Last updated: 15 October 2026
1. Introduction
Welcome to the personal portfolio website of Stanley Adene.
These Terms of Service govern your access to and use of this website, including its content, project enquiry form, professional information, and links to external platforms.
The website provides information about services that may include:
WordPress website development.
Divi and Elementor design and implementation.
Website maintenance and technical support.
Website redesign and improvement.
Search engine optimization (SEO).
Related website consulting and support.
By accessing or using this website, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the website.
2. Website Information and Portfolio
This website is intended to showcase professional experience, skills, services, and selected work.
Although reasonable efforts are made to keep information accurate and current, descriptions, examples, pricing information, availability, and service details may change without notice.
Portfolio examples are provided to demonstrate relevant experience. Unless expressly stated, their inclusion does not imply ownership of every component, endorsement by a third party, or a guarantee that the same results will be achieved for another project.
3. Service Enquiries
Visitors may use the contact form or published contact details to enquire about services.
Submitting an enquiry does not create a contract, establish a client relationship, or guarantee availability, acceptance of work, a quotation, or a particular delivery date.
Before work begins, the parties should agree on the relevant scope, deliverables, fees, timelines, payment arrangements, responsibilities, and other material conditions in writing.
4. Project Agreements and Payments
Where a service engagement is accepted, the specific written proposal, quotation, statement of work, or service agreement will govern the project.
Depending on the engagement, project terms may cover:
Scope of work and deliverables.
Project milestones and deadlines.
Fees, deposits, and payment schedules.
Client-provided materials, access credentials, and approvals.
Revisions and additional work.
Maintenance responsibilities and ongoing support.
Cancellation, termination, and handover arrangements.
If these Terms conflict with a signed project agreement, the project agreement will prevail for that engagement to the extent of the conflict.
No fee, refund, delivery, or performance guarantee is created merely by browsing this website.
5. Client Responsibilities
Clients engaging my services are responsible for providing accurate project information, lawful instructions, necessary content and assets, appropriate website access, and timely feedback or approvals.
Clients must ensure that they have the rights and permissions required to use any text, images, logos, software, data, or other materials they provide.
Delays caused by missing information, unavailable access, late approvals, or third-party services may affect project schedules and deliverables. Any resulting adjustments should be addressed under the applicable project agreement.
Clients should maintain appropriate backups and retain control of their domain names, hosting accounts, and essential business credentials unless otherwise agreed in writing.
6. SEO, Performance, and Technical Limitations
SEO, website performance, and digital visibility depend on many factors, including search engine algorithms, competition, website history, hosting, content quality, technical conditions, and third-party systems.
No specific search ranking, traffic level, lead volume, revenue, conversion rate, or business result is guaranteed unless a particular commitment is expressly documented in a separate written agreement.
Website maintenance and technical support are provided according to the agreed scope. Issues involving hosting providers, plugins, themes, APIs, search engines, or other third parties may be outside my direct control.
7. Intellectual Property
Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the content published on this website, including original text, branding, layout, and original design elements, is protected by applicable intellectual property laws.
You may view the website and share links to its publicly accessible pages for lawful, personal, or professional purposes.
You may not reproduce, republish, sell, distribute, or commercially exploit protected website content without appropriate permission, except where permitted by law.
Ownership and licensing of materials created during a client project will be determined by the applicable written project agreement. Third-party themes, plugins, fonts, images, and software remain subject to their own licenses and terms.
8. Acceptable Use
You agree not to:
Use this website for unlawful, fraudulent, or misleading purposes.
Attempt unauthorized access to the website, server, or administrative systems.
Introduce malware, malicious code, or harmful content.
Abuse the contact form through spam, automated submissions, or harassment.
Copy or misuse protected content in violation of applicable law.
Interfere with the availability, security, or normal operation of the website.
Access may be restricted where reasonably necessary to protect the website, its visitors, or its systems, subject to applicable law.
9. Third-Party Services and Links
This website may link to third-party platforms, including LinkedIn, Upwork, hosting providers, software vendors, and other external services.
These services are operated independently and may have their own terms, privacy policies, availability conditions, and fees. I am not responsible for their independent operations or policies.
Any third-party tools used during a client project will be subject to their applicable licensing and service terms.
10. Website Availability
Reasonable efforts may be made to maintain the website, but uninterrupted availability is not guaranteed.
The website may occasionally be unavailable due to maintenance, hosting problems, security incidents, technical failures, or circumstances outside reasonable control.
Content, features, and services may be updated, suspended, or discontinued as needed.
11. Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability
To the extent permitted by applicable law, this website and its general informational content are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis.
Nothing on this website constitutes a guarantee of a particular technical, commercial, financial, or SEO outcome.
To the extent permitted by law, I will not be liable for indirect or consequential losses arising solely from general use of this website or reliance on its informational content.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability where such exclusion or limitation is prohibited by law. Liability arising from an agreed client project will be governed by the applicable project agreement and relevant law.
12. Indemnity
To the extent permitted by applicable law, you are responsible for losses or claims arising from your unlawful use of this website, your infringement of third-party rights, or materials you provide without the necessary permissions.
This section does not apply to the extent that a claim results from conduct for which responsibility cannot lawfully be excluded or transferred.
13. Privacy
Your use of this website is also subject to the Privacy Policy published on this website, which explains how personal information may be collected and processed.
By submitting information through the contact form, you confirm that the information you provide is accurate to the best of your knowledge and that you are authorized to provide it.
14. Changes to These Terms
These Terms may be updated periodically to reflect changes in website functionality, services, or legal requirements. Updates will be published on this page with a revised date.
The Terms applicable to an existing client engagement will also be subject to any signed project agreement and applicable legal requirements.
15. Governing Law
These Terms will be interpreted in accordance with the laws applicable to the relevant relationship and transaction.
Where Nigerian law applies, applicable Nigerian law will govern, subject to any mandatory legal requirements or valid contractual arrangements concerning jurisdiction.
Nothing in this section removes any rights that cannot lawfully be waived.
