Each label is checked by the buyer before printing to ensure that it is free of spelling errors. Seller ensures that content and dosage correspond to what is stated for the label claim. Deviation in color or finish compared to the digitally supplied label is not a reason for the buyer to refuse to order and/or claim new adjusted labels.

The buyer can in no way hold the seller responsible for the end result. In addition, the seller is released from any claims or damages that may arise from incorrect claims from the label.
