Terms and conditions

This page sets out the terms for using sandippaudel.com (the "site"), a personal portfolio and blog published by Sandip Paudel. By using the site, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

The content on this site

The blog posts, guides and articles on this site are published for general informational purposes. They reflect Sandip's own research, professional experience and opinion at the time of writing, and are not a substitute for a site-specific engineering assessment. Figures, costs, subsidy rules and tariffs referenced in Nepal-specific posts change over time — always verify current numbers against a primary source before relying on them for a real project or purchasing decision.

Professional services

The service pages on this site describe engineering work Sandip carries out professionally — solar PV feasibility studies, technical due diligence, techno-economic modelling, CFD simulation and CAD design. Browsing these pages, or the site generally, does not create a client relationship or any obligation on either side. An actual engagement is agreed separately and directly, in writing, once scope, deliverables and terms have been discussed through the contact page.

Intellectual property

Unless a source is credited otherwise, the text, diagrams and images on this site are Sandip Paudel's own work. You are welcome to quote or link to it with attribution and a link back to the original page. Reusing substantial portions of the text, diagrams or downloadable slide decks elsewhere, without permission, is not permitted.

Third-party links and services

This site links to external services — LinkedIn, YouTube, GrabCAD, the Nepal Policy Forum and others — and uses third-party services to operate, including Resendfor the contact form and Google Tag Manager for analytics. Sandip is not responsible for the content, accuracy or practices of any external site or service. See the privacy policyfor how data is handled on this site specifically.

Advertising

This site may display advertising, including through Google AdSense, served by Google and its advertising partners. Advertisers and ad networks are responsible for their own ads and landing pages; their inclusion here is not an endorsement by Sandip Paudel. See the privacy policy for how advertising cookies are described and how to opt out of personalised advertising.

No warranty, no liability

The site and its content are provided "as is", without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including as to accuracy, completeness or fitness for a particular purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Sandip Paudel is not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of, or reliance on, this site or its content.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Nepal.

Changes to these terms

This page may be updated from time to time as the site changes — for example, when advertising goes live or a new third-party service is added. The date of the most recent change is not tracked separately; check back periodically if this matters to you.
