Terms of Service

Updated 2026-10-13

Agreement

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of PatternPRO — the mobile apps and this website — operated by HMD Digital S.R.L. ("we", "us", "our") and published by MB Design di Bagalini Marco. By downloading, accessing, or using PatternPRO, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

1. The Service

PatternPRO is a mobile companion to Marco Bagalini's Italian patternmaking method (Le basi). You store body measurements on your device, calculate construction lengths in centimetres for the nine women's base patterns, and follow short Learn lessons to mark those numbers on paper and draft patterns by hand. The Learn catalog (18 lessons) is fetched from our servers and cached on your device for use in the app.

The Service is available as Android and iOS apps. The apps are ads-supported. In-app purchases are not offered in the current version.

The PatternPRO book (ebook and paperback) is sold separately through Amazon under Amazon's own terms and pricing. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Service at any time, with or without notice.

2. Eligibility and local profile

You must be at least 18 years old, or have your parent's or guardian's consent where local law allows use by younger users, to use the Service. App downloads and store payments are governed by the applicable store's terms (Google Play or the Apple App Store).

PatternPRO does not require an account on our servers. People profiles you create in the app (display name and measurements) exist only on your device. You are responsible for keeping your device and app access safe.

3. Your data stays on your device

Your measurement profiles, people, and calculated results are stored locally and are not backed up by us. If you change devices, clear app data, or uninstall the app, that data is gone — please record important measurements elsewhere.

You keep ownership of your measurements and the patterns you draft. We claim no rights over your body measurements or the garments you make.

4. Acceptable use

  • No redistributing PatternPRO formulas, calculated construction tables, or the Learn lessons — they are licensed for your personal use only.
  • No scraping, reverse-engineering, or circumventing access controls on the apps or this website.
  • No unlawful, infringing, or fraudulent activity, and no interference with the Service's operation.
  • No resale or sublicensing of the Service except as we authorise in writing.

5. Advertising in the apps

The Android and iOS apps display banner and interstitial ads served by Google AdMob (https://support.google.com/admob). Personalised ads are shown only where you consent via Google's in-app consent form (UMP) — in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland this consent is required before personalised ads run; without it, ads are non-personalised or not shown. Ads never appear in the web version. Advertising is Google's processing under Google's terms; see our Privacy Notice at https://patternpro.hmd.digital/privacy.

6. Intellectual property

The Service — including software, the formula packs, the Learn lessons, text, design, and trademarks (excluding your own locally stored data) — is owned by HMD Digital S.R.L., MB Design di Bagalini Marco, or their licensors. No rights are granted except as expressly stated in these Terms.

7. Disclaimers

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

Calculated lengths and pattern lessons are drafting aids based on the Le basi method. You are responsible for checking measurements and toiles before cutting fabric; we do not guarantee sewing outcomes or garment fit.

8. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, HMD DIGITAL S.R.L., MB DESIGN DI BAGALINI MARCO, THEIR DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AND SUPPLIERS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, GOODWILL, OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, INCLUDING LOST MEASUREMENT DATA STORED ONLY ON YOUR DEVICE.

OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM OR (B) ONE HUNDRED EUROS (€100).

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations; in those cases, our liability is limited to the fullest extent permitted by law.

9. Termination and changes

You may stop using the Service at any time; uninstalling the apps removes your locally stored data. We may suspend or terminate access for breach, risk, or abuse, with or without notice. We may update these Terms from time to time; material changes will be posted on this page with an updated date, and continued use after they take effect constitutes acceptance.

10. Governing law and jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the laws of Italy, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Subject to mandatory consumer protections, the courts of Latina, Italy shall have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes arising from these Terms.

If you are a consumer in the European Union, you may also have rights to bring proceedings in your country of residence where mandatory law so provides.
