Website Terms of Use

Practical terms for the use of our public informational and consulting website.

Last updated: August 11, 2026.

Informational website

This website provides general information about technology practices and MiamiDadeTech services. Content is educational and general in nature. It is not legal, accounting, insurance, regulatory, or other licensed professional advice, and it is not a substitute for an assessment of your specific environment.

No consulting relationship created by website use

Viewing the website, using a checklist or example, or sending an inquiry does not by itself create a consulting, fiduciary, confidential, support, or other professional relationship. A consulting engagement begins only when MiamiDadeTech and the client agree to the scope and terms of an engagement in writing.

No emergency or support channel

The public website and consultation email are not an emergency-response, incident-response, managed-support, or guaranteed monitoring service. Do not rely on them for time-critical security incidents, outages, life-safety matters, or emergency communications unless a separate written agreement expressly provides such service.

Technical information and examples

Technology changes quickly, and every environment is different. Diagrams, architectures, sample plans, checklists, security guidance, recovery examples, and other content illustrate general practices and considerations. They do not guarantee availability, security, compliance, recovery, performance, or suitability for a particular environment. Validate material against current vendor documentation, applicable requirements, and the facts of your environment before implementation.

Security and authorized use

You may use the site for ordinary informational and legitimate business purposes. You may not intentionally interfere with the site, attempt unauthorized access, introduce malicious code, evade security controls, harvest contact information for abuse, submit fraudulent or deceptive inquiries, or use automated traffic in a manner that materially degrades service. Nothing on this site grants permission to conduct intrusive security testing. See our Security & Responsible Disclosure page for reporting a suspected vulnerability.

Intellectual property

Unless otherwise indicated, the site's branding, original text, diagrams, graphics, and other original materials are owned by or licensed to MiamiDadeTech and are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. You may view and print reasonable portions for your own internal informational use. No trademark or other rights are granted by implication.

Third-party products and links

References to third-party products, standards, organizations, or websites are for informational purposes and do not necessarily constitute endorsement. Third-party services are governed by their own terms, security practices, availability, and privacy practices.

Disclaimer of warranties

To the extent permitted by applicable law, the public website and its general informational content are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis without warranties of uninterrupted availability, error-free operation, fitness for a particular purpose, or guaranteed results. Nothing in this section limits rights or obligations that cannot lawfully be limited.

Limitation concerning website use

To the extent permitted by applicable law, MiamiDadeTech is not responsible for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or similar losses arising solely from reliance on free general website content or from inability to access the public website. Any liability arising from a paid consulting engagement is governed by the applicable written engagement agreement. This provision does not exclude liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.

Changes and severability

We may update these terms as the site or applicable requirements change. If a provision is determined to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions are intended to remain effective to the extent allowed by law.
