TERMS OF SERVICE

Last Updated: June 9, 2026

Effective: June 9, 2026

Hello, welcome to HeyVerse! This Terms of Service ("Terms") governs your access to or use of our Service. Please ensure to read the Terms and any Additional Terms in full carefully. Your access to or use of our Service constitutes your agreement to be bound by the Terms. If you do not agree to the Terms, you may not access or use our Service.

1. Description of the Service.

1.1. Our Service. HK HeyGears Technology Limited and its affiliates (collectively, "HeyGears", "we", "us", or "our") operates the HeyVerse platform ("HeyVerse"), a community-driven ecosystem hosting and distributing digital design resources, including 3D printable models, 2D planar works, and 2.5D relief models, for creative enthusiasts. HeyVerse enables users to upload, store, share, download, comment on, and interact with print files (such as .gcode), 3D printable model files (such as .stl, .3mf, .obj, and .amf), related images (such as .jpg, .png, .gif, and .tiff), and associated metadata (collectively, the "Designs"). The services we provide (collectively, the "Service") include the HeyVerse website, any associated mobile applications, embeddable widgets or tools, application programming interfaces, and any other software, content, features, functionalities, products, channels, data feeds, and services made available by HeyGears through or in connection with HeyVerse, whether accessible online or offline via any current or future device. The Service is designed to connect exclusively with 3D printers, accessories, attachments, materials, and related peripherals manufactured, distributed, or sold by or under the HeyGears brand (collectively, the "HeyGears Products") to facilitate the creation of physical items through additive manufacturing using Designs downloaded from HeyVerse (each, a "Printed Object").

1.2. Viewers. By accessing and/or using the Service without being logged into a HeyVerse account, you are considered a "Viewer". As a Viewer, you may browse and view content available on the Service, but you cannot upload, download Design, import Designs from HeyGears BlueprintGo, post comments, or access other features reserved for registered account holders.

1.3. Users. If you wish to upload Models, post comments, participate in the Rewards Program, or access additional features of the Service, you must first create a HeyVerse account and have your email address validated, or login in through HeyGears BlueprintGo or any third-party platform that HeyVerse makes available as a login method, at which point you will become a "User." A "HeyVerse Account" means the personal storage space on the Service dedicated to a User, which can be created by signing up via the HeyVerse website or associated mobile applications.

1.4. Account Information and Validation. Information provided by you to create your HeyVerse Account must be accurate and complete. In order for HeyGears to verify that the email address you provided is valid, you will receive an email from HeyGears asking you to validate your email address. Pending validation of your email address, access to some of the Service's features may be restricted. The creation of your HeyVerse Account may be blocked if the email address you provide originates from a temporary, disposable, or anonymous email service. This measure is intended to protect the HeyVerse community, in particular against the upload of prohibited content.

1.5. Account Responsibility. By creating a HeyVerse Account, you agree that you are solely responsible for all activities that occur under your HeyVerse Account. Your user ID and password are your sole responsibility, and it is your obligation to keep them confidential. You agree to take reasonable steps to prevent unauthorized access to your account. You must immediately notify HeyGears at info@heygears.com of any unauthorized use of your user ID, password, or any other breach of your HeyVerse Account security. HeyGears is not liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this section.

1.6. Creators and Rewards Program. HeyGears may offer promotional or recognition programs ("Rewards Program") as described in Section 5. Users who participate in such a program may be referred to as "Creators". Creators may earn benefits such as points, credits, discounts, or other incentives applicable toward the purchase of HeyGears Products or other services offered by HeyGears (collectively, Reward Points) as set forth in the program-specific rules. Participation in any program is voluntary, and do not create any employment, agency, or partnership relationship between you and HeyGears.

1.7. Your Content. Users and Creators may upload Designs, provide additional information with each Designs (such as a title, description, tags, and category), post comments and reactions, and otherwise contribute material to the Service. Any and all elements uploaded, posted, saved, or otherwise contributed through your HeyVerse Account to the Service are deemed to be "Your Content". You are solely responsible for Your Content. You agree that Your Content will comply with the Terms and applicable law.

1.8. Visitors. Any individual or entity accessing the Service may be referred to hereafter as a "Visitor", regardless of their status (Viewer, User, or Creator). All Visitors must comply with the Terms.

1.9. Service Changes and Availability. We are always working to improve HeyVerse. We may add or remove features, products, or functionalities at any time. We will endeavor to notify you of material changes in advance, but this may not always be feasible. We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue the Service, in whole or in part, at any time, with or without notice. Any future release, update, or addition to the Service will be subject to the Terms, as updated from time to time. HeyGears shall not be liable to you or any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuation of the Service.

2. ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS

2.1. Binding Agreement. Regardless of your status as a Viewer, User, or Creator, the Terms governs the relationship between you and the applicable HeyGears Affiliate. You should not use the Service if you do not accept or cannot comply with any of the Terms. By accessing or using HeyVerse, you signify your express and unconditional agreement to the Terms. 

2.2. Modification of Terms. HeyGears may modify the Terms from time to time. We will provide notice of any material changes via HeyVerse before the new terms take effect. If you do not agree to the modified Terms or cannot comply with them, you must immediately cease access to and use of the Services. By continuing to access or use the Service after the effective date, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by the modified Terms.

2.3. Additional Terms. Because we offer a variety of Service, you may be asked to agree to additional terms, policies, guidelines, or rules before using a specific product or service offered by HeyGears (collectively, "Additional Terms"). All Additional Terms are incorporated by this reference into, and made a part of, the Terms, and to the extent any Additional Terms conflict with the Terms, the Additional Terms govern with respect to your use of the corresponding Services.

2.4. Age and Capacity. If you are an individual (as opposed to a legal entity), you represent to HeyGears that you are either: (i) at least 18 years old; or (ii) at least 13 years old AND either (a) an emancipated minor, (b) the law of your country allows you to enter into the terms, conditions, obligations, affirmations, representations, and warranties set forth in the Terms, or (c) you have obtained your parent's or guardian's consent. In any case, the Service is not intended for children under 13, and you shall not use the Service if you are under 13 years old. You shall not use the Service if (a) you are not of legal age to form a binding contract with HeyGears, or (b) you are legally prohibited from receiving or using the Service under the laws of the country in which you reside or from which you access or use the Service.

2.5. Entity Users: Authority. If you are not an individual (i.e., a corporation or other legal entity), you represent to HeyGears that you have all necessary corporate or equivalent authority and power to agree to the Terms, which shall be binding on the corporation, partnership, association, or other entity in whose name you are using or accessing the Service.

2.6. Automated Access Prohibited. Access to the Service is limited to individuals, corporations, or other legal entities. Access by means of automated processes (e.g., robots, botnets, scrapers, etc.) endangers the proper functioning of the Service, limits legitimate users' access to its features, causes financial prejudice, and constitutes a security threat. Access by means of automated processes is expressly prohibited without the prior written approval of HeyGears. HeyGears may use technical means to detect and block any unauthorized access to the Service. You explicitly acknowledge and agree that when you access the Service or any part thereof, the use of such technologies—including when they involve accessing your device to read or write information (for example, to determine whether an attempt to access the Service is triggered by a human or by an automated process)—is necessary for the detection and prevention of unauthorized access and for the provision of the Service to you.

To the extent permitted by law, HeyGears will make reasonable efforts to notify you of such disclosure unless prohibited by the terms of the legal request or where providing notice would be impractical or would compromise an ongoing investigation.

9. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY COMPLAINTS AND TAKEDOWN POLICY

9.1. No General Monitoring Obligation. In our capacity as a internet hosting service provider, HeyGears is under no legal obligation to monitor content uploaded to HeyVerse, nor obligated to actively seek facts or circumstances indicating illegal content but shall expeditiously remove or disable access from HeyVerse to any prohibited or infringing content once having been notified of its existence. HeyGears does not, and has no legal obligation to, review or inspect content for possible illegality or infringement prior to their being viewable on HeyVerse.

9.2. Infringement Notices. Notifications of claimed infringement of copyright, trademark, patent, or other intellectual property rights should be submitted to HeyGears at info@heygears.com.

9.3. Verification. HeyGears may request additional information from the complaining party before taking action on any notice. HeyGears has no obligation to act upon, any notice that is incomplete or insufficient to permit HeyGears to locate or assess the allegedly infringing material. HeyGears may also decline to process notices submitted by a party who repeatedly submits incomplete or insufficient notices regarding the same content.

9.4. Counter-Notification. If your Design or other User Content is removed due to mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter-notification to info@heygears.com including: (a) your signature; (b) identification of the removed material and its prior location (including URL); (c) a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed by mistake; and (d) your name, address, telephone number, and consent to jurisdiction of the courts where you reside (or where the applicable HeyGears Affiliate is registered).

9.5. Restoration. Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification, HeyGears will notify the original complaining party and may restore the removed material within reasonable time unless the complaining party files a court action to restrain the restoration or reupload the content in question.

9.6. Multiple Notices. HeyGears maintains a policy of taking appropriate action, including account termination, where a user has been the subject of multiple valid infringement notices. Where required by applicable law, HeyGears may suspend services to users who frequently provide manifestly illegal content after issuing a prior warning.

9.7. Misrepresentations. Please note that under applicable law, any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity is infringing, or that material or activity was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, may be subject to liability for damages, including costs and attorneys' fees. HeyGears reserves the right to seek damages and other remedies against any person who submits a fraudulent or bad-faith infringement notice or counter-notification.

9.8. Disclosure of Contact Information. To facilitate direct resolution of the dispute, HeyGears may disclose the contact information in your notice or counter-notification to the other party: the uploader of the allegedly infringing material for a notice, or the original complaining party for a counter-notification. By submitting a notice or counter-notification, you consent to this disclosure.
