Terrane, Inc. | Effective date: October 6, 2026

These Website Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of terrane.net, blog.terrane.net, and any other Terrane webpage that links to these Terms (collectively, the “Site”). The Site is operated by Terrane, Inc. (“Terrane,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). Please read these Terms carefully before you start to use the Site. By accessing or using the Site, you agree to be bound and abide by these Terms and our Privacy Policy, found at [Privacy Policy Link], which is incorporated herein by reference. If you do not agree to these Terms or the Privacy Policy, do not use or access the Site.

1. Website Terms Only; Separate Service Agreement

These Terms apply only to your use of the Site. These Terms do not govern land surveying, civil engineering, construction staking, consulting, or other professional services performed by Terrane. Any such services are governed by a separate written proposal, agreement, and Terrane’s General Terms & Conditions for Service (collectively, a “Service Agreement”). If these Terms conflict with a Service Agreement, the Service Agreement shall control with respect to the professional services.

2. Informational Content; No Professional Advice

Site content, including articles, guides, examples, project descriptions, timelines, and regulatory or permitting information, is provided for general informational purposes only. It is not a professional survey, a site-specific engineering analysis, legal advice, regulatory advice, or a substitute for services performed under a signed Service Agreement.

Site conditions, records, laws, codes, agency practices, schedules, and permitting requirements can change and vary by property and jurisdiction. Do not use Site content to make design, construction, boundary, title, permitting, investment, or legal decisions without obtaining appropriate project-specific advice from qualified professionals.

3. Requests, Proposals, and Communications

Submitting a contact form, request for proposal, project location, or other information through the Site does not create a client relationship, reserve field capacity, establish a delivery date, or obligate Terrane to accept a project. Any timeline, price, scope, or availability discussed before Terrane and you sign a Service Agreement is preliminary unless Terrane expressly states otherwise in writing.

You represent that any information you submit is accurate and that you are authorized to provide it. Do not submit Social Security numbers, payment-card information, medical information, account passwords, trade secrets, or other sensitive information through a non-secure general Site form.

4. Privacy

Our Privacy Policy describes how we process personal information collected through the Site. By using the Website, you consent to all actions taken by us with respect to your information in compliance with the Privacy Policy.

5. Acceptable Use

You may use the Site only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. You agree not to:

  • Violate applicable law or the rights of another person or entity.

  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Site, accounts, data, systems, or networks.

  • Introduce malware, malicious code, or other harmful material.

  • Interfere with, disrupt, overload, or test the vulnerability of the Site or its infrastructure without authorization.

  • Use automated means to scrape, extract, copy, or monitor Site content in a manner that burdens the Site, circumvents controls, or violates applicable law.

  • Impersonate another person, misrepresent your affiliation, or submit false or misleading information.

  • Use Site content to develop or train a competing commercial product or service without our written permission.

6. Intellectual Property

The Site and its content, design, text, articles, graphics, photographs, videos, logos, trademarks, software, and other materials are owned by Terrane or its licensors, and are protected by United States and international copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, and other intellectual property or proprietary rights laws. Except as permitted by law or in writing by Terrane, you may not copy, reproduce, republish, distribute, modify, create derivative works from, sell, license, or commercially exploit any content contained on the Site.

In addition, “Terrane, Inc.”, our logos, and other names, logos, taglines, and indicia used in connection with the Site are trademarks and service marks of Terrane or Terrane’s licensors. Nothing in these Terms grant you a right or license to use any such trademarks or service marks.

If you voluntarily provide ideas or feedback about the Site, you grant Terrane a non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free right to use and incorporate that feedback without restriction or compensation. This section does not apply to project materials or deliverables governed by a Service Agreement.

7. Limited License

Subject to your full and continuing compliance with these Terms, we grant you a personal, limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license to access and use the Site, including a license to download and print publicly available pages on the Site solely for your educational and business evaluation purposes. Unless explicitly stated in writing by us, nothing in these Terms shall be construed as conferring any right or license to any patent, copyright, trademark or other proprietary or intellectual property rights in or related to the Site or any third party, whether by estoppel, implication or otherwise. We may suspend or terminate this License at any time, with or without notice. This License terminates automatically and without notice upon any breach of these Terms; provided, that upon any termination of this License, you must immediately cease all use of the Site.

8. Third-Party Sites and Services

The Site may link to or integrate with third-party sites, maps, videos, forms, social networks, or other services. Terrane does not control and is not responsible for the content, availability, security, or practices of any third party or its content. A link or integration does not imply our endorsement of any third party or its content. Your use of a third-party service is governed by that provider’s terms and policies. If you decide to access any of the third-party websites linked to this Site, you do so entirely at your own risk and subject to the terms and conditions of use for such websites.

9. Disclaimer of Warranties

YOUR USE OF THE SITE, ITS CONTENT, AND ANY SERVICES OR ITEMS OBTAINED THROUGH THE SITE IS AT YOUR OWN RISK. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SITE, ITS CONTENT, AND ANY SERVICES OR ITEMS OBTAINED THROUGH THE SITE ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, TERRANE DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, CURRENCY, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. TERRANE DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SITE, ITS CONTENT, AND ANY SERVICES OR ITEMS OBTAINED THROUGH THE SITE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS.

10. Limitation of Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, TERRANE AND ITS DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, GOODWILL, OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SITE OR ITS CONTENT, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, TERRANE’S TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SITE OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (US $100). These limitations do not apply to liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, and they do not govern claims arising under a Service Agreement.

11. Indemnification

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Terrane and its directors, officers, employees, contractors, and agents from any and all claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or relating to your unlawful use of the Site, your material violation of these Terms, or any content you submit in violation of another person’s rights. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we reserve the right, at your expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter for which you are required to indemnify us, and you agree to cooperate, at your expense, with our defense of such claims. We will use reasonable efforts to notify you of any such claim, action, or proceeding which is subject to this indemnification upon becoming aware of it.

12. Suspension and Termination

Terrane may suspend or terminate your access to the Site, or remove or modify Site content, at any time when reasonably necessary to protect the Site, Terrane, users, or others, or to address your violation of these Terms. Upon termination, the licenses granted to you under these Terms will immediately terminate and you must cease all access to and use of the Site. Any Section or provision of these Terms that by their nature should survive, will survive any termination of these Terms.

13. Governing Law and Venue

All matters, disputes, or claims arising from or relating to the Site or these Terms shall be governed by the laws of the State of Washington, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Site must be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in King County, Washington, and each party consents to personal jurisdiction and venue there.

14. Class Action Waiver

YOU AND WE UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY DISPUTE THAT IN ANY WAY RELATES TO OR ARISES OUT OF THESE TERMS OR FROM YOUR USE OR ACCESS TO THE SITE. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS PARAGRAPH MAY BE FILED TO SHOW A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BEFORE A JUDGE.

15. Limitation on Time to File Claims

ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OF USE OR THE SITE MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES; OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.

16. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time in our sole discretion. The effective date at the top of these Terms indicates when the current version took effect. All changes are effective immediately when we post them, and apply to all access to and use of the Site thereafter. Your continued use of the Site after the effective date of any updated Terms constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms, to the extent permitted by law.

17. Miscellaneous

If a provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable, it will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law and the remaining provisions will remain in effect. Terrane’s failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of its right to do so later. You may not assign these Terms without Terrane’s written consent; Terrane may assign them in connection with a reorganization, merger, sale, or transfer of the Site or its business. These Terms and the documents expressly incorporated by reference are the entire agreement concerning your use of the Site.

Section 1.0 – Relationship of the Parties

These Terms and Conditions, the Proposal and any attachments referenced in the Proposal (collectively, the “Agreement”) is made between the recipient of this Agreement (“Client”) and Terrane, Inc., a Washington corporation (“Service Provider”). The relationship between the parties shall be limited to the obligations of this Agreement. This is an exclusive relationship, solely for the benefit of Client, and no third party beneficiaries are intended by this Agreement. By signing the Proposal, Client agrees to receive updates and notifications through email, text messages, and phone calls.

Section 2.0 – Scope of Work

Service Provider shall perform those services (the “Services”), which Services include the furnishing of any deliverables (the “Deliverables”) specified in Service Provider’s Proposal, which is attached to these Terms and Conditions.

Section 3.0 – Payment

Client shall pay Service Provider in accordance with the Proposal. Invoices will be submitted once a month based on work performed during the prior month. Payment will be due upon receipt. Interest will be added to accounts 30 days in arrears. All expenses incurred by Service Provider for liening or collecting any delinquent amount including, without limitation, attorney and filing fees, shall be paid to Service Provider by Client.

Section 4.0 – Insurance

Service Provider will maintain any insurance coverage required by applicable law as well as adequate insurance to cover any actions, errors or omissions related to Service Provider’s performance of the Services and furnishing of the Deliverables and Service Provider’s indemnification obligations hereunder. Service Provider will furnish to Client, upon Client’s request, a certificate verifying such coverage is in full force and effect.

Section 5.0 – Indemnification

To the furthest extent permitted by applicable law, each party will defend, indemnify and hold harmless the other party, its affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, contractors, Subcontractors, agents, shareholders, successors, assigns, and Service Provider Personnel (each an “Indemnitee”, collectively the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all losses, demands, claims, damages, expenses, judgments or liabilities, including costs, attorneys’ fees, taxes, fines, penalties, interest or other awards (collectively, “Losses”), that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against an Indemnitee, arising out of or related to (i) such party’s negligence or knowing violation of applicable law; or (ii) such party’s intentionally wrongful acts or omissions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, under no circumstance shall Service Provider be responsible for any incidental, special, consequential, indirect, or punitive damages suffered or alleged by Client or any Client Indemnitee.

Section 6.0 – Standard of Care

Service Provider’s services shall be performed in accordance with the standard of care of its profession, which means generally accepted surveying practices in the same or similar localities, related to the nature of the work accomplished, at the time the services are performed. Subject to this standard of care, Service Provider makes no express or implied warranties regarding its services. At Client’s reasonable request, Service Provider will promptly redo or otherwise correct defects of any Services or Deliverables not conforming to the foregoing warranty. This remedy is exclusive and shall be the sole remedy that Client shall have against Service Provider for any defective Services provided by Service Provider.

Section 7.0 – Right of Entry

Client has responsibility for obtaining a right of entry to the property for Service Provider. The right of entry shall allow Service Provider, its agents, subcontractors, and employees to enter the property from time to time, as necessary, to perform all acts, studies, and research pursuant to the agreed services.

Section 8.0 – Use of Documents; Instruments of Service

Drawings, reports, surveys, other documents, intellectual property and information, including those in electronic form (collectively, “Instruments”), prepared by Service Provider are instruments of service for use solely with respect to the performance of any Proposal. Service Provider shall retain all ownership rights, including without limitation, all common law, statutory and other reserved rights such as copyrights in the Instruments. Service Provider grants Client a non-exclusive limited license to reproduce the Instruments solely for the purposes of constructing, using and maintaining an applicable project pursuant to a specific SOW. Any other use of the Instruments that is not authorized by Service Provider shall be a violation of the limited license herein, at Client’s sole risk without liability to Service Provider.

Section 9.0 – Construction Staking

Once Service Provider completes its construction staking, it shall not be responsible for the security of the job site and for any improper moving or relocation of the stakes by third parties after Service Provider leaves the site. To minimize this risk, Service Provider recommends that any contractor commence construction as soon as possible after Service Provider completes the staking. In no event should a contractor rely on the location of construction staking 30 days after Service Provider completes the staking. Client should instruct any contractor to contact Service Provider to confirm the location of construction staking if 30 days has elapsed after Service Provider completes the staking or if reasonable suspicion exists that the stakes have been moved.

Section 10.0 – Limitation of Liability

Client expressly agrees that to the fullest extent permitted by law, Service Provider’s maximum liability to Client for claims arising from Service Provider’s acts, errors, or omissions in the performance of its work, shall be the amount of Service Provider’s fee for professional services or $25,000, whichever is less. As used in this paragraph, the term “liability” means liability of any kind, whether in contract (including breach of warranty), in tort (including negligence), in strict liability, or otherwise, for any and all injuries, claims, losses, expenses, damages whatsoever arising out of or in any way related to Service Provider’s services or the services of Service Provider’s subcontractors, officers, directors, and employees from any cause(s). Neither party shay be liable for any claims of loss of profits or any other indirect, incidental, or consequential damages of any nature whatsoever.

Section 11.0 – Independent Contractor; Subcontractor Obligations.

Service Provider, including without limitation, the employees and Subcontractors of Service Provider (“Service Provider Personnel”), are independent contractors. Service Provider Personnel are not employees of Client. Service Provider may freely assign its rights, duties or obligations to its independent contractors and subcontractors (each a “Subcontractor”) subject to the limitation set forth in this Agreement. Service Provider shall enforce all subcontracts at its sole cost and expense. In the event of the termination or expiration of this Agreement, all subcontract rights with respect to the Services will terminate effective as of the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

Section 12.0 – Severability and Survival

All sections of this Agreement that may reasonably be interpreted or construed to survive termination of this Agreement, will survive termination. If any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (i) such provision will be deemed amended to achieve as nearly as possible the same economic effect as the original provision, and (ii) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement will not be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 13.0 – Governing Law; Statute of Limitations.

This Agreement, the terms and conditions herein, and all disputes arising out of this Agreement will be governed by the internal laws of the State of Washington without regard to its choice of laws or conflict of laws. Venue and jurisdiction of any dispute involving this Agreement or any dispute arising out of this Agreement hereunder will exist exclusively in the state and federal courts located in King County Washington. Each Party hereby knowingly and irrevocably waives any right to raise forum non conveniens argument that King County, Washington is not the proper venue. All legal actions by either party against the other shall be barred after one year has passed from the time the claimant knew or should have known of its claim, and under no circumstances shall be initiated after two years from the date by which Service Provider completes its services.

Section 14.0 – Precedence

These Terms and Conditions shall take precedence over any inconsistent or contradictory provisions contained in any proposal, contract, purchase order, requisition, notice to proceed, or like document regarding Service Provider’s services. Any exhibits or attachments ascribed hereto are specifically made a part of this Agreement and incorporated herein by reference. In the event of conflict between terms of this Agreement and the exhibits or attachments made part of this Agreement, the Agreement will govern.
