Terms & Conditions

The rules for using this website. Last updated July 2, 2026.

Last updated: July 2, 2026

These Terms & Conditions (“Terms”) govern your use of blacklabdev.com (the “Site”), operated by Black Lab Development (“Black Lab,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), a web development studio based in Cincinnati, Ohio. By accessing or using the Site, you agree to these Terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the Site.

These Terms cover use of the website itself. They don't replace or modify any separate proposal, statement of work, or services agreement you sign with us to build or maintain a website — those documents govern the actual engagement and control if there's any conflict.

Acceptance of Terms

By browsing the Site, submitting the contact form, or otherwise interacting with it, you confirm that you've read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy. We may update these Terms from time to time; continued use of the Site after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

Use of the Site

You agree to use the Site only for lawful purposes. You agree not to:

  • Scrape, crawl, or harvest content from the Site using automated means, except for standard search engine indexing.
  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Site, its systems, or related networks.
  • Interfere with or disrupt the Site's functionality, security, or performance.
  • Reverse engineer, decompile, or copy the Site's underlying code or design for commercial use.
  • Use the contact form to send spam, phishing attempts, or unsolicited commercial messages.
  • Misrepresent your identity or affiliation when contacting us.

Intellectual Property

Unless otherwise noted, all content on the Site — including text, graphics, logos, code, layout, and design — is the property of Black Lab Development or its licensors and is protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. You may view and print pages from the Site for personal, non-commercial reference. You may not reproduce, distribute, modify, or create derivative works from the Site's content without our prior written permission.

The “Black Lab Development” name and logo are our trademarks. Nothing on the Site grants you a license to use them without our written consent.

Services & Engagements

The Site describes web development services we offer, but browsing it doesn't create a client relationship or any obligation on either side. An actual engagement — scope, deliverables, timeline, and fees — is only formed once both parties sign a separate proposal or services agreement. Nothing on the Site should be read as a binding offer to perform services on specific terms.

Case Studies & Results

Case studies, testimonials, and performance statistics shown on the Site (for example, traffic or conversion improvements) reflect results achieved for specific past clients under specific circumstances. They're shared to illustrate our work, not as a guarantee of similar results for any other business. Individual outcomes depend on many factors outside our control, including your market, existing traffic, budget, and how recommendations are implemented.

The Site links to third-party websites, including live client and demo projects (for example, under the “Demos” section of the footer) and external resources. We don't control and aren't responsible for the content, availability, or privacy practices of any third-party site. Visiting a linked site is at your own risk and subject to that site's own terms and privacy policy.

Disclaimer of Warranties

The Site is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We don't warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components, or that any defects will be corrected.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Black Lab Development will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits or revenue, arising out of or related to your use of, or inability to use, the Site — even if we've been advised of the possibility of such damages. Our total liability arising from your use of the Site will not exceed one hundred dollars ($100).

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold Black Lab Development harmless from any claims, damages, losses, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your violation of these Terms or your misuse of the Site.

Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Ohio, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. Any dispute arising from these Terms or your use of the Site will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Hamilton County, Ohio.

Changes to These Terms

We may revise these Terms from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal or operational reasons. We'll update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page when we do. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
