Terms of service

These terms cover your use of this website. The work we do for clients is governed by a separate written agreement signed for each engagement — nothing on this page changes or replaces it.

Last updated: [[MONTH YEAR]]

Acceptance of these terms

By using ottotell.com you agree to these terms. If you do not agree with them, please do not use the site. In these terms, “Ottotell”, “we” and “us” mean [[Ottotell LLC — your registered legal entity name]], and “you” means the person or organization using the site.

The website is information, not advice

Everything on this site is general information about our services and our point of view. It is not professional, technical, legal, financial, tax or security advice, and it is not a recommendation for your specific situation. Technology decisions depend on facts that a web page cannot know. Do not act on anything here without advice tailored to your circumstances.

No consulting relationship is created

Reading this site, submitting the contact form, or having an initial conversation with us does not create a consulting relationship or any obligation on either side. A relationship begins only when both parties sign a written engagement agreement setting out scope, deliverables, fees and terms. Until then, either of us may walk away for any reason.

Please do not send confidential or sensitive information through the contact form. If you need confidentiality before a detailed discussion, tell us and we will put a non-disclosure agreement in place first — we are happy to do so.

Acceptable use

You agree not to:

  • use the site for any unlawful purpose, or in a way that could damage or impair it;
  • attempt to gain unauthorised access to the site, its server, or any connected system;
  • submit false, misleading, abusive or automated form submissions, or use the contact form to send unsolicited commercial messages;
  • scrape, harvest or systematically extract content from the site for commercial purposes without our written permission;
  • introduce malicious code, or attempt to overload or disrupt the site.

Intellectual property

The content of this site — text, design, graphics, logos, code and structure — is owned by Ottotell or used with permission, and is protected by copyright and other intellectual property law. You may read, print and share pages for your own business purposes, including circulating them internally. You may not republish our content as your own, sell it, or use our name or logo to imply an endorsement or partnership that does not exist.

Quoting a passage with attribution and a link back is welcome and requires no permission.

Information you send us

Personal information you submit is handled as described in our privacy policy. If you send us suggestions, feedback or ideas about our services or this website, you agree we may use them without obligation or compensation. This does not apply to confidential information shared under a signed non-disclosure agreement or an engagement.

Where we link to another website, it is because we thought it would be useful. We do not control those sites, do not endorse everything on them, and are not responsible for their content, availability or privacy practices. Visiting them is at your own discretion.

Availability and accuracy

We aim to keep the site accurate and available, but we do not guarantee either. Content may become out of date, particularly in a field that moves as quickly as this one. We may change, suspend or withdraw any part of the site at any time without notice.

Disclaimer of warranties

To the fullest extent permitted by law, this website is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Ottotell and its personnel will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, business or goodwill, arising out of your use of — or inability to use — this website, even if we have been advised of the possibility.

Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited, including liability for fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, or death or personal injury caused by negligence. Liability arising from a client engagement is governed by that engagement's agreement, not by this page.

Indemnity

You agree to indemnify Ottotell against claims, losses and reasonable costs arising from your misuse of this website or your breach of these terms.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of [[Your State]], United States, without regard to its conflict of law rules. Any dispute relating to this website will be brought in the state or federal courts located in [[Your County and State]], and you and we each consent to that jurisdiction.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. The version published here is the one that applies, and the date at the top shows when it last changed. Continuing to use the site after a change means you accept the updated terms.
