Terms of Service.
Plain-language terms for using adevstudio.xyz. Last updated April 26, 2026.
1. Who runs this site
adevstudio.xyz is the personal portfolio of Aizen Sarmiento, a freelance frontend engineer based in Pampanga, Philippines. Contact: hi@adevstudio.xyz.
These terms apply to the website only. Standalone projects linked from this site (including the Daily Dose of Val Discord bot) have their own separate terms.
2. Use of the site
By visiting or interacting with the site, you agree to:
- Use the site for personal, lawful viewing only.
- Not scrape, mass-download, or programmatically harvest content.
- Not attempt to overload, exploit, or probe the site for vulnerabilities outside good-faith security research.
- Submit only honest information through the contact form.
If you find a security issue, email hi@adevstudio.xyz before disclosing publicly.
3. Content ownership
All site copy, design, code, photographs, and case-study writeups on adevstudio.xyz are the work of Aizen Sarmiento and may not be copied or reused without written permission, except for short fair-use quotations with attribution.
Anything you submit (e.g. via the contact form) remains yours. You grant Operator a limited right to read and reply to it, nothing more.
4. No warranty
The site is provided as-is. Operator does not guarantee uptime, accuracy of any information shown, or fitness for any particular purpose. Live widgets (Discord status, view counter, project uptime checks) may break, lag, or display stale data without notice.
5. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Operator is not liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from use of the site — including content errors, broken links, or downtime.
6. Termination
You can stop using the site at any time. Operator may block IP addresses, rate-limit endpoints, or refuse contact-form submissions if abuse is detected.
7. Changes
These terms may be updated. Material changes will be reflected in the “last updated” date above.
8. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of the Philippines, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.
