Terms and Conditions

ACCURACY OF SPECIFICATIONS:
Quotations are based on our interpretation of the information you the client has provided. Advanced Labels may revise any quote at the time of submission if copy, art, disks and/or other information do not conform with the information on which the original quote and purchase is based.

ARTWORK ALTERATIONS/CORRECTIONS:
Any artwork revisions or corrections required or requested may be billable at our current rates.

COLOR PROOFING:
Color proofs are used to simulate how the printed piece will look. Because of the differences in equipment, color printers and copiers, paper, inks, and other conditions between color proofing and production pressroom operations, a reasonable variation in color between color proofs and the completed job is to be expected. When variation of this kind occurs, this should be considered an acceptable variance unless otherwise stated in writing prior to or on your purchase order. A proof or press approval becomes a binding contract between you and Advanced Labels.

CREATIVE WORK:
No use shall be made of any creative work or design or any derivation of ideas from it except by written permission of Advanced Labels. Compensation (if any) is to be determined by Advanced Labels.

CUSTOMER FURNISHED MATERIALS:
Materials furnished by the customer, or their representatives such as disks, color separations, special dies, plates or other materials must be usable by Advanced Labels without alteration or repair. Items not meeting this requirement may be repaired by the customer or by Advanced Labels and may be billable at the current rates.

CUSTOMER'S PROPERTY:
Advanced Labels will only maintain fire and extended coverage on property belonging to the client while the property is in our possession. Advanced Labels' liability for this property will not exceed the amount recoverable from the insurance claim. Additional insurance coverage may be obtained if it is requested in writing, and if the premium is paid to Advanced Labels for such extended coverage.

DELIVERY:
Unless stated otherwise, the price quoted is for a single shipment, FOB origin, without storage. If we have shipped the order as expected, we cannot be responsible for delayed delivery due to a common carrier (e.g. UPS, FedEx, DHL, US Mail) not meeting their delivery promise. Please contact us and we will see that any refund of freight charges received by Advanced Labels is remitted to you.

ELECTRONIC MANUSCRIPT OR IMAGE:
It is your responsibility to maintain a copy of the original file. Advanced Labels is not responsible for accidental damage to media supplied or for the accuracy of the supplied files. We make no claim or promise about our ability to work with files submitted in digital format and no liability is assumed for problems that may arise. Any additional translating, editing, or reformatting needed to utilize your supplied files may be billable at our current rates.

EXPERIMENTAL WORK:
Experimental or preliminary work performed at your request may be billable at our current rates. This work cannot be used without Advanced Labels’ written consent.

This will apply regardless of responsibility for negligence.
Copyrights: You warrant that the subject matter to be printed is not copyrighted by a third party. You also recognize that because subject matter does not have to bear a copyright notice in order to be protected by copyright law, absence of such notice does not necessarily assure the right to reproduce.

To support these warranties you agree to indemnify and hold Advanced Labels harmless for all liability, damages, and attorney fees that may be incurred in any legal action connected with copyright infringement involving the work produced or provided.
