These End-User Terms are a legal agreement between you and Saha Sales Inc., a California corporation doing business as Saha Lighting Solutions ("Saha," "Company," "we," or "us"). They apply when you access or use Lighting Studio through a lighting manufacturer, lighting representative agency, or other business that embeds, links, brands, or makes the tool available (the "Host Customer").
By checking the acceptance box and selecting "Agree and Continue," you agree to these End-User Terms and acknowledge the Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the tool.
You must be at least 18 years old and legally capable of entering into this agreement. If you use the tool for an organization, you represent that you have authority to act for that organization.
Lighting Studio is software that generates preliminary fixture-count, illuminance, and lighting-layout estimates from manufacturer information, photometric or IES files, inputs, selections, and assumptions. The Host Customer may supply fixture data, branding, product claims, recommendations, and surrounding website content. The Host Customer is not Saha's agent and cannot create a warranty, professional duty, or liability commitment for Saha.
Subject to these Terms, Saha grants you a limited, revocable, nonexclusive, nontransferable right to use the tool for lawful evaluation and preliminary planning. You may not reverse engineer, scrape, overload, interfere with, bypass a security or legal control, use the tool to build a competing service, or use it unlawfully.
The tool is a preliminary estimation and product-exploration tool. An output is not an engineered, certified, PE-stamped, permit-ready, construction-ready, or guaranteed code-compliant design. It is not an instruction to purchase, construct, install, aim, mount, wire, operate, inspect, approve, or accept a lighting system.
Saha does not provide engineering, architectural, electrical-design, safety-consulting, code-consulting, or other licensed professional services. Using the tool or communicating with Saha does not create an engineer-client, architect-client, fiduciary, professional, advisory, agency, or other special relationship. Saha does not inspect a site, accept responsible charge of a project, stamp or seal plans, supervise installation, or guarantee code compliance or installed performance.
Results depend on manufacturer and user-supplied information, IES or photometric files, lumen packages, dimensions, geometry, reflectances, mounting heights, aiming, obstructions, environmental conditions, maintenance assumptions, site conditions, selected targets, and other inputs and assumptions. Saha does not independently authenticate or continuously verify those items.
Calculated results may differ materially from installed performance because of field conditions, product variation, degradation, dirt, voltage, controls, installation, obstructions, surface characteristics, measurement methods, incorrect or outdated data, and other factors.
You are responsible for the accuracy and legality of information you submit. Do not submit sensitive personal information.
You are responsible for independently verifying all material fixture information, inputs, assumptions, site conditions, calculations, applicable requirements, product selections, quantities, and results before purchase, construction, installation, approval, acceptance, or safety-critical use.
You are responsible for final fixture selection, quantities, spacing, mounting, aiming, controls, wiring, installation, purchasing, construction, code and energy compliance, permits, inspections, safety decisions, project acceptance, and measurement of installed performance.
Obtain qualified professional review wherever appropriate or required. Roadway, emergency, egress, security, hazardous-location, life-safety, and similar decisions must never be based solely on the tool.
You may not present an output as a certified, final, guaranteed, or professionally approved design or remove or obscure a disclaimer from an output.
The Host Customer, not Saha, is responsible for the Host Customer's fixture data, specifications, product claims, recommendations, pricing, inventory, warranties, website, privacy practices, cookies, analytics, branding, modifications, integrations, sales statements, and products. A purchase or transaction with a Host Customer is between you and that Host Customer.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the tool and all outputs, estimates, calculations, layouts, reports, data, and related materials are provided "as is," "as available," and "with all faults," and at your sole risk.
Saha and the Saha Protected Parties disclaim all warranties, duties, representations, and conditions of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, accuracy, completeness, reliability, availability, security, compatibility, uninterrupted or error-free operation, achievement of a result, and suitability for a project, product, site, standard, code, or jurisdiction.
Saha does not warrant that the tool will correctly determine a fixture type or quantity, that every error will be corrected, that an output will meet your intended purpose, that an authority will accept an output, or that calculated results will correspond to installed performance.
No oral or written advice, support response, demonstration, documentation, or information creates a warranty or professional duty not expressly stated in these Terms.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Saha and the Saha Protected Parties will not be liable under any legal or equitable theory for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, enhanced, statutory, or punitive damages; lost profits, revenue, business, opportunities, contracts, savings, or goodwill; business interruption; data loss or inaccuracy; substitute products or services; fixture purchases or returns; excess or insufficient fixture quantities; energy costs; project redesign, rework, delay, change orders, removal, replacement, installation, labor, equipment, permitting, inspection, testing, or professional fees; code or energy failures; rejected plans; failed inspections; or differences between calculated and installed performance.
These exclusions apply to claims based on manufacturer or user information, IES files, photometric data, inputs, assumptions, site conditions, service interruption, or reliance on an output, even if Saha was advised that a loss was possible and even if a limited remedy fails of its essential purpose.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the total aggregate liability of Saha and all Saha Protected Parties, collectively, for all claims, users, events, and theories combined will not exceed the greater of: (a) one hundred U.S. dollars; or (b) the amount you paid directly to Saha for the tool during the six months before the first event giving rise to the claim. This is one combined cap and is not multiplied by the number of claims, outputs, events, or protected parties.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability to the extent applicable law does not permit that liability to be excluded or limited, including applicable liability for fraud, willful injury or misconduct, gross negligence, or violation of law. If a limitation is unenforceable as to a particular claim, it remains effective as to all other claims and will be reformed only to the minimum extent necessary.
"Saha Protected Parties" means Saha Sales Inc., its affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees, contractors, licensors, suppliers, service providers, successors, assigns, and agents.
Before starting arbitration or a court proceeding, you must email support@sahalighting.com with the subject "Notice of Dispute" and provide your name, available contact information, acceptance ID if available, Host Customer, approximate acceptance date, a description of the dispute, and requested relief. Saha will use available contact information to provide notice to you. The parties will attempt in good faith to resolve the matter for 30 days after receipt. Applicable filing deadlines are tolled during that period to the extent permitted by law.
Except for Section 9.6 and a valid opt-out, every dispute arising out of or relating to the tool, an output, these Terms, the Privacy Policy, the relationship between you and Saha, or the formation, scope, or enforceability of an agreement will be resolved by final and binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association.
If the dispute arises from use for personal, family, or household purposes or AAA otherwise determines that its Consumer Arbitration Rules apply, the AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures in effect when the demand is filed will apply. Otherwise, the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures will apply. The AAA Mass Arbitration Supplementary Rules and applicable fee schedule apply when AAA determines that the filing qualifies. The Federal Arbitration Act governs this Section to the maximum extent permitted by law.
Arbitration fees will be allocated under the applicable AAA rules and applicable law. Saha will pay fees that the applicable rules or law require the business to pay. One neutral arbitrator will decide the dispute. A hearing will be remote or documents-only where the applicable rules permit unless the parties agree otherwise or the arbitrator determines another format is necessary. The arbitrator may award any remedy available in an individual action, subject to the enforceable limitations in these Terms. Judgment on the award may be entered in a court with jurisdiction.
The arbitrator will decide issues concerning the interpretation, applicability, scope, formation, and enforceability of this arbitration agreement, except that a court will decide the enforceability of the class-action waiver and any issue that applicable law requires a court to decide.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, you and Saha waive a jury trial. You and Saha may bring a dispute only in an individual capacity and not as a plaintiff, claimant, or member in a class, collective, consolidated, coordinated, private-attorney-general, or representative proceeding. The arbitrator may not preside over class or representative arbitration or combine different claimants' claims without the written consent of all parties.
Nothing in this paragraph waives a right to seek public injunctive relief that applicable law does not permit a party to waive. The arbitrator may award any public injunctive relief available in an individual action where legally permitted. If a court determines that a request for public injunctive relief cannot lawfully be arbitrated, only that request will proceed in court, and the remaining arbitrable claims will remain in arbitration.
You or Saha may bring a qualifying individual action in small-claims court. Saha may seek temporary, preliminary, or permanent injunctive relief in court to protect intellectual property, confidential information, account security, or the integrity of the tool. Using an exception does not waive arbitration of another claim.
To the extent permitted by law, a claim against Saha or a Saha Protected Party must be filed within one year after it first accrued or it is permanently barred. This does not shorten a period that applicable law prohibits the parties from shortening.
You may opt out of Sections 9.2 through 9.5 by emailing support@sahalighting.com within 30 days after first accepting version 2026-06-18-final. Use the subject "End-User Arbitration Opt-Out" and provide your name, acceptance ID if available, Host Customer, approximate acceptance date, and a clear statement that you opt out. If you do not have the acceptance ID, provide enough information for Saha reasonably to locate the acceptance record. Opting out does not affect another provision.
A dispute that validly proceeds in court must be brought exclusively in the state courts located in San Bernardino County, California, or the United States District Court for the Central District of California, as applicable, except where consumer law requires another venue.
California law governs without regard to conflicts-of-law rules, except that the Federal Arbitration Act governs arbitration. Mandatory protections of the law of your residence apply where they cannot lawfully be waived.
If a portion of this Section is unenforceable, it will be severed or reformed to the minimum extent necessary and the remainder will continue in effect. If the class-action waiver is unenforceable as to a particular claim, only that claim will proceed in court unless applicable law requires a different result.
If AAA is unavailable or declines to administer a dispute for a reason unrelated to a party's failure to comply with AAA requirements, the parties will attempt to agree on a substitute provider. If they cannot agree, a court with jurisdiction may appoint an arbitrator under applicable law. A party may not avoid arbitration by failing to pay a fee it is required to pay.
Saha's Privacy Policy explains how Saha collects, uses, shares, retains, and protects information. The Host Customer may separately collect information under its own privacy policy. Saha is not responsible for the Host Customer's independent privacy practices.
Saha may update these Terms. If Saha makes a material change, the tool will require affirmative acceptance of the new version before further use. Saha may suspend or terminate access for misuse, security risk, violation of these Terms, legal requirements, or discontinuation of the tool.
These Terms create no third-party beneficiary rights except that each Saha Protected Party is an intended beneficiary of and may enforce provisions that expressly protect it. You may not assign these Terms without Saha's written consent. Saha may assign them in connection with a merger, reorganization, financing, sale of assets, or change of control. A failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. If a provision is invalid, it will be enforced to the maximum lawful extent and the remainder will remain effective. These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and Saha concerning your use of the tool. Provisions concerning disclaimers, liability, disputes, intellectual property, and provisions that by their nature should survive will survive termination.
