Terms of Service

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Parental learning platform operated by Parental LLC ("Parental", "we", "us", or "our"). By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract under applicable law to use the Service. By using the Service you represent that you meet these requirements.

Account Registration and Security

You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information when registering and to keep that information up to date. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and for all activities that occur under your account.

Notify us immediately of any unauthorized access. We are not liable for any loss caused by unauthorized use of your account.

Subscriptions, Purchases, and Payments

The Service offers paid Educator subscriptions and per-course purchases for Learners. Payments are processed by Stripe and subject to Stripe's terms. By purchasing, you authorize us to charge your selected payment method for the applicable fees, including any applicable taxes.

Educator subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period unless cancelled before renewal. You may cancel at any time from your account settings; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period.

Course purchases are generally non-refundable except as required by law or expressly stated otherwise. If you believe a charge is in error, contact us within 14 days.

Educator Terms

If you publish content as an Educator, you represent that you own or have the necessary rights to the content you upload, and that the content does not infringe any third-party rights or violate any law. You retain ownership of your content and grant Parental a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, display, transcode, and distribute it through the Service for the purpose of operating the platform.

Educator payouts are processed via Stripe Connect. You are responsible for providing accurate tax and identity information and for any taxes owed on amounts you receive. A minimum balance threshold (currently $25) applies before payouts can be issued. Parental retains a platform fee on each transaction as disclosed in your educator dashboard.

You may not upload content that is medically misleading, dangerous, or that purports to provide individualized medical advice. We may remove content and suspend accounts that violate these Terms.

User Conduct

You agree not to:

• Use the Service in any unlawful manner or for any unlawful purpose
• Share your account credentials or allow others to use your account
• Download, copy, redistribute, or resell course content outside the Service
• Attempt to reverse engineer, decompile, or interfere with the Service
• Upload content that is harassing, infringing, defamatory, or illegal
• Impersonate another person or misrepresent your affiliation
• Use automated tools (scrapers, bots) to access the Service without our written consent

Intellectual Property

The Service, including its software, design, logos, and Parental-produced content, is owned by Parental and protected by intellectual property laws. We grant you a limited, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Service for personal, non- commercial purposes consistent with these Terms.

Not Medical Advice

The Service provides educational content only and is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always seek the advice of a qualified health provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition, pregnancy, or your child's health.

Never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking it because of something you have read or watched on the Service. If you think you have a medical emergency, call your doctor or emergency services immediately.

Disclaimers

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or that any defects will be corrected.

Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Parental and its affiliates, officers, employees, and educators shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits or revenues, arising out of or in connection with your use of the Service. Our aggregate liability for any claim arising out of these Terms or the Service shall not exceed the amount you paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Parental, its affiliates, and their respective officers, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of your use of the Service, your content, or your violation of these Terms or any third-party rights.

Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time, with or without notice, if we believe you have violated these Terms or applicable law, or if we discontinue the Service. You may stop using the Service at any time. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination (including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and governing law) will survive.

Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. Any dispute arising under these Terms shall be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Virginia, and you consent to the jurisdiction of those courts.

Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date and, for material changes, notify you by email or through the Service. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
