Sales and payment processing

Credits on shipglobal.dev are sold by Lemon Squeezy, LLC (a Stripe, Inc. company) acting as Merchant of Record. Lemon Squeezy is therefore your seller: the purchase contract for credits is concluded between you and Lemon Squeezy, and Lemon Squeezy processes the payment, handles sales tax and VAT, and issues your invoice.

Your contract partner for the translation service itself — for what the credits actually buy — is Balane GmbH. Invoices for credit purchases come from Lemon Squeezy, not from us.

Consumer dispute resolution

We are neither willing nor obliged to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board.

The European Commission’s Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) platform was discontinued on 20 July 2025. A reference to it is therefore no longer given.

Liability for content

As a service provider, we are responsible for our own content on these pages under general law pursuant to § 7(1) DDG. However, under §§ 8 to 10 DDG we are not obliged to monitor transmitted or stored third-party information, or to investigate circumstances that indicate unlawful activity.

Obligations to remove or block the use of information under general law remain unaffected. Liability in this respect is only possible from the point in time at which we become aware of a specific infringement. Upon becoming aware of such infringements, we will remove the content immediately.

Liability for links

Our website contains links to external third-party sites over whose content we have no influence. We therefore cannot accept any liability for this third-party content. The respective provider or operator of the linked pages is always responsible for their content. Upon becoming aware of legal infringements, we will remove such links immediately.

Copyright

The content and works created by the site operators on these pages are subject to German copyright law. Reproduction, adaptation, distribution and any form of exploitation beyond the limits of copyright require the written consent of the respective author or creator.

The content you upload for translation remains exclusively yours. We acquire no rights in it beyond what is necessary to perform the translation.
