Terms of Use
Effective Date: August 31, 2026
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of internethappens.com (the “Site”), operated by me as Internet Happens (“I,” “me,” “my”), an independent freelance digital marketing and web design business based in Tulsa, Oklahoma. By accessing or using this Site, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use this Site.
These Terms govern use of the website itself. If I have entered into a separate written agreement, proposal, or contract with you for services (such as web design, SEO, or marketing work), the terms of that separate agreement will govern our service relationship and will control over these Terms in the event of a conflict.
1. Who I Am
Internet Happens is a freelance operation, not an agency. I bring more than 25 years of Oklahoma marketing experience to web design, development, SEO, and internet marketing services, and I work directly with clients myself.
2. Use of This Site
You may use this Site for lawful purposes only. You agree not to:
- Use the Site in any way that violates applicable local, state, national, or international law
- Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Site, its servers, or any connected systems
- Interfere with or disrupt the Site’s functionality, including through automated scraping, bots, or excessive requests
- Transmit any harmful code, viruses, or malicious content through the Site
- Impersonate any person or entity, or misrepresent your affiliation with any person or entity, when submitting forms or comments
3. Forms, Comments, and Submitted Content
When you submit information through a contact form, quote request, or comment on this Site, you confirm that the information is accurate and that you have the right to submit it. Any information you submit is handled according to my Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy.
If comments are enabled on any page, I reserve the right to remove, edit, or decline to publish any comment at my sole discretion, including comments that are abusive, spam, off-topic, or otherwise inappropriate.
4. Communications
If this Site includes a live chat feature, chatbot, or call-tracking phone number at any point, use of that feature means you are communicating with me and, in some cases, with third-party tools that help operate that feature. Where required by law, you will be given notice before any such communication is recorded, logged, or shared with a third-party vendor. Please do not submit sensitive personal information (such as Social Security numbers, financial account numbers, or health information) through any form, chat, or comment feature on this Site.
5. Intellectual Property
All content on this Site — including text, graphics, logos, page design, and the Internet Happens name and branding — is owned by me or licensed for my use, and is protected by applicable copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. You may view and share pages from this Site for personal, non-commercial reference, but you may not copy, reproduce, republish, or use the design, code, or content of this Site for commercial purposes without my prior written permission.
6. Third-Party Links
This Site may contain links to third-party websites that are not owned or controlled by me. I am not responsible for the content, privacy practices, or terms of any third-party site, and including a link does not imply my endorsement of that site.
7. No Professional Guarantee; Disclaimer of Warranties
Content on this Site, including service descriptions, blog posts, and marketing materials, is provided for general informational purposes and does not constitute a guarantee of specific results (such as search rankings, traffic, or lead volume). Results from any actual marketing or web design engagement depend on many factors outside my control and would, where applicable, be addressed in a separate service agreement.
This Site and its content are provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, either express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. I do not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components.
8. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, I will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, revenue, data, or business opportunity, arising out of or related to your use of, or inability to use, this Site, even if I have been advised of the possibility of such damages. My total liability for any claim arising from your use of this Site will not exceed one hundred dollars ($100).
9. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold me harmless from any claims, damages, losses, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of your misuse of this Site or your violation of these Terms.
10. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Oklahoma, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of this Site will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Tulsa County, Oklahoma, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts.
11. Changes to These Terms
I may revise these Terms at any time. Changes take effect as soon as they are posted on this page, and the effective date at the top will be updated accordingly. Your continued use of the Site after changes are posted means you accept the updated Terms.
12. Severability
If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.
13. Contact
Questions about these Terms can be sent through the Contact page at internethappens.com, or by calling (405) 426-7532.
