Terms of service

These Terms of Service ("Terms") are an electronic record under the Information Technology Act, 2000 and a binding agreement between you and DSource.AI ("we", "us"), governing your use of dsource.ai and its related tools and services (the "Platform"). They do not require a physical or digital signature.

You accept these Terms by checking the agreement box at signup, by clicking "I agree" where presented, or by using the Platform. If you do not agree, do not use the Platform. Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle personal data and forms part of your relationship with us, though consent to data processing is obtained separately as required by law.

• –“Input” — anything you submit to an AI feature, including uploaded photos, text prompts, and design parameters.
• –“Output” — AI-generated content returned to you, such as design renders and material analyses.
• –“User Content” — Inputs and any other content you submit to the Platform (e.g., contact messages, saved specs).
• –“Vendor Content” — product listings, descriptions, specifications, images, image links, and catalog data submitted by Vendors.
• –“User” — anyone who uses the Platform; “Vendor” — a User with a vendor account who submits Vendor Content.

• –You must be at least 18 years old and capable of entering a binding contract under the Indian Contract Act, 1872. The Platform is not offered to minors.
• –You are responsible for your login credentials and for all activity under your account. Notify us immediately of any unauthorized use.
• –You must provide a valid email address. One person or entity per account unless we agree otherwise in writing.
• –We may refuse, suspend, or terminate registration at our discretion, including for suspected fraud, abuse, or legal risk.
• –Vendor accounts are subject to the additional terms in Section 8. We may require verification before or after granting vendor capabilities and may revoke them at any time.

The Platform provides AI-assisted interior-design tools (material detection from photos, design visualization), a catalog of building-material and furnishing products, spec-sheet building tools, and a vendor portal for suppliers to manage product listings.

The Platform is under active development. Features may be added, modified, degraded, suspended, or removed at any time without liability, including AI models and third-party integrations we depend on. Some displayed features, metrics, figures, and documents are illustrative previews or samples of planned functionality and are not warranted to be real, accurate, or personalized — this includes, without limitation, indicative pricing figures, availability badges, dashboard analytics, and sample export documents.

Your Inputs. You retain ownership of your Inputs. You grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, reproduce, process, adapt, and transmit Inputs — including processing them through third-party AI models — solely to operate, provide, secure, and improve the Platform. We do not use your Inputs or Outputs to train AI models without your separate opt-in consent.

You warrant that you own or have all necessary rights to your Inputs; that Inputs do not violate any law or any third party's intellectual-property, privacy, or other rights; and that any identifiable person or private property shown in an uploaded photo is included with the necessary permission.

Outputs. As between you and us, and subject to your compliance with these Terms, you own the Outputs generated from your Inputs. You grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, reproduce, and display Outputs to operate the Platform, and — only if you mark a render as public or submit it to a public gallery — to display it publicly with attribution. AI-output copyright law is unsettled in many jurisdictions; we make no warranty that Outputs are protectable or non-infringing, and you bear the risk of your use, including commercial use, of Outputs.

AI features are provided by third-party model providers (currently Google's Gemini API). Your use of AI features must also comply with the applicable provider's prohibited-use policies. AI feature availability, quality, and limits depend on those providers and may change or be discontinued at any time.

DSource.AI is an intermediary and discovery platform. Product listings and catalog data are Vendor Content or third-party information that we host; we are not the seller, manufacturer, importer, or agent of any listed product, we are not a party to any transaction between you and a supplier, and we do not verify products or listings unless expressly stated. Nothing on the Platform is an offer to sell by DSource.AI.

• –Product names, images, specifications, colors, dimensions, availability indicators, and prices are supplied by vendors or third parties, are indicative only, and may be inaccurate, incomplete, out of date, or shown as placeholders. Currently displayed prices and availability badges are illustrative and are not offers or quotations.
• –Rendered and photographed colors, textures, and finishes vary by display and may differ materially from the physical product. Natural materials (stone, wood, ceramics) vary batch to batch.
• –Before purchasing or specifying any product, you must verify specifications, pricing, availability, and suitability directly with the supplier, including physical samples where relevant.
• –Spec sheets and estimates generated on the Platform (including any tax, margin, or savings figures) are informational drafts using indicative values — they are not quotations, invoices, or financial or professional advice.
• –Links and buttons may take you to external third-party websites we do not control and are not responsible for.

Third-party product names, brand names, and trademarks appearing in listings belong to their respective owners, are used for product identification only, and do not imply any affiliation with or endorsement of or by DSource.AI.

The Platform is currently provided without charge. Paid plans, trials, and billing shown on the pricing page are forthcoming offerings and cannot yet be purchased; no payment is collected and no subscription is created today. When paid plans launch: fees, billing cycles, trial terms, renewal, and cancellation will be as stated at the point of purchase; we will give at least 30 days' notice of price changes for existing subscribers; usage described as "unlimited" is subject to fair use and technical limits; and fees for consumed AI generations are non-refundable except where required by law or expressly stated.

These additional terms apply to Vendors:

• –You represent and warrant that: you own or are licensed to use all Vendor Content, including every image and every URL you link; listings are accurate, not misleading, and correspond to the actual nature, quality, and features of the product; products are genuine, lawful, and compliant with applicable Indian standards; and you hold all registrations required for your business (including GST where applicable).
• –You grant DSource.AI a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable license to host, reproduce, adapt, display, and distribute Vendor Content across the Platform — including processing Vendor Content through AI models and rendering vendor products within user-generated scenes and spec documents. This license survives termination for content already incorporated into user documents, caches, and backups.
• –You must not link images or content you have no rights to use, upload data scraped from other marketplaces, or list products you are not authorized to supply.
• –We may review, edit, reject, delist, or remove any listing, suspend or terminate vendor capabilities, and maintain records of repeat infringers, at our discretion. We do not guarantee listing placement, visibility, exclusivity, or that listing data will not be modified, overwritten, or lost — maintain your own records.
• –Dashboard statistics and analytics shown in the vendor portal may include sample or illustrative data and are not warranted accurate or complete; do not rely on them for business decisions.
• –You are solely responsible for your taxes, and for compliance with the Consumer Protection (E-Commerce) Rules, 2020 obligations that apply to sellers, including providing accurate seller identity and customer-care information when requested.
• –You will indemnify DSource.AI (Section 13) without cap for claims arising from your products, listings, or breach of these warranties.

In line with Rule 3(1)(b) of the Information Technology (Intermediary Guidelines and Digital Media Ethics Code) Rules, 2021, you must not host, upload, submit, or share content that: belongs to another person without authorization; is defamatory, obscene, pornographic, paedophilic, or invasive of another's privacy (including bodily privacy); is harassing, or promotes enmity or violence; infringes any patent, trademark, copyright, or other proprietary right; deceives or misleads about the origin of a message or knowingly communicates misinformation; impersonates another person; contains malware or code designed to disrupt any system; threatens the unity, integrity, security, or sovereignty of India or public order; or otherwise violates any law.

In addition, you must not:

• –Use AI features to generate deceptive imagery, or present Outputs as photographs of real products or completed work without disclosure.
• –Attempt to extract, reverse-engineer, or benchmark the underlying models or systems, or circumvent rate limits, feature gates, or access controls.
• –Scrape, bulk-download, harvest, or resell Platform content, catalog data, or other users' content, or access the Platform by automated means except public search indexing.
• –Upload images of other people's private property or of identifiable people without permission, or content containing others' sensitive personal information.
• –Post fake listings or reviews, manipulate pricing data, or use the Platform to send spam or unsolicited communications.
• –Resell, sublicense, or provide the Platform to third parties as a service.

We may remove content, restrict features, throttle usage, and suspend or terminate accounts on violation, on court or government order, or on actual knowledge of unlawful content.

The Platform — including its software, design, user interface, text, graphics, trademarks (including "DSource.AI"), and the selection and arrangement of its content — is owned by us or our licensors and protected by law. You receive only a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the Platform for its intended purpose. No rights are granted by implication.

If you send us feedback, ideas, or suggestions, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free right to use them without restriction or compensation.

If you believe content on the Platform infringes your rights or violates the law, submit a complaint to our Grievance Officer:

• –Email: hello@dsource.ai (attention: Grievance Officer)

Include: identification of the work or right concerned, the URL or location of the material, your contact details, a statement of your ownership or authority, and a good-faith declaration that the complaint is accurate. We acknowledge complaints within 24 hours and dispose of them within 15 days, act on court and government orders within the timelines required by law, and maintain a repeat-infringer policy under which repeat infringers' accounts are terminated. Content removed on a copyright complaint may be restored if the complainant does not obtain a court order within the period prescribed under the Copyright Rules.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law:

• –We are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, punitive, or exemplary damages, or for loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, or business opportunity, however arising.
• –We are not liable for: your reliance on unverified Outputs; differences between visualizations or listings and physical products; the acts, omissions, products, or content of vendors and other third parties; transactions between you and any supplier; third-party AI provider or hosting outages; or unauthorized access resulting from your failure to secure your credentials.
• –Our total aggregate liability for all claims arising out of or relating to the Platform or these Terms is limited to the greater of (a) the amounts you paid us in the 12 months preceding the event giving rise to the claim, or (b) INR 5,000.
• –These allocations of risk are a basis of the bargain and apply regardless of the theory of liability (contract, tort, statute, or otherwise), even if a remedy fails of its essential purpose.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law, including liability for fraud, or affects the statutory rights available to consumers under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019.

You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless DSource.AI, its affiliates, and their officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against all claims, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your User Content or Inputs; (b) your use or commercial exploitation of Outputs; (c) your breach of these Terms or of applicable law; or (d) your violation of any third party's rights. For Vendors, this indemnity additionally covers, without cap: product liability, listing inaccuracy, intellectual-property infringement in Vendor Content, and tax, regulatory, and consumer-protection claims relating to your products or listings. We control the defense of any indemnified claim; you may not settle any claim without our written consent. This section survives termination.

• –You may stop using the Platform at any time and may request account deletion via hello@dsource.ai.
• –We may suspend or terminate your access immediately, with or without notice, for material breach, legal risk, suspected fraud or abuse, or extended inactivity; and for convenience with reasonable notice.
• –On termination: your license to the Platform ends; licenses you granted us survive to the extent needed for backups, legal compliance, and content already incorporated or shared; and we may delete stored content associated with your account after 30 days.
• –Sections that by nature should survive — including Sections 5 (license and warranties), 8 (vendor warranties and license), 10, 12, 13, 15, and 16 — survive termination.

We may update these Terms. We will post updates on this page with a new version number and date, and for material changes we will give at least 15 days' advance notice by email or an in-Platform notice before they take effect. If you do not agree to a change, stop using the Platform and, if applicable, terminate your account before the change takes effect; continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance. Material changes affecting vendor economics or license scope will require affirmative re-acceptance. We keep versioned records of these Terms.

These Terms are governed by the laws of India. Subject to the arbitration provision below, the competent courts in India have exclusive jurisdiction.

Any dispute arising out of or in connection with these Terms that we cannot resolve amicably within 30 days shall be referred to arbitration under the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, by a sole arbitrator appointed under the rules of a recognized Indian arbitral institution (e.g., the Mumbai Centre for International Arbitration), with its seat and venue in India, conducted in English. Each party bears its own costs unless the award provides otherwise.

Nothing in this Section limits: (a) a consumer's statutory right to approach the consumer dispute redressal fora under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019; or (b) our right to seek injunctive or equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction to protect intellectual property or prevent misuse of the Platform. To the extent permitted by law, disputes must be brought individually and not as part of a class or representative proceeding.

• –Severability: if any provision is held invalid, it will be reformed to the minimum extent necessary to be valid and enforceable while preserving its intent, and the remainder of these Terms remains in effect.
• –Entire agreement: these Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Platform and supersede prior understandings.
• –No waiver: our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it.
• –Assignment: you may not assign these Terms; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
• –Force majeure: we are not liable for delay or failure caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including outages or discontinuation of third-party AI model providers, cloud infrastructure, or networks.
• –Notices: we may notify you by email to your registered address or through the Platform; notices to us go to hello@dsource.ai.
• –Language: these Terms are executed in English; translations are for convenience only.
