LEGAL
TERMS OF USE
LAST UPDATED: JULY 30, 2026
INTRODUCTION
These Terms of Use govern your access to and use of marcello.homes and any pages, content, resources, or features made available through the website.
The website is operated by Marcello Homes LLC (“Marcello Homes,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By accessing or using the website, you agree to these Terms of Use. Our Privacy Policy also applies to information collected through the website.
These Terms apply only to the website and related online materials. They do not replace or modify any separately signed design, preconstruction, construction, consulting, confidentiality, or other agreement with Marcello Homes.
01
ELIGIBILITY
The website may be viewed by the public. However, you must be at least 18 years old and legally capable of entering into an agreement to submit a project inquiry, request services, or otherwise use the website in a manner that creates legal obligations.
By submitting information through the website, you represent that the information is accurate to the best of your knowledge and that you have the authority to provide it.
02
GENERAL INFORMATION ONLY
The website is provided for general informational and planning purposes.
Project descriptions, pricing references, investment ranges, timelines, square footage, features, materials, photographs, renderings, construction details, and completed-project examples may reflect a particular project, time, location, scope, client decision, or market condition. They should not be treated as a proposal, estimate, quotation, warranty, guarantee, promise, or representation about a different project.
Every property and project is different. Actual feasibility, design, cost, schedule, scope, performance, availability, and results depend on many factors that can be evaluated only through a project-specific process and, when appropriate, a written agreement.
03
NO BUILDER-CLIENT RELATIONSHIP
Visiting the website, downloading a resource, sending an email, submitting the Start a Conversation form, or participating in an initial discussion does not create a builder-client, design, consulting, fiduciary, joint-venture, partnership, or other professional relationship with Marcello Homes.
No project relationship begins unless and until the appropriate written agreement has been signed by Marcello Homes and the applicable client or property owner.
Marcello Homes is not required to accept, pursue, price, or respond to every inquiry.
04
OWNERSHIP OF WEBSITE CONTENT
The website and its original content, including copy, branding, logos, graphics, layouts, photographs, videos, project descriptions, editorial materials, and other creative elements, are owned by Marcello Homes or used with permission from the applicable owner.
Some photographs, drawings, renderings, design work, or other materials may belong to architects, designers, photographers, trade partners, consultants, clients, or other third parties. Their appearance on the website does not transfer ownership or grant permission for further use.
Except for the limited permissions stated in these Terms, no website content may be copied, reproduced, republished, modified, distributed, sold, licensed, displayed, uploaded, reposted, or used to create derivative or competing materials without prior written permission from Marcello Homes and, where applicable, the actual rights holder.
Marcello Homes names, logos, marks, and brand elements may not be used in a manner that suggests sponsorship, endorsement, affiliation, or approval without written permission.
05
LIMITED QUOTATIONS AND SHARING LINKS
You may share a link to a public page on the Marcello Homes website.
You may also quote a brief, reasonable portion of website copy when the quotation:
- Is accurate and not misleading
- Clearly credits Marcello Homes
- Includes a link to the relevant Marcello Homes page
- Does not reproduce a substantial portion of the page or resource
- Is not used to create competing commercial, marketing, training, or design materials
- Does not suggest that Marcello Homes endorses the person or organization using the quotation
Giving credit and linking to Marcello Homes does not authorize broader copying or commercial use.
06
THE MODERN HOME PREMIUM AND OTHER DOWNLOADABLE RESOURCES
The Modern Home Premium and any other downloadable Marcello Homes resource are provided for the recipient’s personal planning and educational use.
Unless Marcello Homes gives written permission, a resource may not be distributed, forwarded, resold, republished, edited, rebranded, uploaded, reposted, incorporated into another company’s materials, used as a template for competing content, or made available through another website, shared drive, course, membership, or document library.
A visitor may share the public landing-page link so another person can request the resource directly. The downloadable file itself should not be redistributed.
07
ARCHITECTURAL IMAGES, DRAWINGS, AND DESIGN CONCEPTS
Photographs, renderings, drawings, details, and architectural concepts displayed on the website are provided to illustrate the Marcello Homes approach and selected work.
You may not use those materials to copy, reproduce, trace, reverse-engineer, recreate, or direct another architect, designer, contractor, builder, AI system, or other person to reproduce a home, elevation, detail, layout, visual identity, or design concept shown on the website.
The website is not a license to use any architectural drawing, rendering, floor plan, photograph, construction detail, or design concept. Any permitted use must be confirmed in writing by the appropriate rights holder.
08
AUTOMATED ACCESS, SCRAPING, AND AI USE
Ordinary search-engine indexing and reasonable personal use of tools that help a visitor find, summarize, or evaluate publicly available Marcello Homes information are permitted.
Without prior written permission, you may not use automated tools to:
- Scrape or download the website or portfolio in bulk
- Circumvent access, security, rate, or technical controls
- Build a database or archive of Marcello Homes content
- Train, fine-tune, evaluate, or operate an AI system intended to imitate Marcello Homes’ brand voice, website, marketing, designs, or proprietary materials
- Generate competing builder, design, marketing, editorial, or commercial materials from Marcello Homes content
- Reproduce or republish website content at scale
This section is intended to restrict extraction, imitation, and competing commercial use, not ordinary search visibility or a visitor’s reasonable use of an AI assistant to research Marcello Homes.
09
MATERIALS YOU PROVIDE
You retain ownership of plans, surveys, photographs, inspiration images, drawings, messages, and other materials you provide to Marcello Homes.
By providing materials, you represent that you own them or otherwise have the right to share them. You give Marcello Homes and its authorized team members, consultants, and project partners a limited permission to review, copy, store, discuss, and use those materials as reasonably necessary to evaluate, communicate about, plan, price, coordinate, or perform the potential or active project.
That limited permission does not authorize Marcello Homes to publish your private project materials for marketing or unrelated purposes unless you provide separate permission or a signed agreement allows that use.
10
NONCONFIDENTIAL SUBMISSIONS
Unless Marcello Homes has signed a separate confidentiality or nondisclosure agreement, information and materials sent through a general inquiry, email, social-media message, or initial conversation should not be treated as legally confidential.
Please do not send trade secrets, passwords, Social Security numbers, financial-account information, health information, government identification numbers, or other highly sensitive information through the website or a general inquiry.
This section does not eliminate privacy obligations described in the Privacy Policy or confidentiality obligations contained in a separately signed agreement.
11
ACCEPTABLE USE
You may use the website only for lawful purposes.
You may not:
- Use the website fraudulently or unlawfully
- Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the website, hosting, accounts, forms, systems, or data
- Introduce malware, viruses, harmful code, automated attacks, or disruptive technology
- Interfere with website operation, security, performance, or another visitor’s use
- Impersonate another person or business
- Misrepresent an affiliation with Marcello Homes
- Submit information you know is false, misleading, infringing, or unauthorized
- Use the website or its content to violate another person’s privacy, intellectual-property, contractual, or other rights
- Use Marcello Homes content in a deceptive, defamatory, or misleading manner
12
THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES, EMBEDDED CONTENT, AND SOCIAL MEDIA
The website may link to or display content from architects, designers, photographers, vendors, consultants, video platforms, social-media platforms, scheduling tools, or other third parties.
Those links and features are provided for convenience or context. Marcello Homes does not control and is not responsible for a third party’s website, account, content, availability, security, accuracy, products, services, privacy practices, or terms.
A link, embed, mention, or social-media connection does not necessarily mean that Marcello Homes endorses every statement, product, service, or activity of that third party.
13
MARCELLO HOMES’ CONTROL OF THE WEBSITE
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Marcello Homes may change, correct, update, remove, suspend, restrict, redesign, or discontinue any website page, feature, resource, link, content, or access method at any time, with or without notice.
Marcello Homes may block or restrict access when it reasonably believes a visitor has violated these Terms, misused company content, threatened website security, interfered with website operation, or acted unlawfully.
Marcello Homes may update these Terms and the Privacy Policy as the website, services, technology, and business practices change.
14
WEBSITE AVAILABILITY AND DISCLAIMERS
The website and its content are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis for general informational purposes.
Marcello Homes does not guarantee that the website will always be available, uninterrupted, secure, error-free, complete, accurate in every respect, or continuously current. Website information may contain typographical errors, outdated references, incomplete descriptions, or technical issues.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Marcello Homes disclaims warranties relating solely to the website that are not expressly stated in a separately signed agreement.
Nothing in these Terms limits a responsibility, warranty, or obligation that Marcello Homes expressly accepts in a signed agreement or that cannot legally be limited.
15
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Marcello Homes and its owners, employees, contractors, consultants, and service providers will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or similar losses arising from or relating to the website, its unavailability, third-party links, or reliance on general website information.
This limitation does not apply where liability cannot legally be limited, and it does not replace the liability terms of any separately signed agreement.
16
RESPONSIBILITY FOR MISUSE
You are responsible for your own unlawful use of the website, violation of these Terms, infringement of another person’s rights, and submission of materials you had no right to provide.
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to be responsible for reasonable claims, losses, or expenses directly caused by that conduct. This provision is not intended to make a visitor responsible for Marcello Homes’ own wrongdoing.
17
GOVERNING LAW AND COURTS
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except where another law must apply.
Any dispute arising from or relating specifically to the website or these Terms must be brought in an appropriate state or federal court serving Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, unless applicable law requires a different location.
These Terms do not require binding arbitration.
18
CHANGES TO THESE TERMS
Marcello Homes may revise these Terms from time to time. The current version will be posted on this page with an updated “Last Updated” date.
Changes become effective when posted unless a later effective date is stated. Continued use of the website after the revised Terms are posted means the revised Terms apply to future use, subject to applicable law.
19
GENERAL PROVISIONS
If a section of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining sections will continue to apply to the fullest extent permitted by law.
A failure by Marcello Homes to enforce a provision immediately does not waive the right to enforce it later.
Section headings are provided for convenience and do not change the meaning of these Terms.
Marcello Homes may transfer its rights and obligations under these Terms as part of a merger, reorganization, financing, sale, or transfer of the business or its assets. A visitor may not transfer rights under these Terms without written permission.
