Terms & Disclaimer

The short version: the maintenance schedules, care checklists, intervals, and cost figures on this site are general estimates to help you plan. They are not professional, medical, veterinary, or manufacturer advice. Always confirm against your owner's manual, a qualified professional, or your vet before acting.

1. Informational use only

studioam.art publishes maintenance schedules, care guides, checklists, intervals, and cost ranges for vehicles, homes, and other belongings, plus plant and pet care. It also publishes free learning and reference guides: travel phrases, English grammar, and journaling prompts. All of it is provided for general informational purposes only. It is not a substitute for professional judgment, a manufacturer's official service schedule, or advice from a mechanic, contractor, veterinarian, teacher, clinician, or other qualified expert.

2. How this content is produced

Much of the schedule and cost information is generated from general, rule-based estimates and typical-case values, and some descriptions are produced with the assistance of automated tools. Where an entry is rule-derived rather than taken from a manufacturer, the page says so. These estimates are intentionally conservative and deliberately omit high-stakes, model-specific items (for example, timing-belt intervals) that vary too much to estimate safely. Real intervals and prices vary with your specific model, climate, usage, and local rates.

3. No professional, medical, or veterinary advice

Nothing here is professional, medical, or veterinary advice. Pet-care information in particular is general guidance only. Consult your veterinarian for vaccinations, medication, diet, and any health concern. For vehicles, homes, boats, and RVs, follow the manufacturer's documentation and use a qualified professional for anything safety-related.

Our journaling prompts and mood words are for personal reflection only. They are not mental-health care, diagnosis, or therapy, and translations and grammar guidance are learning aids, not certified or professional translation. If you are struggling or in crisis, please reach out to a qualified professional or a local crisis line.

4. No affiliation with manufacturers or brands

Studio AM is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any vehicle manufacturer, brand, retailer, or other company referenced on this site. Product, make, and model names are used only to identify the items the guidance refers to. All trademarks are the property of their respective owners.

5. No warranty

This site and its content are provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including accuracy, completeness, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. We do not warrant that any interval, cost, or recommendation is correct or applicable to your situation.

6. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Studio AM and its members are not liable for any loss, damage, injury, or expense arising from your use of, or reliance on, the information on this site or in our apps, including missed maintenance, repairs, or any direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages. You use this information at your own risk. Where liability cannot be excluded, our total liability to you for any claim is limited to USD $100.

7. Assumption of risk & indemnification

You are solely responsible for deciding whether and how to act on any information here, and for hiring a qualified professional where one is needed. You knowingly assume all risk of using this site, our apps, and any guide, estimate, or checklist. You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Studio AM and its members from any claim, loss, or expense (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your use of the site or your reliance on its content.

8. Apps

The same terms apply to the schedules and care templates shown inside our apps. Our apps store your data on your own device and iCloud; see each app's privacy policy for details. The built-in schedules are starting estimates you can edit to match your own needs.

9. External links

We link to third-party sites (such as the App Store and Amazon). We are not responsible for the content, products, or policies of those sites. Purchases you make there are governed by that retailer's terms.

10. Governing law & disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute arising from the site or these terms will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in San Francisco, California, and you consent to that venue.

11. Changes

We may update these terms from time to time. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the updated terms. The "last updated" date above reflects the current version.

12. Severability

If any part of these terms is found unenforceable, the rest stays in effect, and the unenforceable part is limited only as much as needed.
