Terms of Use
Review version: .
Effective date: pending owner approval and publication.
Prepared for owner review before publication. The availability and limitations section below also requires legal review. These terms are not a photography booking, purchase, or licensing agreement.
1. Website operation and scope
Ryan Angelo operates Ryan Angelo Photography as an individual at ryanangelophotography.com. These terms address use of the public portfolio, contact facilities, sign-in features, and experimental educational tools. Questions can be sent to ryangelo6818@gmail.com.
2. Permitted use
You may browse the portfolio, use the educational tools for their intended purpose, and send genuine inquiries. Use the website lawfully and respect other people's privacy and intellectual property. Do not send spam or harmful material, impersonate another person, disrupt the website, or attempt to bypass access controls. A sign-in does not grant rights to photographs, paid services, or content beyond the area made available to you.
3. Copyright and photographs
Photographs, text, graphics, and other website materials are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws and belong to Ryan Angelo or their respective rights holders. Third-party materials remain subject to their applicable rights and licenses. Viewing an image, appearing in it, or being able to save it through your browser does not by itself grant a license to reuse it.
Except as permitted by applicable law or a separate license, do not download photographs for reuse, copy, edit, republish, sell, redistribute, or remove ownership notices without permission from the relevant rights holder. Normal browser caching needed to view the site is not prohibited. You may share a link to a public portfolio page; sharing a link does not grant rights to the image. Contact Ryan to discuss permission for a particular use. No purchase or license is created by these website terms.
4. Inquiries and photography services
Sending an inquiry does not by itself reserve a date, confirm availability, place an order, or establish pricing or a photography-services agreement. Any booking, scope of work, licensing, payment, cancellation, refund, or delivery arrangements must be addressed separately. No such arrangements are specified or promised by this website.
Private client galleries are disabled, and online purchasing and payment processing are not operational. Do not send payment-card details through the contact form. Future galleries, Stripe Checkout, photo purchasing, or digital delivery will require their own reviewed information and terms before they are offered.
5. External services and privacy
The site relies on services including hosting, Formspree, Google Fonts, and GitHub sign-in, and links to external websites such as Instagram. Their availability and practices are outside Ryan's direct control. An external link does not establish an endorsement or guarantee. Your use of those services may be governed by their own terms. The Privacy Policy explains the website's information handling and remaining review items.
6. Experimental educational tools
Labs, code exercises, and image-provenance tools are experimental resources for learning and exploration. Outputs can be incomplete or incorrect. A matching hash or blockchain lookup does not establish copyright ownership, authorship, consent, authenticity, or a right to use a photograph. Independently verify any result before relying on it, and avoid entering confidential material. Features requiring an unconfigured external service may be unavailable.
7. Availability and limitations — pending review
Website content and features may change, be corrected, or become unavailable. Continuous availability, error-free operation, and the accuracy or suitability of experimental results are not guaranteed. The website should not be relied on as the only record of a service arrangement or permission to use an image.
Nothing in these terms excludes or limits rights, remedies, or responsibilities that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. No financial liability cap, mandatory arbitration requirement, or governing-law selection is established here. The owner must review this section and obtain advice appropriate to the business and its visitors before publication.
8. Updates and contact
These terms may be revised to reflect changes in the website and the features actually offered. The published version will identify its effective date and revision date. Updates to website terms do not by themselves change a separate photography-services or licensing agreement. For questions, permissions, or concerns, email ryangelo6818@gmail.com.
