Everything published on Design Cool, including articles, descriptions, images, rankings, daily features, quotes, links and advertisements, is provided for entertainment, educational and general information purposes only.

Design Cool does not warrant the accuracy or completeness of information supplied by designers, brands, advertisers or other third parties.

6. Intellectual Property
Featured works. The idea designs, products, projects, photographs, renderings, descriptions, names, logos and trademarks featured on Design Cool belong to the original creators, designers, brands and license holders of each work, who keep all rights to their intellectual properties. Each work is shown on Design Cool for editorial or entertainment purposes, and the presentation of a work on Design Cool leaves every single right with the respective owners.
Original materials of Design Cool. Except for third-party works, the original texts, the selection and arrangement of content and the layout of Design Cool are protected by copyright and are © 2008 – 2026 Design Cool. You are welcome to read Design Cool and to share links to pages of designcool.org for personal, non-commercial and lawful purposes. Please obtain prior and explicit written permission from the publisher of Design Cool, and from the relevant rights holders for featured works, before copying, reproducing, scraping, harvesting, mirroring, framing, republishing, redistributing, selling or otherwise exploiting content of designcool.org, except where the law expressly allows.
Notice to rights holders. If you are a creator or rights holder and believe that a feature on Design Cool infringes an intellectual property right, or gives incorrect credit, you can send a notice through the Design Cool Contact page, indicating the address of the page, identifying the work and your rights in the work, and providing a way to reach you. Design Cool reviews every notice promptly and carefully and, where appropriate, corrects or removes the content.
7. Third-Party Websites, Services and Advertising
Design Cool contains links to, and content from, third parties, including the A' Design Award & Competition, Designers.org, the Design Encyclopedia and other partner and affiliated websites. Third-party websites are operated independently of Design Cool, so their content, availability, terms and privacy practices remain solely the responsibility of the respective third party. You access third-party websites at your own risk and subject to the terms of the respective third party.
Advertising shown on Design Cool is delivered by Massive Outreach Ads Network, the advertising solution provider of Design Cool. Advertisements are supplied by third parties, and each advertised product, service or advertiser remains solely the responsibility of the respective advertiser. Any dealings between you and an advertiser are solely and exclusively between you and that advertiser.
8. Forms and Forwarding to Third-Party Services
Some features of Design Cool, such as the Design Cool Submit Design page, the Design Cool Newsletter page and the Design Cool Encyclopedia page, work in two steps. You provide a few details on designcool.org and may then be forwarded to a partner service that carries out the actual service. The partner service, and not Design Cool, is responsible for processing your information and for everything that happens after the forwarding, under the terms and the privacy policy of that service. You agree to provide accurate information and to enter only information that belongs to you or that you are authorized to share.
9. Acceptable Use
You agree to use Design Cool for lawful purposes, to access designcool.org through ordinary browsing and search engine indexing rather than through robots, crawlers, scrapers, bots or other automated means, to respect the security and availability of designcool.org, its servers and its networks, to provide truthful information through the forms of Design Cool, and to keep every credit, copyright, trademark and other notice intact.
10. Availability and Changes
The publisher of Design Cool may change, suspend or discontinue Design Cool, or any content or feature of Design Cool, at any time and without notice or liability. Design Cool Terms and Conditions may also be updated from time to time, and the date shown at the bottom of this page indicates the latest revision. Your continued use of Design Cool after a revision means that you accept the revised Design Cool Terms and Conditions.
11. Governing Law
Design Cool Terms and Conditions, and any dispute arising out of or in connection with Design Cool, are governed by the laws applicable in the jurisdiction of the publisher of Design Cool identified in the Design Cool Impressum, without regard to conflict of law principles, and the competent courts of that jurisdiction have jurisdiction, unless mandatory consumer protection laws of your country of residence provide otherwise.
12. General Provisions
If any provision of Design Cool Terms and Conditions is found invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect. A delay in enforcing any right or provision is not a waiver of that right or provision. Design Cool Terms and Conditions, together with the Design Cool Privacy Policy and the Design Cool Cookies Policy, form the entire agreement regarding the use of Design Cool.
