Clients are responsible for ensuring that authorship, acknowledgments, contributor disclosures, conflicts of interest, institutional requirements, patient consent, and research approvals comply with the policies applicable to their project and target journal or institution.

Accuracy and final review

Clients remain responsible for reviewing and approving the factual accuracy of all submitted work, including clinical facts, data, references, author information, disclosures, and journal submission materials.

Patient information

Do not transmit protected health information or directly identifying patient information through the public website inquiry form. Additional secure workflows may be required before any sensitive material is reviewed.

Intellectual property

Ownership and permitted use of project materials should be addressed in the agreed scope of work when applicable. Clients represent that they have permission to share materials they submit for review.

Payments, cancellations, and refunds
