Terms of Service & Nominative Fair Use

Last Updated: October 23, 2026

1. Scope of Service & Informational Purpose

Alabaster Analyzer provides mathematical simulations and colorimetric references for architectural design planning. All content, formulas, and digital swatches are delivered "as is" for informational and preliminary planning purposes only.

2. Nominative Fair Use Trademark Notice

"Sherwin-Williams" and individual color names such as "Alabaster", "Shoji White", "Greek Villa", "Accessible Beige", "Repose Gray", and "Iron Ore" are registered trademarks or proprietary product designations of The Sherwin-Williams Company.

Any reference to Sherwin-Williams products on this website is made strictly under the doctrine of Nominative Fair Use to objectively identify and analyze specific commercial coating specifications. Alabaster Analyzer is an independent third-party research project and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by The Sherwin-Williams Company.

3. Colorimetric Accuracy & Physical Substrate Disclaimer

Digital monitor displays operate under additive RGB color spaces (sRGB / Display P3) and cannot replicate the exact spectral reflectance of cured physical paints on dry substrates. Ambient illuminant color temperature, drywall porosity, primer quality, and room geometry alter in-situ visual perception. Always purchase and test physical paint samples under intended jobsite lighting before committing to full-scale architectural painting schedules.

4. Statutory Safe Harbor Disclaimer

Notice: This calculation engine models published statutory formulas and regulatory codes (CIE 15:2004, ASTM E313) for informational and planning purposes only. It does not provide certified legal, architectural engineering, or statutory compliance advice. For definitive rulings, consult an actively licensed professional in your jurisdiction.
