Payments made under this agreement compensate for the professional time, labor, and creative services performed during the project.

Creative services are not subject to refund once delivered.

Once work has commenced on any portion of the publishing project, payments made for services already performed are non-refundable.

The Client further acknowledges that publishing outcomes, including acceptance, visibility, platform review decisions, algorithm placement, or temporary restrictions imposed by third-party platforms such as Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing, are outside the control of Ana Silvia Lara Publishing LLC and therefore cannot constitute grounds for refund requests.

In the event that the Client requests to terminate the project before completion, any remaining services included in the package may be cancelled at the discretion of Ana Silvia Lara Publishing LLC without obligation to complete future phases of the project.

Ana Silvia Lara Publishing LLC reserves the right to terminate the professional relationship immediately in the event of abusive, aggressive, threatening, defamatory, or dishonest conduct by the Client. In such cases, all work completed up to the termination date will be considered delivered services and no additional refunds will be issued.

The Client agrees that disputes should be addressed in good faith and that any attempt to damage the professional reputation of Ana Silvia Lara Publishing LLC through false, misleading, or defamatory statements may constitute grounds for legal action.

If a project is cancelled, services already performed will be considered completed, and services not yet performed will be cancelled.

9. Unexecuted Services

10. Completion of Editorial Services

Once a book has been:

formatted or prepared for publishing

Ana Silvia Lara Publishing LLC does not control and is not responsible for the internal policies, content review decisions, printing processes, algorithms, listing visibility, distribution, availability, or account actions taken by such platforms.

All decisions regarding listing status, availability, printing, distribution, and sales are made solely by the respective platform according to their own policies and internal procedures.

All decisions regarding the acceptance, rejection, suspension, removal, printing quality, or availability of titles are made exclusively by the respective platform according to their own policies and internal procedures.

14. Scope of Editorial Services

The services provided by Ana Silvia Lara Publishing LLC include the editorial preparation of the manuscript and assistance with the initial publication process.

Once the book has been published and the corresponding materials have been delivered to the author, any additional services such as revisions, technical updates, new editions, re-uploads, platform troubleshooting, or further management of publishing platforms must be agreed upon separately as additional services.

The services provided consist of technical guidance, design, and preparation for publication. They do not constitute traditional publishing or literary agency services, and do not guarantee specific editorial or aesthetic standards beyond the technical requirements of publishing platforms.

15. Creative and Promotional Services

Promotional materials such as interviews, launch videos, marketing graphics, or other publicity materials are creative and promotional services intended to support the visibility of the author’s work.

Subjective opinions regarding the style, tone, or format of these materials shall not constitute contractual breach when the services have been delivered within the general scope of the agreed package.

16. Project Completion and Partial Refunds

In the event that the parties mutually agree to a full or partial refund in order to conclude the professional relationship, such refund shall be considered a good-faith resolution intended to close the project.

Any such refund does not constitute an admission of fault or breach of contract by Ana Silvia Lara Publishing LLC, nor does it create an obligation for the company to provide additional services beyond those already delivered.

17. Timeline & Urgent Projects

In cases where expedited timelines are requested by the client, services will be delivered accordingly.

However, no additional responsibility is assumed for outcomes resulting from accelerated processes or time constraints.

18. Print-on-Demand

Books published through print-on-demand services such as Amazon KDP are produced directly by the platform’s printing partners.

Ana Silvia Lara Publishing LLC does not operate, supervise, or control the printing facilities, shipping processes, or physical production of books.

Any issues related to printing quality, binding, spine alignment, color variations, shipping, or delivery must be addressed directly through the platform’s customer support or replacement procedures.

This service consists solely of technical assistance during the submission process.

The author must provide:

final articles ready for submission
complete content for upload
platform credentials or access if necessary

Ana Silvia Lara Publishing LLC is not responsible for writing, approval, acceptance, or publication outcomes of such articles, as these depend on the policies of the academic platform.

If the related publishing project is terminated, any unexecuted academic assistance services will automatically be cancelled.

23. ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI)

Ana Silvia Lara Publishing LLC may utilize artificial intelligence technologies, editorial software tools, and automated systems as part of its professional workflow. These technologies may assist with grammar review, language suggestions, formatting support, structural recommendations, and editorial optimization during the manuscript preparation process.

Artificial intelligence tools are used solely as supportive resources and do not replace professional editorial judgment, human review, or the expertise of the publishing team.

The use of artificial intelligence within the editorial workflow is intended to enhance efficiency, identify potential improvements in language or structure, and assist in preparing manuscripts for publication on digital platforms such as Amazon KDP and other distribution systems.

Clients may independently use artificial intelligence tools to review their manuscripts. However, any revisions, suggestions, interpretations, or conclusions generated by third-party AI systems used by the client will be evaluated by the editorial team within the context of the overall editorial process.

Ana Silvia Lara Publishing LLC is not obligated to implement revisions, corrections, or recommendations generated solely by artificial intelligence systems used by the client.

Artificial intelligence responses are not considered authoritative editorial standards and may not be used as the sole basis to claim editorial errors, negligence, or breach of contract.

Editorial decisions regarding manuscript structure, formatting, grammar, style, and publication preparation remain within the professional judgment of the publisher.

AI-generated suggestions provided by the client may be accepted, modified, or declined at the publisher's discretion based on professional editorial standards and the objectives of the publishing project.

The author retains final responsibility for reviewing, approving, and accepting the manuscript prior to publication.

Ana Silvia Lara Publishing LLC does not guarantee the accuracy, interpretation, or reliability of outputs produced by third-party artificial intelligence tools used by the client or external systems outside the control of the publisher.

24. Author Modifications and Post-Approval Changes

The author is responsible for reviewing and approving the final manuscript prior to publication.

Once the author has approved the manuscript for publication, any subsequent modifications made by the author or by third parties — including changes made using artificial intelligence tools, editing software, or external editors — are the sole responsibility of the author.

Ana Silvia Lara Publishing LLC is not responsible for any errors, inconsistencies, formatting issues, or content alterations that arise from modifications made after the manuscript has been approved or after the files have been delivered to the author.

If the author chooses to modify the manuscript after approval or after publication using artificial intelligence tools or other third-party editing systems, the publisher cannot guarantee that the technical formatting or editorial structure originally prepared for publication will remain intact.

Any additional editing, reformatting, or technical adjustments required after such modifications may be subject to additional service fees.

25. Final Manuscript Approval

Prior to publication, the author is responsible for reviewing the final version of the manuscript, including the edited text, formatting, layout, and cover design.

The author must carefully review all materials and confirm their approval before the manuscript is submitted for publication on any platform, including but not limited to Amazon KDP or other distribution systems.

Once the author provides approval for the final manuscript and publication files, the author acknowledges that the editorial services related to manuscript preparation have been completed.

After final approval has been granted, Ana Silvia Lara Publishing LLC shall not be responsible for claims related to editorial style preferences, subjective opinions regarding editing decisions, formatting preferences, design elements, or other aesthetic considerations.

The author understands that editorial work involves professional judgment and that editing decisions may involve stylistic choices that may vary among editors.

Once the manuscript has been approved and submitted for publication, any additional changes, revisions, or corrections requested by the author may require additional service fees.

By approving the final manuscript, the author confirms that the work is ready for publication and releases Ana Silvia Lara Publishing LLC from any further responsibility related to the approved materials.

The client is responsible for reviewing and approving all materials prior to publication or printing. Once final files are approved by the client and/or by the corresponding platform (including Amazon KDP or other publishing/printing services), they are deemed fully accepted, and no claims regarding content, design, or formatting will be accepted thereafter.
