Terms & Conditions
2026-07-27
These terms cover the use of this site and the services booked through it, provided by Lorenzo Villalobos, an independent developer based in Costa Rica. Booking or paying for a session means you accept them.
What is being sold
Two things can be booked on this site:
- **15-minute Fit Call — free.** A short conversation to understand what you need and tell you honestly whether I'm the right person for it. No obligation either way.
- **Scoping Session — one hour, fixed price in US dollars.** A focused working session held over Microsoft Teams. You leave with a concrete plan and a fixed-price quote for the work discussed.
Price and currency
Prices are shown on the booking page before you pay, in US dollars (USD). The price shown is the total — there are no additional fees, taxes or charges added afterwards. Your bank or card issuer may apply its own currency-conversion fee, which is between you and them.
Payment
Paid sessions are paid in advance through PayPal. You do not need a PayPal account — PayPal accepts cards directly. Payment is taken on PayPal's own systems; card details are never entered on this site and I never receive them.
Your chosen time is held while you pay, and the session is only booked once payment completes. If payment fails, nothing is charged and nothing is booked.
Rescheduling
Rescheduling is free, at any time, as many times as you need. Use the link in your confirmation email. If no times suit you, reply to that email and we'll sort it out.
Cancellations and refunds
Cancel at least 24 hours before the start time and you get a full refund, no questions asked. Within 24 hours of the start time the session is not refundable, because the time was held for you and can no longer be offered to anyone else.
If I cancel for any reason, you are refunded in full regardless of notice.
Refunds are issued to the original PayPal transaction and processed by hand, usually within one business day. Cancelling through your confirmation link notifies me automatically — you do not need to chase it.
The free Fit Call involves no payment, so there is nothing to refund. Cancel it whenever you like.
What I commit to
To show up on time, prepared, having read what you sent me. To tell you honestly if I'm not the right person for your problem — including on a paid call, in which case I'll refund it.
The Scoping Session delivers a plan and a fixed-price quote. It does not include implementation work; that would be a separate engagement agreed separately.
What I ask of you
Turn up at the time you booked, or reschedule beforehand — rescheduling is free, so there's no reason not to. If you don't attend and didn't cancel, a paid session is treated as delivered.
Don't use the booking system to send abusive, misleading or automated submissions.
Confidentiality
Anything you tell me about your business in a call or a booking note is treated as confidential and is not shared or published. If I ever want to reference work publicly as a case study, I ask first.
Limits of liability
These sessions provide technical advice and planning. Decisions about your business remain yours, and I can't be held liable for outcomes that follow from them. For a paid session, my liability is limited to refunding what you paid for it.
Nothing here limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited.
Privacy
How your information is handled is set out in full in the Privacy Policy, which forms part of these terms.
