Terms & Conditions

These Terms and Conditions ("Agreement") govern the development services provided by Federico Crespo ("Developer", "I", "me") through crespa.dev to the client ("Client", "you").

By purchasing any service or token package, you agree to be bound by these terms. Please read them carefully before making a purchase.

I provide AI-powered development services using a "Human + AI" methodology. This means:

• A real human developer (me, Federico) works on your project
• I use AI tools (Claude by Anthropic) to accelerate development
• All code is reviewed, tested, and validated by me personally
• You get the benefits of both human judgment and AI speed
