Terms and Conditions

Using the website

You may browse the site, use its tools and take part in its features for lawful purposes. Keep your sign-in details secure and tell us promptly if you suspect someone else is using your account. Use only accounts, project areas and information you are authorised to access.

Do not impersonate anyone, send spam, introduce harmful code or interfere with the site or its security. We may remove material or restrict access where reasonably necessary to address misuse, security problems or unlawful activity.

Articles, code and downloads

You may copy and share our published articles and code examples with credit to Joel Lipman and, where practical, a link to the original page. Follow any licence or reuse terms displayed with specific material. Third-party content, software and trademarks are subject to their owners’ rights.

Articles and free tools provide general technical information. Examples and results can depend on software versions, data and configuration. Check that they suit your purpose and test code in a development environment before using it in production.

Comments and other submissions

You keep any rights you hold in what you submit. By posting a public comment, you give us permission to moderate and display it as part of the discussion. Submit only material you have the right to share. Keep confidential information, credentials and other people’s personal information out of public comments. Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle personal information.

Paid services and digital products

For consultancy and development work, refer to the agreed proposal or client agreement for the scope, fees and delivery terms. For online purchases, check the product description, price, billing frequency and any order-specific terms shown at checkout. Contact us if you need help with an order, cancellation or refund.

Your statutory consumer rights apply where relevant, including any rights to cancel an order or obtain a remedy for faulty digital content or services.

Third-party websites

The site may link to other websites, tools or payment services. Those services operate under their own terms and privacy policies. Check their terms before providing information or making a payment.

Availability and responsibility

Pages, tools and downloads may change or become temporarily unavailable. You retain your statutory consumer rights. We remain liable for fraud, death or personal injury caused by negligence, and for any other liability that the law prohibits us from limiting.

Changes and contact

We may update these terms as the site changes. The revision date appears at the top of this page. Any existing paid agreement remains subject to its own terms and applicable law. Use the contact form for questions about these terms or to raise a complaint.
