Terms of Service

Last Updated: 13/10/2026

Welcome to Hand Lab Design.

By purchasing, booking, or using our services, you agree to the following terms and conditions.

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) are an agreement between you (“Client,” “you”) and veronica Vizcaino, an individual doing business as Hand Lab Design (“Hand Lab Design,” “we,” “us”), Carapungo, 170204, Quito, Ecuador. By checking the acceptance box and completing your purchase, or by booking or using our services, you agree to these Terms, our Privacy Policy and our Refund Policy. If you do not agree, do not purchase.

1. Who These Terms Are For

Our services are for business and professional use by individuals 18 or older who have authority to act for their business.

2. The Web Strategic Audit

The Web Strategic Audit (the “Audit”) is a one-time, personalized review of one website that you identify. It includes:

  • a personalized evaluation of the site’s clarity, user experience, perceived professionalism and conversion structure;
  • a written strategic report;
  • a prioritized roadmap of recommendations; and
  • a private review meeting by Google Meet of up to 60 minutes.

Delivery. We will deliver the report and hold or schedule the meeting within https://calendly.com/webmaster-handlabdesign/30min after (i) your payment is confirmed and (ii) you provide the information we reasonably request. Missing information extends this window.

Not included. The Audit does not include implementation, redesign or development work, copywriting, SEO ranking work, advertising management, hosting, ongoing support, or any technical, security, accessibility (ADA/WCAG), legal, privacy or tax compliance review or certification. Implementation is available only under a separate written agreement.

3. Price, Payment and Acceptance

The Audit costs $47 USD, paid once through PayPal. The price does not include taxes, if any apply. Your booking is confirmed only after payment is complete and you have booked your session. You must accept these Terms by checking the box at checkout; we keep a record of your acceptance (date, time and version of the Terms). PayPal’s own terms also apply to the payment.

4. Audit Credit

If, within 30 days after we deliver your Audit report, you sign a written agreement with us for a custom project (such as a website redesign, portfolio or landing page), we will credit $47 against that project’s fee. One credit per Client and per Audit. The credit has no cash value and is not transferable.

5. Client Responsibilities and Access

You agree to give us accurate information and to confirm that you own, or are authorized to have us review, the website you submit. If we need access to analytics, advertising or CMS accounts, you will grant view-only access through the platform’s invitation feature. Never send passwords by email or chat. You are responsible for the access you grant. We do not make changes to your website as part of the Audit.

6. No Guarantees; No Professional Advice

We give recommendations based on professional judgment and general best practices. We do not guarantee any result, including traffic, rankings, leads, conversions, sales or revenue. Results depend on factors outside our control. Examples we share are illustrations, not promises. The Audit is not legal, tax, accessibility, privacy, security or regulatory advice; consult a qualified professional for those matters. You are responsible for the legal compliance of your business, content and advertising claims.

7. Intellectual Property

The Audit report, roadmap and related materials remain the property of Hand Lab Design. We grant you a non-exclusive, perpetual license to use them for your own business purposes, including sharing them with your employees and with contractors or vendors who implement the recommendations for you. You may not resell or publish the report. You keep ownership of your website, content and materials.

8. Confidentiality and Case Studies

We keep non-public information you share confidential and use it only to deliver the Audit, except as required by law or when shared with service providers bound by confidentiality. This does not cover information that is public, already known to us, or independently developed. We will not publish your name, logo, results or website as a case study without your prior written permission.

9. Scheduling, Cancellations and Refunds

The Refund Policy is part of these Terms. If we must reschedule for unforeseen circumstances, we will offer alternative times or a full refund, at your choice.

10. Disclaimer of Warranties

To the extent permitted by law, the Audit is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

11. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law: (a) we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenue, data or business opportunities; (b) we are not responsible for downtime or failures of third-party hosting, plugins, platforms or payment processors; and (c) our total liability for any claim arising from the services will not exceed the amount you paid for the service that gave rise to the claim. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that the law does not allow to be limited, including liability for fraud or willful misconduct. Some states do not allow certain limitations, so parts of this section may not apply to you.

12. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you will defend and indemnify us against third-party claims arising from materials or access you provide without authority, or from your breach of these Terms.

13. Dispute Resolution

  1. Informal resolution. Email us at webmaster@handlabdesign.com first. We will try in good faith to resolve the issue within 30 days. If you plan to open a PayPal dispute or chargeback, please contact us first; this does not limit your rights.
  2. Binding arbitration. Any dispute not resolved informally will be decided by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its rules that apply to the dispute, conducted by video conference or on documents. The arbitrator may award the same individual relief a court could.
  3. Small claims and injunctions. Either party may bring an individual claim in small-claims court, and either party may seek an injunction in court to protect intellectual property or confidential information.
  4. No class actions. Claims may be brought only in an individual capacity, not as part of a class or representative action.
  5. Opt out. You may opt out of arbitration within 30 days of accepting these Terms by emailing webmaster@handlabdesign.com with the subject “Arbitration Opt-Out.”
  6. Governing law. Texas law governs these Terms, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules; the Federal Arbitration Act governs this arbitration clause.

14. Electronic Communications and Signatures

You agree to receive notices electronically. Your electronic acceptance has the same effect as a signature, as provided by the E-SIGN Act and the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

15. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms. Updated Terms apply to purchases made after the effective date shown above. For earlier purchases, the version in effect when you bought controls, except for changes required by law. We will post the new date and email customers with pending bookings about material changes.

16. General

These Terms, the Privacy Policy and the Refund Policy are the entire agreement for the Audit; custom projects are governed by a separate signed agreement. If a provision is unenforceable, the rest stays in effect. A delay in enforcing a right is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our consent. Neither party is liable for delays caused by events beyond its reasonable control. We are an independent contractor. These Terms are in English; Spanish summaries are provided for convenience and are meant to match them, and English controls if they differ. We will provide a full Spanish translation on request.
