Last updated: July 4, 2026
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of devopsness.comand its content (the “Site”), operated by Kiril Urbonas (“we”, “us”). By accessing or using the Site you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.
These Terms work alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle your data.
1. Who may use the Site
The Site is intended for a general, professional audience. By using it you confirm you are at least 16 years old (or the age of digital consent in your country) and able to enter into these Terms. If you use the Site on behalf of an organization, you represent that you are authorized to accept these Terms for it.
2. Content is informational only
Articles, tutorials, code samples, and other materials on the Site are provided for educational and informational purposes only. They reflect the author’s experience at the time of writing and may become outdated.
Nothing on the Site is legal, financial, security, or professional advice, nor a guarantee of production-readiness, fitness, or results. You are responsible for evaluating and testing anything before relying on it, especially in production environments. Always review official vendor documentation.
3. Intellectual property and permitted use
Unless otherwise stated, the content, design, and branding of the Site are owned by us or our licensors and protected by intellectual-property laws.
- You may read, link to, and share our articles with proper attribution and a link back to the original.
- You may use code snippets shown in articles in your own projects, at your own risk, unless a snippet states a more restrictive license.
- You may not republish full articles, or substantial parts of them, without our prior written permission.
- You may not use our content to train machine-learning models or build derivative datasets without permission.
4. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Use the Site in violation of any law or these Terms.
- Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Site, its accounts, or its underlying systems.
- Interfere with or disrupt the Site — including scraping at a rate that degrades service, circumventing rate limits, or launching automated attacks.
- Introduce malware, or probe or scan for vulnerabilities without our prior written consent.
- Misrepresent your affiliation with us or use our branding in a misleading way.
5. Newsletter and communications
If you subscribe to our newsletter, you consent to receive emails from us. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email or by contacting us. Handling of your subscription data is described in our Privacy Policy.
6. Advertising and third-party links
The Site is supported in part by advertising and may contain links to third-party sites, tools, and services. We do not control and are not responsible for third-party content, availability, accuracy, or practices. Links and ads do not imply our endorsement. Accessing third-party services is at your own risk and subject to their terms and privacy policies.
7. Disclaimer of warranties
The Site and all content are provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and any warranty that the Site will be uninterrupted, secure, error-free, or free of harmful components. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so parts of this section may not apply to you.
8. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, profits, revenue, or goodwill, arising out of or related to your use of (or inability to use) the Site or its content — even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law, such as for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud.
9. Indemnity
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Site and its operator from any claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your misuse of the Site or your breach of these Terms.
10. Availability and changes to the Site
We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Site — including content and features — at any time and without notice. We are not liable to you or any third party for doing so.
11. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms as the Site evolves or as the law requires. Material changes will be reflected in the “Last updated” date above. Your continued use of the Site after an update means you accept the revised Terms.
12. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Lithuania, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules, and subject to any mandatory consumer protections of your country of residence. Nothing in these Terms affects your statutory rights as a consumer.
