Terms ofService.

These terms explain how ScriptiQ Studio provides book preparation services. By submitting a project, you agree to the scope, payment, revision, and ownership terms described here and in your selected package or custom quote.

Service scope

ScriptiQ Studio provides book preparation services such as editing, proofreading, cover design, formatting, metadata support, and related manuscript preparation.

Author ownership

You retain ownership of your manuscript and intellectual property. ScriptiQ Studio does not become your publisher or distributor.

Customer responsibilities

You are responsible for submitting accurate project details, providing files you have the right to use, reviewing deliverables, and requesting revisions within the agreed revision window.

Payment

Work begins after we receive the required manuscript files and verify payment, unless we agree otherwise in writing. Manual UPI payments are not confirmed until the reference is matched with the payment notification. Cancellations and refunds, including the 24-hour full-refund window, are covered in our Refund & Cancellation Policy.

Promotional offers

The welcome offer gives an eligible first-time customer 50% off their first published-price order of services, a bundle, or a custom package, including selected extras. Custom quotes and orders awaiting a confirmed price are not eligible. Your personal code is emailed to you and must be applied at checkout using the same email address. One welcome code is issued per eligible email address; requesting it again resends the same unused code, subject to resend limits. Customers with an existing paid order are not eligible.

When the author launch offer is active, the public code AUTHOR2000 lets the first three eligible authors to successfully apply it buy one selected service or bundle for ₹2,000. In an order containing several services, it applies to the highest-priced eligible service or bundle; the other items and extras remain at their regular price. The eligible item must have a base price above ₹2,000; otherwise the application is rejected without using a place. Only three claims are available for the campaign, with one claim per customer. An advertised place is secured only when the server confirms a successful application.

Applying a coupon consumes it immediately. Once Apply succeeds, that discount is locked to that order and cannot be moved to another order or combined with another coupon. Closing checkout, an interrupted payment, or a payment retry does not restore the code or public-offer place. You may resume the same order with its saved discount. Repeated Apply clicks on that order do not consume another use. Orders with a coupon keep their original selected items and quoted pricing.

Promotion discounts reduce the total order price. The existing split-payment arrangement still applies: the advance is calculated from the discounted total, and the remaining balance is due before final delivery. Switching campaigns pauses new claims for the disabled public offer and pauses new welcome-code issuance while the author launch offer is active. Already-issued unused welcome codes remain valid, and discounts already applied to an order remain attached to it. Switching an offer off and on does not reset claimed places. Our Refund & Cancellation Policy continues to apply.

Timelines

Timelines begin after required manuscript files and verified payment are received, unless otherwise agreed in writing.

Revisions

Included revision rounds depend on the selected bundle or custom quote. Additional revisions may require extra fees.

Delivery policy

Final deliverables depend on the selected package and may include edited manuscript files, formatted eBook files, print-ready PDF files, cover files, metadata copy, or other agreed materials. Delivery is complete when the agreed files are sent or made available for download.

Accepted manuscript restrictions

You may submit only material you own, control, or have permission to use. We may decline, pause, or re-scope projects that include illegal, plagiarized, unsafe, infringing, or out-of-scope material.

Invoices and taxes

Prices are shown in INR unless stated otherwise. Any invoice, tax, GST, or business registration details depend on the final business setup and may be confirmed before paid work begins.

No sales guarantees

We do not guarantee book sales, rankings, reviews, royalties, publishing acceptance, or marketplace performance.
