The rules. Short and honest.
How using hey-ash.com works. The site terms below cover anyone browsing or submitting forms. Active engagements run under a separate written scope and contract; this page does not replace that contract.
These terms cover use of hey-ash.com and the free audit form. They do not replace any engagement contract. Where the engagement contract and these terms disagree, the contract controls.
01Acceptance
By using the site or submitting a form, you agree to these terms and the privacy policy. If you do not agree, do not use the site.
02Who you are dealing with
hey-ash.com is operated by Ashikur Rahman, a sole-proprietor SEO consultant working with US law firms. References to “I” or “we” on this page mean the same operator. The operator is based in Bangladesh; engagements run remotely.
03Use of the site
You agree not to use the site to:
- Scrape, mirror, or rehost content in bulk without written permission.
- Submit false, misleading, or impersonating information in any form field.
- Probe, scan, or attempt to bypass site security, rate limits, or web application firewall rules.
- Use the site or its content to train commercial AI models without written permission.
- Send automated traffic that imposes an unreasonable load on the host.
04Free audit terms
The free audit is exactly that, free. The output is delivered as a written reply and, where helpful, a brief screen-recorded walkthrough. The following applies:
- Free audits are limited to US law firms. Submissions from other niches will be declined.
- An audit is not a contract. No work begins until a written scope is accepted by both sides.
- An audit is not a guarantee of acceptance. I reserve the right to decline an engagement after reviewing the firm’s site, regardless of how strong the form intake was.
- Information you provide in the form is held under the privacy policy.
05Paid engagements
Paid engagements (retainers and projects) run under a separate written scope and service agreement signed by both parties. That agreement covers: deliverables, pricing, payment terms, change-order process, communication cadence, confidentiality, IP, term, termination, and dispute resolution.
Nothing on this page substitutes for that agreement. Where these site terms and a signed agreement conflict, the signed agreement controls for the engagement it covers.
06Intellectual property
Site content
All site content (text, design, charts, screenshots, downloadable assets) is owned by Ashikur Rahman unless otherwise credited. You may quote short excerpts with attribution and a link back. Bulk re-use requires written permission.
Client work
Work product delivered under a signed engagement transfers to the client per the terms of that engagement. Generic methodology, frameworks, and processes used to produce the work remain mine. Client logos, screenshots, and identifying details are never published without written permission, which is why the case-study pages on this site withhold names by default.
07Confidentiality
Information you share through the contact form or email is treated as confidential to the extent it is non-public. Mutual NDAs are available on request before any sensitive material is reviewed. Inside an engagement, the engagement contract’s confidentiality clause governs.
08Disclaimers
No legal advice
Despite the operator’s LLB and LLM credentials, nothing on this site is legal advice. The site provides SEO and marketing services to law firms. Engaging hey-ash.com does not create an attorney-client relationship.
No ranking or revenue guarantees
Search engines and AI search systems control which pages they surface. No SEO operator can promise specific positions, citations, click counts, or revenue outcomes. The Results page shows actual past work; past results are not a forecast of future ones.
Information & tools
Blog content, audit content, and any tools or templates linked from the site are provided “as is” without warranties of any kind, express or implied. You are responsible for evaluating fit before applying anything to your firm.
09Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Ashikur Rahman is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of or related to use of the site or the free audit, including lost profits, lost data, or lost goodwill, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.
For paid engagements, the liability cap is set in the engagement contract.
10Termination
Access to the site may be suspended or terminated at any time if these terms are violated. For paid engagements, termination provisions are governed by the engagement contract, not this page.
11Governing law
These site terms are governed by the laws of Bangladesh for the operator’s home jurisdiction. Disputes will be resolved by good-faith negotiation first, and by the competent courts of Dhaka, Bangladesh second. For paid engagements with US clients, the engagement contract usually elects the client’s state law instead; the engagement contract controls.
12Changes to these terms
These terms may be updated when services, tools, or applicable law change. The “Last updated” pill near the top of the page reflects the most recent material edit. Continued use of the site after an update means acceptance of the updated terms.
13Contact
Questions about these terms go to contact@hey-ash.com. The privacy policy covers data handling. The FAQ covers everyday engagement questions.
This page is a transparency document about how the site is run. It is not legal advice and does not create an attorney-client relationship. If your firm needs counsel for its own contracts, engage your own attorney.
