How Manufactur3D publishes: what our content is and isn't, how we label sponsored articles and reviews, and how to raise a correction or rights claim.

Manufactur3D Magazine (the "Publication", "we", "us" or "our") is published by Aayam 360 Media, a proprietorship, India. This disclaimer applies to manufactur3dmag.com, its subdomains, newsletters, digital editions, downloadable reports, social media channels and video content (together, the "Website").

By using the Website you accept this disclaimer. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy. If you do not accept it, please do not use the Website.


1. General information only

The Website is a trade publication. Everything we publish - news, analysis, interviews, case studies, reviews, market data, tutorials and opinion - is provided for general information purposes only.

We take reasonable care in preparing our content, but we do not warrant that it is accurate, complete, current or free from error. Information in additive manufacturing dates quickly: specifications change, products are withdrawn, companies are acquired, prices move. We are under no obligation to update any article after publication.

2. Not professional, technical or safety advice

Nothing on the Website is professional advice, and you should not act on it without independent verification.

Engineering, process and safety. Articles describing machines, materials, parameters, post-processing or workflows are editorial descriptions, not operating instructions. Additive manufacturing involves real hazards, including high temperatures, moving parts, lasers, high-pressure and inert gases, metal and polymer powders, photopolymer resins, solvents, adhesives and fine particulate and VOC emissions. Always follow the manufacturer's manual, the applicable Safety Data Sheet, and the safety, ventilation, PPE, electrical and waste-disposal regulations that apply in your jurisdiction. You are solely responsible for the safe operation of your own equipment and facilities.

Medical and healthcare. Our coverage of 3D printing in healthcare - implants, surgical guides, bioprinting, prosthetics, dental, drug delivery - is reported for an industry audience and is educational in nature. It is not medical advice and is not a substitute for professional diagnosis, treatment, or the judgement of a qualified clinician. Medical devices are subject to regulatory approval, which differs by country; coverage of a device on the Website does not mean it is approved or available where you are.

Regulatory, legal and financial. Nothing on the Website is legal, regulatory, tax, investment or financial advice. Market figures, forecasts and company valuations we report are drawn from third-party sources and should not be relied on for investment or procurement decisions.

3. Sponsored content, advertising and commercial relationships

Manufactur3D is a commercially funded publication. We sell advertising, and we publish content that is paid for by, supplied by, or produced in collaboration with brands. This includes press releases, promotional articles, sponsored interviews, brand stories, event promotion, banner advertising, newsletter placements and video features.

Where an item is paid for or commercially sponsored, we label it - for example as "Sponsored", "Press Release", "Partner Content" or an equivalent marking on the article, or through a clearly identifiable sponsored section. Advertising and sponsorship do not give an advertiser editorial control over our independent news coverage, but sponsored and press-release material reflects the sponsor's own claims and positions, not ours.

Readers should treat sponsored and press-release content as promotional material and verify any claim independently before relying on it. We may also earn commission through affiliate or referral links, where used; this does not affect the price you pay.

4. Product reviews and testing

Review units, samples and access to equipment are frequently provided free of charge or on loan by manufacturers and distributors. We may also be paid to conduct and publish a review. We disclose the commercial basis of a review within the review itself.

Reviews reflect the tester's experience of a specific unit, firmware version and configuration at a specific point in time, under our own conditions, which will not match yours. Results are not guaranteed to be reproducible. A review is not certification, endorsement, or a recommendation to purchase.

5. Third-party and manufacturer-supplied information

Much of what we publish originates with third parties: press releases, company announcements, research papers, spec sheets, renders, photographs, benchmark data, market reports and quotations from interviewees.

We reproduce this material substantially as supplied. Performance figures, build volumes, speeds, accuracies, material properties, certifications, pricing, availability, shipping dates and market share claims are the claims of the party that made them. We do not independently verify them unless an article expressly states that we have, and we accept no responsibility for their accuracy.

6. Opinions of contributors and interviewees

Guest articles, columns, interviews, quotations and comments express the views of their authors or speakers alone. They do not represent the views of Manufactur3D, its publisher, its staff or its advertisers, and publication does not imply that we endorse them.

7. Forward-looking statements

Content on the Website may include projections, forecasts, roadmaps and statements about future events, products or market conditions. These are inherently uncertain, depend on assumptions that may prove wrong, and are not promises. Actual outcomes may differ materially.

8. No endorsement

References to any company, product, service, technology, trade name or trademark are for identification and editorial purposes. They do not constitute endorsement, recommendation, certification, or any warranty of suitability, quality, safety or regulatory compliance.

The Website contains links to third-party websites, resources and files that we neither control nor maintain. We provide these links for convenience only. We do not endorse, and are not responsible for, the content, accuracy, availability, security, products, services or privacy practices of any external site. Following an external link is at your own risk, and that site's own terms and privacy policy will apply.

Our content. The text, original photography, graphics, data compilations and page design published on the Website are the copyright of Aayam 360 Media unless otherwise stated. You may quote briefly from our articles for review, comment or news reporting with clear attribution and a working link to the original. Republication of an article in whole or in substantial part, systematic scraping, or use of our content for training machine-learning models requires our prior written permission.

Third-party material. We publish third-party material only where we believe we hold the necessary rights - images and video supplied by companies for editorial use through press kits and media releases, licensed stock imagery, material made available under Creative Commons or equivalent licences, public-domain material, material used with the rights holder's written consent, and our own photography. Where a credit line or licence notice is required, we carry it in the caption or at the foot of the article.

Contributors. Guest authors, columnists and agencies who submit material to us warrant that they own or are licensed to use everything they supply, including images. Responsibility for material supplied to us in breach of that warranty rests with the contributor.

Notice and takedown. Mistakes and oversights happen. If you are a rights holder and believe that material on the Website has been published without the necessary licence, or without the credit your licence requires, please write to legal@manufactur3dmag.com with: (a) the URL of the page; (b) identification of the work concerned; (c) evidence of your ownership or authority to act; and (d) the remedy you are seeking - attribution, a licence, or removal. We will investigate and, where the claim is made out, correct or remove the material promptly, ordinarily within 10 working days of verification. We would much rather resolve a rights question directly than through correspondence between lawyers.

Trademarks. All trademarks, trade names, logos and brand assets appearing on the Website are the property of their respective owners and are used for identification and editorial purposes only. Their appearance does not imply any affiliation with, sponsorship by, or endorsement from their owners.

11. Website availability and security

We do not warrant that the Website will be available without interruption, that defects will be corrected, or that the Website or its server is free of viruses, malware or other harmful components. You are responsible for maintaining your own security measures.

12. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Manufactur3D, its publisher, directors, employees, contributors and agents shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive loss or damage - including loss of profit, revenue, data, goodwill, business interruption, equipment damage, scrapped parts or wasted material - whether arising in contract, negligence, other tort or otherwise, arising out of or in connection with the use of, or reliance on, the Website or its content, or your inability to access it.

Nothing in this disclaimer excludes or limits any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited under Indian law, including liability for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for death or personal injury caused by negligence.

13. Changes to content

We reserve the right to add to, amend, correct, unpublish or remove any content on the Website at any time, without prior notice and without obligation to explain the change.

14. Corrections and complaints

We want to get things right. If you believe something we have published is inaccurate, out of date, or infringes your rights, write to us at inquiries@manufactur3dmag.com with the article URL and details, and we will review it promptly.

15. Governing law and jurisdiction

This disclaimer is governed by the laws of India. The courts at Nashik, Maharashtra, India shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of or in connection with it or with your use of the Website.

16. AI-assisted content

We use AI tools in parts of our production process, always under human editorial review. Human editors are accountable for everything we publish.

We do not publish AI-generated quotations. Every quotation in our articles comes from a recording, an email, a press release or a document supplied to us. Specifications, figures and claims are checked against the source material. Every article carries a named human byline.

AI systems can produce errors and fabrications. The accuracy disclaimers in sections 1, 2 and 5 apply to AI-assisted content in full.
