We may update these Terms from time to time. The current version will always be posted on this page with the date it was last updated. Changes take effect when posted, and your continued use of the Site after that point means you accept the updated Terms. We recommend reviewing this page periodically.

You must not:

All content on the Site — including text, photography, film and video, illustrations, renders, layouts, page and interface design, graphics, logos, brand names, case studies, and written articles — is owned by or licensed to Crane Day Studio and is protected by Australian and international copyright, trade mark, and other intellectual property laws.

You may view the Site and print or download extracts for your own personal, non-commercial reference. You must not remove or alter any copyright, trade mark, or other proprietary notice.

4.1 Client work and third-party marks

Work shown on the Site may have been produced for clients and may feature their brands, products, trade marks, properties, or personnel. Those materials remain the property of the relevant owner and are shown for portfolio and illustrative purposes only. Nothing on the Site grants you any right to use a client's brand, imagery, or intellectual property. All third-party names and marks are the property of their respective owners, and their appearance on the Site does not imply any endorsement, partnership, or affiliation unless expressly stated.

4.2 Our name and brand

"Crane Day Studio", our logo, and our visual identity are our trade marks. You must not use them without our prior written consent.

If you contact us through the Site, by email, or through any form or link we provide, you are responsible for the accuracy and lawfulness of what you send.

Unless we have agreed otherwise in writing (for example, under a signed engagement or non-disclosure agreement), we do not treat unsolicited enquiries as confidential. Please do not send us confidential, sensitive, or commercially privileged information through the Site before we have a written agreement in place.

We welcome briefs and enquiries, but we do not accept unsolicited creative concepts, campaign ideas, or business proposals for consideration. If you send us unsolicited material, you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide licence to use it without obligation to you, and you agree we are not liable if we independently develop anything similar. You warrant that anything you send us does not infringe the rights of any third party.

The Site — including any articles, insights, or commentary published under Thought — is provided for general information and to describe our services. It is not professional advice.

Nothing on the Site constitutes legal, financial, marketing, engineering, building, planning, construction, certification, or investment advice, and it should not be relied on as a substitute for advice from a qualified professional who understands your specific circumstances. Modular housing is subject to building codes, planning controls, licensing requirements, and consumer protection laws that vary between states, territories, and local government areas. You are responsible for obtaining your own advice before acting.

Any case studies, results, timelines, or outcomes described on the Site reflect particular projects and particular circumstances. They are not a promise, guarantee, or prediction of results for any other business.

We take care in preparing the content of the Site, but we do not warrant that it is complete, accurate, current, or free from error. Content may be changed or removed at any time without notice.

The Site describes our services in general terms. It is not an offer capable of acceptance and does not create any contract for services.

Any work we undertake for a client is governed by a separate written agreement — such as a proposal, statement of work, scope document, engagement letter, or master services agreement — which will set out the scope, deliverables, fees, timelines, intellectual property arrangements, and licensing terms for that engagement. If there is any inconsistency between these Terms and a signed engagement agreement, the engagement agreement prevails in relation to that engagement.

The Site may contain links to third-party websites, platforms, tools, or resources, and may embed third-party content or services (including hosting, analytics, media, and form providers).

We provide these for convenience only. We do not control, endorse, or accept responsibility for third-party sites or content, their accuracy, their availability, or their privacy and security practices. Accessing a linked site is at your own risk and subject to that site's own terms and policies.

We aim to keep the Site available and functioning, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free access. The Site may be unavailable during maintenance, upgrades, or as a result of matters outside our control, including issues affecting our hosting or infrastructure providers, telecommunications networks, or third-party services.

We may modify, suspend, or discontinue the Site or any part of it at any time without notice or liability.

You are responsible for the security of your own devices, network, and internet connection, and for maintaining your own anti-virus and security measures.

Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts, or modifies any guarantee, right, or remedy you have under the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth), including the Australian Consumer Law, or any other law that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited (Non-Excludable Rights).

Subject to your Non-Excludable Rights, the Site and its content are provided "as is" and "as available", and we exclude all warranties, representations, guarantees, and conditions of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise, including as to accuracy, completeness, fitness for a particular purpose, availability, security, or freedom from error, virus, or harmful component.

Where we are liable for a failure to comply with a Non-Excludable Right and the relevant goods or services are not of a kind ordinarily acquired for personal, domestic, or household use or consumption, our liability is limited, at our option, to resupplying the services or paying the cost of having them resupplied.

Subject to clause 10 and your Non-Excludable Rights, and to the maximum extent permitted by law:

• we exclude all liability arising out of or in connection with your access to or use of the Site, your reliance on any content on the Site, or your inability to access the Site, whether that liability arises in contract, tort (including negligence), under statute, or otherwise;
• we are not liable for any indirect, special, incidental, or consequential loss, or for any loss of profit, revenue, business, opportunity, goodwill, anticipated savings, or data, however caused; and
• our total aggregate liability in connection with the Site and these Terms is limited to AUD $100.

This clause does not affect any liability arising under a separate signed engagement agreement, which will be governed by the terms of that agreement.

You indemnify us and our directors, officers, employees, and contractors against any claim, loss, damage, cost, or expense (including reasonable legal costs) arising from or in connection with your breach of these Terms, your misuse of the Site, or your infringement of any law or of any third party's rights.

We handle personal information in accordance with our Privacy Policy, which forms part of these Terms. Please read it to understand how we collect, use, store, and disclose personal information, and how to contact us about it.

These Terms are governed by the laws of New South Wales, Australia. You and we submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of New South Wales and the courts able to hear appeals from them.

The Site is directed at users in Australia. If you access the Site from elsewhere, you do so on your own initiative and are responsible for compliance with your local laws.

Severability. If any part of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, that part is severed to the extent necessary and the rest of these Terms continue to apply.

Waiver. If we do not enforce a right under these Terms, that is not a waiver of that right or of any other right.

Entire agreement. These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, form the entire agreement between you and us in relation to your use of the Site, and supersede any earlier understanding in relation to the Site.

Survival. Clauses 4, 5, 6, 10, 11, 12, 14, and 15 survive any termination of your access to the Site.

Assignment. We may assign or novate our rights and obligations under these Terms in connection with a sale or restructure of our business. You may not assign your rights without our written consent.
