In effect September 28, 2026. These are our interim terms, published while our lawyers review them. They will be updated when that review is done, and the date above will change.
These Terms are an agreement between you and Blatchford Dahl Media Inc., carrying on business as BDM3d Studios ("BDM3d", "we"), a British Columbia company. They apply when you use bdm3d.com, its city editions, or StudioLink (together, "the Services"). Paid work is governed by our Terms of Engagement, which you accept with each estimate. Where the two conflict on an order, the Terms of Engagement win.
1. Who can use the Services
You must be 18 or older and able to enter a contract. If you use the Services for a company, you confirm you are allowed to act for it, and these Terms bind that company.
2. Your account
StudioLink accounts are by invitation. Keep your sign-in private and tell us straight away at daniel@bdm3d.com if you think someone else has used it. You are responsible for what happens under your account unless you told us it was compromised. Some people are invited as guests (for example, a consultant reviewing renderings). A guest sees only what the account holder shares with them.
3. Using the Services properly
Do not: break the law; upload material you have no right to use; try to get into accounts, workspaces or systems that are not yours; interfere with the Services or probe them for weaknesses without our written permission; copy or scrape the Services or other people's information; use the Services to send spam; or pass off our work as your own. We may suspend access that puts the Services or other people at risk, and we will tell you why.
4. Your content
You keep ownership of the drawings, models, files, comments and other material you upload ("Your Content"). You give us a licence to store, copy, process and display Your Content, and to create the work you ask us for from it (renderings, animations, tours, plan sheets, websites and marketing material), for as long as needed to provide the Services and deliver that work. You confirm you have the right to give us that licence. Ownership of what we create for you is set by the Terms of Engagement for the order, not by these Terms.
If you believe something on the Services infringes your rights, write to daniel@bdm3d.com and we will look at it promptly.
5. AI features
Some features use artificial intelligence (see our Privacy Policy, §2). AI output can be wrong. Check anything that matters before you rely on it. A rendering or AI-assisted image is an artistic representation, not a construction document, and must not be relied on for dimensions, structure, code compliance or as-built accuracy. We do not use Your Content to train AI models.
6. Other services you connect
If you connect another service (for example Google Calendar), your use of it is governed by that provider's own terms. You can disconnect it at any time. We use a connection only to show you your own information inside StudioLink.
7. Our property
The Services, their software, design and content (other than Your Content) belong to us or our licensors. These Terms give you permission to use them, not ownership of them.
8. Availability and changes
We work to keep the Services available and your data safe, but we cannot promise they will be uninterrupted or error-free. We may change features. If a change removes something you rely on, we will give reasonable notice.
9. Ending your use
You can stop using the Services and ask us to close your account at any time. We may close an account on 30 days' notice, or sooner if you seriously breach these Terms or the law requires it. Before an account closes for any reason other than a serious breach, you can download your content. After closing, we keep only what the law requires (see the Privacy Policy).
10. Responsibility
Nothing in these Terms limits rights you have under consumer protection law that cannot be excluded. Otherwise:
- we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, or for loss of profit, business or data that you could have avoided (for example, by keeping your own copy of files);
- our total liability arising from use of the Services (not an order) is limited to CA$1,000 or the fees you paid us in the previous 12 months, whichever is greater;
- for paid work, the Terms of Engagement set the limit.
11. Law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada that apply there. Disputes go to the courts of British Columbia. Before going to court, each of us will first try to settle the matter by talking in good faith for 30 days.
12. Changes to these Terms
We will post any new version with its date and, for a material change, tell account holders by email at least 30 days before it applies. Changes do not apply to anything that happened before them.
