Welcome to Fortress Interior Design
Welcome to Fortress Interior Design LLC. We are committed to making the process of finding and connecting with independent interior designers simpler, more accessible, and more personalized.
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Fortress Interior Design website, independent designer directory, Find Your Designer Quiz, matching features, contact forms, and related online services (collectively, the “Platform”).
Throughout these Terms, “Fortress Interior Design,” “Fortress,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Fortress Interior Design LLC, an Arizona limited liability company.
“User,” “you,” and “your” refer to any individual or entity accessing or using the Platform, including homeowners, prospective clients, interior designers, and website visitors.
Please read these Terms carefully before using our Platform.
By affirmatively accepting these Terms through a form or other acceptance mechanism, you agree to the provisions presented to you, subject to applicable law. Your use of publicly accessible website content may also be subject to applicable notices and conditions; merely visiting a webpage does not necessarily establish your agreement to every contractual provision.
If you do not agree with these Terms, please do not submit inquiries, use our designer matching features, or participate in services requiring acceptance.
1. Purpose of Our Platform
Fortress Interior Design LLC operates primarily as an interior designer discovery, matching, and referral platform.
Our mission is to simplify the process of finding independent interior design professionals by helping clients explore designers whose styles, services, experience, and project preferences may align with their needs.
The Platform may provide:
An online directory of participating independent interior designers.
A personalized Find Your Designer Quiz.
Designer profiles, portfolios, professional biographies, and service descriptions.
General information about interior design and home improvement.
Opportunities for prospective clients to connect with participating independent designers.
Information regarding affiliated construction services and potential design-and-build opportunities.
Forms through which interior designers may apply to participate in our network.
Fortress Interior Design LLC primarily provides connections between prospective clients and independent design professionals.
Unless we expressly agree otherwise in a separate written contract, we do not provide, perform, manage, supervise, or guarantee the professional interior design services offered by participating independent designers.
2. Independent Interior Designers
Interior designers featured through our Platform generally operate as independent third-party professionals.
Unless a designer is expressly identified as having a different relationship with Fortress Interior Design LLC, participating designers are not our employees, agents, legal representatives, partners, or joint venturers.
Each participating designer is independently responsible for their own business operations and professional activities, including:
Client consultations and communication.
Design recommendations and creative decisions.
Project proposals and written agreements.
Service fees, deposits, invoices, and payment terms.
Project scheduling and deliverables.
Product selections, specifications, and purchasing arrangements.
Professional qualifications and required authorizations.
Business insurance and compliance with applicable laws.
Completion and quality of contracted design services.
Customer service, complaints, refunds, and contract disputes.
Inclusion in our network does not create an employment relationship, partnership, joint venture, or agency relationship between Fortress Interior Design LLC and any participating designer.
Participating designers do not have authority to make binding commitments, warranties, or representations on behalf of Fortress Interior Design LLC unless expressly authorized in writing.
3. No Automatic Professional or Contractual Relationship
Using the Fortress Interior Design website, completing a designer matching questionnaire, viewing a designer profile, or receiving a designer recommendation does not automatically establish a professional service agreement with Fortress Interior Design LLC or any independent designer.
Any interior design services offered by an independent designer are subject to the designer’s acceptance of the project and the terms agreed upon between the designer and the client.
Unless Fortress Interior Design LLC expressly signs a separate written agreement undertaking specific professional services, we are not a party to the contractual relationship between a client and an independent designer.
Our role in facilitating an introduction does not, by itself, make us responsible for performing, supervising, enforcing, or guaranteeing a designer’s contractual obligations.
4. Designer Matching and Recommendations
Our Find Your Designer Quiz and related matching services are designed to help users identify potential interior design professionals based on information available to the Platform.
Matching criteria may include:
Preferred interior design styles.
Project type and scope.
Project location.
Anticipated budget.
Desired services.
Designer specialties.
Availability information supplied by participating professionals.
Other preferences or information voluntarily submitted by users.
Matches and recommendations are provided for informational and introductory purposes.
Fortress Interior Design LLC does not guarantee that a designer recommendation will result in a successful professional relationship or completed project.
We do not guarantee a particular designer’s availability, acceptance of a project, affordability, professional compatibility, design results, or ability to fulfill every client expectation.
Users are solely responsible for deciding whether to contact, interview, retain, or enter into a contract with a recommended professional.
No user is obligated to hire a designer recommended through our Platform.
5. Designer Profiles, Qualifications, and Representations
Designer profiles may contain information supplied directly by participating professionals.
Such information may include education, experience, professional credentials, certifications, service areas, design specialties, portfolio photographs, pricing information, and professional biographies.
Each designer is responsible for providing truthful, accurate, and current information.
Fortress Interior Design LLC may review information submitted by designers for completeness, suitability, or compliance with our Platform policies. However, any such review does not constitute a comprehensive verification of professional qualifications or an endorsement of all representations made by a designer.
Unless expressly stated otherwise, Fortress Interior Design LLC does not warrant that every participating designer has undergone a complete background investigation, independent credential verification, or assessment of past work.
Users should independently evaluate any professional they are considering hiring.
This may include reviewing references, confirming insurance coverage, verifying relevant licensing or registrations, examining previous projects, discussing experience, and reviewing contractual terms.
Any services requiring a particular professional license, registration, permit, or authorization must be performed by appropriately qualified and authorized individuals or businesses.
6. Client Responsibility and Due Diligence
Users acknowledge that selecting and hiring an independent interior designer is an individual decision.
Before entering into a professional relationship, clients are encouraged to:
Conduct independent research concerning the designer.
Review the designer’s qualifications and previous work.
Request and compare written proposals.
Confirm the scope of services being offered.
Review applicable fees and payment requirements.
Discuss estimated timelines and expected deliverables.
Understand revision, cancellation, and refund provisions.
Verify any required professional licensing or insurance.
Obtain a written agreement before authorizing services or making substantial payments.
Fortress Interior Design LLC does not guarantee that any individual designer will be suitable for a particular project.
Users retain responsibility for evaluating whether a selected professional meets their individual requirements.
7. Agreements Between Clients and Designers
All agreements concerning independently provided interior design services should be established directly between the client and the selected designer.
The parties are responsible for negotiating their own terms, including:
Scope of services.
Design fees and deposits.
Payment schedules.
Purchasing arrangements.
Project schedules.
Revisions and additional services.
Deliverables and ownership rights.
Changes to the project.
Cancellation and refund policies.
Dispute resolution procedures.
Fortress Interior Design LLC is not automatically responsible for interpreting, managing, administering, or enforcing these agreements.
Any obligations undertaken directly by an independent designer remain the responsibility of that designer, subject to applicable law.
Our introduction of the parties does not constitute a guarantee of either party’s performance.
8. Designer Fees, Payments, Deposits, and Refunds
Independent designers establish their own pricing, fee structures, payment requirements, refund policies, and other financial terms.
Unless expressly stated otherwise in a separate written agreement, Fortress Interior Design LLC does not collect, process, hold, or administer payments for independent designer services.
Payments made directly to an independent designer are governed by the terms agreed upon between the client and that designer.
Fortress Interior Design LLC does not guarantee reimbursement or repayment of deposits, retainers, design fees, purchasing costs, or other amounts paid directly to independent professionals.
Any disputes regarding fees, billing, deposits, refunds, or unpaid balances arising under an independent designer’s contract should ordinarily be addressed between the contracting parties.
If Fortress Interior Design LLC separately offers paid Platform features or services, the applicable pricing, payment requirements, and refund terms will be disclosed before purchase.
Nothing in this section limits any consumer refund rights or remedies required by applicable law.
9. Referral Arrangements, Featured Designers, and Financial Relationships
Fortress Interior Design LLC may enter into business relationships with participating independent designers and affiliated service providers.
Depending on the arrangement, these relationships may involve network participation fees, marketing fees, referral compensation, featured placement, promotional opportunities, or other commercial considerations.
Where a financial or other material relationship could reasonably affect how a designer or service provider is presented or recommended, we will provide appropriate disclosures in connection with the relevant recommendation or promotional content.
Unless expressly stated otherwise, placement within the designer directory does not constitute a guarantee of superior qualifications, performance, or suitability.
Users retain the freedom to compare participating designers and select professionals based on their own preferences.
Fortress Interior Design LLC may establish separate written participation agreements governing its relationships with independent designers.
These Terms do not replace those agreements.
10. Relationship With Fortress Contracting LLC
Fortress Interior Design LLC and Fortress Contracting LLC are affiliated but legally separate businesses.
Fortress Interior Design LLC operates its designer discovery, matching, and referral Platform.
Fortress Contracting LLC separately offers construction and remodeling services, subject to its own agreements, licensing obligations, and applicable laws.
Users are not required to hire Fortress Contracting LLC in order to use the Fortress Interior Design Platform, receive a designer recommendation, or work with an independent designer.
Clients are free to select the contractor of their choice.
For eligible projects, users may elect to explore construction services through Fortress Contracting LLC or participate in available design-and-build arrangements.
Any construction agreement must be established separately with the relevant contracting entity.
A designer referral or introduction made through Fortress Interior Design LLC does not automatically create a construction contract with Fortress Contracting LLC.
Likewise, working with Fortress Contracting LLC does not automatically establish a separate interior design contract with Fortress Interior Design LLC or a participating independent designer.
Each company is responsible for the duties it independently and legally undertakes.
Any preferred pricing, coordination opportunities, or promotional benefits are subject to eligibility, availability, and applicable written terms.
No specific construction price, designer discount, or financial savings is guaranteed.
11. Construction, Architecture, Engineering, and Regulated Services
The Platform’s referral and designer discovery features do not constitute an offer by Fortress Interior Design LLC to perform construction, architectural, engineering, or other regulated professional services.
Some interior design projects may require specialized services, including structural evaluation, building permits, licensed construction work, inspections, or other professional approvals.
Unless Fortress Interior Design LLC expressly undertakes particular services through a lawful separate written agreement, it does not serve as the project’s contractor, construction manager, architect, engineer, or jobsite supervisor.
Fortress Interior Design LLC does not guarantee that independent designers’ plans, specifications, recommendations, or product selections will comply with all applicable building codes, permit requirements, accessibility requirements, or other technical standards.
Clients and the professionals they retain are responsible for determining which permits, approvals, licenses, or additional qualified professionals are required.
No information provided through the Platform should be interpreted as authorization to perform regulated work without the qualifications required by law.
12. Project Performance and Outcomes
Fortress Interior Design LLC does not guarantee the outcome of any project independently performed by participating designers or third-party professionals.
Potential issues may include:
Changes in project scope or cost.
Design disagreements.
Communication difficulties.
Product delays or discontinuations.
Incorrect measurements or specifications.
Material defects or installation problems.
Scheduling delays.
Unsatisfactory workmanship.
Incomplete services.
Unanticipated expenses.
Contractual disputes.
Except to the extent Fortress Interior Design LLC independently causes a legally actionable harm or expressly assumes an obligation, responsibility for services performed under a separate agreement generally remains with the professionals and parties involved.
Any project estimates, inspiration images, renderings, budget information, or anticipated completion dates displayed on the Platform are informational and should not be considered guaranteed outcomes.
13. Third-Party Products, Vendors, and Contractors
Participating designers may recommend furniture, appliances, fixtures, finishes, building materials, manufacturers, suppliers, contractors, installers, or other products and service providers.
Unless Fortress Interior Design LLC separately enters into a transaction as the seller or contracting party, we do not assume responsibility for independently purchased products or third-party services.
Third-party transactions may be subject to their own purchasing terms, warranties, return policies, shipping arrangements, and contractual provisions.
Users are encouraged to review those terms before making purchases or commitments.
The appearance or mention of a third-party provider on our Platform does not automatically establish an agency relationship, partnership, or guarantee by Fortress Interior Design LLC.
14. Eligibility and Authorized Use
The Platform’s interactive matching, inquiry, and designer application features are intended for individuals who are at least eighteen (18) years old and legally capable of entering into binding agreements.
By using features that require acceptance of these Terms, you represent that you meet these eligibility requirements or are otherwise legally authorized to act on behalf of the person or entity you represent.
You agree to use the Platform only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms.
You may not:
Provide knowingly false or misleading information.
Impersonate another individual or business.
Submit fraudulent inquiries or designer applications.
Attempt to gain unauthorized access to Platform systems.
Interfere with website security or functionality.
Distribute malicious software or harmful code.
Copy, scrape, reproduce, or commercially exploit substantial portions of the Platform without authorization.
Use the Platform to harass, threaten, defraud, or unlawfully discriminate against another person.
Misrepresent a professional affiliation with Fortress Interior Design LLC.
Use Platform content in a manner that infringes the intellectual property or privacy rights of others.
We may restrict access, reject submissions, or discontinue participation when reasonably necessary to protect the Platform, comply with applicable law, or address violations of these Terms.
15. User-Submitted Information
Users may submit information through questionnaires, contact forms, designer applications, and other interactive website features.
You agree to provide information that is accurate to the best of your knowledge and that you are authorized to submit.
Information submitted may include contact details, project locations, design preferences, budgets, scheduling preferences, project descriptions, and other relevant details.
You are responsible for ensuring that any materials you submit do not infringe the rights of third parties or violate applicable laws.
Please do not submit Social Security numbers, banking passwords, complete payment card numbers, or other unnecessary sensitive information through general website forms.
By submitting information for a requested designer match or introduction, you authorize Fortress Interior Design LLC to use that information for the requested service and to share relevant details with participating designers as described in our Privacy Policy and applicable notices.
Submission of a form does not guarantee that a match, referral, response, or professional service will be available.
16. Designer Applications and Network Participation
Interior designers who apply to participate in the Fortress Interior Design network must provide accurate information concerning their business, services, experience, qualifications, and portfolio materials.
Submitting an application does not guarantee acceptance into the network or continued participation.
Fortress Interior Design LLC may establish eligibility criteria, review applications, request additional information, and approve or decline participation, consistent with applicable law.
Acceptance into the network may require execution of a separate Independent Designer Network Participation Agreement.
Such an agreement may govern additional obligations, including professional representations, confidentiality, insurance requirements, intellectual property, referral arrangements, payment terms, complaint procedures, and termination.
If a separate written participation agreement conflicts with these Terms concerning an expressly covered matter, the participation agreement will control for that matter unless otherwise stated.
No designer may represent that their participation constitutes employment by Fortress Interior Design LLC unless that relationship has actually been established and accurately disclosed.
17. Designer Portfolios and Submitted Content
Participating designers may provide photographs, renderings, project descriptions, written materials, branding, and other portfolio content for display on the Platform.
Designers submitting such content represent that they own the necessary rights or have obtained appropriate authorization to provide and permit its use.
By submitting portfolio content for publication, the submitting party grants Fortress Interior Design LLC a nonexclusive, royalty-free license to reproduce, display, format, and promote that content in connection with operation and promotion of the designer network, subject to any applicable separate written agreement.
The submitting party retains any ownership rights they otherwise hold.
Fortress Interior Design LLC may remove or decline content that appears inaccurate, unauthorized, misleading, inappropriate, or inconsistent with Platform policies.
If you believe content displayed on the Platform violates your intellectual property rights, please contact us through our website and provide sufficient information to identify the material and explain your concerns.
18. Intellectual Property and Website Content
The Fortress Interior Design name, branding, logos, website layout, written materials, graphics, original photographs, and other proprietary Platform content are protected by applicable intellectual property laws.
Except for content owned by third parties or used under license, Fortress Interior Design LLC retains its applicable ownership and intellectual property rights.
Users are granted a limited, nonexclusive, nontransferable, revocable permission to access and view the Platform for lawful personal or internal business purposes consistent with these Terms.
This permission does not authorize reproduction, redistribution, publication, resale, or commercial exploitation of our proprietary content without written permission.
Designer-submitted portfolios and other third-party materials may be subject to separate ownership and licensing rights.
Nothing in these Terms transfers ownership of any intellectual property except where expressly stated.
19. Educational and Informational Content
The Platform may publish articles, frequently asked questions, design inspiration, remodeling information, project planning guidance, and other educational materials.
Such content is provided for general informational purposes.
It does not constitute individualized architectural, engineering, construction, legal, financial, or other regulated professional advice.
Fortress Interior Design LLC does not guarantee that general content will be suitable for every project, property, location, or circumstance.
Users should consult appropriately qualified professionals before making decisions involving structural modifications, electrical systems, plumbing, permits, building safety, legal obligations, or significant financial commitments.
20. Privacy and Data Handling
Your privacy is important to us.
Our separate Privacy Policy describes our practices concerning the collection, use, disclosure, and handling of personal information submitted through or collected in connection with the Platform.
Personal information may be processed to respond to inquiries, provide requested designer matching services, facilitate introductions, administer applications, and operate the website, consistent with our Privacy Policy and applicable law.
Independent designers receiving client information may have their own privacy obligations and practices.
Users are encouraged to review the applicable privacy policies of any third-party professionals or services they choose to use.
Our Privacy Policy is incorporated into these Terms for reference, but its publication does not waive rights or obligations imposed by applicable privacy or consumer protection laws.
21. Third-Party Websites and Technology Providers
Our Platform may contain links to websites, forms, software applications, social media profiles, or other services operated by third parties.
We may also use third-party technology providers to support website hosting, questionnaires, form submissions, communication, analytics, or other Platform functionality.
Third-party websites and services may have their own terms, privacy policies, and operational practices.
Fortress Interior Design LLC does not control every feature, representation, or security practice of independently operated third-party websites.
Accessing an external website or engaging with a third-party provider may subject you to that provider’s separate terms.
To the extent permitted by law, Fortress Interior Design LLC is not responsible for the independent conduct of unrelated third-party service providers.
22. Website Availability and Technical Limitations
We make reasonable efforts to maintain a functional and accessible website.
However, we do not guarantee that the Platform will always be available, uninterrupted, error-free, secure from every threat, or compatible with every device or browser.
Website functionality may be affected by maintenance, technical problems, third-party service interruptions, internet connectivity, or circumstances beyond our reasonable control.
We may modify, suspend, or discontinue Platform features when reasonably necessary for business, operational, security, or legal reasons.
We do not guarantee uninterrupted access to any particular designer profile, matching feature, or website service.
23. Complaints and Disputes Involving Independent Designers
We recognize that disagreements may arise between clients and independent interior designers.
These may concern project scope, design preferences, fees, delays, communications, purchases, incomplete services, or contractual performance.
Disputes involving an independent designer’s separate professional agreement should ordinarily be addressed directly between the client and that designer.
Fortress Interior Design LLC is not automatically a party to those disputes merely because we facilitated the introduction.
We may, at our discretion, review concerns regarding a participating designer and determine whether action relating to their Platform participation is appropriate.
Such action may include requesting clarification, reviewing information, restricting a profile, or removing a designer from the network.
Reviewing a concern does not create an obligation to provide mediation, arbitration, legal representation, financial reimbursement, or a particular resolution.
Nothing in these Terms limits any claim or remedy that cannot lawfully be excluded.
24. Disclaimer of Warranties
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE PLATFORM AND ITS INFORMATIONAL, DIRECTORY, AND MATCHING FEATURES ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS.
FORTRESS INTERIOR DESIGN LLC DOES NOT MAKE AN EXPRESS WARRANTY THAT THE PLATFORM WILL PRODUCE A PARTICULAR DESIGNER MATCH, RESULT IN A SUCCESSFUL PROFESSIONAL RELATIONSHIP, OR MEET EVERY INDIVIDUAL USER REQUIREMENT.
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM IMPLIED WARRANTIES ASSOCIATED WITH THE PLATFORM, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT, EXCEPT WHERE SUCH WARRANTIES CANNOT LAWFULLY BE DISCLAIMED.
WE DO NOT WARRANT THE COMPLETENESS OR ACCURACY OF ALL INFORMATION INDEPENDENTLY SUBMITTED BY THIRD-PARTY DESIGNERS.
NO INFORMATION PROVIDED THROUGH THE PLATFORM CREATES A PROFESSIONAL PERFORMANCE GUARANTEE BY FORTRESS INTERIOR DESIGN LLC UNLESS EXPRESSLY ESTABLISHED IN A SEPARATE WRITTEN AGREEMENT.
THESE DISCLAIMERS DO NOT ELIMINATE WARRANTIES, STATUTORY RIGHTS, OR REMEDIES THAT APPLICABLE LAW DOES NOT ALLOW TO BE DISCLAIMED.
25. Limitation of Liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, FORTRESS INTERIOR DESIGN LLC SHALL NOT BE LIABLE SOLELY BY REASON OF FACILITATING AN INTRODUCTION FOR THE INDEPENDENT ACTS, OMISSIONS, CONTRACTUAL BREACHES, PROFESSIONAL ERRORS, MISREPRESENTATIONS, OR MISCONDUCT OF THIRD-PARTY INTERIOR DESIGNERS, CONTRACTORS, VENDORS, OR OTHER SERVICE PROVIDERS.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, FORTRESS INTERIOR DESIGN LLC SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING FROM THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PLATFORM, INCLUDING LOST PROFITS, LOST BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES, OR SIMILAR CONSEQUENTIAL LOSSES, EXCEPT WHERE SUCH LIABILITY CANNOT LAWFULLY BE LIMITED.
FORTRESS INTERIOR DESIGN LLC DOES NOT ASSUME LIABILITY FOR THE COST, QUALITY, SAFETY, TIMELINESS, OR RESULTS OF THIRD-PARTY PROFESSIONAL SERVICES SOLELY BECAUSE A CLIENT AND DESIGNER CONNECTED THROUGH THE PLATFORM.
NOTHING IN THESE TERMS EXCLUDES OR LIMITS LIABILITY FOR OUR OWN CONDUCT WHERE SUCH LIABILITY CANNOT LAWFULLY BE EXCLUDED, INCLUDING LIABILITY THAT MAY ARISE UNDER APPLICABLE CONSUMER PROTECTION LAWS OR OTHER NONWAIVABLE LEGAL DUTIES.
THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS APPLY ONLY TO THE EXTENT ENFORCEABLE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW AND DO NOT ALTER EXPRESS OBLIGATIONS ACCEPTED BY FORTRESS INTERIOR DESIGN LLC UNDER A SEPARATE WRITTEN AGREEMENT.
26. Indemnification
To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless Fortress Interior Design LLC and its authorized representatives from third-party claims, losses, liabilities, and reasonable legal expenses arising directly from:
Your unlawful use of the Platform.
Your material breach of these Terms.
Your knowing submission of fraudulent, infringing, or unauthorized materials.
Your infringement of a third party’s intellectual property or privacy rights through content you submit.
Your intentional misconduct in connection with use of the Platform.
This provision does not require you to indemnify Fortress Interior Design LLC for losses resulting from the company’s own negligence, misconduct, breach of law, or other conduct for which indemnification is prohibited by applicable law.
It does not obligate a client to assume Fortress Interior Design LLC’s legal responsibility merely because the client independently hired a participating designer.
Any separate indemnification obligations applicable to participating designers must be established in their individual written participation agreements.
27. Changes to the Platform and Terms
Fortress Interior Design LLC may periodically update the Platform, its features, business policies, and these Terms.
When changes are made, the revised Terms may be posted with an updated effective date.
Material changes may require additional notice or affirmative acceptance where required by law or the applicable agreement.
Revisions will not automatically alter previously executed contracts or retroactively eliminate rights that have already accrued.
Continued use of Platform services after receiving appropriate notice of revised Terms may constitute acceptance where permitted by law and the applicable acceptance process.
Users who do not accept revised Terms should discontinue using features that require acceptance.
28. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
Except where otherwise required by applicable law, these Terms and disputes concerning their interpretation are governed by the laws of the State of Arizona, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.
Subject to applicable law and any controlling separate written agreement, legal proceedings arising directly from these Terms may be brought before a court of competent jurisdiction in Maricopa County, Arizona.
This provision does not eliminate any mandatory consumer protection rights or other legally required jurisdictional protections.
Before initiating formal legal proceedings concerning the Platform, users are encouraged, but not required, to contact Fortress Interior Design LLC to explain the concern and explore a possible informal resolution.
This section does not impose mandatory arbitration or waive a user’s right to pursue an otherwise available court proceeding.
29. Severability
If any provision of these Terms is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unlawful, invalid, or unenforceable, that provision shall be enforced only to the extent legally permissible, or severed where necessary.
The remaining provisions shall remain in effect to the extent permitted by applicable law.
30. No Waiver
A failure by Fortress Interior Design LLC to enforce a particular provision of these Terms does not automatically waive the company’s right to enforce that provision in the future.
Any waiver must be legally valid and applicable to the specific circumstances involved.
31. Entire Agreement and Separate Written Contracts
These Terms govern use of the Platform and its covered online features.
Together with any policies expressly incorporated by reference and any applicable separately accepted conditions, they form the relevant agreement concerning Platform use.
These Terms do not replace independent professional service contracts between clients and designers.
They also do not replace separate agreements for construction services, paid Platform services, designer participation, or other specifically contracted work.
In the event of a conflict, a separately executed written agreement will control with respect to the particular services and obligations that it expressly governs, unless applicable law requires otherwise.
32. Contact Information
