Legal information

This notice describes how LukGud — the trading name of Daniel Quaresma Afonso — collects and processes personal data when you use this website or contact the studio. It is published under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (2016/679) and Portuguese Law 58/2019.

The data collected is limited to what you provide directly: your name and email through the contact form or the discovery call booker, an optional company name and project note, and the budget range you select. Server logs retain the IP address of incoming requests for spam protection and security monitoring only.

This data is processed for two purposes only — responding to your enquiry, and scheduling and confirming the discovery call. It is never sold, never shared with third parties for marketing, and never transferred outside the European Economic Area. The only processors involved are the providers of the calendar (Cal.com), the email infrastructure used to send confirmations, and the hosting platform (Vercel).

Contact-form messages are retained for twenty-four months from the date of last correspondence. Booking records are retained for thirty-six months to support invoicing and tax obligations. Server logs are retained for ninety days.

Under GDPR Articles 15 to 22, you have the right to request access to your data, correction of inaccuracies, deletion, portability, and restriction or objection to processing. Requests are processed within thirty days. The Portuguese supervisory authority is the CNPD (cnpd.pt).

To exercise any of these rights, or to ask any question about how your data is handled, write to you@lukgud.com.

This website uses only the technical cookies strictly necessary to operate: a session identifier for the contact form and booker, and a locale preference cookie that remembers whether you are reading the site in Portuguese or English. These cookies do not require consent under the ePrivacy Directive and Portuguese Law 41/2004 because they are essential to the service requested.

No analytics, advertising, or third-party tracking cookies are set. There is no Google Analytics, no Meta Pixel, no remarketing infrastructure of any kind on this site.

If your preferences change, all cookies set by this website can be cleared at any time through your browser's privacy settings. Disabling the technical cookies will not prevent the site from loading, but the booker and the contact form may not function correctly.

This policy is reviewed periodically to remain compliant with the GDPR and the Portuguese Cookie Law (Lei n.º 41/2004 e Decreto-Lei n.º 7/2004).

These terms govern any engagement between you and LukGud — the trading name of Daniel Quaresma Afonso — initiated through this website. Each project is formalised by a separate written contract signed by both parties, which prevails over this general notice in case of conflict.

The services offered are web design and engineering, delivered in the form of fixed-scope engagement tiers (Essential, Professional, Premium) and optional add-ons. Scope, price, timeline, and revision rounds are defined in the project contract and not modifiable except by written change request agreed by both sides.

Intellectual property in works created specifically for your project transfers in full to you upon settlement of the final invoice, as set out in clause 10 of the standard project contract. Open-source components retain their original licences. The studio retains the right to display delivered work in its own portfolio unless the contract states otherwise.

The studio's liability for any claim arising from a project is limited to the total amount paid for that project. The studio is not liable for indirect, consequential, or commercial losses, nor for delays caused by third-party providers, hosting outages, or content not delivered by the client on time.

These terms are governed by Portuguese law. Any dispute that cannot be resolved by negotiation is submitted to the Bragança District Court. These terms may be updated; the current version is the one published on this page on the date shown at the top.
