Terms Of Use
Last Updated: January 20, 2026
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of bersus.io (the “Site”). The Site is owned and operated by Den Bobrov, professionally known as Den Bersus (“we,” “us,” “our”). By visiting or using any part of the Site – including its portfolio, case studies, blog, client area, or AI chatbot – you agree to be legally bound by these Terms and by our separate Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy. If you do not accept these Terms, discontinue use immediately.
1. Intellectual Property
All text, graphics, layouts, software, trademarks, and other materials appearing on the Site (“Content”) are owned by us or our licensors and are protected by international intellectual-property law.
1.1. General License
We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, revocable license to view the Content for personal, informational, and non-commercial purposes only. Any other use including copying, distributing, modifying, decompiling, or reverse-engineering – is prohibited without our prior written consent.
1.2. Prohibition on Design and Template Replication
The Site’s distinctive visual design, “look & feel,” user interface, branding, structural layout, and overall aesthetic (collectively, the “Site Design”) constitute proprietary trade dress. Replicating or adapting the Site Design, in whole or substantial part, for another website, product, or portfolio – whether or not you change text, images, colors, or layout – without our written permission is prohibited and may infringe our rights.
We actively monitor for such infringements and will pursue all available legal remedies, including but not limited to injunctive relief and monetary damages, against any party found to be in violation of this clause.
1.3. Limited License for Media, Bloggers, and Awards
Notwithstanding Sections 1.1 and 1.2, journalists, bloggers, award bodies, and academic researchers may quote reasonable text excerpts and display unaltered screenshots or brief video excerpts of publicly available Content for commentary, critique, news reporting, academic discussion, or award review, provided that:
- Attribution – credit “Den Bersus – bersus.io” and include an active hyperlink to the source page;
- Integrity – do not alter the material in a way that misrepresents its meaning, context, or quality;
- No implied endorsement – do not suggest partnership, affiliation, or approval where none exists.
We may withdraw permission for future uses at any time by written notice; uses already published in reliance on this clause remain unaffected. Nothing here limits any rights you may have under applicable fair-use or fair-dealing laws.
2. Informational Purpose and User Responsibility
All Content – including blog posts, articles, case studies, code snippets, and chatbot responses – is provided solely for general informational and promotional purposes. It does not constitute professional advice of any kind. You remain fully responsible for verifying that any information obtained from the Site is suitable for your specific situation and use it entirely at your own risk.
3. AI Chat Assistant
The Site includes an AI-powered chat assistant (“AI Assistant”).
Permitted Use: Obtaining general information about our portfolio, services, and professional experience.
Prohibited Use: Seeking business, legal, financial, technical, or any other form of professional advice.
The AI Assistant’s responses are automatically generated and may be incomplete, outdated, or inaccurate. Do not rely on them as professional advice. Interaction with the AI Assistant is at your sole risk, and we assume no liability arising from such use.
4. Client-Area Accounts
To access the client portal (e.g., for invoices, project progress, file storage), you must create an account. You are responsible for:
– Keeping your credentials confidential;
– All activity that occurs under your account;
– Ensuring you maintain independent backups of any material you upload.
We may suspend or terminate your access, without notice, if we reasonably believe you have violated these Terms or jeopardized the security or integrity of the Site.
5. Prohibited Conduct
You agree not to:
– Violate any applicable law or regulation;
– Infringe upon intellectual-property, privacy, or other rights;
– Introduce malware or other malicious code to the Site;

7. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL WE (INCLUDING OUR AGENTS OR SUBCONTRACTORS) BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, USE, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, RESULTING FROM:
