Use of Website & Services

Permitted use

You may use our website and services for lawful purposes only. You agree not to misuse the website or interfere with its operation, security, or availability. Prohibited conduct includes, but is not limited to:

• Attempting unauthorised access to our systems, data, or accounts
• Transmitting malware, spam, or harmful code
• Scraping, copying, or extracting content without prior written consent
• Using the website in a manner that violates applicable laws or regulations
• Impersonating our company, employees, or other users

Information on this website is provided for general purposes and does not constitute a binding offer until confirmed in a separate written agreement. Specific IT Marketing engagements are subject to individual proposals, statements of work, or contracts agreed between you and DETALHE BRUTAL, UNIPESSOAL LDA.

You are responsible for ensuring that any information you submit to us is accurate and that you have the authority to share it. You must not use the Website to transmit unlawful, defamatory, or infringing material.

Availability

We aim to keep the Website available but do not guarantee uninterrupted access. We may suspend, withdraw, or restrict access for maintenance, security, or operational reasons without prior notice where reasonably necessary.

Engagements

Services & agreements

Professional services are delivered under a separate proposal, statement of work, or contract that defines scope, deliverables, timelines, fees, and responsibilities. In the event of conflict between these Terms and a signed service agreement, the signed agreement prevails for that engagement.

• Proposals are valid for the period stated therein and may be revised before acceptance
• Work begins after written confirmation and, where applicable, receipt of agreed deposits or signed contracts
• Changes to scope require mutual agreement and may affect fees and timelines
• Client cooperation — timely feedback, access to assets, and approvals — is essential for delivery

We reserve the right to decline or discontinue services where a client fails to meet payment obligations, breaches these Terms, or where continuing the relationship would be unlawful or commercially unreasonable.

Intellectual Property

Ownership & content rights

All content on this website — including text, graphics, logos, images, layouts, software, and design elements — is owned by or licensed to DETALHE BRUTAL, UNIPESSOAL LDA and is protected by applicable intellectual property laws.

You may view and download content for personal, non-commercial use only, provided that you do not modify, reproduce, distribute, or exploit any materials without our prior written permission.

• Our materials — remain our exclusive property unless otherwise agreed in writing
• Client materials — you retain ownership of content you provide; you grant us a licence to use it for agreed service delivery
• Deliverables — ownership and usage rights for project outputs are defined in the relevant service agreement
• Third-party assets — fonts, stock imagery, plugins, and licensed tools remain subject to their respective licence terms

You warrant that materials you supply (logos, copy, images, data) do not infringe third-party rights and that you have authority to grant us a licence to use them for the agreed Services. You indemnify us against claims arising from breach of this warranty, except where caused by our negligence.

Commercial Terms

Fees, invoicing & cancellation

Fees, payment schedules, and expense policies are set out in each proposal or contract. Unless otherwise agreed:

• Invoices are payable within the period stated on the invoice (typically 14–30 days)
• Late payments may incur interest and suspension of work until accounts are settled
• Quoted fees exclude third-party costs (advertising spend, licences, hosting) unless explicitly included
• Deposits paid for scheduled work are non-refundable once work has commenced, unless otherwise agreed in writing

Either party may terminate an ongoing engagement in accordance with the relevant contract. Where no specific termination clause exists, either party may terminate on reasonable notice, with fees due for work completed up to the termination date.

Disclaimers & Liability

Limits of responsibility

Our website and its content are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. While we strive for accuracy and reliability, we do not warrant that the website will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free from harmful components.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, DETALHE BRUTAL, UNIPESSOAL LDA shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the website or reliance on its content.

• We are not responsible for third-party websites linked from our platform
• Marketing results may vary and are not guaranteed unless explicitly stated in a signed agreement
• Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded under Portuguese or EU law

Where liability cannot be excluded, our total liability arising from use of the Website or Services shall be limited to the fees paid by you for the specific service giving rise to the claim in the twelve months preceding the event, or the minimum amount permitted by applicable law, whichever is greater for mandatory consumer rights.

Force majeure

Neither party shall be liable for failure or delay caused by events beyond reasonable control, including natural disasters, government actions, network outages, or widespread technical failures, provided prompt notice is given and reasonable efforts are made to resume performance.

Suspension & End

Termination & suspension

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Website or Services if you breach these Terms, fail to pay agreed fees, or engage in conduct that harms our business, reputation, or other users. Upon termination:

• Rights granted to use Website Content cease immediately, except for deliverables covered by a separate licence
• Outstanding invoices become due without delay
• Confidentiality and intellectual property provisions survive termination

Clients may request export of agreed deliverables and project files in accordance with the relevant service contract and upon settlement of all amounts due.

Law & Contact

Governing law and jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the laws of Portugal. Any disputes arising from or relating to these Terms or your use of our website shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent courts of Portugal, without prejudice to mandatory consumer protection rights where applicable.

If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. Our failure to enforce any right or provision shall not constitute a waiver of that right.
