Clamping rotation of an object

Hi I am trying to create a basic camera system which at the moment moves the way I want it to except for the x axis going to high and to low in relation to the camera target. How would I be able to clamp the x axis. I am using a secondary objects rotation to position my camera so I know I have to clamp how far that object can rotate but I am unsure how to.

I wish to use the constraintsX float to be the value for the clamp.

Here is my code:

  public GameObject target;
  public float rotateSpeed = 5;
  public float constraintsX;
  Vector3 offset;
 
  void Start()
  {
      offset = target.transform.position - transform.position;
  }
 
  void LateUpdate()
  {
      
      float horizontal = Input.GetAxis("Horizontal") * rotateSpeed;
      float vertical = Input.GetAxis("Vertical") * rotateSpeed;
 
      target.transform.Rotate(0, horizontal, 0, Space.World);
      target.transform.Rotate(vertical, 0, 0);
 
      float desiredAngleY = target.transform.eulerAngles.y;
      float desiredAngleX = target.transform.eulerAngles.x;
      Quaternion rotation = Quaternion.Euler(desiredAngleX, desiredAngleY, 0);
      transform.position = target.transform.position - (rotation * offset);
      transform.LookAt(target.transform);
      //Property of Vadom
  }

Thanks In Advance for your help
