2. Disclaimer of Warranties

Our Services are provided on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, we expressly disclaim all warranties, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise, including but not limited to:

• Warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.
• Guarantees of uninterrupted, secure, or error-free performance of delivered software or websites.
• Assurances that results will meet specific business metrics, conversion rates, or revenue targets.
• Compatibility with all future updates to third-party platforms, browsers, or operating systems.

3. Limitation of Liability

In no event shall Professional Portfolio, its owners, employees, contractors, or affiliates be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to:

• Loss of profits, revenue, data, business opportunities, or goodwill.
• Business interruption or delayed project timelines caused by factors outside our direct control.
• Unauthorized access to, alteration of, or disclosure of your data through third-party services or client-provided infrastructure.

Our total aggregate liability arising out of or related to this policy or any Services provided shall not exceed the total fees actually paid by the client to us for the specific Services giving rise to the claim during the twelve (12) months preceding the incident.

4. Client Responsibilities & Assumptions

5. Third-Party Services & Dependencies

Our projects may incorporate third-party libraries, APIs, plugins, hosting providers, or SaaS platforms. Professional Portfolio does not guarantee the availability, security, or continued functionality of these third-party services. Liability for issues originating from third-party dependencies rests solely with the respective providers.

6. Force Majeure

We shall not be held liable for any failure or delay in performance due to circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including natural disasters, pandemics, government actions, internet infrastructure failures, or widespread cyberattacks.
