Terms and Conditions

Welcome to the International Impact Book Awards website (the “Site”). By accessing or using this Site, you agree to comply with and be bound by the following Terms and Conditions. Please read them carefully. If you do not agree with these terms, please do not use the Site or our services.

1. General Information

The International Impact Book Awards (IIBA) is a global awards platform that recognizes outstanding books from authors and publishers worldwide. The Site provides information about award categories, submission guidelines, events, and other related services.

2. Eligibility

Authors, publishers, and representatives submitting entries must be at least 18 years old and legally able to enter into binding agreements. Submissions are open to both self-published and traditionally published works that meet the eligibility requirements listed on the submission form.

3. Submission and Fees

  • All entries must be submitted through the official online form.

  • Each submission must include a copy of the book in PDF or eBook format.

  • Entry fees, when applicable, are non-refundable once the submission is processed.

  • Multiple category entries require separate payments unless otherwise stated.

  • Free entry promotions or discounts, if offered, are subject to change without notice.

4. Judging Process

Our judging team follows a structured, multi-step evaluation system designed to ensure fairness, consistency, and professionalism. Each submission is reviewed by multiple trained judges who score the book across key literary elements such as writing quality, originality, clarity, reader engagement, and overall impact. Scores are then averaged to create a final rating. To maintain integrity, we do not disclose specific scoring rubrics or individual judge feedback. While each category has its own judging criteria, every book is treated with the same standardized process.

5. Awards and Recognition

Winners and finalists will be announced on the official IIBA website and social media platforms. Award recipients may receive digital seals, trophies, and certificates as described in the program details. IIBA reserves the right to adjust recognition methods or event formats as needed.

6. Intellectual Property

All materials submitted remain the property of the author or publisher. By entering, you grant IIBA permission to use your book title, author name, cover image, and promotional materials for marketing and publicity related to the awards program.

7. Event Attendance

Tickets for events such as the Grand Gala or Author of the Year ceremony are sold separately. All sales are final unless otherwise stated in writing. IIBA reserves the right to modify event dates, locations, or formats due to unforeseen circumstances.

8. Refund Policy

All payments made for submissions, tickets, or merchandise are non-refundable unless otherwise specified. In cases of duplicate transactions or processing errors, please contact us at [insert contact email] for assistance.

9. Privacy Policy

We respect your privacy. Information collected during submission or event registration is used only for award administration, communication, and marketing purposes in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
