These Terms of Service govern your use of the METZ CODE website and any services we provide. By using our website or engaging us as a service provider, you agree to these terms.

Last updated: 9 May 2026

1. About these terms

"METZ CODE", "we", "us", "our" refers to METZ CODE S.R.L., a Romanian limited liability company with registered office at Str. Visan nr. 80, Bl. 1, Et. 3, Ap. 20, 700282 Iași, Romania, registered with the Romanian Trade Register under number J2018003395229 and tax identification number (CUI) 40290884. "You" refers to anyone visiting our website or contracting with us for services.

These terms apply to:

  • Your use of metzcode.dev and its language variants.
  • Any inquiry, quote request, or engagement with METZ CODE for software development, consulting, or related services.

Specific engagements are governed by a separate signed agreement. In case of conflict between these terms and a signed agreement, the signed agreement prevails for the engagement it covers.

2. Services

METZ CODE offers professional software services, including custom software development for web, mobile, cloud, and on-premise environments; technical strategy and audits; dedicated engineering teams; and consulting and engineering leadership. The exact scope, deliverables, timeline, and price of any engagement are defined in a written contract or statement of work.

3. Inquiries and proposals

Information you submit through the contact form or by email is used to respond to your inquiry and prepare a proposal where applicable. A proposal is non-binding and does not constitute a contract until accepted in writing by both parties.

4. Acceptable use of the website

You agree to use the website only for lawful purposes. In particular, you must not:

  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the website, its servers, or any connected systems.
  • Interfere with or disrupt the website's operation, including by overloading, flooding, or attacking it.
  • Reverse-engineer or scrape the website beyond what is permitted by applicable law.
  • Use the website to transmit unsolicited messages, malware, or harmful content.
  • Misrepresent your identity or affiliation when contacting us.
  • Infringe any third party's rights, including intellectual property rights.

5. Intellectual property

All content on this website — including text, images, logos, code, design, and structure — is owned by METZ CODE or its licensors and is protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. You may view and use the website for personal, non-commercial purposes. Any other use, including reproduction, distribution, modification, or creation of derivative works, requires our prior written consent.

For deliverables produced under a paid engagement, ownership and licensing are governed by the applicable contract.

6. Confidentiality

If you share confidential information with us during an inquiry or engagement (technical specifications, business plans, internal data), we will treat it as confidential and use it only for the purpose for which it was shared. We are happy to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement before sensitive discussions if needed.

7. Third-party links and content

This website contains links to and embedded content from third-party services (LinkedIn, Google Maps, Formspree, and others). We are not responsible for the content, privacy practices, or terms of those third parties. Your use of those services is at your own risk and subject to their own terms.

8. Disclaimers

The website is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranty of any kind, express or implied, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. We do not warrant that the website will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or free of harmful components. Information on the website is provided for general informational purposes and does not constitute professional advice.

9. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, METZ CODE will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, or business opportunities, arising from your use of the website. For services provided under contract, our liability is governed by the applicable contract.

Nothing in these terms limits liability for fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct, or for death or personal injury caused by negligence, where such limitation is prohibited by law.

10. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold METZ CODE, its directors, employees, and agents harmless from any claims, damages, liabilities, or expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your breach of these terms or your unlawful use of the website.

11. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the website at any time, with or without notice, if you breach these terms or engage in conduct we reasonably consider harmful. The provisions on intellectual property, confidentiality, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and governing law survive termination.

12. Governing law and jurisdiction

These terms are governed by the laws of Romania, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles. The competent courts of Iași, Romania, have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes arising from these terms or your use of the website, except where mandatory consumer protection laws give you the right to bring proceedings in your country of residence.

13. Force majeure

We are not liable for delays or failures caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including acts of God, natural disasters, war, terrorism, civil unrest, governmental action, internet or power outages, and pandemics.

14. Severability

If any provision of these terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full force, and the invalid provision will be replaced with one that comes closest to expressing the intent of the original.

15. No waiver

Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these terms is not a waiver of that right or provision. Any waiver must be in writing.

16. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. The most current version will always be posted on this page, with the "Last updated" date at the top. Continued use of the website after such updates constitutes acceptance of the new terms.
