Terms of Service

Effective Date: October 10, 2026
Last Updated: October 10, 2026

Please read these Terms of Service ("Terms") carefully before accessing or using the services provided by DenverNerd (denvernerd.com), including technical publications, community comment systems, digital 3D STL CAD models, firmware configurations, and software blueprints.

By browsing the site, registering an account, or purchasing digital assets, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

1. Digital Products, Blueprints & Licensing

A. Non-Exclusive License Grant

All digital files, CAD blueprints, stereolithography (.STL) files, .STEP models, and .CFG firmware templates purchased or downloaded from DenverNerd are licensed to you on a per-user, non-exclusive, non-transferable basis for personal, homelab, and internal prototyping use.

B. Prohibited Commercial Resale

Unless explicitly authorized under a written enterprise license:

• You may not resell, redistribute, sub-license, mirror, or publicly share the raw digital source files (.STL, .STEP, .3MF, .ZIP).
• You may not upload DenverNerd blueprints to public 3D model repositories (e.g., Printables, Thingiverse, MakerWorld) as standalone assets or derivatives without written attribution and consent.

C. Physical Manufacturing

You are permitted to 3D print, CNC machine, or fabricate physical items from purchased digital models for personal, educational, or prototype homelab equipment use.

2. Disclaimer of Warranties & Physical 3D Printing Risks

A. "As-Is" Digital Delivery

All technical guides, digital blueprints, 3D models, and configuration macros are provided on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied.

B. 3D Printing & Electrical Equipment Safety

• Physical 3D printing involves high temperatures, molten thermoplastic extrusion, heated build plates, mechanical kinematics, and electrical wiring.
• Toolhead mounts, rackmount ears, and high-temperature PETG/ABS/ASA components must be sliced and printed in accordance with engineering best practices, filament vendor guidelines, and adequate structural infill.
• DenverNerd disclaims all liability for hardware damage, printer toolhead fires, mechanical failures, data loss, personal injury, or equipment downtime resulting from the fabrication, assembly, or installation of physical parts generated from our digital blueprints.

3. Account Responsibility & Community Conduct

• You are responsible for safeguarding your login credentials. Notify us immediately of unauthorized account access.
• In technical comment threads (/blog/{slug}), you agree not to submit abusive, defamatory, malicious code snippets, unauthorized advertisements, or unlawful content.
• Operators reserve the right to moderate, flag as spam, or remove comments violating engineering decorum.

4. Payments, Refunds & Digital Fulfillment

• All payments are billed in United States Dollars (USD) and processed securely via Stripe.
• Due to the irrevocable nature of instant digital asset streaming and cryptographic download token delivery, all digital sales are final once fulfillment tokens are generated. If a model file is corrupt or contains geometry errors, our engineering team will provide updated revision assets promptly upon notification.

5. Intellectual Property Rights

DenverNerd retains all right, title, and interest in and to the DenverNerd core engine, logos, technical writing, photography, and original CAD blueprint geometries. All rights not expressly granted herein are reserved.

6. Governing Law & Dispute Resolution

These Terms shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Colorado, United States, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any legal actions or proceedings arising hereunder shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Denver County, Colorado.
