The Haus Edit
Content Rights & Licensing
1. Scope and purpose
This Content Rights & Licensing Policy ("Policy") explains ownership, permitted use, attribution, and reporting of copyright concerns in The Haus Edit iOS application (the "App"), its related website materials, imports, user-created projects, and reports. The App is operated by Atelier Building Co., LLC under the Haus of Zimmerman brand.
This Policy supplements our Terms of Use and does not waive exceptions or rights granted by applicable law.
2. Our original intellectual property
The App's original source code, design elements, text, graphics, interface, logos, visual identity, and original report layouts are owned by us or lawfully used from their respective licensors, as applicable.
These materials may be protected by United States copyright, trademark, trade-secret, and other applicable laws. Copyright protects eligible original expression, not facts, ideas, techniques, measurements, or methods of operation as such.
Except for the limited license provided under the applicable App Store agreement and our Terms, you receive no ownership interest in these proprietary materials.
3. Your original project content
You retain the rights you lawfully own in original project information you create or supply, such as measurements, drawings, room descriptions, notes, original photographs, and furniture arrangements. Saving a project in the App does not transfer these rights to us.
A product photograph or other third-party material in your project remains subject to its actual rights holder. Possession of an image or access to a product page is not, by itself, proof of a license to redistribute it.
4. Processing license for app features
You authorize the App to use, reproduce, transform, and display content to the limited extent necessary to deliver functions you request, such as local project storage, room visualizations, imported images, and generated reports.
Based on the documented beta configuration, private projects are stored locally on the device; saving them does not give us a general right to publish, sell, market with, or otherwise commercially exploit your private project materials.
If you choose to send a screenshot, PDF, or project material to support, you permit us and relevant service providers to review and use it only as reasonably necessary to respond, investigate, or comply with applicable law.
5. Retailer images and third-party content
The App may let users add furniture and product links, descriptions, pricing, images, specifications, and other information from third-party sources. Such materials remain the property of their lawful rights holders.
A third-party brand, image, or listing appearing in the App does not imply sponsorship, endorsement, partnership, or permission to reproduce it beyond the applicable license or other legal basis.
You are responsible for having suitable rights or another lawful basis to import and share content. Where we provide third-party materials, their use must be supported by an appropriate permission, license, or recognized legal exception. We may remove or restrict app-provided content when rights are uncertain.
6. Exports and reports
You may create, export, print, and share your own project reports for lawful personal, household, or client-project planning purposes. These permissions do not grant a license to isolate or resell the App's proprietary visual templates, logos, or software.
Third-party photographs or product information included in a report remain subject to their owners' rights. Before relying on an exported document for purchasing, fabrication, construction, or installation, verify its measurements, products, clearances, and conditions independently.
Reports are preliminary room-planning aids, not permit drawings, architectural or engineering certifications, or assurances of building-code compliance.
7. Prohibited uses and lawful exceptions
Except as authorized by us or allowed by applicable law, users may not:
- Copy, distribute, republish, sublicense, or commercially exploit proprietary App materials outside their licensed use.
- Remove or falsely alter ownership notices or logos.
- Impersonate or falsely imply endorsement by Haus of Zimmerman or any retailer or manufacturer.
- Import, post, or distribute copyrighted images or other material without an appropriate legal basis.
- Circumvent access controls or reverse engineer protected software except where applicable law expressly permits.
Nothing in this section limits lawful fair use, other statutory exceptions, or uses separately authorized by a rights holder.
8. Copyright concerns and reporting
Copyright owners or authorized representatives may report material controlled or published by us that they believe infringes their rights. Send notices to studio@hausofzimmerman.com and include the work claimed, the material and its location, your contact details, a good-faith statement, an accuracy/authority statement made under penalty of perjury, and your physical or electronic signature.
We will evaluate sufficiently specific notices and take appropriate action. This reporting email is not a representation that a designated agent has been registered under 17 U.S.C. § 512. If a statutory DMCA designated agent is required for our service, we will separately register and publish that agent's details.
We cannot remotely remove materials stored exclusively within a user's private on-device project.
9. Feedback and ideas
Voluntarily submitted App suggestions or beta feedback are governed by the feedback terms in our Terms of Use. Supplying feedback does not automatically grant us rights in your private photos, original client designs, or other unrelated project files.
10. Privacy and shared content
Information handling is described in our Privacy Policy. You control what you choose to export or send through external sharing destinations, but recipients may hold independent copies after you share.
11. Updates to this policy
We may update this Policy when copyright arrangements, App features, third-party licensing, or laws change. The date above reflects the version made available on this webpage.
