Terms and Conditions (scroll down to read complete terms)
The following shall represent the Terms and Conditions under which Berg Logistics Translation LLC operates:
<![if !supportLists]> 1. <![endif]> Commitment to Quality
Berg Logistics Translation LLC (hereafter referred to as Berg LLC) is committed to providing on-time, cost-efficient, high-quality translations. We strive for linguistic and subject-matter accuracy, correct grammar, and style, as well as for cultural competence. We do not guarantee that our translations will be 100% flawless. Since our translations are made and proofread by human linguists, it is inevitable that errors may occur or are overlooked. While we strive for perfection, we do not guarantee it. Should any of our translations contain any significant, objective, and verifiable mistakes or errors with regard to grammar, syntax, orthography, punctuation, terminology, or style, we will correct these without charge.
However, if corrections are based on the client’s subjective preference of style and/or terminology, or if a source text is changed by the client after Berg LLC has started the translation process, or if a client’s reviewer introduces changes into Berg LLC’s delivered translation that are not supported by the wording and manifest meaning of the original source text, Berg LLC shall not have an obligation to make such corrections or implement such changes at no charge, unless preferences of style and/or terminology have been communicated to Berg LLC in writing prior to the start of the translation process.
Complaints - In order to be considered, any complaint about translations produced and delivered by Berg LLC must have been communicated to Berg LLC in writing within a period of eight weeks after the delivery date of the translation in question. Regardless of whether a complaint is justified or not, Berg LLC shall have no obligation to consider any complaints that are submitted at a date later than eight weeks after delivery date or that are not submitted in writing. Email shall be considered "in writing". "Delivery" shall mean any transmission of the translation to the client via email, FTP site, mail, or carrier.

Upon request, Berg LLC will sign a non-disclosure agreement in order to assure the confidentiality of the document(s) to be translated.
<![if !supportLists]> 3. <![endif]> Commitment of Delivery
We are fully aware of the importance of on-time delivery and shall put forth every reasonable effort to complete translations in a timely fashion and within the agreed-upon timeframe. However, Berg LLC shall not be considered in violation of its delivery promise if the client shortens the previously agreed turnaround time after Berg LLC received the client's written go-ahead.
<![if !supportLists]> 4. <![endif]> Sample Translations
For translation projects of 3,000 words and above, Berg LLC will, upon request from client, provide a free sample translation, in order to give clients a perspective of the translation quality and style that we provide, prior to placing a binding order with Berg LLC. Sample translations are typically 120 source words in length; however, Berg LLC reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to change the conditions under which a sample translation is granted, including the size of the sample. If Berg LLC receives a translation order based on the sample translation it previously provided Berg LLC will make every reasonable effort, without obligation, to use the same translator who produced the sample.
<![if !supportLists]> 5. <![endif]> Liability

<![if !supportLists]> 8. <![endif]> Force Majeure
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Berg LLC shall not be liable to the client for any failure to fulfill Berg LLC obligations hereunder if such failure to fulfill Berg LLC obligations is due to any Force Majeure such as but not limited to labor disputes, fire, flood, governmental or political action, acts of God, breakdown of communication networks, power outages, or any other causes beyond the reasonable control of Berg LLC In the event of any such occurrence, the time period for Berg LLC performance under this Agreement shall be correspondingly extended.
