Website Terms of Use

• •Consumer: an individual using the Site wholly or mainly for purposes outside their trade, business, craft or profession.
• •Business User: anyone using the Site in the course of a trade, business, craft or profession.

Some parts of these terms apply differently depending on which you are. Where a clause applies to only one group, we say so.

If anything in these Terms of Use conflicts with our Terms & Conditions, the Terms & Conditions take priority for any quotation or order.

We may update these Terms of Use from time to time. The version published on the Site when you use it is the one that applies to you, so please check this page regularly. The "Last updated" date above shows when the terms were last changed.

Unless otherwise indicated, we own or license all of the following, and they are protected by UK and international copyright and trademark laws:

• •the Site;
• •all source code, databases, functionality, software, website designs, text, photographs, video and graphics on the Site (the "Content"); and
• •the trademarks, service marks and logos on the Site (the "Marks").

You may view, download and print pages and Content from the Site for your own personal reference or for evaluating our services, for example to share a material datasheet with a colleague when considering an order.

Except as permitted above, you must not copy, reproduce, republish, distribute, sell, license or otherwise use any part of the Site, the Content or the Marks for any commercial purpose without our express prior written permission. When you share Content as permitted above, you must not remove any copyright or other notices, and must not modify the Content in a way that misrepresents it or us.

You may link to our homepage, provided you do so in a way that is fair and lawful and does not damage our reputation or take advantage of it. You must not:

• •suggest any form of association, approval or endorsement on our part that does not exist; or
• •link from any website that you do not own.

• •Ownership: You keep full ownership of, and all intellectual property rights in, your Contributions.
• •Your Warranty: By uploading a Contribution, you confirm that you own the rights in it, or hold all the licences and permissions needed, to authorise us to use it for the purpose of providing our services.

• •Limited Licence: You grant us a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to process, slice and reproduce your Contribution solely to prepare your quotation and manufacture the parts you order.
• •No Other Use: We will not use your Contributions for any other purpose, including marketing, publication or resale, without your express written consent.
• •Refusing Contributions: We may remove or refuse any Contribution if we reasonably believe it relates to:
• ◦a prohibited item under §6 of our Terms & Conditions;
• ◦a food or drink contact item under §4.3 of our Terms & Conditions; or
• ◦an item that infringes third-party rights.

Uploaded files are stored securely and handled in line with our Privacy Policy. Unless you ask us to keep them for repeat orders, we delete files for quotations that do not proceed within 60 days, and files for completed orders 12 months after dispatch. You can ask us to delete your files sooner at any time by emailing support@novalab3d.com.

Blog guides, material datasheets, design advice and other informational content on the Site are provided for general information only. They are not professional engineering advice. Before relying on any of this information, you should independently validate material choices, tolerances and designs for your own application. Although we make reasonable efforts to keep this information accurate and up to date, we do not guarantee that it is complete or current.

Any automated price estimates, instant quotes or 3D mesh geometry previews generated on the Site are indicative only and are not an offer to supply. A binding contract is formed only in the way set out in §2.3 of our Terms & Conditions, following a written quotation from us. If an automated estimate contains an obvious error, we are not obliged to supply at that price.

Where the Site contains links to other websites and resources provided by third parties, these links are for your information only. We have no control over the content of those sites or resources and are not responsible for them.

We do not guarantee that the Site will be secure or free from bugs or viruses. You are responsible for configuring your own technology to access the Site, and should use your own virus protection software. We are not liable for any loss or damage caused by a virus or other technologically harmful material that may infect your computer equipment, programs, data or other material as a result of your use of the Site, except where that loss is caused by our failure to use reasonable care and skill.

This clause applies to Business Users only. Subject to the first paragraph of this section 8, we will not be liable to you, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty or otherwise, for any of the following arising from your use of, or inability to use, the Site or any Content on it:

• •loss of profit, revenue, business, goodwill or data; or
• •any indirect or consequential loss.

If you are a consumer, we only provide the Site for domestic and private use. You agree not to use the Site for any commercial or business purposes. We have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption or loss of business opportunity.
