8. Subscriptions and Billing
Paid subscriptions are billed monthly or annually in advance and renew automatically.

After cancellation, your data is retained for 90 days before permanent deletion.

2. Description of Service
ManufacturingKit provides manufacturing document templates and tools for non-conformance reports, batch record templates, production work orders, QC inspection reports, corrective action requests, and NCR generators. Our tools process user-provided inputs and generate structured manufacturing documents. The Service is offered "as is" and may be modified, suspended, or discontinued at any time without notice.
7. Template Disclaimer
All manufacturing templates on ManufacturingKit are starting-point templates only and are not intended as professional advice. Generated documents do not replace your organization's quality management system (QMS) or regulatory compliance requirements. You must review and customize all templates to meet your specific industry standards (ISO, FDA, GMP, etc.) before use. Our tools are aids for document creation, not substitutes for professional quality or regulatory consultation.
8. Professional Disclaimer
Not Professional Advice: ManufacturingKit does not provide quality management, regulatory, engineering, or legal advice. Content and templates are for general informational purposes only. Always consult with qualified quality engineers, regulatory specialists, or legal counsel before relying on generated documents for manufacturing operations.
No Guarantee: We do not warrant the accuracy, completeness, or suitability of any document outputs for your particular situation or regulatory requirements. You use the Service at your own risk.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of any account credentials and for all activities under your account.
