These terms govern your use of this website, adeptwebdev.com (the "Site"), operated by Adept, a South Dakota limited liability company doing business as Adept Web Dev ("we", "us", or "our"). By using the Site, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

These terms cover the Site itself. They do not govern any paid work we do for clients — that work is covered by the separate written agreement we sign for each engagement, which controls if it conflicts with anything here.

Using the Site

You may use the Site for lawful purposes only. You agree not to misuse it — for example, by attempting to disrupt or attack it, gain unauthorized access to it, scrape or harvest data from it in an abusive or automated way, or use it to break the law or infringe someone's rights.

Our content

The Site and its contents — including the text, design, graphics, logos, and the "Adept" and "Adept Web Dev" names — are owned by us or our licensors and are protected by intellectual-property laws. You may view and share our Ideas posts, but you may not copy, reproduce, or reuse our content or branding for your own commercial purposes without our written permission.

Comments and submissions

When you post a comment or send us a message, you are responsible for its content and you confirm you have the right to share it. You agree not to submit anything that is unlawful, infringing, deceptive, hateful, harassing, sexually explicit, spam or advertising, or otherwise objectionable.

Comments are screened automatically and may be approved, held, refused, or removed at our discretion. We are under no obligation to publish any comment, and we may remove content or restrict participation at any time and for any reason. By posting a comment, you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to display, store, and moderate it in connection with the Site.

Submitting the contact form does not by itself create a client relationship; we begin work only under a separate signed agreement.

No professional advice

Our Ideas posts and other Site content are general information, offered as-is. They are not professional, legal, financial, or technical advice for your specific situation, and you should not rely on them as a substitute for advice tailored to you.

Disclaimers

The Site is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure, or that its content is complete or current. The Site may link to third-party sites we do not control and are not responsible for.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, revenue, or profits, arising out of or related to your use of the Site — even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from any claims, losses, or expenses arising out of your use of the Site or your violation of these terms.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of South Dakota, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute relating to the Site or these terms will be brought in the state or federal courts located in South Dakota.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above. Your continued use of the Site after a change means you accept the updated terms.
