1. In this Terms of Service Agreement ("Agreement"),
"you" and "your" refer to each customer.
"We," "us," and "our" refer
to Business Development Centre (a division of Centaur Group
Inc.), its agents, contractors, directors, employees and officers.
"Service," in its singular or plural form, refers
to the services provided by us.
2. An order is placed at the time it is submitted to Business
Development Centre via the Internet, telephone, facsimile
or mail. Your order may not be modified after it is submitted,
except upon prior authorization by Business Development Centre.
After you receive this prior authorization, a modification
to the order is valid only after Business Development Centre
receives a signed, written request from you, via facsimile.
No refunds available after we process your order.
3.No fees paid to the government,
or to any agencies accepting money on behalf of the government,
can be refunded under any circumstances.

refunds are available once you submit the order.
If the customer decides to cancel the order, the customer will
be entitled only to receive a refund for government filing
fees that have not been paid
to the government or it's agents. Once government fees have been paid,
no refund is possible.
If an error is made on the part of Business Development Centre,
we will make all reasonable efforts to remedy the problem
and to amend any necessary documentation. Alternatively, we
will refund the service fees paid to Business Development
Centre. The choice between these two remedies, as to which
one is most appropriate for the situation, will be made at
the sole discretion of Business Development Centre.
