Names and figures must be checked by the customer.<\/p>\n

(8)\u00a0\u00a0If the customer insists on the use of his terminology, the translator shall be relieved from any liability resulting from its use.<\/p>\n

(9)\u00a0\u00a0If the client fails to fulfill his obligations or if he provides deficient or incomplete source texts the translator cannot be held responsible for it.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

5.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Acts of God and Event of Illness<\/b><\/h2>\n
