If The China Box rejects User’s Release, User is welcome to resubmit an alternative Release at any time. In the event we reject a release, we will refund all or part of the payments already made to us. Be sure to clearly read our terms and conditions before you attempt to post or distribute a release that may be illegal to disseminate in China.
