The rules of
the road.
These terms apply to your use of dreamio.studio. Engagements for design and build work are governed by a separate written proposal and agreement — not by this page.
WHO WE ARE
DREAM IO is a technology studio based in Sydney, NSW, Australia. Trading name: DREAM IO. ABN to be registered — details updated here on registration. Contact: hello@dreamio.studio.
WHAT THIS SITE IS
dreamio.studio is a marketing and informational site for our studio. It includes a contact form and a multi-step project brief for people who want to start a conversation about work. Information on the site is provided for general guidance and to help you decide whether to engage us.
USING THE SITE
You can use this site freely, but please don't:
- Scrape, crawl, or harvest content or forms in a way that disrupts the service.
- Submit malicious payloads, spam, or false information through the forms.
- Attempt to bypass the rate limits, honeypot, or other security measures.
- Reproduce our brand, logo, or copy outside fair use without our permission.
- Use the site for anything unlawful.
ENQUIRIES AREN'T CONTRACTS
Submitting the contact form or a project brief is an enquiry, not a binding engagement. We'll reply with a written proposal that sets out scope, timeline, deliverables, and price. Work only starts once that proposal is accepted in writing (email counts) and any agreed deposit is paid.
OWNERSHIP OF CLIENT WORK
For engagements we take on:
- On final payment, you (the client) own the code, designs, and final deliverables we produce specifically for you.
- DREAM IO retains the right to reuse generic tools, components, libraries, and techniques we've built. These are the craft we bring to every project and are not exclusive to one client.
- DREAM IO may include the work in our portfolio and case studies (including this site) unless otherwise agreed in writing during the engagement.
- Pre-existing materials you provide (logos, copy, photography, etc.) remain yours, and you warrant that you have the rights to give them to us for use in the project.
WARRANTIES
We use reasonable skill and care in everything we do. This marketing site itself is provided "as is" — we don't warrant that it will be error-free, uninterrupted, or suitable for every purpose.
Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts, or modifies any consumer guarantee, right, or remedy under the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth) (including the Australian Consumer Law) that cannot lawfully be excluded. Where those laws apply, those rights prevail.
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
To the maximum extent permitted by law, DREAM IO's total aggregate liability for any claim arising out of or in connection with your use of this marketing site is capped at AUD $100. The minimum remedies that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law continue to apply where they are higher. This cap does not apply to liabilities under a separate signed engagement agreement — those are governed by the proposal you accept.
We are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential losses arising from your use of this site.
THIRD-PARTY LINKS
The site may link to third-party websites. We don't control those sites and aren't responsible for their content or practices. Visit them at your own discretion.
PRIVACY
Your use of this site is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which explains what we collect and how we handle it.
CHANGES TO THESE TERMS
We may update these terms from time to time. The "last updated" date at the top of the page will change, and material changes will be announced on this page. Continued use of the site after changes means you accept the updated terms.
GOVERNING LAW
These terms are governed by the laws of New South Wales, Australia. The courts of New South Wales have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising from these terms or your use of the site.
