Purpose of This Site and the Content Therein
All the information presented on this Site (“Content”) is for informational purposes only and does not create a business or professional services relationship between us. A service relationship may be established when you place a request for the Services through the Site and the same is accepted in writing by ISI Journal Publications.
We reserve the right to undertake all necessary steps to ensure that the security, safety, and integrity of our systems as well as its users' interests are and remain, well–protected. Towards this end, we may take various steps to verify and confirm the authenticity, enforceability, and validity of service orders placed by you.
Fees and Invoicing
We will issue you a valid tax invoice in respect of each service. We will notify you as soon as the deliverable is ready for download. You will be required to pay all fees before downloading of the deliverable. Except as specified herein or in the Order Form (i) fees are based on the Services requested / purchased and not actual usage, (ii) payment obligations are non-cancellable and fees are non-refundable.
Payment shall be made: (a) in full without set-off, counterclaim or withholding of any kind (save where and to the extent that this cannot by law be excluded); and (b) in the currency mentioned in the order confirmation.
You are responsible for providing complete and accurate billing and contact information to us and notifying us of any changes to such information
We will re-issue any invoice if any error is later discovered. If you have overpaid as a result of a billing error, your account will be credited with the overpayment or, if you have stopped acquiring the Service from us, we will refund the overpayment promptly after your request and after deduction of any other amounts due by you to us.
Billing Dispute: You may dispute an amount invoiced by us but only if you do so in accordance with this clause:
Except to the extent you raise a valid billing dispute in respect of our invoice, you agree that the invoice is valid and payable (and you must pay any undisputed amount included in the invoice in accordance with this clause "Fees and Invoicing”)
To raise a valid billing dispute, you must (i) make a good faith request to us to investigate the specific charges or invoice, providing at the same time specific evidence which demonstrates that a particular charge or invoice is incorrect; and (ii) make any such request to us within 1 month of the date of the relevant invoice.
On receiving good faith dispute request from you, we will conduct investigations which are reasonably necessary and appropriate in the circumstances of the dispute. At the end of these investigations, you will pay any outstanding amount within five Business Days.
Refunds/Cancellation Policy
Please be notified that we do not entertain refund requests if you change your mind. Once an order is delivered you are no longer eligible to ask for a 100% refund. Once an order has been started, the hours put into the project cannot be recuperated and thus we will not provide a refund. The Products and Services offered are non-refundable and come with no warranties, expressed or implied. However, you may ask for up to three revisions free of charge. In case you are not 100% satisfied with the quality of the product/ services, you may ask for a 50% refund against the paid fee amount.
We will process the refund of the 50% fee amount subject to verification of the quality concerns you would claim. In case you have a special complaint scenario and demand a full fee amount refund then your case shall be forwarded to the evaluation committee and they will take an impartial decision based upon facts and shreds of evidence.
Please be notified that you are NOT eligible for a 100% refund once an order is completed and delivered. You may request three revisions in total if the provided product or service does not meet your expectations/ project requirements. You may file a partial refund request if ONLY we have your feedback in written communication followed by disapproved revisions from your end. If you fail to produce any such communication trail, we won't entertain any refund claims.
In case a customer submits a charge-back without approaching ISI Journal Publication for a refund or to discuss the case with the Account Manager, the customer will become ineligible for a refund after that, and ISI Journal Publication reserves the right to not entertain the refund request.
ISI is not responsible for a refund, if the client’s preferred journal choice rejects his/ her submission. In instances where the journal rejects the paper, for any reason whatsoever, be it, plagiarism, formatting, ISI Journal will not be accountable for a full refund.
No cancellation requests will be accepted for confirmed orders.
