Claim GEARH3D designs as your own.
Use GEARH3D designs, trademarks, logos, or other intellectual property for commercial purposes.

Downloading a file does not transfer ownership of the design or its intellectual property rights.

Some files or programs may have different licensing terms. When separate terms are provided with a particular item, those terms take precedence.

Commercial Printing & Authorized Sellers

GEARH3D Garage may separately authorize individuals or businesses to manufacture or sell physical products based on certain GEARH3D designs.

Commercial printing or resale is not permitted unless you have received authorization from GEARH3D Garage or the specific content is expressly identified as permitting commercial use.

3D Printing & Safety

3D printing involves equipment, materials, heat, moving components, tools, and other potential hazards. Users are responsible for operating their equipment safely and following the instructions and recommendations provided by their printer and material manufacturers.

Print results can vary depending on the printer, material, slicer settings, calibration, environment, and modifications made by the user.

GEARH3D Garage cannot guarantee that every downloadable design will print or perform identically on every machine.

Parents or guardians should supervise children when 3D printers, tools, small parts, or other potentially hazardous equipment are involved.

Products & Builds

GEARH3D products may contain small parts and are intended only for appropriate age groups as indicated on the product or packaging.

Modifying, resizing, substituting materials, or 3D printing replacement or upgrade components may affect the strength, performance, fit, or safety of a product. Users are responsible for determining whether their modifications are appropriate for their intended use.

Intellectual Property

Unless otherwise stated, the GEARH3D Garage name, logos, graphics, product designs, photographs, downloadable files, website content, and other original materials are owned by or licensed to GEARH3D Garage and are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws.

Permission to use the website or download content does not grant ownership of these materials.

User-Submitted Content

If GEARH3D Garage allows users to submit photographs, builds, reviews, comments, or other content, you retain ownership of your original content.

By voluntarily submitting content to GEARH3D Garage for sharing or publication, you grant GEARH3D Garage permission to display, reproduce, and share that content for purposes related to operating and promoting the GEARH3D Garage community and brand.

You should only submit content that you have the right to share.

Third-Party Services

The website may contain links to or integrations with third-party websites, applications, marketplaces, social networks, 3D-printing platforms, or other services.

GEARH3D Garage does not control those services and is not responsible for their content, availability, security, or privacy practices. Your use of third-party services is subject to their own terms and policies.

We may add, modify, update, replace, or remove website content, downloadable files, products, features, or services at any time.

We may also update these Terms of Use as GEARH3D Garage grows. Updated terms will be posted on this page with a revised “Last Updated” date.

Disclaimer

The website, downloadable content, and related resources are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis to the extent permitted by law.

GEARH3D Garage makes reasonable efforts to provide useful and functional designs but does not guarantee that every product, file, modification, or website feature will be suitable for every particular purpose.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, GEARH3D Garage will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from the use or inability to use the website, downloadable files, 3D-printed components, or related content.

Nothing in these Terms excludes rights or protections that cannot legally be excluded.
