1. Contract and acceptance

This agreement, consisting of the DFrame End-User Licence Agreement and Software Terms (the “Agreement”), is binding between DFrame (the “Licensor”) and the person or organisation that registers, downloads, installs, accesses or uses DFrame (the “User”). The Agreement takes effect when the User actively selects the acceptance checkbox or clicks “Agree”, whichever occurs first. If a person accepts for an organisation, that person confirms that they are authorised to bind that organisation.

If the User does not agree, the User must not download, install, activate or use DFrame. A copy of the current Agreement remains available on this page. Version 1.0 is effective from 26 September 2026.

2. Licensor and scope

DFrame develops and supplies a software product and associated online licensing services; it does not supply consultancy hours, engineering services or project-specific professional advice under this Agreement. The Agreement covers the DFrame Revit add-in, DFrame Hub, released modules, Family Library content, installer, updates, documentation, support materials and any related hosted licensing or account service.

Legal entity: DFrame
Legal form: Sole proprietorship
Chamber of Commerce: 42173746

3. Order of documents

The applicable order, plan description or beta invitation determines the licence term, released modules, number of named users and devices, and any price. This Agreement governs product use. The Beta Terms add programme-specific rules during a beta. The Privacy Policy governs personal-data processing. In a conflict, a signed individual agreement prevails, followed by the applicable order, this Agreement, the Beta Terms and product documentation. Mandatory law always prevails.

4. Licence grant

Subject to timely payment where applicable and continued compliance, DFrame grants the User a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable and revocable right during the licence term to install and use the released DFrame version and enabled modules for the User’s internal professional purposes on supported systems. DFrame is licensed, not sold. No ownership or source-code rights are transferred.

A named-user licence may be used only by the named individual. Device, seat, account, module, organisation and geographic limits shown in the order or licence record form part of the grant. Temporary copies that are technically necessary for permitted use and one reasonable backup copy are allowed.

5. Accounts, activation and licence checks

The User must provide accurate registration and licence information and keep access credentials confidential.
Licence keys, tokens, download links and account access may not be shared, published or used for another person or organisation.
DFrame may validate entitlement, licence status, device limits, version and released modules online and may use a proportionate offline grace period.
The User must promptly report suspected unauthorised access and remains responsible for activity under its credentials to the extent permitted by law.
DFrame may refuse activation that exceeds purchased rights or reasonably indicates abuse, fraud or circumvention.

6. Permitted use and restrictions

The User may use DFrame only within the licence grant. The User must not:

copy, distribute, rent, lease, lend, resell, sublicense, host, timeshare or commercially exploit DFrame except as expressly permitted;
allow concurrent or shared use beyond purchased seats or named users;
circumvent or interfere with licence, module, account, device, security, update or access controls;
reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, derive source code from or create derivative works of DFrame, except and only to the extent a mandatory statutory right expressly permits this despite this restriction;
remove or obscure copyright, trade mark, attribution or proprietary notices;
use DFrame to develop, train, benchmark publicly or assist a competing product without DFrame’s prior written permission;
introduce malicious code, probe security, overload services or use DFrame unlawfully or in violation of third-party rights; or
represent DFrame output as independently verified engineering advice or use it as the sole basis for safety-critical decisions.

7. Autodesk Revit and system requirements

DFrame is an independent product for Autodesk Revit. DFrame is designed for Autodesk Revit 2025–2027. The current beta download includes and is verified for Revit 2025 only; Revit 2026 and 2027 are not yet included or verified. Autodesk does not sponsor, endorse or warrant DFrame. The User must obtain and maintain its own valid Autodesk and operating-system rights. Compatibility depends on the published system requirements, Revit version, updates, permissions and third-party environment. Changes made by Autodesk or another supplier may require a DFrame update or make a feature temporarily unavailable.

8. User content, models and output

The User retains ownership of Revit models, project data and other content supplied by the User. The User grants DFrame only the limited rights reasonably necessary to process content when the User deliberately uses an online feature or submits it for support. The User confirms it has the rights and authority required to do so.

The User is responsible for suitable backups, access permissions, project standards and review of previews, loaded families, changes and output before relying on, issuing or exchanging project information. Automation does not replace professional judgement, statutory checks, engineering verification or quality assurance.

9. Family Library content

Family Library content is supplied for use within the enabled DFrame workflow and the User’s own authorised Revit projects. Unless an item states otherwise, library content may not be extracted, repackaged, published, sold or distributed as a standalone library or competing collection. The User must verify dimensions, parameters, materials, classifications, manufacturer information and fitness for the relevant project before use.

10. Beta and pre-release software

A beta, preview or pre-release version is unfinished evaluation software. It may contain defects, change materially, lose data, produce incomplete output or be suspended or withdrawn. It must be used in a controlled and backed-up environment and not as the sole production or safety-critical tool. Beta functionality, access and support are not a promise that a feature will become generally available.

DFrame Beta 0.4.1 currently provides DFrame Hub and Family Library, Revisions, Links, and Project Data. Free access ends 27 December 2026, 12:00 UTC. Registration, installation or expiry does not create a paid subscription or automatic conversion. The separate Beta Terms apply.

11. Updates, changes and security

DFrame may provide patches, compatibility updates, security fixes and new releases. Updates may add, change or remove functionality where reasonably necessary for security, legal compliance, compatibility, product improvement or service continuity. Critical updates may be required to continue using online services. DFrame will communicate material adverse changes as required by applicable law.

The User must use supported versions, install critical security updates within a reasonable time and maintain appropriate endpoint, account and backup security. DFrame may temporarily restrict a compromised version or credential to protect users, systems or data.

12. Online services, availability and support

Hosted licensing, downloads, updates and support may depend on internet access and third-party infrastructure. Unless a separate service-level agreement expressly applies, no uninterrupted or error-free availability is guaranteed. Planned maintenance, emergency work, force majeure, security incidents and provider outages may affect availability.

Support scope, response targets and supported versions are those published for the applicable plan. Support excludes project design, engineering validation, Autodesk support and problems caused by unsupported systems, third-party changes or unauthorised modifications.

13. Privacy, diagnostics and audit records

Personal data is handled under the Privacy Policy. DFrame may process account, licence, activation, version, security and limited diagnostic information necessary to supply, secure and improve the product. Acceptance, licence and activation records may be retained as evidence of the agreement, entitlement, security and legal compliance. The User must not submit confidential project or personal data that is unnecessary for support.

14. Feedback

Feedback is voluntary unless the Beta Terms state that reasonable beta feedback is expected. The User grants DFrame a perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free right to use, adapt and incorporate feedback without identifying the User or disclosing confidential information. This does not transfer ownership of the User’s project data.

15. Fees, taxes and renewal

Fees, billing interval, licence term, renewal and cancellation rules for a paid plan must be shown before purchase and form part of the order. Prices exclude VAT unless expressly stated otherwise. No paid plan, renewal or additional charge starts merely by joining or using the free beta. Any future paid conversion requires separate, deliberate consent.

16. Consumer rights and withdrawal

Nothing in this Agreement excludes statutory rights that cannot lawfully be excluded, including mandatory rights concerning conformity, supply, remedies and updates for consumers. If a consumer purchases paid digital content for immediate download, any loss of a statutory withdrawal right applies only after the consumer has separately given the prior express consent and acknowledgement required by law and has received the legally required confirmation. The free beta itself creates no payment obligation.

17. Warranty disclaimer

DFrame will exercise reasonable care in supplying generally available paid software. Except for express commitments and mandatory statutory rights, DFrame is supplied “as is” and “as available”. DFrame does not warrant that every error will be corrected, that output is complete or suitable for a particular project, or that the product will operate with every configuration. Beta and free evaluation software carries no additional warranty beyond rights that cannot be excluded by law.

18. Liability

The User remains responsible for backups, review and professional use. To the fullest extent permitted by law, DFrame is not liable for indirect or consequential loss, loss of profit, revenue, opportunity, goodwill, anticipated savings or corrupted or lost project data.

For a business User, DFrame’s aggregate contractual and non-contractual liability arising from an event or connected series of events is limited to the amount paid for the affected DFrame licence during the twelve months preceding the event. For a free beta, that aggregate limit is EUR 100. These exclusions and limits do not apply to liability that cannot lawfully be limited, including liability caused by intent or deliberate recklessness of DFrame’s management, or to mandatory consumer remedies. Nothing requires a consumer to waive a mandatory right.

19. Suspension and termination

The licence ends when its term expires or either party validly terminates it. DFrame may suspend or terminate access for material breach, unlawful use, non-payment, compromised credentials, security risk, licence circumvention or use beyond purchased rights. Where reasonably possible, DFrame will give notice and an opportunity to remedy a remediable breach. Immediate action is allowed where necessary to prevent harm or misuse.

On termination, the User must stop using DFrame and remove copies, except where mandatory law permits otherwise. Terms concerning ownership, restrictions, confidentiality, feedback, liability, records, governing law and accrued rights survive. Termination does not affect remedies or payment obligations already accrued.

20. Confidentiality and intellectual property

DFrame and its licensors retain all intellectual-property and proprietary rights in the software, services, design, branding, documentation and library content. Non-public beta material, security information, source material and credentials must be protected using reasonable care and may be disclosed only to authorised persons who need them and are bound by equivalent confidentiality duties. A legal disclosure obligation remains permitted after legally allowed advance notice.

21. Changes to this Agreement

The version accepted at contract formation remains available to the User. DFrame may update these terms prospectively for new versions, renewals or reasonably necessary legal, security or service changes. Material changes require clear notice and, where required, renewed active acceptance. A change does not retroactively remove accrued rights or mandatory remedies.

22. General provisions

The User may not assign this Agreement without DFrame’s prior written consent; DFrame may assign it as part of a business transfer while preserving mandatory rights. Failure to enforce a term is not a waiver. If a term is invalid, it is limited or replaced only to the minimum extent necessary and the remaining terms continue. The Agreement, applicable order, Beta Terms and Privacy Policy form the entire agreement concerning the licensed product, without excluding liability for fraud or statements that cannot lawfully be excluded.

23. Governing law and disputes

Dutch law applies. For business Users, the competent court in the district where DFrame is established has exclusive jurisdiction, unless mandatory law provides otherwise. Consumers retain the protection of mandatory law in their country of habitual residence and may use any competent forum available under applicable consumer law. Parties should first attempt to resolve a dispute in good faith through info@dframe.nl.
