Terms of Service

Last updated: September 2, 2026 · Effective on first use of the Service

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) form a binding legal agreement between you (“you” or “User”) and Parlay Vision Consulting LLC, doing business as Cedarboard (“Cedarboard,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), governing your access to and use of the Cedarboard website, applications, APIs, and related services (collectively, the “Service”).

1. Definitions

• “Account” — your registered user account.
• “User Content” — any text, prompts, materials, files, or other content you submit to the Service.
• “Output” — material generated by the Service in response to your inputs, including lesson plans, worksheets, quizzes, slide decks, substitute packets, vocabulary and language supports, bilingual glossaries, family communications, explainers, and fact-check results.
• “Student Data” — any information relating to an identified or identifiable student, including personally identifiable information under FERPA, COPPA, or applicable state student-privacy law.
• “Subscription” — a paid plan (Pro or Max) purchased on a recurring basis.

2. Eligibility; Authority; Account Security

2.1 Eligibility. You must be at least 18 years old and legally capable of entering into a binding contract. The Service is a professional tool intended for educators, administrators, and other adults. It is not directed to children, and students must not be given Accounts.

2.2 Authority. If you use the Service on behalf of a school, district, or other organization, you represent and warrant that you have authority to bind that organization to these Terms, and “you” includes that organization. Nothing in these Terms creates a contract between us and your employer unless separately executed in writing.

2.3 Account Security. You are responsible for safeguarding your credentials and for all activity occurring under your Account, whether or not authorized by you. You must notify us promptly of any suspected unauthorized access. Accounts are personal to one individual and may not be shared, sold, or transferred.

2.4 Accurate Information. You agree to provide accurate registration information and to keep it current.

3. License to Use the Service

Subject to your compliance with these Terms and payment of applicable fees, we grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license to access and use the Service for your own professional educational purposes. We reserve all rights not expressly granted. You obtain no rights in the Service other than this license.

4. Artificial Intelligence — Nature and Limitations

4.1 Output is a draft. The Service uses generative artificial intelligence. Output is produced probabilistically and may be inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, biased, or otherwise unsuitable. All Output is a draft for your professional review and editing, not a finished or authoritative work product.

4.2 Your review obligation. You are solely responsible for reviewing, verifying, editing, and approving all Output before using it with students, distributing it to substitutes or colleagues, submitting it to an employer, or relying on it in any way. You retain full professional responsibility for your instructional decisions.

4.3 Fact-check feature. Where the Service checks claims against web sources, it performs an automated best-effort review. It does not guarantee accuracy, completeness, or the reliability of any third-party source, may fail to identify errors, and may return sources that are themselves inaccurate or out of date. A “confirmed” result is not a warranty of truth.

4.4 No standards certification. Any reference to curriculum standards is a suggestion only. We do not certify alignment to any national, state, district, or school standard, and you must verify alignment against your own governing documents.

4.5 No professional advice. The Service does not provide legal, employment, medical, psychological, special-education, or other professional advice, and must not be used to make individualized determinations about a student, including eligibility, diagnosis, discipline, placement, IEP or 504 content, or grading of an identified student.

4.6 Non-uniqueness. Output is not unique. Other users may receive substantially similar Output in response to similar inputs, and we make no representation that Output is original or non-infringing.

5. Student Data and Educational Privacy

5.1 Prohibition. The Service is designed to operate without Student Data. You must not submit Student Data to the Service, including student names, contact details, identification numbers, photographs, grades, assessment records, disciplinary records, or health, disability, or special-education records.

5.2 Anonymous class profiles. The class-profile feature records how many students in a class benefit from each kind of support, together with the languages spoken in the class. It must not be used to record information about an identifiable student, and the languages field must never contain a student’s name.

5.3 Allocation of responsibility. You are the party with the direct relationship to students and their families, and you are solely responsible for compliance with FERPA, COPPA, PPRA, and any applicable state student-privacy laws in connection with your use of the Service. We do not act as a “school official” with a legitimate educational interest, as an operator subject to state student-privacy statutes, or as a service provider processing Student Data on your behalf, unless we have separately executed a written data processing agreement with your institution.

5.4 Remediation. If Student Data is submitted contrary to these Terms, you must notify us promptly, and we may delete it without liability to you.

6. User Content and Output; Ownership

6.1 Your ownership. As between you and us, you retain all right, title, and interest in your User Content. To the extent we hold any rights in Output generated for you, we assign them to you, subject to these Terms.

6.2 License to operate the Service. You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, modify (for formatting and technical purposes), transmit, display, and process your User Content and Output solely to (a) operate, provide, secure, and support the Service; (b) transmit it to our service providers as described in our Privacy Policy; and (c) share it with recipients you designate. This license ends when you delete the relevant content, except for backup copies retained for a commercially reasonable period and content already shared with recipients.

6.3 Your representations. You represent and warrant that (a) you own or have all necessary rights in your User Content; (b) your User Content and its use do not infringe or misappropriate any third-party right or violate any law; and (c) your User Content contains no Student Data and no other personal information you lack a lawful basis to submit.

6.4 Our discretion. We may, but have no obligation to, review, screen, or remove User Content or Output that we reasonably believe violates these Terms or applicable law.

7. Share Links and Recipient Communications

Substitute packets are accessible through links containing an unguessable token. Any person holding such a link may access that packet and its exports without authentication. You control distribution, and you assume all risk arising from your distribution of, or failure to safeguard, a link. You represent that you have a legitimate basis to send absence notifications to each recipient address you enter, and you are solely responsible for the accuracy of those addresses and for compliance with anti-spam laws including the CAN-SPAM Act.

The Service delivers materials and notifications only. It is not a system of record and does not replace your employer’s absence reporting, leave, payroll, human-resources, or substitute-placement processes. You remain obligated to report absences as your employer requires.

8. Acceptable Use

You shall not, and shall not permit any third party to:

• Submit Student Data, or any personal information you lack a lawful basis to submit;
• Use the Service to create material that is unlawful, defamatory, harassing, hateful, sexually explicit, or harmful to minors;
• Infringe or misappropriate any intellectual property, privacy, or publicity right;
• Access the Service by automated means, scrape, crawl, or bulk-generate Output except through interfaces we expressly provide;
• Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to derive source code, model weights, prompts, or training data from the Service;
• Resell, sublicense, white-label, or commercially redistribute the Service or Output as a competing product or service;
• Circumvent or attempt to circumvent usage limits, plan restrictions, authentication, or rate limits;
• Probe, scan, penetration-test, overload, or interfere with the Service or its infrastructure, or introduce malicious code;
• Use the notification features to send unsolicited, deceptive, or bulk communications;
• Misrepresent your identity or the origin of any packet or communication;
• Use the Service to develop, train, or improve any competing machine learning model or generative AI service.

We may investigate suspected violations and may suspend or terminate access immediately where we reasonably believe a violation creates legal risk, security risk, or risk of harm. Where practicable and lawful, we will give notice and an opportunity to export your content.

9. Subscriptions, Fees, Auto-Renewal, and Cancellation

9.1 Plans. The Service offers a free plan with usage limits and paid Pro and Max Subscriptions billed monthly or annually at the prices displayed at checkout.

9.3 Payment processing. Payments are processed by Stripe, Inc. We do not receive or store full payment card numbers. You authorize us and our processor to charge your payment method for all amounts due, and you represent you are authorized to use it.

9.4 Refunds. Except where required by law, fees are non-refundable and there are no refunds or credits for partial periods, unused capacity, or downgrades. We may issue discretionary refunds without creating an obligation to do so in other cases.

9.5 Price changes. We may change prices prospectively. We will give at least 30 days’ notice by email before a change affects your renewal, and your continued use after the change takes effect constitutes acceptance. Price changes never apply retroactively to a period already paid.

9.6 Taxes. Fees exclude taxes. You are responsible for all sales, use, VAT, GST, and similar taxes, excluding taxes on our net income.

9.7 Failed payment. If a charge fails, we may retry, and may suspend or downgrade your Subscription until payment succeeds.

9.8 Free trial. New Accounts may receive a time-limited trial of Pro-level features. Trials are for evaluation, may be modified or withdrawn at any time, and are limited to one per person. No payment method is required, and no charge occurs at the end of a trial unless you affirmatively subscribe.

10. Fair Use of “Unlimited” Plans

Paid plans are described as unlimited with respect to generation volume and library size for ordinary individual professional use. The following limits apply:

• Generation volume: 300 generations per 30 days. This ceiling applies to paid plans and to the free trial. It is set far above ordinary individual professional use — approximately ten generations per day, every day — and exists so that a single Account cannot incur costs disproportionate to all subscriptions. If you reach it, the Service will tell you when the next generation becomes available, and you may contact us to discuss your needs.
• Storage: 10 GB per User. Text-based materials consume negligible storage; this limit principally concerns uploaded files where that capability is available. We will notify you before the limit affects your use of the Service and will work with you in good faith rather than deleting your materials.
• Individual use only. Unlimited use covers one educator’s own teaching. It excludes automated or scripted generation, sharing of an Account among multiple people, institutional deployment, and resale. Institutional licensing is available by agreement.

We may apply reasonable technical rate limits to protect Service stability and may contact you regarding usage that is materially inconsistent with individual professional use.

11. Our Intellectual Property

The Service, including its software, design, user interface, prompts, curated Knowledge Hub and Future-Ready pack content, trademarks, logos, and all related intellectual property, is owned by us or our licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws. Except for the license in Section 3, no rights are granted to you.

Copyright complaints. If you believe material available through the Service infringes your copyright, send a notice to support@cedarboard.app that identifies the copyrighted work, identifies the material complained of and where it appears, provides your contact information, states your good-faith belief that the use is not authorized, states under penalty of perjury that the notice is accurate and that you are the owner or authorized to act for the owner, and bears your physical or electronic signature. We respond to valid notices consistent with 17 U.S.C. § 512, including removing or disabling access to the material and, in appropriate circumstances, terminating repeat infringers.

12. Feedback

If you submit suggestions, feature requests, or other feedback, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free license to use and exploit it for any purpose without obligation, attribution, or compensation to you.

13. Third-Party Services

The Service depends on third-party providers, including hosting, database, email delivery, payment, and artificial intelligence providers, and may link to third-party websites. We do not control those parties, are not responsible for their acts, omissions, availability, content, or policies, and disclaim liability arising from them. Your use of a third-party service is governed by that party’s terms.

14. Beta and Experimental Features

We may offer features identified as beta, preview, or experimental. These are provided “as is” for evaluation, may be changed or discontinued at any time, may be less reliable, and are excluded from any commitment or remedy under these Terms.

15. Modifications to the Service and to these Terms

15.1 Service. We may add, modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Service. We will give reasonable notice of a change that materially and adversely reduces core functionality of a paid plan; if such a change materially harms you, your exclusive remedy is to cancel and receive a pro-rata refund of prepaid, unused fees.

15.2 Terms. We may amend these Terms. For material amendments, we will provide notice by email or in-Service notice at least 14 days before they take effect. Your continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance. If you do not agree, you must stop using the Service and may cancel for a pro-rata refund of prepaid, unused fees.

16. Term, Termination, and Effect

16.1 These Terms apply from your first use until terminated.

16.2 By you. You may terminate at any time by cancelling your Subscription and ceasing use, and may request deletion of your Account.

16.3 By us. We may suspend or terminate your Account (a) immediately for breach of Sections 5, 7, or 8, non-payment, or where required by law or to prevent harm; or (b) for convenience on 30 days’ notice, with a pro-rata refund of prepaid, unused fees.

16.4 Effect. On termination your license ends and access ceases. Deleted materials remain restorable for 30 days, after which they are permanently removed. Export anything you need before terminating. We may retain records required for legal, tax, or accounting purposes and de-identified operational data.

16.5 Survival. Sections 4, 5.3, 6.2–6.4, 7, 11, 12, 13, 16.4, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, and 22 survive termination.

17. Disclaimer of Warranties

18. Limitation of Liability

The allocation of risk in Sections 17 and 18 is an essential basis of the bargain and is reflected in the pricing of the Service.

19. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Cedarboard and its officers, directors, employees, agents, licensors, and suppliers from and against all claims, demands, actions, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or relating to: (a) your User Content; (b) your use of the Service or Output, including any use with students or distribution to third parties; (c) your submission of Student Data or other personal information in breach of these Terms; (d) your violation of these Terms or applicable law; or (e) your violation of any third-party right. We may assume exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification, at your expense, and you agree to cooperate.

20. Dispute Resolution; Binding Arbitration; Class Action Waiver

20.1 Informal resolution first. Before filing any claim, you agree to contact us at support@cedarboard.app with a written description of the dispute and the relief sought, and to negotiate in good faith for at least 60 days. This is a condition precedent to arbitration.

20.2 Binding arbitration. Except as stated in Section 20.4, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service shall be resolved by final and binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its then-current consumer rules, before a single arbitrator, seated in Clark County, Nevada. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve disputes about the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this agreement, except that a court decides the enforceability of the class action waiver in Section 20.3. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

20.3 Class action and jury waiver. YOU AND WE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS OR PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. YOU AND WE WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL. If this waiver is found unenforceable as to a particular claim, that claim shall proceed in court and all other claims remain in arbitration.

20.4 Exceptions. Either party may (a) bring an individual action in small claims court, and (b) seek injunctive or equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction for actual or threatened infringement or misuse of intellectual property or unauthorized access to the Service.

20.5 Costs. Arbitration fees are governed by the administrator’s rules, including any provisions requiring us to bear costs for consumer claims. Each party bears its own attorneys’ fees unless the arbitrator determines otherwise under applicable law.

20.6 Limitations period. To the extent permitted by law, any claim must be filed within one (1) year after it arises, or it is permanently barred.

20.7 Your right to opt out. You may reject this arbitration agreement by emailing support@cedarboard.app with the subject line “Arbitration Opt-Out,” stating your name and Account email, within 30 days of first accepting these Terms. Opting out does not affect any other provision, and will not affect your use of the Service.

20.8 Applicability. This Section does not apply where prohibited by law, and nothing in it deprives a consumer of any mandatory protection or forum available under the law of their country of residence.

21. Governing Law and Venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Nevada, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, and excluding the U.N. Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. Subject to Section 20, the state and federal courts located in Clark County, Nevada have exclusive jurisdiction, and you consent to personal jurisdiction and venue there. If you are a consumer resident in a jurisdiction whose law grants you mandatory protections, nothing here deprives you of them.

22. General Provisions

22.1 Entire agreement. These Terms and the Privacy Policy constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service and supersede all prior or contemporaneous understandings. Any purchase order or vendor terms you issue are void and of no effect.

22.2 Severability. If any provision is held unenforceable, it shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to be enforceable, or severed, and the remaining provisions remain in full force.

22.3 No waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of it.

22.4 Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets. Subject to this, these Terms bind permitted successors and assigns.

22.5 Force majeure. We are not liable for any delay or failure caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including acts of God, natural disaster, war, terrorism, labor disputes, governmental action, internet or utility failure, or failures of third-party providers.

22.6 Notices; electronic communications. You consent to receive communications from us electronically, and agree that electronic notices satisfy any legal requirement of writing. We may give notice by email to your Account address or by posting in the Service. You must give notice to support@cedarboard.app and, where legally required, to 871 Coronado Center Drive, Henderson, NV 89052.

22.7 Relationship; no third-party beneficiaries. The parties are independent contractors. These Terms create no agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment relationship, and confer no rights on any third party.

22.8 Export and sanctions. You represent that you are not located in, and are not a national of or controlled by, any country or party subject to applicable trade sanctions or export restrictions, and that you will comply with all applicable export control laws.

22.9 U.S. government users. The Service is “commercial computer software” provided with restricted rights under FAR 12.212 and DFARS 227.7202, as applicable.

22.10 Headings and interpretation. Headings are for convenience only. “Including” means “including without limitation.” These Terms will not be construed against the drafter.

22.11 Language. These Terms are drafted in English, which controls in the event of any conflict with a translation.
