Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of these terms

By accessing architecturetools.com you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree with them, please do not use the site.

2. What this website is

ArchitectureTools is an independent software directory for architects and designers. We catalogue, compare and write about software made by third parties.

We are not a software vendor, publisher or reseller. We do not sell anything on this website: there is no checkout, no subscription and no payment of any kind between you and us. Every purchase, licence, trial and refund is handled directly by the software vendor, under that vendor's own terms.

3. Information only, not professional advice

The content on this site is published for general information. It is not architectural, engineering, legal, financial or procurement advice, and it should not be the only basis for a purchasing decision. Always confirm the details with the vendor before you buy.

4. Accuracy and availability

Software prices, features, system requirements and licensing terms change frequently, and vendors change them without telling us. We research carefully but we cannot guarantee that everything on this site is current, complete or free of error. The site is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis, and we do not promise uninterrupted access.

5. Affiliate links and monetization

Some outgoing links on this site may be affiliate links, which means we may earn a commission if you buy or subscribe after clicking them, at no extra cost to you. This never changes our rankings or our editorial opinion. See the Affiliate Disclosure for the full explanation.

6. Intellectual property and trademarks

The text, structure, comparisons and original graphics of this site belong to ArchitectureTools. You may quote short extracts with a visible credit and a link to the source page, but you may not republish, resell or bulk-copy our content.

All trademarks, product names, logos and screenshots referred to on this site are the property of their respective owners. They are used for identification and editorial commentary only. ArchitectureTools is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by or otherwise connected to any of the vendors listed, unless a page says so explicitly. If you are a rights holder and want an asset corrected or removed, email architecturetools@outlook.com and we will act promptly.

7. Submissions

If you submit a tool, a correction or any other material, you confirm that you are entitled to share it and you allow us to publish, edit and shorten it on this site free of charge. Submitting something does not guarantee that it will be listed, and a listing is never for sale.

8. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• scrape, mirror or systematically copy the directory or the articles;
• attempt to disrupt, overload or gain unauthorised access to the site or its infrastructure;
• use the site for anything unlawful or misleading.

9. Third-party websites

This site links to vendor pages and other external resources. We do not control them and we are not responsible for their content, their pricing or their terms.

10. Disclaimer of warranties

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, and non-infringement.

11. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, ArchitectureTools will not be liable for any indirect, incidental or consequential loss, or for any loss of profit, data or business, arising from your use of this site or from a decision you made based on it. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.

12. Privacy

Your use of the site is also governed by our Privacy Policy and our Cookie Policy.

13. Changes

We may modify the site or these terms at any time. The revision date at the top of this page shows when the terms were last changed, and continuing to use the site after a change means you accept it.
