Disclaimer & Liability

Last updated: March 6, 2026

Please read this Disclaimer carefully before using the services of Isela Bingham (FluentLanguage.net). By engaging translation or interpretation services, you acknowledge and agree to the terms described below.

1. General Disclaimer

The information and services provided on this website and through engagements with Isela Bingham are intended for general communication and professional language services only. While every effort is made to ensure accuracy, completeness, and quality in all translation and interpretation work, no guarantee of perfect accuracy can be made for any linguistic service.

Language is inherently nuanced. Words, phrases, and concepts do not always have direct equivalents between English and Spanish, and meaning may vary by region, dialect, professional field, and context. Isela Bingham exercises professional judgment in rendering accurate and contextually appropriate translations and interpretations, but such judgment is not infallible.

2. Not Legal Advice

Isela Bingham is a professional interpreter and translator — not a licensed attorney. Translation or interpretation of legal documents, court proceedings, workers' compensation hearings, depositions, or any other legal matter does not constitute legal advice and does not create an attorney-client relationship.

Legal documents translated or interpreted by Isela Bingham are provided as linguistic services only. You should always consult a licensed attorney for guidance on legal matters. Isela Bingham is not responsible for legal outcomes, decisions made by courts or agencies, or any consequences arising from the use of translated or interpreted legal materials in legal proceedings.

3. Not Medical Advice

Isela Bingham is a professional interpreter and translator — not a licensed medical or mental health professional. Interpretation or translation of medical reports, psychological evaluations, healthcare appointments, therapy sessions, or any health-related documentation does not constitute medical, psychiatric, or clinical advice and does not create a doctor-patient or therapist-client relationship.

Medical and psychological documents translated or interpreted by Isela Bingham are provided as linguistic services only. You should always consult a licensed healthcare professional for guidance on medical matters. Isela Bingham is not responsible for medical outcomes, treatment decisions, or any consequences arising from the use of translated or interpreted medical materials.

4. Not Educational or Therapeutic Advice

Interpretation services provided in educational settings — including Individualized Education Program (IEP) meetings, school board meetings, and special education assessments — are linguistic services only. They do not constitute educational consulting, psychological evaluation, or therapeutic advice. Educational decisions for students should be made by qualified educators, psychologists, and the families involved.

5. Accuracy of Translations

Isela Bingham strives to produce accurate, faithful, and professionally appropriate translations of all documents. However, the following limitations apply:

  • Human interpretation: Translation involves professional judgment. Two qualified translators may render the same source text differently while both being accurate. Minor stylistic or terminological variation does not constitute an error.
  • Source document quality: The accuracy of any translation is dependent on the clarity, completeness, and accuracy of the original source document. Isela Bingham is not responsible for errors, ambiguities, or omissions in the source material.
  • Specialized terminology: In highly technical legal, medical, or psychological documents, certain terminology may require contextual judgment calls. Isela Bingham will apply her professional expertise, but in cases of extreme technical complexity, additional review by a domain-specific professional is recommended.
  • Regional and dialectal variation: Spanish is spoken across dozens of countries with significant regional variation. Translations are rendered in standard professional Spanish unless otherwise agreed upon in writing.

6. Interpretation Services

Simultaneous, consecutive, and sight interpretation are real-time linguistic services. By their nature, interpretation occurs under time constraints that may limit the ability to consult references or pause for clarification. While Isela Bingham maintains the highest professional standards, interpretation services carry inherent limitations that differ from written translation, and perfect word-for-word reproduction of spoken content cannot be guaranteed.

Parties relying on interpreted communication — including in legal proceedings, medical appointments, or educational meetings — are encouraged to speak at a measured pace, use clear language, and request clarification when needed.

7. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Isela Bingham and FluentLanguage.net shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages arising out of or related to:

  • Any translation or interpretation service provided;
  • Reliance on any translated document or interpreted communication;
  • Errors, omissions, or inaccuracies in translated or interpreted content;
  • Decisions made by courts, agencies, medical professionals, or educational institutions based on translated or interpreted materials;
  • Any use or misuse of information provided through this website.

In all cases, the maximum liability of Isela Bingham shall not exceed the total fees paid for the specific service giving rise to the claim.

8. Third-Party Reliance

Translation and interpretation services are provided for the benefit of the client who engaged the service. Third parties who rely on translated documents or interpreted communications do so at their own risk. Isela Bingham does not accept liability to any third party who was not a direct party to the service engagement.

9. No Warranty

All services provided by Isela Bingham are rendered on a professional best-efforts basis. No warranty, express or implied — including any warranty of fitness for a particular purpose, merchantability, or non-infringement — is made with respect to any translation, interpretation, or other service provided.

10. Confidentiality

Isela Bingham treats all client materials, documents, and communications as confidential. Information shared for the purpose of translation or interpretation will not be disclosed to third parties except as required by law. HIPAA-compliant handling is observed for all health-related documents and communications.

Confidentiality obligations do not apply to information that is already publicly available or that Isela Bingham is compelled to disclose by law or court order.

11. Errors and Corrections

If you believe a completed translation contains a material error, please notify Isela Bingham in writing within 30 days of delivery. Isela Bingham will review the concern and, if a material error is confirmed, will make reasonable corrections at no additional charge. Notification after 30 days, or claims regarding subjective stylistic preferences rather than substantive errors, fall outside the scope of this correction commitment.

12. Governing Law

This Disclaimer and any disputes arising from the services of Isela Bingham (FluentLanguage.net) are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Any legal action arising from these terms shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in San Joaquin County, California.

13. Changes to This Disclaimer

We reserve the right to update or modify this Disclaimer at any time. Changes will be reflected by the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of this website or engagement of services after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised Disclaimer.
