(a) Description. The Amazon Kindle Direct Firm Service is an online offering where individuals or entities that have signed up with Amazon Kindle Direct Firm as clients (each, a “Client”) can post specific assignments and project descriptions, including illustrative samples or other media (each, a “Creative Brief”), revise those Creative Briefs (each, a “Revision Brief”) and obtain responses (each, a “Response”) to those Creative or Revision Briefs from design experts retained by Amazon Kindle Direct Firm (“Members”). Amazon Kindle Direct Firm will provide you, as the Client, the Service according to the Package you have chosen. Your Responses will be created iteratively through a drafting cycle of Creative Briefs, Revision Briefs and Responses, ultimately resulting in a final Response conforming to your various Creative and Revision Briefs.
(b) Creative Brief and Responses. You are solely responsible for preparing and posting detailed descriptions of each of your Creative Briefs to the Website, including providing samples illustrating your Creative Brief and any relevant deadlines. For each Response to a Creative Brief that you want to receive, a term sheet (a “Term Sheet”) will be generated that will contain, and be subject to, the terms and conditions you have established for the Creative or Revision Brief. Amazon Kindle Direct Firm is under no obligation to review a Creative or Revision Brief or Term Sheet for any purpose, including accuracy, completeness of information, quality, or clarity. Amazon Kindle Direct Firm may decide, in its sole discretion, to deny a Creative or Revision Brief or a Term Sheet.
(c) Reviewing Responses. When Amazon Kindle Direct Firm provides you with a Response, you are responsible for reviewing the Response. If you fail to promptly inform Amazon Kindle Direct Firm that the Response is not reasonably responsive to the related Term Sheet or Creative Brief, you will be deemed to have accepted the Response. If you notify Amazon Kindle Direct Firm that you think a response is not reasonably responsive to the related Creative Brief, you shall then submit to the Website a Revision Brief containing information regarding amendments or modifications to be made to the initial Response. After you provide Amazon Kindle Direct Firm with a Revision Brief, Amazon Kindle Direct Firm will provide you with a subsequent Response that conforms to the additional criteria you requested. Amazon Kindle Direct Firm is not responsible for the content of Responses developed to the extent that such Responses are prepared to conform to your Creative or Revision Briefs.
(d) Revision Cycles. Revision cycles generally consist of 2-6 additional compositions that incorporate changes you request in a Revision Brief. The purpose of the revision process is to create Responses that move your project forward in the specific direction you have determined. You may request significant changes in the first and second cycles, and the Responses generated might be quite different in nature from the original composition you selected. By the third revision request, your requests shall be modifications of the current composition only.

Stage | Money Back Status |

Customer asks for revisions by providing feedback | Money Back Guarantee does not remain applicable. 100% Satisfaction Guarantee becomes applicable. |

Does the money back guarantee apply to all packages?

Why do Amazon Kindle Direct Firm provide Money Back Guarantee?
We are so confident of our skills and design quality that we provide Money Back Guarantee in case we fail to deliver. Money Back Guarantee is provided in good faith and we expect our customers to exhibit the same. In majority of the cases customer are very honest, co-operative and provide quality feedback in order to get the designs they want. However there is a minority that tries to take unfair advantage of this flexibility. They will place orders with many providers at the same time, get the design concepts from all and then ask for the money back. This practice is unfair, unethical and abusive of human skills. Apologies, but if you are one of those we would rather not have your business.
Design work is very subjective. Unless customer provides quality feedback, it is unlikely to get the designs right in the first attempt. Amazon Kindle Direct Firm is a custom design company that strongly believes in customer feedback and their involvement in the design process. In our experience, initial samples are rarely chosen as the final logo; instead, they are used to bounce ideas. From the feedback provided on these samples we see details about the likes and dislikes of the customer and then provide revisions that are closer to the requirements. Money Back Guarantee cover the customers if we fail to deliver what they wanted.
Money Back Guarantee does not apply on:
Money Back Guarantee does not apply on the above mentioned services and for those who are working on their client’s projects.
Our above mentioned services are non-refundable, but we offer the option to exchange them for other services that are necessary for the project
Note: Please note that customers claiming a refund will not be allowed to use the initial design concepts sent to them. Copy Rights of all designs remain the property of Amazon Kindle Direct Firm until fully paid.
