Website Terms
Information first. Project commitments in writing.
These terms apply to the use of Home Cinema Lighting as an independent informational and project-enquiry resource.
Last updated 12 September 20261. Informational purpose
The website provides general educational, project-orientation and specification-led information about lighting for private cinemas and related spaces. It is not a complete design, quotation, offer for sale or instruction to undertake construction or electrical work.
2. Enquiries do not create an appointment or contract
Sending an enquiry does not create an appointment, accepted quotation, professional engagement or obligation for either party. Any project-specific scope, fees, deliverables, programme, responsibilities and commercial terms must be agreed separately in writing.
3. Preliminary lighting guidance
Lighting concepts, load calculations, dimming compatibility and control recommendations described on this site are preliminary. Final electrical design, circuit protection, cable and driver selection, emergency-lighting requirements, compliance and certification must be confirmed by appropriately qualified professionals for the specific project.
4. Product and system verification
Product specifications, finishes, dimensions, performance, engraving, regional availability and manufacturer requirements can change. Lamp, LED source, driver, dimmer, interface and control-system compatibility must be verified as a complete chain before purchase or installation. Manufacturer documentation and written project specifications take precedence over general website guidance.
5. Drawings, images and examples
Conceptual and manufacturer images illustrate design principles or identify products; they are not final construction, electrical or installation documentation. Screen colours, apparent brightness and material finishes vary. Appropriate site assessment, physical samples, mock-ups and professional confirmation should be obtained before implementation.
6. Independent brand positioning
Manufacturer and product references are used for editorial identification, comparison and specification discussion. They do not necessarily imply dealership, agency, certification, sponsorship or manufacturer representation. The site maintains an independent, project-led position and recommends that regional availability and approved supply routes are confirmed before commitment.
7. Home Cinema Store
Where appropriate, relevant products or professional services may be purchased through HomeCinemaStore.co.za. That website is the separate commercial destination for transactions. Its prices, checkout, payment, booking, cancellation, privacy and other transaction terms apply to purchases made there.
8. Intellectual property
Third-party trademarks, product names, manufacturer images and linked materials remain the property of their respective owners. Original site design, text, graphics and project materials may not be copied or commercially reused without permission, except where applicable law permits.
9. External links
Links to manufacturers and other external resources are provided for context. External websites are controlled by their respective operators and are governed by their own terms, privacy practices and availability. A link does not guarantee the accuracy or continued availability of external content.
10. Reasonable care and applicable law
Reasonable care is taken when preparing the site, but general information may become incomplete or outdated. Nothing in these terms excludes responsibility or consumer rights that cannot lawfully be excluded. These website terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa.
11. Contact and updates
Questions about the site or a cinema-lighting project may be sent to lighting@homecinemalighting.co.za. These terms may be updated when the site, services or applicable requirements change; the current version and update date will appear here.
