These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the gideonabochie.com website, client portal, and related services (collectively, the "Services") provided by Gideon Abochie ("we," "our," or "us"). By accessing or using our Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

1. Services

We provide website redesign, conversion rate optimization (CRO), and related digital services. The scope, deliverables, timeline, and pricing for each engagement are defined in a separate proposal, statement of work, or contract agreed upon by both parties.

The Services include:

• Website audits and scoring (free, provided as-is).
• Website redesign and development services (paid, per agreed proposal).
• Client portal access for project management and feedback.
• Ongoing support and maintenance (as specified in service agreements).

2. Free Website Audits

Our free website audit and scoring tools are provided for informational purposes only. These audits:

• Are estimates based on automated analysis and publicly available data.
• Do not constitute a comprehensive professional audit or guarantee of website performance.
• May not identify all issues or opportunities.
• Should not be relied upon as the sole basis for business decisions.

By requesting a free audit, you consent to being contacted about our services via the contact information you provide.

3. Proposals and Contracts

Proposals generated through our platform are estimates and do not constitute binding agreements. A proposal becomes binding only upon:

• Your written acceptance of the proposal.
• Our confirmation of acceptance.
• Receipt of any required deposit or payment.

We reserve the right to modify proposal pricing and terms before formal acceptance.

4. Client Portal

The client portal is provided to authorized clients for project collaboration. By using the portal:

• You agree to share the portal only with authorized members of your organization.

• We may suspend access if we detect unauthorized use or security concerns.

Portal access is provided for the duration of the active project engagement and may be terminated upon project completion or contract termination.

7. Confidentiality

Both parties agree to keep confidential any proprietary information shared during the engagement. This includes:
