Terms of Service
⚑ Working draft — not legally reviewed
Generated from how the app actually handles data, as a starting point. This is not legal advice and is not final. Anything shown as [confirm: like this] needs owner confirmation, and the whole document must be reviewed against a proper template or by a lawyer before it governs any paid signup.
Effective date: [confirm: set on finalization]
The service
HomeBasedEdu helps homeschooling families in Pennsylvania and New York track the records their state requires and generate compliance documents from that data. Free accounts include the daily record-keeper; paid plans add report and document generation, deadline reminders, and on-track status signals. The service is operated by [confirm: legal entity name].
Not legal advice
HomeBasedEdu is a record-keeping and document-preparation tool, not a law firm, and using it does not create an attorney–client relationship. Requirements and documents are provided to help you, but you are responsible for verifying all requirements with your local school district, and we do not guarantee that any generated document will be accepted by a district or agency. Nothing here is legal advice.
Your account
You sign in with a one-time email link. You are responsible for keeping access to your email secure and for the accuracy of the information you enter. You must be at least 18 years old and the parent or legal guardian (or an authorized adult) responsible for the children whose records you manage. [confirm: confirm the minimum age and eligibility wording]
Acceptable use
Use HomeBasedEdu only for lawful purposes and only to manage records for your own household. Do not attempt to access other users’ data, disrupt the service, or misuse the documents it generates. [confirm: confirm any restrictions on reselling or redistributing generated documents]
Subscriptions and billing
Paid plans are billed through Stripe on a recurring basis (monthly or yearly). Current plans and prices are shown on the billing page. By subscribing you authorize the recurring charge until you cancel.
- Cancellation: [confirm: confirm whether access ends immediately or at the end of the paid period]
- Refunds: [confirm: state your refund policy]
- Free trial: [confirm: confirm whether a trial is offered]
- Price changes: [confirm: confirm how existing subscribers are notified]
Your content
You keep ownership of the records, files, and information you put into HomeBasedEdu. You grant us permission to store and process that content only to provide the service to you (for example, to generate your documents and send your reminders). You are responsible for the accuracy of what you enter. Our handling of your data is described in the Privacy Policy.
Disclaimers and limitation of liability
The service is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind. We do not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted or error-free, or that using it will result in compliance with any legal requirement — that responsibility remains with you. [confirm: confirm the limitation-of-liability and warranty-disclaimer language with counsel]
Termination
You may stop using the service and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or end access if these terms are violated. [confirm: confirm termination terms and what happens to your data]
Governing law and changes
These terms are governed by [confirm: state/jurisdiction]. If we make material changes we will update this page and the effective date above. [confirm: confirm dispute-resolution and change-notice terms]
