the right to decline or limit multiple Revision requests if the Customer's behavior demonstrates blatant exploitation of the Expert or other unreasonable demands.
