Terms of Use

01 Acceptance

// reading the page = agreeing to it

By accessing or using pepatcha.com (the "Site"), you agree to these Terms of Use ("Terms") and to the Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please don't use the Site.

You also confirm that you are at least 13 years old, and that if you're using the Site on behalf of an organisation, you have the authority to bind that organisation to these Terms.

02 Scope & nature of the Site

// what this Site is, and isn't

The Site is a personal portfolio operated by Patchara Suwanbordin, an individual based in Bangkok, Thailand. Its purpose is to share my work history, sample case studies, and a way to get in touch about freelance or full-time engineering work.

The Site is not: a SaaS product, a marketplace, a community platform, or a financial / medical / legal advice service. Anything that looks like advice on this Site is general commentary, not professional advice for your specific situation.

03 Acceptable use

// the rules of the road

You agree not to:

• Use the Site for any unlawful, harmful, fraudulent, or harassing purpose;
• Attempt to gain unauthorised access to the Site, its servers, or any related infrastructure;
• Run automated scraping, crawling, or bulk-download tools against the Site beyond what robots.txt permits, or in a way that interferes with normal operation;
• Reverse-engineer, decompile, or disassemble any part of the Site for the purpose of building a competing product;
• Train commercial AI models on the Site's content without my prior written permission;
• Misrepresent the source of the Site's content, or pass off my work as your own;
• Upload viruses, malware, or any code designed to disrupt or damage the Site or its visitors.

04 Intellectual property

// who owns what

Unless explicitly stated otherwise, all content on the Site — text, code samples, images, illustrations, layouts, and the visual identity — is © 2026 Patchara Suwanbordin, all rights reserved.

You're granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to view the Site for personal, non-commercial purposes. That licence does not include the right to:

• Republish substantial portions of the Site on another domain;
• Sell, license, or sub-license the content;
• Strip out attribution or watermarks;
• Use the content as training data for commercial models without permission.

Short quotes (under ~150 words) with a clear link back to the Site are fine under fair-dealing / fair-use principles. For anything more, just email me — I'm friendly about reuse when asked.

05 Your submissions

// what happens when you email me

If you send me a message, project brief, code snippet, file, or any other content via the contact form or email, you grant me a limited, non-exclusive licence to read, store, and respond to that content for the purpose of replying and (if applicable) discussing or carrying out work for you.

You retain ownership of your submission. I will not publish, repost, or quote it externally without your permission, except where strictly required by law.

Please don't send me anything confidential, sensitive, or under NDA before we have actually agreed an NDA in writing.

06 Third-party links & embeds

// the Site references the wider internet

The Site links to external services like GitHub, LinkedIn, and various reference docs. I don't control those services and am not responsible for their content, their privacy practices, or any damage that arises from your use of them. Their terms apply when you visit them.

07 Freelance & consulting work

// these Terms ≠ a contract for services

Nothing on the Site constitutes an offer to perform services. If you'd like to engage me for freelance work, consulting, or a full-time role, that engagement is governed by a separate written agreement (Statement of Work, employment contract, or equivalent) signed by both parties.

Until such an agreement is signed, no obligation is created between us by your reading the Site or sending an inquiry. Quotes shared in casual email are non-binding estimates unless explicitly marked as a formal proposal.

08 Disclaimers

// the "as-is" clause

The Site is provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, non-infringement, or uninterrupted availability.

I do my best to keep the Site online and the information current, but I do not guarantee that:

• The Site will be available at any particular time;
• The content is free of errors or up to date;
• The Site is free of viruses or harmful components;
• Any opinions or recommendations on the Site will be suitable for your situation.

09 Limitation of liability

// to the extent the law allows

To the maximum extent permitted by Thai law, in no event shall Patchara Suwanbordin be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages — including lost profits, lost data, or business interruption — arising out of or in connection with your use of the Site, even if I have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

Where liability cannot lawfully be excluded, my total aggregate liability to you for all claims arising from the Site is capped at THB 1,000 or the amount you have paid me in the 12 months preceding the claim, whichever is greater.

Nothing in these Terms limits liability for fraud, willful misconduct, or any liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.

10 Indemnity

// covering each other's backs

You agree to indemnify and hold me harmless from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) that arise out of: (a) your breach of these Terms, (b) your misuse of the Site, or (c) your violation of any law or third-party right while using the Site.

11 Changes to the Terms

// versioning

I may update these Terms from time to time. The last_updated date at the top will change accordingly. If a change materially affects your rights, I'll flag it on the homepage for at least 14 days. Your continued use of the Site after that constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

12 Governing law & disputes

// where things get sorted out

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Kingdom of Thailand, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Site shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent courts in Bangkok, Thailand.

Before escalating to a court, both parties agree to attempt to resolve the dispute in good faith via direct email correspondence for at least 30 days.
