By accessing tarasovs.me, you confirm that you are at least 18 years old, or that you have the consent of a parent or legal guardian, and that you agree to be bound by these Terms.
You may use this website for lawful purposes only. You agree not to:
- use the site in any way that violates applicable local, national, or international laws or regulations
- transmit unsolicited commercial communications (spam)
- attempt to gain unauthorised access to any part of the site or its infrastructure
- reproduce, duplicate, copy, or sell any part of the site without our express written permission

We reserve the right to restrict or terminate access to the website for any user who violates these Terms.
3. Client Services
Scope of work
All client engagements are governed by a separate project agreement or proposal agreed upon in writing before work begins. These Terms of Service apply alongside any such agreement. In the event of a conflict, the project agreement takes precedence.
Enquiries and proposals
Submitting an enquiry through our contact form does not constitute a binding contract. A project begins only when both parties have agreed on scope, timeline, and budget in writing.
Project changes
Any changes to an agreed project scope (additional pages, revised features, extended timelines) must be requested in writing. Additional work outside the original scope may be subject to additional fees, which will be communicated and agreed before proceeding.
Client responsibilities
For a successful project, clients are expected to:
- provide required content, assets, and access credentials in a timely manner
- review and provide feedback within agreed timeframes
- designate a single primary point of contact for the project
- ensure that any materials provided (text, images, logos) do not infringe third-party intellectual property rights
Delays caused by late client feedback or missing materials may affect the agreed delivery timeline. Tarasovs Digital Agency will not be held responsible for project delays arising from the client’s failure to meet their responsibilities.
4. Payment Terms
Payment terms are set out in the individual project agreement. Unless otherwise agreed:
- a deposit (typically 50% of the total project fee) is required before work begins
- the remaining balance is due upon project completion and before final files or site handover
- invoices are payable within 14 days of issue
- overdue payments may result in work being paused until the outstanding balance is settled
All prices are quoted in USD unless otherwise stated. We accept payment by bank transfer, Stripe, or other methods agreed in writing.
5. Intellectual Property
Website content
All content on tarasovs.me — including text, graphics, logos, images, case studies, and design — is the property of Tarasovs Digital Agency or its content suppliers and is protected by applicable copyright and intellectual property laws. You may not reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works from this content without our written permission.
Client deliverables
Upon receipt of full payment, the client receives full ownership rights to the final deliverables specified in the project agreement (e.g. website design, developed pages, written content). This transfer does not include third-party assets such as stock photography, licensed fonts, or plugins, which remain subject to their own licence terms.
Portfolio rights
We reserve the right to display completed client projects in our portfolio and case studies, and to reference the client relationship for promotional purposes. If you require confidentiality regarding your project, please notify us in writing before work begins and we will agree appropriate terms.
Third-party licences
Some projects may incorporate third-party themes, plugins, stock assets, or fonts. The client is responsible for maintaining the ongoing licences for any such assets used in their project after handover.
6. Confidentiality
Both parties agree to keep confidential any proprietary or sensitive information shared during the course of a project (business strategy, unreleased products, pricing structures, internal processes). This obligation continues for two years after the project concludes.
Confidentiality does not apply to information that is already publicly available, independently known to the receiving party, or required to be disclosed by law.
7. Warranties and Disclaimers
We take pride in the quality of our work and aim to deliver results that meet agreed specifications. However:
- We do not guarantee specific search engine rankings, traffic levels, or business outcomes from SEO or AI search optimization services. Results depend on many factors outside our control, including algorithm changes and market conditions.
- Website performance scores (e.g. PageSpeed) are measured at the time of delivery and may vary over time due to content additions, plugin updates, or third-party scripts.
- The information on tarasovs.me is provided for general informational purposes only. While we strive to keep it accurate and up to date, we make no representations or warranties of any kind, express or implied, about its completeness, accuracy, or suitability for any purpose.
8. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Tarasovs Digital Agency shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from:
- your use of, or inability to use, the website or our services
- unauthorised access to or alteration of your data
- loss of profits, revenue, data, or business opportunities
- any third-party content or services linked from our website
Our total liability to any client for any claim arising under a project agreement shall not exceed the total fees paid by the client for the specific project giving rise to the claim.
9. Third-Party Links
Our website may contain links to third-party websites for reference or convenience. These links do not constitute an endorsement of those sites or their content. We have no control over and accept no responsibility for the content, privacy practices, or availability of external sites. Visiting third-party links is at your own risk.
10. Termination
Either party may terminate a project engagement by providing written notice. In the event of termination:
- the client is responsible for payment for all work completed up to the termination date
- the deposit is non-refundable unless termination is caused by a material breach by the Agency
- completed deliverables will be transferred to the client upon settlement of any outstanding balance
We reserve the right to terminate or suspend access to the website for any user in breach of these Terms, without prior notice.
11. Governing Law and Disputes
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Romania (as our EU-registered operating jurisdiction), without regard to conflict of law principles.
In the event of a dispute, both parties agree to first attempt to resolve the matter informally by contacting us at hello@tarasovs.me. If the dispute cannot be resolved within 30 days, it may be referred to the competent courts of Romania, unless otherwise agreed in writing.
For clients based in the United States, we make reasonable efforts to accommodate applicable US consumer protection requirements.
12. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms of Service from time to time to reflect changes in our services, legal requirements, or business practices. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page will be revised accordingly. Continued use of the website after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms.
For active client projects, material changes to project-specific terms will be communicated directly and require written agreement from both parties.
