Terms of Service

Last updated: 26 September 2026

§1. General provisions and Seller details

  1. These Terms govern the use of the online store available at devince.dev, apps.devince.dev and courses.devince.dev (the "Store").
  2. The seller and service provider is Bartłomiej Filipiuk Devins, ul. Stacyjna 1, 53-613 Wrocław, Poland, Tax ID (NIP): 596 158 99 01, registered in the Polish Central Register of Business Activity (CEIDG), trading under the Devince brand (the "Seller").
  3. Contact, including the address for complaints and withdrawal declarations: e-mail bartek@devince.dev, postal address: ul. Stacyjna 1, 53-613 Wrocław, Poland.
  4. These Terms are made available free of charge before the contract is concluded, in a way that allows them to be saved, reproduced and printed.
  5. Definitions: Consumer — a natural person entering into a contract not directly related to their business or profession (and a sole trader for whom the contract is not of a professional nature); Digital Product — a file or digital content supplied without a tangible medium (e.g. a "skill" bundle); Course — a digital service/content granting access to online lessons; Digital content and Digital service — within the meaning of the Polish Consumer Rights Act.

§2. Electronically supplied services

  1. The Seller electronically provides: browsing the Store, placing an order, delivering the Digital Product (via a signed, expiring download link sent by e-mail) and — for Courses — account management and access to online lessons.
  2. Buying a Digital Product does not require an account. Course access requires an account created automatically after purchase (password set via an e-mailed link).
  3. Customers must not supply any unlawful content.

§3. Technical requirements

You need: a device with Internet access, a current web browser, an active e-mail account; to open the Digital Product — software supporting its format; for a Course — a Store account. The download link for a Digital Product is valid for a limited time (7 days) and a limited number of downloads (5).

§4. Prices and payments

  1. Prices are shown in Polish złoty (PLN) or US dollars (USD) and are total (gross) prices including VAT.
  2. Payments are handled by Stripe (Stripe Payments Europe, Ltd.). The Seller does not store payment card data.
  3. The contract is concluded when the payment provider confirms payment.
  4. Invoices: the Seller is an active VAT payer and issues VAT invoices. To receive a company invoice, the Customer sends the invoice details (including the tax ID / NIP) by e-mail to bartek@devince.dev. Providing a tax ID serves only to issue the invoice and does not by itself determine the nature of the contract (see §11(2)).

§5. Delivery (performance)

  1. Digital Product: after payment is confirmed, the Seller sends a download link to the e-mail provided. Delivery occurs when the file is made available at that link.
  2. Course: after purchase an account is created and an e-mail with a password-setup link is sent; lessons become accessible after logging in.
  3. Update notifications (Digital Products): the Seller may send the Customer service e-mails about important updates or security fixes to a purchased Digital Product — including a new, signed link to download the current version. These are service messages relating to performance of the contract and the security of the purchased Product (legal basis: Art. 6(1)(b) and (f) GDPR), not commercial/marketing communication. The Customer may opt out of such notifications by replying to the message.

§6. Right of withdrawal (Consumer)

  1. A Consumer may withdraw from a distance contract within 14 days without giving a reason, by submitting a declaration (e.g. by e-mail to bartek@devince.dev); the model withdrawal form (Annex 2 to the Consumer Rights Act) may be used. The period runs from the day the contract is concluded.
  2. Digital Product — loss of the right of withdrawal (Art. 38(13) of the Consumer Rights Act): the right of withdrawal does not apply where the Seller has begun supplying digital content not on a tangible medium with the Consumer's prior express consent, the Consumer having acknowledged the loss of the right of withdrawal upon full performance (making the file available), and the Seller having provided confirmation of that consent on a durable medium (e-mail). The Consumer gives this consent before purchase by ticking a separate statement.
  3. Course: if the Consumer requested that performance (access) begin before the withdrawal period ends and then withdraws, they must pay for what was performed up to withdrawal (pro-rata). Where the right of withdrawal still applies, the Seller provides a function to submit the withdrawal declaration online; it may also be sent by e-mail.
  4. On effective withdrawal, the Seller refunds the payment within 14 days.

§7. Complaints — non-conformity of digital content/service

  1. The Seller is liable for the conformity of the Digital Product and Course with the contract under Chapter 5b of the Consumer Rights Act (Art. 43h–43q).
  2. In case of non-conformity the Consumer may demand that conformity be brought about; and where that is impossible, ineffective, or the non-conformity is material — a price reduction or withdrawal (withdrawal is excluded where the non-conformity is immaterial).
  3. Non-conformity revealed within 2 years of delivery (or, for continuously-supplied content, throughout the supply period) is presumed to have existed at delivery.
  4. Complaints should be sent by e-mail to bartek@devince.dev, stating order data, a description of the non-conformity and the demand. The Seller will respond within 14 days. Any price-difference refund is made within 14 days.

§8. Out-of-court dispute resolution

  1. A Consumer may use out-of-court (amicable) methods of handling complaints and pursuing claims, in particular mediation or the permanent arbitration court at the Provincial Inspectorate of Trade Inspection in Wrocław, or help from a district (municipal) consumer ombudsman or a consumer organisation.
  2. Information and the register of authorised entities are available on the website of the Polish Office of Competition and Consumer Protection (UOKiK): polubowne.uokik.gov.pl and prawakonsumenta.uokik.gov.pl.
  3. Consumers from other EU states may seek help from the European Consumer Centre (konsument.gov.pl).

§9. Licence to Digital Products

  1. Upon delivery of a Digital Product the Seller grants the Customer a non-exclusive, perpetual licence, without territorial limits, to use the Product to the extent described in this section. The licence also covers updates supplied under paragraph 7.
  2. A Project is one website or application running under one domain. One purchase of a Product entitles the Customer to use it in one Project — their own or one built for the Customer's client. Each further Project requires a separate purchase.
  3. Under the licence the Customer may (fields of exploitation):
    • record and reproduce the Product, including copying it to their own devices and servers, code repositories and backups;
    • modify and adapt the Product, combine it with other works and create derivative works, including with AI tools (e.g. passing Product files to coding assistants);
    • deploy and publicly make available a Project built with the Product (e.g. launch and publish a website);
    • share the Product with subcontractors and collaborators working on the Customer's Project, solely for that Project.
  4. A client for whom a Project was built may use that Project (including its code) as needed to maintain and further develop it, without the right to use the Product in other projects.
  5. It is prohibited to:
    • resell, share or distribute the Product (in whole or in part) as a template, starter or any other product intended for further use by third parties;
    • publish the Product's source code or files (e.g. in a public repository); this does not apply to publishing a working Project;
    • use the Product to create a competing product (e.g. a template, course or starter kit for the same purpose);
    • remove copyright notices contained in the Product's files;
    • share the download link with third parties.
  6. This section does not limit the rights under Art. 75(2) and (3) of the Polish Act on Copyright and Related Rights.
  7. Updates: for 12 months from purchase the Seller provides bug fixes and security fixes for the Product (see §5(3)). The Customer receives a new link to download the current version on request by e-mail to bartek@devince.dev. This does not limit the obligation to supply updates to a Consumer under Art. 43k of the Consumer Rights Act.
  8. Support: questions about the Product can be asked on the Discord channel (§13); the Seller does not undertake to reply or to reply within any time, unless the product description says otherwise. This does not apply to complaints, which are handled under §7.
  9. Permanence of the licence: the Seller waives the right to terminate the licence (Art. 68 of the Act on Copyright and Related Rights), except where the Customer breaches the licence terms and, after being called on to stop with a deadline of no less than 14 days, has not stopped within that deadline.
  10. The licence does not transfer economic copyright. Intellectual property rights to the Digital Products and Courses belong to the Seller or its licensors; open-source components contained in a Product are subject to their own licences (§10(3)). The Customer may watch Course materials and use the knowledge gained in any project, but may not copy or share those materials with third parties.

§10. Nature of the Digital Products and Courses

  1. Digital Products and Courses are materials and tools for the Customer's independent use. The Customer decides how to apply, configure and deploy them and is responsible for their own data, accounts, access keys and servers. The purchase does not include a deployment service unless the product description says otherwise.
  2. Third-party costs: using a Product may require services of other providers (e.g. hosting, a domain, AI model APIs, paid tools). Their costs are borne by the Customer under contracts with those providers; the Seller has no influence over their prices and terms.
  3. AI and open source: Products may contain open-source components (under the licences indicated in the Product's files) and may be intended to work with AI tools. Some materials may have been created with the help of AI tools and were reviewed by the Seller. Output generated by AI tools is non-deterministic and must be verified by the Customer.
  4. Results: the Seller does not guarantee specific business results (e.g. sales, traffic, search rankings) or that the software will be free of any errors in every environment.
  5. Document templates (e.g. legal ones) contained in Products are templates and do not constitute legal advice.
  6. This section describes the subject matter and characteristics of the performance. It does not exclude or limit the rights of a Consumer (§11), in particular the Seller's liability for the conformity of the Digital Product and Course with the contract (§7).

§11. Consumers

  1. These Terms do not exclude or limit a Consumer's rights under mandatory law, in particular the Consumer Rights Act and the Civil Code. A provision contrary to such law does not bind the Consumer and is replaced by that law.
  2. Provisions concerning Consumers (incl. the right of withdrawal, conformity with the contract, prohibited contractual clauses) also apply to a natural person concluding a contract directly related to their business where the contract shows that it is not of a professional nature for them, as follows in particular from the subject of their business disclosed in CEIDG (Art. 385⁵ of the Civil Code, Art. 38a of the Consumer Rights Act).

§12. Business customers (B2B)

  1. This section applies only to Customers who are not Consumers, including businesses for whom the contract is of a professional nature (§11(2) does not apply). For them, this section prevails over other provisions of these Terms.
  2. The Seller's liability under the statutory warranty (rękojmia) is excluded (Art. 558 § 1 of the Civil Code).
  3. The Seller's total liability to the Customer is limited to the price paid for the Digital Product or Course the claim relates to. The Seller is not liable for lost profits.
  4. The limitations in paragraphs 2 and 3 do not apply to damage caused wilfully.
  5. Complaints must be submitted by e-mail within 30 days of delivery of the Digital Product or of access to the Course being granted.
  6. The right of withdrawal (§6) does not apply.
  7. Disputes are resolved by the court competent for the Seller's registered place of business.

§13. Discord rules

  1. The Seller may make channels on the Discord platform (Discord Inc.) available to Customers. Participation is voluntary and requires a Discord account and acceptance of Discord's terms.
  2. Courteous communication is required. In particular it is prohibited to: spam or advertise without the Seller's consent, post unlawful or offensive content, share Digital Product files or Course materials, post other people's personal data, or impersonate others.
  3. In case of a breach the Seller may delete the message and issue a warning and, for a serious or repeated breach, remove the participant from the channel. Removal from Discord does not affect the licence (§9) or access to purchased Digital Products and Courses.
  4. Messages posted on the channels are visible to other participants. Do not post sensitive data, passwords or access keys there.
  5. Discord is a support channel with no obligation to reply (§9(8)); complaints are submitted by e-mail (§7).

§14. Personal data

Personal-data processing is described in the Privacy Policy available in the Store.

§15. Governing law and final provisions

  1. Contracts are concluded in Polish or English. Matters not covered are governed by Polish law; this does not deprive a Consumer of the protection of the mandatory provisions of the law of their habitual residence.
  2. The Seller may amend these Terms for valid reasons; amendments do not apply to orders placed before they take effect. Changes are announced in the Store; for continuous services (Course) the Customer may terminate the contract.
  3. These Terms are effective from 26 September 2026.
