Publisher and scope
This website is published by Marblethreadcrate Conservation SAS, SIREN 923 571 468, registered at 14 Rue de la Monnaie, 59000 Lille, France. Questions about these terms can be sent to [email protected].
These terms govern use of the site's editorial material and browser-based tools. The site provides general educational information about adaptive museum lighting. It does not provide a paid service, enter into a conservation consultancy relationship or offer a control system for deployment.
No object-specific advice
Lighting decisions can cause irreversible changes to collections. General descriptions, example readings and arithmetic are not recommendations for a particular object, exhibition or building. Consult appropriately qualified conservation, lighting, electrical, access and safety specialists before changing an installation or display policy.
No statement here certifies compliance with a standard, legal obligation or loan agreement. References to standards summarize their relevance, not their complete provisions. Always consult the current applicable source and the institution responsible for the decision.
Tools and illustrative content
The exposure tool multiplies illuminance by duration under a simplified constant-condition assumption. It does not calculate material damage, validate a lighting plan or establish a safe exposure allowance. Equal lux-hours do not necessarily represent equal risk.
The contact tool prepares plain text locally. Copying or downloading a message does not send it, create a support request or guarantee a response. You remain responsible for reviewing the text and choosing whether to send it through your own email service.
Conceptual images and example workflows illustrate mechanisms. They do not establish that a depicted product exists, that an institution uses a particular system or that any performance claim has been verified.
Accuracy, availability and liability
We aim to provide clear and useful explanations but cannot guarantee that every page is complete, current or free of error. Content and tools may be revised or unavailable without notice. Report a suspected error through the contact page.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, we are not responsible for loss arising from reliance on general educational material or from an interruption to the website. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, including liability for fraud, or limits mandatory consumer or data protection rights.
Permitted use and intellectual property
You may read, link to and print pages for personal study or internal discussion. Short quotations with clear attribution and a link are welcome where permitted by law. Reproducing substantial portions, redistributing site assets or presenting the material as your own requires permission unless an applicable legal exception permits it.
Third-party names, standards and materials remain subject to their respective rights. Their mention does not imply endorsement, partnership or affiliation. Do not interfere with site operation, attempt unauthorized access or use the contact address to send unlawful or abusive material.
External resources
External links are provided for context. Their content and availability are controlled by other organizations, and their inclusion is not a warranty of suitability. Assess the source, publication date and scope before relying on a technical statement.
Applicable law and updates
These terms are governed by French law, subject to any mandatory rights that apply in your jurisdiction. Any dispute is subject to the courts competent under applicable law; these terms do not remove a consumer's mandatory right to bring proceedings in another competent court.
Changes to these terms will be published on this page with an updated effective date. For personal information practices, read our privacy notice; for browser preferences, see cookie controls.
