Welcome to Certified Words Translation Services ("Certified Words", "we", "us", or "our").

These Terms of Service govern your use of the Certified Words website and the services and information made available through it.

By accessing or using our website, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree with these Terms, please do not use the website.

1. About Certified Words

Certified Words Translation Services operates this website and provides information about translation and related language services.

We may also provide access through the website to third-party systems used to request or purchase translation services.

These Terms apply to your use of the Certified Words website. Services ordered through a third-party ordering system may be subject to the terms and conditions applicable to that system.

2. Use of the Website

You may use this website for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms.

You must not:

• use the website for any unlawful or fraudulent purpose;
• attempt to gain unauthorised access to the website, its systems, databases, or security features;
• interfere with the operation or security of the website;
• introduce malicious software, code, or other harmful material;
• copy, reproduce, modify, distribute, or exploit website content without appropriate permission; or
• use the website in a way that could damage, disable, overburden, or impair the website or interfere with another person's use of it.

3. Translation Services

Information about translation and related services displayed on the Certified Words website is provided for general information.

Where the website provides access to an online translation-ordering system, the ordering, payment, document submission, processing, and delivery of those services are handled through the applicable third-party service.

The terms applicable to a particular translation order are the terms presented to you during the ordering process.

Certified Words does not create or require user accounts on its own website for this purpose.

4. Information Submitted to Certified Words

You may voluntarily provide information through features such as our Contact Us and Join as a Translator forms.

Information submitted through these forms is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

You are responsible for ensuring that information you provide to us is accurate and does not knowingly contain unlawful, misleading, or malicious material.

5. Translator Applications

Submitting an application to join Certified Words as a translator does not guarantee acceptance, engagement, employment, or the allocation of translation work.

We may review applications and decide whether to contact an applicant or proceed with any potential professional relationship.

Any separate professional relationship or engagement with a translator may be subject to additional terms or agreements.

6. Intellectual Property

Unless otherwise stated, the content of the Certified Words website, including text, graphics, logos, designs, layouts, images, and other materials, is owned by or used by Certified Words with appropriate permission.

You may view and use website content for your personal or legitimate business purposes.

You must not reproduce, modify, distribute, publish, sell, license, or otherwise exploit substantial portions of our website content without our prior permission, except where permitted by applicable law.

All third-party trademarks, names, and logos remain the property of their respective owners.

7. Website Availability and Accuracy

We aim to keep the website available, accurate, and up to date, but we do not guarantee that:

• the website will always be available or uninterrupted;
• all information will always be complete, accurate, or current;
• the website will be free from errors or defects; or
• the website will always be free from viruses or other harmful components.

We may modify, suspend, withdraw, or discontinue any part of the website or its content at any time.

8. Third-Party Services and Links

The website may contain links, integrations, or access to services operated by third parties.

We are not responsible for the content, availability, security, privacy practices, or terms of third-party websites or services.

Your use of a third-party service may be subject to that provider's own terms and policies.

9. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Certified Words shall not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or economic losses arising from or related to your use of the website.

We are not responsible for losses arising from:

• interruption or unavailability of the website;
• reliance on information published on the website;
• events or services outside our reasonable control; or
• the acts, omissions, availability, or performance of third-party services.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.

10. Indemnity

To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to be responsible for losses, claims, liabilities, and reasonable costs arising from your unlawful use of the website or your violation of these Terms.

11. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time to reflect changes to our website, services, business practices, or applicable requirements.

When we make changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the beginning of these Terms.

Your continued use of the website after updated Terms are published constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms to the extent permitted by applicable law.

12. Suspension or Termination

We may restrict or suspend access to the website where reasonably necessary to protect the website, our systems, users, or legitimate business interests, or where we reasonably believe that these Terms have been violated.

Provisions that by their nature should continue after termination or suspension will remain applicable.

13. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be interpreted or limited to the extent necessary to make it enforceable where possible.

The remaining provisions will continue in effect.

14. No Waiver

Our failure to enforce any provision of these Terms does not constitute a waiver of our right to enforce that provision or any other provision later.

15. Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any other terms expressly incorporated by reference, constitute the terms governing your use of the Certified Words website.

16. Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws applicable to Certified Words and its operations, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

Any dispute relating to these Terms or your use of the website shall first be addressed through good-faith communication between the parties before formal proceedings are initiated, where permitted by applicable law.
