Terms

Seeker Build is the trade name of David Lee Mundt II, a sole proprietor operating from Ocala, Florida. "I" and "me" mean David Lee Mundt II. "You" means the person or business using this site or hiring me.

Using this site means you accept these terms. If you don't, don't use it — there's no hard feelings and nothing is lost.

This is the most important thing on this page, so it goes near the top.

Anything you submit through the idea form is not confidential and is not submitted in confidence. Sending it does not create a non-disclosure agreement, a partnership, an employment relationship, or any obligation on my part to keep it secret.

I work with many people on overlapping problems, and software ideas converge constantly. I may already be building something similar, or may build something similar later, for myself or for someone else, with no payment or credit owed to you. Submitting an idea gives me no ownership of your business — and gives you no claim over work I do that happens to resemble it.

If your project genuinely requires confidentiality, do not put the sensitive parts in the form. Send a general description, say that you need an NDA, and we'll sign one before you tell me the rest. I'm glad to do that. I just can't do it retroactively.

Don't submit anything you don't have the right to share, anyone else's confidential information, or personal information about other people.

Submitting an idea costs nothing and commits neither of us to anything. There is no contract until we both agree to one in writing.

I aim to respond to every submission, usually within a few days, but I don't guarantee a response or a timeframe. I may decline any project, for any reason or none, without explanation. Some reasons are ordinary — capacity, fit, budget. Some are obligations I have elsewhere. Either way, declining costs you nothing.

Any plan, estimate, or mockup I send you at this stage is provided free and as-is, with no warranty. It's a starting point for a conversation, not a professional opinion you should rely on for business decisions on its own.

Paid work starts only after a written agreement covering scope, price, and timeline. Prices are fixed against that scope rather than billed hourly.

Unless the agreement says otherwise: half the price is due before work begins and the balance on delivery. Invoices are due within 14 days. Work outside the agreed scope is quoted separately, in writing, before it starts.

You may cancel at any time. Payments already made cover work already done and are non-refundable once that work has started. If I cancel before delivery, I'll refund anything covering work I haven't done.

When you have paid in full, you own the deliverables outright — the source code, the design files, and the content produced for your project. Ownership transfers on receipt of final payment, and not before.

I keep ownership of general-purpose tools, libraries, and techniques I bring to the work or develop while doing it, and I'm free to reuse them. You keep ownership of anything you gave me — your content, your branding, your data.

Third-party components stay under their own licences, which I'll identify on request.

I may describe and show completed work publicly — screenshots, a case study, a link — unless we agree otherwise in writing before the project ends. I won't publish your confidential business information, credentials, or customer data, ever.

If you'd rather I didn't show it at all, say so and I won't. That's a normal request and costs nothing.

Domains, hosting, and third-party services for your project go in your name, on your accounts, paid by you directly at cost. I'll set them up with you and walk you through it, but I don't hold them.

This protects you: if you ever want to work with someone else, nothing breaks and nothing is held hostage. It also means those costs aren't included in a project price, and that keeping those accounts current is yours to do.

I build things carefully and test them, but no software is free of defects. Work is delivered as-is, without warranties beyond those that can't be excluded by law.

After delivery I'm not responsible for uptime, security, backups, or maintenance unless we have a separate written maintenance agreement. I'm not responsible for third-party services going down, changing their terms, or changing their prices.

To the fullest extent the law allows, my total liability for any claim connected to this site or to work I do for you is limited to the amount you actually paid me for that work, and I'm not liable for lost profits, lost revenue, lost data, or indirect or consequential damages.

Don't use this site to send unlawful, abusive, or deliberately misleading content, to submit malicious code, or to attack or overload the service. Submissions are rate limited, and I may block access without warning.

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. Disputes go to the state or federal courts serving Marion County, Florida, and we each consent to that.

I may update these terms. The version in force is whatever is on this page when you use the site, with the date at the top. Changes don't alter a signed project agreement already underway.
