Terms

Use of this site

dibeneditto.com is a personal and professional website containing engineering, research, software, art, notes, portfolio material, and related information. You may browse and link to publicly available pages for lawful purposes.

Do not use the site in a way that intentionally interferes with its operation, attempts to bypass security controls, or violates applicable law.

Accuracy and changing information

I take reasonable care to make the information on this site accurate, current as of the date it is published or updated, and consistent with my best scientific, engineering, and technical understanding at that time.

That does not mean every statement will remain correct indefinitely. Scientific evidence, engineering practices, standards, technologies, regulations, and my own understanding can change, and errors can occur. When I become aware of a material error, I will make a reasonable effort to correct it.

For important or consequential decisions, readers should independently verify information using current authoritative sources and, when appropriate, consult a qualified professional.

Not professional advice or a professional service

Material on this site is provided for general informational, educational, research, portfolio, and demonstration purposes. It is not medical, legal, financial, accounting, tax, investment, insurance, or other regulated professional advice.

I am not a physician, attorney, financial adviser, accountant, or other licensed professional in those fields, and nothing on this site should be treated as a diagnosis, treatment recommendation, legal opinion, financial recommendation, or other individualized professional advice.

Engineering material on this site reflects my education, experience, research, projects, and technical judgment, but it is not a substitute for services that must be performed, reviewed, approved, sealed, or certified by a licensed Professional Engineer or another appropriately licensed, certified, or authorized professional where such credentials are required.

The site also does not provide emergency, safety-critical, regulatory, code-compliance, or certification services. Do not rely on website content alone for decisions involving health, life safety, structural safety, legal rights, regulatory compliance, significant financial consequences, or other high-stakes matters.

Viewing this site, downloading a file, using a tool, or contacting me does not by itself create a physician-patient, attorney-client, adviser-client, engineer-client, consultant-client, fiduciary, or other professional relationship.

Software, tools, and downloads

Software, browser-based tools, source code, downloadable files, and other technical materials are provided on an as-available basis. Browser capabilities, operating systems, file formats, and third-party services can change, so a tool that works in one environment may not work the same way in another.

Use appropriate backups and independently verify important results before relying on a tool or file for consequential work. To the extent permitted by law, you assume the risks associated with using or modifying software, code, calculations, designs, and downloadable materials from this site.

A particular project, repository, file, or software package may include its own license or terms. When it does, those project-specific terms govern that material.

Copyright and reuse

Unless a page, repository, file, or accompanying license says otherwise, original text, images, graphics, artwork, documentation, and other original material on this site are copyrighted by Lukas W. DiBeneditto or their respective rights holders.

Linking to public pages is welcome. Republishing, redistributing, or presenting copyrighted material as your own requires permission unless applicable law or a separate license allows that use.

Third-party names, marks, publications, images, software, and other material remain the property of their respective owners.

Infrastructure and third-party services

dibeneditto.com depends on third-party infrastructure to register the domain, resolve DNS, protect and deliver network traffic, and host the website. Namecheap is the domain registrar, Cloudflare provides authoritative DNS and related security services, and GitHub Pages hosts the website content.

Those services are operated by their respective providers and may change, experience interruptions, apply security measures, or process technical information according to their own terms and policies. I cannot guarantee the continuous availability or behavior of third-party infrastructure.

The site also contains links to third-party websites for reference and convenience. I do not control those sites and am not responsible for their availability, security, content, privacy practices, or terms. A link does not necessarily mean that I endorse every statement, product, or service on the linked site.

No warranty

The site and its content are provided without a promise that they will always be available, error-free, complete, secure, current, or suitable for a particular purpose. To the extent permitted by law, the site and its materials are provided without warranties of any kind.

To the extent permitted by law, I am not responsible for losses, damage, or harm resulting from reliance on information that is incomplete, outdated, incorrect, misapplied, or used outside the context in which it was presented.

Changes and questions

I may revise the site, remove or replace material, or update these terms from time to time. The modified date at the top of this page will be updated when these terms change materially.

Questions about these terms can be sent through the information on the Contact page. For information about visitor data and site infrastructure, see the Privacy page.
