Effective Date: July 29, 2026
These Website Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the website operated by Hoffmann Torchio Architects, PLLC (“HTA,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) at https://htarchgroup.com/ and any successor domain operated by HTA (collectively, the “Website”).
By accessing or using the Website, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Website.
The Website provides general information about HTA, its experience, projects, and professional services. Website content is provided for general informational and promotional purposes only.
Website content does not constitute architectural, engineering, zoning, building-code, legal, financial, construction, or other professional advice. You should not rely upon Website content when making design, permitting, construction, property, investment, safety, or legal decisions.
Codes, regulations, site conditions, agency interpretations, product requirements, and other project considerations vary by jurisdiction and may change over time. Professional advice must be based on the facts, conditions, and requirements of a specific project.
Accessing the Website, submitting a contact form, sending an email, or otherwise communicating with HTA does not create an architect-client relationship, professional-services agreement, fiduciary relationship, or other contractual relationship.
HTA accepts a professional engagement only through a written agreement executed by HTA and the client. Until such an agreement is executed, HTA has no obligation to provide services, maintain confidentiality beyond applicable legal requirements, meet deadlines, reserve availability, or take action concerning any project.
Do not send confidential, privileged, time-sensitive, or proprietary information unless HTA has expressly agreed to receive it.
HTA may accept or decline any inquiry or potential engagement in its discretion. HTA does not guarantee that it will respond to every submission or that electronic communications will be received, reviewed, or answered within a particular period.
Project images, descriptions, approvals, completed work, and testimonials appearing on the Website do not guarantee that similar results can be achieved for another property or project. Outcomes depend on project-specific conditions, client decisions, budgets, consultant coordination, contractor performance, governmental review, and other factors outside HTA’s control.
Unless otherwise stated, the Website and its content—including text, graphics, photographs, renderings, drawings, plans, designs, logos, trade names, page layouts, and other materials—are owned by or licensed to HTA and are protected by applicable copyright, trademark, and other intellectual-property laws.
You may view the Website and print or save limited portions for your personal, noncommercial evaluation of HTA’s services. You may not, without HTA’s prior written permission:
No license or transfer of ownership is granted except for the limited right to access the Website under these Terms.
Certain photographs, designs, drawings, or project materials may be owned by clients, consultants, photographers, contractors, manufacturers, or other third parties and are displayed with permission or attribution where applicable. All rights in those materials remain with their respective owners.
Use of a project image does not necessarily mean that HTA provided every service or was responsible for every element depicted.
You agree not to:
HTA may restrict or terminate access to the Website when it reasonably believes these Terms have been violated.
You represent that information and materials you submit through the Website are accurate to the best of your knowledge and that you have the right to provide them.
You authorize HTA to use submitted information to respond to your inquiry, assess a potential engagement, maintain business records, and conduct related business activities. Submission of information is also governed by our Privacy Policy.
The Website may link to LinkedIn and other third-party websites or services for convenience. HTA does not control, endorse, guarantee, or assume responsibility for third-party content, availability, security, products, services, or privacy practices.
You access third-party websites at your own risk and subject to their applicable terms and policies.
HTA attempts to provide useful and accurate information but does not warrant that Website content is complete, current, accurate, error-free, or suitable for a particular purpose.
HTA may update, suspend, remove, or discontinue all or part of the Website without notice. The Website may occasionally be unavailable because of maintenance, service-provider issues, technical failures, security concerns, or circumstances outside HTA’s control.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE WEBSITE AND ITS CONTENT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. HTA DISCLAIMS ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, AND AVAILABILITY.
Nothing in these Terms excludes a warranty or right that cannot lawfully be excluded.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, HTA AND ITS MEMBERS, EMPLOYEES, CONSULTANTS, REPRESENTATIVES, AND SERVICE PROVIDERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THE WEBSITE OR YOUR RELIANCE ON ITS CONTENT.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, HTA’S TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING SOLELY FROM YOUR USE OF THE WEBSITE WILL NOT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100).
These limitations do not apply where liability cannot legally be limited or excluded.
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless HTA and its members, employees, representatives, consultants, and service providers from claims, damages, liabilities, losses, and reasonable costs arising from your unlawful use of the Website, your violation of these Terms, or your infringement of another party’s rights.
Your use of the Website is also subject to HTA’s Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.
Any legal action arising solely from the Website or these Terms must be brought in a state or federal court of competent jurisdiction located in the State of New York. You consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts.
This provision does not replace or modify the dispute-resolution terms of any separate written professional-services agreement with HTA.
If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the greatest extent legally permissible, and the remaining provisions will remain in effect.
HTA’s failure to enforce any provision of these Terms does not waive its right to enforce that or any other provision later.
These Terms and the Privacy Policy constitute the entire agreement between you and HTA regarding your use of the Website. They do not supersede any separately executed professional-services agreement.
HTA may revise these Terms periodically. Updated Terms will be posted on the Website with a revised effective date. Your continued use of the Website after revised Terms are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
