Terms of Service

Last updated: April 26, 2026

⚠ ClauseCheck is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice.The analysis produced by ClauseCheck is informational only. It is generated by an AI model using our prompts and may be wrong, incomplete, or inappropriate for your specific situation and jurisdiction. Do not sign or reject any contract based solely on ClauseCheck output. For contracts that matter, consult a qualified attorney.

1. The service

ClauseCheck (“we”, “us”, “the service”) is an automated contract review tool operated as a sole-proprietor side project. It scans contract text you submit and returns flagged clauses, severity ratings, and suggested redline language. Analysis is produced by the Anthropic Claude API using our proprietary prompts and may contain errors.

2. Acceptable use

You must be 18 years of age or older to use the service.
You must have the legal right to submit the contract text you scan (i.e., you are a party to it, or have the contract holder’s permission).
You may not scrape, resell, sublicense, or reverse-engineer the API, prompts, or outputs.
You may not submit content that is illegal, harmful, or violates the rights of others.
Automated or bulk use beyond the API’s rate limits is prohibited. We may suspend accounts that exceed fair use without notice.

3. Intellectual property

You own your content. You retain all rights to any contract text you submit. We do not acquire any ownership of your contract content by virtue of you using the service.

We own the platform. ClauseCheck, its prompts, clause taxonomy, scoring logic, UI, and all associated software are our proprietary property. You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use the service for your own personal or business contract review purposes.

Scan outputs. The flagged clauses, explanations, and suggested redlines generated by ClauseCheck in response to your input are yours to use. We retain no rights to the specific outputs generated for your contracts.

4. Plans and billing

Free accounts receive 5 scans per calendar month. Pro is a recurring subscription billed monthly or annually via Stripe. Lifetime is a one-time purchase capped at the first 500 users and is non-transferable and non-refundable after 14 days.

Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period. You may cancel at any time from the Customer Portal; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid period.

Refunds: Pro subscriptions are refundable within 7 days of the initial purchase if you have run fewer than 3 scans. Lifetime purchases are refundable within 14 days of purchase if you have run fewer than 3 scans. Email hello@clause-check.app to request a refund.

Lifetime scope. Lifetime members keep every feature included in ClauseCheck at the time of purchase, at no additional cost, for as long as the service operates. New tiers introduced after a Lifetime purchase — for example, team plans, multi-seat workspaces, or substantially different product lines — may require separate payment. Core contract scanning, redlines, role profiles, PDF export, and benchmarks remain included.

5. Disclaimers

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS.

We specifically disclaim any warranty that the flagged clauses, severity ratings, or suggested redlines are legally accurate, complete, or appropriate for your jurisdiction, industry, or specific contractual situation. AI-generated legal analysis has known limitations and should not be your sole basis for any legal or business decision.

6. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, CLAUSECHECK’S TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE — WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, STATUTE, OR OTHERWISE — IS LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF: (A) THE TOTAL FEES YOU PAID US IN THE 12 MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM, OR (B) USD $50.

IN NO EVENT WILL WE BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF DATA, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR LOSS OF GOODWILL, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or limitation of liability for consequential damages, so the above limitations may not apply to you in full.

7. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless ClauseCheck and its operators from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or relating to: (a) your use of the service; (b) contract text you submit; (c) your violation of these terms; or (d) your violation of any third-party rights. We reserve the right to assume exclusive defence of any matter subject to indemnification by you, at your expense.

8. Termination

You may delete your account at any time from your Account page. We may suspend or permanently terminate accounts that violate these terms, with or without notice. Upon termination, your right to access the service ends immediately. Sections 3, 5, 6, 7, 9, and 10 survive termination.

9. Dispute resolution

Informal resolution first. Before filing any formal legal claim, you agree to email hello@clause-check.app and give us 30 days to attempt to resolve the dispute informally. Most issues can be resolved this way.

Governing law. These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Ohio, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles.

Jurisdiction. For any dispute not resolved informally, you agree that any legal action will be brought exclusively in the federal or state courts located in Ohio, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of such courts.

Small claims. Either party may bring an individual claim in small claims court if it qualifies. Nothing in these terms prevents you from bringing claims with consumer protection agencies in your jurisdiction.

10. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. Material changes will be posted here with a new “last updated” date. For active paying subscribers, we will provide at least 14 days’ notice by email before material changes take effect. Continued use of the service after the effective date constitutes acceptance.
