Terms of Service

1. Website scope

This website presents the portfolio, services, writing, and contact options of Viktor Shmatko, an independent frontend developer and website consultant.

The information on this website is provided for general project evaluation. It does not create a client relationship, contract, or obligation until a separate written agreement is accepted by both parties.

2. Project inquiries

Submitting a contact form or reaching out through a freelance platform is an inquiry only. Project scope, timeline, deliverables, communication process, payment terms, ownership, and revisions are confirmed separately before work begins.

Viktor may decline projects that are not a good fit, are outside the stated expertise, or conflict with availability, quality standards, or professional values.

3. Website content and intellectual property

The text, design direction, layout, visuals, code patterns, and portfolio presentation on this website are protected by applicable intellectual property laws unless otherwise stated.

You may reference the website for evaluation, but you may not copy, republish, resell, scrape, or redistribute the content as your own work without permission.

4. Acceptable use

You agree not to misuse this website, attempt unauthorized access, submit harmful code, overload the service, spam forms, or use the website in a way that interferes with its normal operation.

Automated scraping, abusive requests, fraudulent inquiries, and attempts to bypass security controls may be blocked.

5. Third-party links

This website may link to third-party services such as GitHub, Fiverr, Upwork, Contra, LinkedIn, company websites, or external portfolio references.

Those websites are controlled by their own operators and have their own terms, privacy practices, and security controls. Viktor is not responsible for third-party content or policies.

6. No guaranteed outcomes

Website strategy, SEO foundations, frontend performance, and conversion improvements are handled with professional care, but no specific ranking, traffic, revenue, or lead-generation outcome is guaranteed.

Results depend on market conditions, offer quality, audience, content, analytics, ongoing iteration, and other factors outside a single implementation.

7. Limitation of liability

This website is provided as-is. Viktor aims to keep the website accurate, fast, and available, but does not guarantee uninterrupted access or error-free content.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Viktor is not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, or business losses related to website use or reliance on website content.
