Terms of service
These terms cover the website and Instant Pricing Tool (quote calculator) design and build work by The Method Co. ("I", "me") for your business ("you"). By paying for a website, you agree to them.
1. Who this is for
I work with businesses. You confirm you're buying for your business, not as a private consumer.
2. Free preview
I build a preview of your calculator or site before you pay. It's free and you're under no obligation. If you don't go ahead, I won't publish the preview, and I'll delete your content from it within 30 days if you ask.
3. Price and payment
- The price is the one shown when you approve your preview. The launch offer is €150 for the first 5 businesses, until the end date shown on the site. After that the price is €299.
- Payment is one-off, by card through Stripe, after you approve your preview and before the site goes live.
- The price covers design, build, 2 rounds of changes, adding it to your website, and free price updates for 30 days after launch.
4. Where it lives
The calculator is added to your own website. If you don't have one, it can live on its own page, with the domain and hosting in your name and paid by you directly to the provider. Because they're yours, you keep everything even if we stop working together.
5. Your content
You're responsible for the prices, pricing rules, wording and images you give me, and for having the right to use them. Prices shown by the calculator are estimates based on the rules you approve. Check them before launch.
6. Ownership
Once paid, the finished site is yours to use for your business. I may show it in my portfolio unless you ask me not to.
7. Changes after launch
Fixes to anything I built wrong, and price updates, are free for 30 days after launch. New calculators or bigger changes are quoted separately before I start.
8. Liability
I take care to build things properly, but I can't guarantee a particular number of customers, bookings or search rankings. My total liability is limited to the amount you paid me. Nothing here limits liability that can't be limited under Irish law.
9. Law
These terms are governed by the laws of Ireland, and the Irish courts have jurisdiction.
Refunds and cancellation
- Before you pay: you can walk away at any point. Nothing is owed.
- After you pay, before launch: if you change your mind before I start the launch work, you get a full refund.
- If I don't deliver: if I can't put your approved site live within 14 days of payment for reasons on my side, you get a full refund.
- After launch: no refunds, since the work is complete and you own it. I'll still fix anything I built wrong during the first 30 days.
To ask for a refund, email [email protected]. Refunds go back to the original card through Stripe, usually within 5 to 10 working days.
Privacy policy
Victor Miranda, trading as The Method Co., is the data controller for the information described here.
What I collect
- What you send me on WhatsApp or email: your name, business name, phone number, email and anything you choose to share.
- Business content for your calculator, like prices, services and logos.
- Payment details, which are collected and processed by Stripe. I never see or store your full card number.
Why I use it
To reply to you, build your preview and calculator, take payment, and keep records the law requires. The legal basis is taking steps to enter into, and carrying out, a contract with you, plus legal obligations for accounting records.
Who else handles it
- WhatsApp (Meta) when you message me there.
- Stripe for payments.
- My email provider and the hosting provider you choose for your site.
Some of these services may process data outside the EEA under their own approved safeguards. I don't sell your data and I don't use it for advertising.
How long I keep it
Enquiries that don't go ahead: up to 12 months. Client and payment records: 6 years, as required for Irish tax purposes.
Your rights
You can ask to see, correct, delete or move your data, or object to how it's used. Email [email protected]. If you're unhappy with my answer, you can complain to the Data Protection Commission at dataprotection.ie.
