Terms of Use & Disclaimer
The free guides are here to help — please read how they work, and when to call a pro.
Last updated: August 11, 2026. Welcome, and thanks for using Bill's Home Tech. This website and the free guides, PDFs, and articles on it (the "Guides") are published by Bill's Home Tech / Bill Davis ("we," "us"). By using this site or the Guides, you agree to the terms below. If you don't agree, please don't use the Guides.
1. For general information only
The Guides are provided free of charge for general informational and educational purposes. They are not professional advice — technical, electrical, plumbing, legal, medical, or financial — and they are not a substitute for the instructions, manuals, or support provided by your device's manufacturer. Technology, apps, and products change often, and a Guide may become out of date or may not match your specific device, model, software version, or setup.
2. No warranties (provided "as is")
The Guides are provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, express or implied. To the fullest extent allowed by law, we disclaim all implied warranties, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, and non-infringement. We don't warrant that any Guide is accurate, complete, current, or that following it will produce any particular result or fix any particular problem.
3. Use at your own risk (assumption of risk)
You use the Guides at your own risk, and you are responsible for deciding whether a task is appropriate and safe for you, your equipment, and your home. You assume all risk of any damage to devices or property, loss of data, security or financial loss, or personal injury that may result from using or misusing a Guide. Please back up your data before making changes, and stop any time something doesn't feel safe.
4. Not a substitute for a professional
The Guides do not replace a licensed or qualified professional. Some tasks should only be done by a professional and may be regulated by local codes. You should stop and hire a qualified professional — or contact us — for anything involving electrical wiring, gas appliances or gas lines, water heaters or plumbing, or working on a ladder or at height. Never attempt gas-line work yourself; if you ever smell gas, leave the area and call your gas utility or 911.
5. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Bill's Home Tech and Bill Davis will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, device damage, property damage, security or financial loss, or personal injury, arising out of or related to your use of (or inability to use) the Guides — even if we've been advised such damages are possible. Nothing in these terms limits any liability that cannot be limited under applicable law. Because the Guides are provided free of charge, to the extent any liability is found, it will be limited to the smallest amount permitted by law.
6. Your responsibility
You agree to use the Guides lawfully and safely, to follow all applicable safety instructions and local codes, and not to hold us responsible for choices you make in your own home. If you share or reprint a Guide, please keep it accurate and include this disclaimer.
7. Links and third-party products
The Guides may mention or link to third-party products, apps, or websites for your convenience. We don't control those, don't endorse them, and aren't responsible for their content, accuracy, or safety. Any dealings with a third party are between you and them.
8. Changes to these terms
We may update the Guides or these terms at any time. Changes take effect when posted, so please check back. Continuing to use the Guides means you accept the current terms.
9. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Ohio, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. This section does not take away any rights you may have under Ohio consumer-protection law that cannot be waived.
