Our Intellectual Property Rights

Unless otherwise indicated, copyright in this website and the information contained on it including any images, drawings and designs is owned by us. All of our rights are reserved.

It is illegal to copy, reproduce, sell or transmit by any means or otherwise exploit this website or anything (including any image, written information, drawing or design) contained on it for any commercial purpose unless we expressly authorise you to do so in writing.

Ownership or copyright in any image, drawing or design owned by us will not pass to you at any stage.
 
Your Intellectual Property Rights
Specifically in relation to Fusion Customart.

If you submit any image, drawing or design for reproduction by the Fusion Customart method, you expressly warrant and represent to us that you own all legal and moral rights to it. You expressly authorise and licence us to reproduce that image, drawing or design for the purpose of complying with your order for the Fusion product.

When you submit any design to have reproduced by the Fusion Customart method, please send us the details of your design in line with the process outlined in the "Fusion Customart " process and order section in the Fusion surfaces website (www.fusionsurfaces.com).

Once we get your design specifications, we will produce a "sample" of your design for you to check and confirm that you are happy with it. There will be a small charge for this. Depending on the design, we may need to charge you an additional fee for any additional file manipulation that is required to make a file suitable for outputting via the Customart process. We will get your agreement to that charge before we commence work on the sample where a non-standard charge applies.

 
Colour reproduction

Although the pictures of the Fusion designs set out on our website are as accurate as we can make them, different computers offer different quality and standards of image and reproduction. As a result, we do not guarantee that the image which is produced on your computer will match the Fusion product exactly and we will not be liable to you for any apparent differences when the Fusion product has been manufactured in accordance with its specifications. However, we are able to provide you with standard colour details on each of our designs as well as samples at a small charge if you request it so you can see what the final Fusion product will look like. Although you don’t always have to have a sample of the design before we fulfil your order, we strongly recommend that you do order a sample.
