Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using Home Theater Visualizer ("the Service"), available at hometheatervisualizer.com, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, you may not use the Service.

2. Description of Service

Home Theater Visualizer is a free web-based tool that allows users to design and visualize home theater rooms in 3D. The Service includes features such as room layout planning, speaker placement calculation, projector throw distance estimation, acoustic treatment planning, and seating layout tools. The core design tool is free to use without an account. Optional account creation enables saving and sharing projects.

3. User Accounts and Responsibilities

You may create an account to save and manage your projects. You are responsible for:

• Maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials
• All activity that occurs under your account
• Providing accurate information when creating an account
• Notifying us promptly if you suspect unauthorized access to your account

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms.

4. Intellectual Property

Your designs: You retain full ownership of all room designs, configurations, and project data you create using the Service. We claim no intellectual property rights over your designs.

Our tool: The Service itself, including its source code, design, graphics, user interface, and documentation, is owned by Home Theater Visualizer and protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or reverse-engineer any part of the Service.

5. Calculations and Estimates

All calculations, measurements, recommendations, and visualizations provided by the Service are estimates for planning purposes only. They do not constitute professional engineering, architectural, or acoustic consulting advice. Room acoustics, speaker performance, and projector behavior in real environments are affected by many variables that cannot be fully captured by an online tool. Always consult a qualified professional AV installer or acoustician before making significant investments or structural modifications based on results from this tool.
