Terms of Use

These terms apply to the personal website at guptasachinn.com (the "site"), operated by Sachin Gupta. By using the site, you agree to them. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

The short version. This is a personal site where I share writing, diagrams, and interactive explainers. Everything here is in my own personal capacity and represents my own views, not my employer's. Read it, share it, and learn from it freely, with credit. It is educational, offered as is, and is not professional advice, so please do not treat it as your only source for an important decision.

These are my personal views

Everything on this site is published by me, Sachin Gupta, in a personal capacity. All content, opinions, and views expressed here are entirely my own. They do not represent, are not made on behalf of, and should not be attributed to my employer, my clients, or any organization I am now or have previously been affiliated with, and they are not endorsed by any of them. Any reference to companies, products, or projects is for information and education only. If something here is wrong, it is my responsibility alone, not that of any employer or organization.

What the site is for

The articles, guides, diagrams, and interactive visualizers on this site are provided for general information and education. They may simplify topics, may contain mistakes, and can become outdated as technology changes. They are not professional, legal, financial, career, or engineering advice, and should not be relied on as the sole basis for any decision. Always verify anything important against primary sources and, if it matters, a qualified professional.

Intellectual property

Unless stated otherwise, the original content on this site, including the writing, diagrams, interactive visualizers, illustrative code snippets, and the site's design, is the work of Sachin Gupta and is protected by copyright.

• You are welcome to read, link to, and quote reasonable excerpts for non-commercial purposes, with clear attribution and a link back.
• Please do not republish substantial portions, or present the content as your own, without permission.
• Open-source projects featured on the site are governed by their own licenses in their own repositories; those licenses, not these terms, apply to that project code.
• Third-party names, logos, and trademarks belong to their respective owners and are used for identification only.

Acceptable use

Please use the site normally and in good faith. Do not attempt to disrupt, overload, break, probe, or gain unauthorized access to the site or its infrastructure, and do not scrape it in a way that harms its availability for others.

Links to other sites

The site links to third-party websites and resources for convenience. I do not control those sites, do not necessarily endorse them, and am not responsible for their content, accuracy, or their own privacy practices.

No warranty

The site and its content are provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including as to accuracy, completeness, fitness for a particular purpose, or uninterrupted or error-free availability.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Sachin Gupta will not be liable for any loss or damage arising out of your use of, or inability to use, the site, or your reliance on any content on it. Nothing in these terms limits any rights you have that cannot be limited under the law that applies to you.

Changes

I may update these terms from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top will change when I do, and continued use of the site after a change means you accept the updated terms.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, USA, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. This does not remove any mandatory consumer-protection rights you have under the laws of the place where you live.
