Results

Our services rely on tools run by other companies, such as Google, Cal.com and our hosting and messaging providers. We are not responsible for their outages, policy changes or decisions.

You own the content you give us. We own our own tools, templates and methods, and may reuse general know-how from our work. [We may mention you as a client or show your website in our portfolio unless you ask us not to.]
