These Terms of Service govern the professional relationship between Ivan Anisimov, a sole proprietor registered in Portugal (NIF 327343117), operating at anisimov.dev ("the Contractor"), and any individual or legal entity ("the Client") that engages the Contractor for services.
The Contractor provides software engineering services including but not limited to: backend and API development, cloud infrastructure setup and management, DevOps consulting, system integrations, workflow automation, and code review. The specific scope of each engagement is agreed upon in writing before work begins.
All services are provided personally by the Contractor — no subscriptions, no platform access, no resale of third-party software.
All engagements begin with a written agreement or proposal accepted by the Client via email. Quotes are valid for 30 days from the date of issue. Work does not begin until the Client has accepted the proposal and, where applicable, paid the deposit.
Invoices are issued in EUR. Payment is due within 14 calendar days of the invoice date ("Net-14") unless otherwise agreed. Late payments accrue interest at 1.5% per month.
Accepted payment methods: credit/debit card or SEPA bank transfer, both processed via Stripe (Invoices or Payment Links). All prices are exclusive of VAT where applicable.
I do not process payments on behalf of third parties, and I do not offer subscription services, software licenses, or platform access.
Upon receipt of full payment for a project, the Client receives full ownership of all custom code and deliverables created specifically for them under that engagement. The Contractor retains ownership of pre-existing tools, frameworks, and reusable libraries ("Background IP") which may be incorporated under a perpetual, royalty-free licence. The Client does not acquire any rights until all outstanding invoices are settled.
Both parties agree to keep confidential any non-public information shared during the engagement. This obligation survives termination of the engagement for a period of two years. The Contractor may list the engagement as a portfolio reference unless the Client requests otherwise in writing.
The Contractor warrants that services will be performed with reasonable skill and care. The Contractor does not warrant that deliverables will be error-free or uninterrupted. The Contractor's total liability for any claim arising from an engagement shall not exceed the total fees paid by the Client in the three months preceding the claim.
Either party may cancel an engagement by providing written notice. Cancellation terms are described in the Refund & Cancellation Policy. In the event the Contractor cancels due to unforeseen circumstances, any prepaid but unearned fees will be returned.
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Portugal. Any disputes shall be resolved in the courts of Lisbon, Portugal.
Services are not provided in jurisdictions subject to applicable sanctions and export control regulations, or to individuals and entities listed on applicable sanctions lists (including but not limited to OFAC, EU, and UN sanctions lists). By engaging the Contractor, the Client represents and warrants that they are not subject to any such restrictions.
