Terms and Conditions

1. About these terms

These Terms and Conditions govern your use of getdsm.com, operated by Design Source Media LLC ("DSM," "we," "us," or "our").

The website provides information about DSM, introduces our brands, and directs visitors to relevant websites and contact channels.

2. Scope and separate agreements

These terms apply to the use of getdsm.com. Services offered through DSM brands are subject to their applicable terms, privacy notices, proposals, and agreements.

These website terms do not replace or amend signed client contracts, nondisclosure agreements, employment agreements, or other signed agreements. If a signed agreement governs a particular service or relationship, that agreement continues to apply.

3. Acceptable use

You must use the website lawfully and respect the rights of others.

You must not:

• Attempt to access systems or information without authorization.
• Introduce malicious code or interfere with the website's operation.
• Circumvent security measures.
• Use the website or its content for fraud, impersonation, or other unlawful activity.
• Infringe intellectual-property, privacy, or other legal rights.

We may take reasonable steps to restrict access or protect the website when we identify misuse or security risks, subject to applicable law.

4. Website content and intellectual property

Website content, including text, graphics, logos, and design elements, belongs to DSM or the relevant rights holders.

You may view the website and use its content to learn about DSM and its brands. Except where permitted by applicable law or authorized by the relevant rights holder, you may not reproduce, distribute, modify, or commercially exploit that content.

5. Information and availability

We aim to keep website information accurate and current, but descriptions, links, and availability may change. Contact the relevant team to confirm details before relying on information for a particular engagement.

Descriptions of brands or future initiatives do not guarantee availability, a launch date, or a particular service outcome.

We may update or temporarily suspend parts of the website for maintenance, security, or operational reasons. This does not alter obligations under separate signed agreements.

6. Links to brands and other websites

The website includes links to DSM-affiliated brand websites and other external destinations. Each destination may have its own operator, terms, and privacy practices.

An affiliation with DSM does not mean every brand offers the same services or operates under identical agreements. Review the applicable terms before engaging a brand or using another website.

7. Inquiries and correspondence

You can contact [email protected] for general questions, partnerships, and other inquiries. We may route your inquiry to the appropriate team or brand.

Sending an inquiry starts a conversation; it does not, by itself, establish a paid-service engagement or amend an existing agreement. Paid work requires a separate proposal or service agreement.

We may use inquiry materials to review and respond to your inquiry. Broader use requires separate permission or a service agreement. Sending materials does not give us unrestricted rights to publish or commercially reuse them. Our handling of personal information is described in the Privacy Policy.

Please do not send confidential business materials unless DSM has already agreed to receive them under confidentiality terms, such as a nondisclosure agreement. Existing confidentiality agreements continue to apply.

8. Privacy

9. Disclaimers and liability

This website and its content are provided "as is" and "as available" for general information. We do not guarantee that the website will always be available, uninterrupted, or error-free.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Design Source Media LLC will not be liable for indirect or consequential losses arising from your use of, or inability to use, this website.

Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability that cannot legally be excluded or limited, or changes our obligations under a separate signed agreement.

10. Governing law

These Terms and Conditions are governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Michigan, United States, subject to any mandatory laws that apply.

11. Changes to these terms

We may update these Terms and Conditions from time to time. Revised terms will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. Where required by applicable law, we will provide additional notice or obtain agreement to the changes. Continued browsing alone does not automatically mean acceptance of revised terms. Changes to these Terms do not amend separately signed agreements.

12. Severability

If a provision of these terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue to apply to the extent permitted by law.
