1. Accuracy
Layout
You are 100% responsible for the accuracy of your layouts. Please proofread all layouts carefully. Postal Regulations are subject to change and you are also 100% responsible for complying with current USPS Postal Regulations as outlined on our website:
All layouts assembled (typeset) by G Advertising LLC, d.b.a G Printing will have (www.printwithg.com), d.b.a. G Photography (www.createwithg.com) printed in 6pt. font on the backside of the card. G Advertising LLC reserves the right to refuse to print any material that G Advertising LLC determines, in its sole discretion, is immoral, illegal or inappropriate for any reason for distribution in the United States Postal Service mail stream. If your material is deemed unacceptable, you will be notified promptly and permitted to change the content or layout to fit our requirements. You will not be charged for any services that are performed by G Advertising LLC on any job that is denied for the reasons described in this paragraph.
Color
All cards are placed on our printing press with other jobs or "gang printed." G Advertising LLC will reproduce color from submitted transparencies, slides, photos or digital layouts as closely and accurately as possible, but cannot exactly match color and density (as viewed in a 5000K light booth) because of limitations in the printing process, as well as neighboring image ink requirements. The accuracy of each color reproduction is guaranteed to be within a minimum of 85-90% of the original image you submit. G Advertising LLC accepts no responsibility whatsoever for color variations between submitted images and the actual artwork or product they represent. All colors contained within any RGB digital file will be converted to G Advertising LLC 's CMYK color space. This may cause the RGB colors to visually change due to color space differences. You should also note that your computer monitor's calibration affects the colors displayed on your monitor's screen. The colors on the printed cards may differ from what you see displayed when viewing your layout via G Advertising LLC 's online final approval process. The online proof only presents the design layout, text accuracy, image proportion and placement, but not color or density. For reprints, G Advertising LLC strongly suggests that you mail a hard copy of the original order for an accurate color review. Also, if your order is color critical, G Advertising LLC strongly suggests you purchase a hard copy color proof from G Advertising LLC.
2. Payment
The fees for G Advertising LLC products and services, which include the cost of processing, printing, shipping and/or mailing, and any other charges applicable, are due and payable together with the submission of an order. G Advertising LLC requires pre-payment on all orders with the exception of certain customers pre-approved for Credit Terms. G Advertising LLC grants Credit Terms on the print portion of orders only. All mailing services and postage related fees must be prepaid. Please note that no orders will be mailed until an approved and signed mailing services invoice is returned from the customer authorizing payment. G Advertising LLC accepts Purchase Orders from government and educational institutions with prior approval and requires the submission of the PO number at the same time the order is submitted. Any amount due to G Advertising LLC, which is not paid, may result in non-delivery of the order, and interest charges as allowed by law. Customers are responsible for all related collection costs, legal fees and interest. All returned checks will be charged a fee of $25.
Sales Tax Policy
