Terms of Service

This ToS is a starting draft, not reviewed by a lawyer. Review before scaling.

1. Scope of service

Sourcework provides research and editing support only: citation cleanup, vetted sources, annotated bibliographies, research syntheses and literature maps you write your own review from, methodology consulting, and feedback on your own draft. We do not write papers you submit as your own work. (See the Academic Integrity acknowledgement.)

2. Your responsibility

You are responsible for following your institution's academic-integrity rules, citation requirements, and submission policies. How you use our deliverables is your decision and your responsibility.

3. No grade guarantee

We deliver research and editing support to professional standards. We do not and cannot guarantee any grade, acceptance, or academic outcome.

4. Refusals and refunds

If a request implies academic dishonesty - submitting our work as your own, completing an assignment for credit, defeating integrity tools - we decline the order and refund any payment.

5. Source accuracy

Every deliverable passes a human quality-assurance review, including verification that cited sources exist and resolve. You are still expected to read and verify sources before relying on them in your own work.

6. Not legal advice

Nothing here is legal advice. These terms are a starting point and should be reviewed by a qualified professional before the business scales.
