Terms of Use

1. Agreement and scope

These Terms govern your use of lindseywebsolutions.com and general LWS public content and tools. By using them, you agree to these Terms. A signed proposal, statement of work, order, subscription agreement, or product-specific terms control if they conflict with these general Terms.

2. Public product boundaries

• LWS Studio: estimates are planning aids rather than binding proposals. Portal access and client project data are confidential and governed by the applicable agreement and client instructions.
• WebsiteLinter: automated reports are informational snapshots, not warranties, certifications, penetration tests, legal advice, or guarantees of accessibility, security, rankings, or revenue. Scan only public URLs you own or are authorized to assess.
• EZHomelab: managed infrastructure and third-party applications are governed by the service’s specific terms, billing, backup, cancellation, and acceptable-use rules.
• Sompt: analysis and prompts are creative aids, not determinations of copyright ownership, non-infringement, authorship, originality, licensing rights, or commercial suitability. Users remain responsible for their source material and outputs.
• SlipVerdict: the service analyzes completed events and is not a sportsbook, gambling operator, law firm, regulator, financial adviser, prediction service, or guarantee of payment.
• Emerald Online 3DS: an unofficial fan-made homebrew project, not affiliated with Nintendo, The Pokémon Company, or Game Freak. Users must supply their own legally obtained compatible game copy. LWS does not host, sell, request, or distribute ROMs, game files, keys, copyrighted artwork, or copyrighted audio.

3. Acceptable use

You may not use an LWS property to violate law or third-party rights; access a system without authorization; upload malware; evade security or rate limits; interfere with service; scrape personal or confidential data; impersonate another person; submit credentials or regulated sensitive information to a general form; or use results to misrepresent compliance, certification, endorsement, or a guaranteed outcome.

We may limit, suspend, or terminate access when reasonably necessary to protect users, clients, systems, legal rights, service availability, or third parties; investigate suspected misuse; comply with law; or address nonpayment or a material breach. Where practical and appropriate, we will provide notice and an opportunity to cure.

4. Professional services and clients

Website content, estimates, examples, and consultations do not create a client relationship. A client relationship begins only through an authorized written agreement. Scope, fees, ownership, licenses, confidentiality, acceptance, warranties, support, and termination are governed by that agreement. We do not identify clients or publish their work as a case study without permission.

5. Your submissions and authorization

You retain ownership of content and data you submit. You represent that you have the rights and authority needed to submit them and direct the requested processing. You grant LWS and its contracted providers a limited, non-exclusive license to host, copy, transmit, analyze, and display the submission only as needed to provide, secure, support, and improve the requested service, comply with law, and enforce these Terms. This license ends when the information is deleted, except for lawful retention, backups, and de-identified information.

If you voluntarily provide feedback, you permit LWS to use it without restriction or compensation, but we will not attribute it to you or disclose confidential client information without permission.

6. Domain, pricing, payments, and refunds

Domain availability, renewal costs, third-party prices, search results, and technical findings can change. A displayed result is not a reservation or purchase. LWS confirms registrant ownership, current pricing, renewal terms, and the work to be performed before collecting payment for a manually arranged registration.

Prices exclude taxes and third-party charges unless stated otherwise. Billing interval, renewal, cancellation, refund eligibility, service credits, and data-export or teardown timing are governed by the checkout disclosure, product-specific terms, or signed agreement presented for that purchase. Mandatory consumer rights are not limited.

7. Intellectual property

LWS names, branding, original site design, software, reports, and content are owned by LWS or licensed to us. You may use public content for ordinary personal or internal business reference, but may not resell, remove notices from, falsely attribute, systematically copy, reverse engineer, or create a competing dataset or service from protected material except where law or an applicable open-source license permits.

8. Third-party services

Links and integrations may lead to services we do not control. Their terms, licenses, availability, security, and privacy practices apply. Names and marks belong to their owners; reference does not imply sponsorship or endorsement.

9. Disclaimers

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, PUBLIC SITES, FREE TOOLS, REPORTS, AND INFORMATION ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” LWS DISCLAIMS IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT GUARANTEE AVAILABILITY, ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, SECURITY, ACCESSIBILITY CONFORMANCE, SEARCH POSITION, BUSINESS RESULTS, DATA RECOVERY, OR A THIRD PARTY’S ACTION.

10. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, LWS AND ITS MEMBERS, PERSONNEL, CONTRACTORS, AND AFFILIATES WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, GOODWILL, USE, OR DATA. FOR A PAID SERVICE, AGGREGATE LIABILITY WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT PAID TO LWS FOR THAT SERVICE DURING THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM. FOR A FREE PUBLIC SERVICE, AGGREGATE LIABILITY WILL NOT EXCEED US$100. THESE LIMITS DO NOT APPLY WHERE LAW PROHIBITS THEM.

11. Indemnity

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to defend and indemnify LWS against third-party claims arising from your unlawful or unauthorized use, your submitted content, your infringement of third-party rights, or your material breach of these Terms.

12. Governing law and disputes

Ohio law governs these Terms, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Before filing a claim, contact us and allow 30 days for informal resolution. Unless a written agreement provides another process, exclusive venue will be the state or federal courts serving Franklin County, Ohio, and each party consents to personal jurisdiction there.

13. Changes, force majeure, and general terms

We may update these Terms prospectively. Material changes to a paid ongoing service will be communicated through a reasonable notice method. We are not responsible for delay or failure caused by events beyond our reasonable control. If a provision is unenforceable, it will be limited to the minimum extent necessary and the remainder will continue. A failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination—including ownership, confidentiality, disclaimers, liability limits, indemnity, and dispute terms—will survive.
