Commissions are for personal use and personal reference only. I will also have the sole discretion of the commissioned translation(s) being made available on my blog or my portfolio. For commercial use, please email aheadofthenight at outlook dot com for further discussion. tl;dr of the process > Onboarding (discussing, ironing out details of the arrangement, payment, scope of the work I'm doing, deadline(s) and etc so there won't be any surprises for both of us). Depending on the nature of the commission, either an exact amount or estimates will be provided. > Once upfront or 50% of the payment is received, I will begin translating. > Any hijinks happening, I'll let you know if it'll affect my progress. > When it's completed, I'll provide a preview of the translation to you. > You confirm and (if applicable) pay the remaining amount. > Once I've received payment, I will email the translation to you via email in two formats, a .txt file and a Google Docs link. I am planning to include a survey as a follow-up about my services so leaving feedback on social media would be greatly appreciated though not necessary. Please read my terms of service carefully and email/message me if you have any questions. In commissioning me, you agree to the following: I am translating the Japanese text that you've provided into English for you. An estimate will be provided and if there are unforeseen complications in the text that weren't mentioned or brought up during the discussion, the final invoice will reflect this. For small commissions, I usually start and finish as soon as possible once payment is received. If this will not be the case, I will let you know beforehand and proceed accordingly. For a larger volume of text, I need 50% of the payment before beginning the work and the remaining 50% once it's completed. A preview will be made available to you before I receive the remaining payment. For a larger volume of text, payment plans can be discussed. Payment methods: Ko-Fi via Stripe. Other payment methods include PayPal and TransferWise but please email me instead of commissioning me via Ko-Fi. Deliverables, once commissioned, are not allowed any refunds nor cancellations. Late fees will be charged if payment is not received upon completion of the commission(s). Disclaimer: Translations provided are meant for personal use and personal reference only. If found reproduced elsewhere without permission and/or profiting from it, I will initiate a DMCA takedown. I do not provide the transcripted Japanese text. You will only receive the English translated text. If you prefer a certain style (including the suffixes, glossaries), please mention this during the onboarding process. If there are any mistakes that I have neglected to correct, they will be revised accordingly but I will have the final say at the number of revisions allowed. Completed commissions will be emailed to you as 1. Google Document link(s) 2. .txt file(s) Terms of service will be updated from time to time. Originally written April 27, 2021.
