Wardline Co-Parent Terms of Service and End User License Agreement
These terms are an agreement between you and Wardline LLC ("Wardline", "we", "us") about your use of Wardline Co-Parent, its apps and its website features ("Co-Parent"). They are both our terms of service and the end user license agreement for the Co-Parent apps. By creating a household, joining one, installing the app or otherwise using Co-Parent, you accept them. If you don't accept them, don't use Co-Parent.
1. What Co-Parent is
Co-Parent is software that helps the members of a household organise shared parenting: schedules, handovers, messages, expenses, items, activities, trips and appointments, and a record of what was agreed. It is a tool. It is not a law firm, a mediator, a counsellor, a medical service, a safety service or an emergency service. We don't give legal, medical, financial or parenting advice, we don't take sides, and we don't decide anything for you. If a professional uses Co-Parent with your household, they remain solely responsible for their own advice and services.
2. Not for medical records
Co-Parent is for appointment logistics only: when and where, and who is taking the children. It is not a place for medical records and is not designed or protected as one. You agree not to enter diagnoses, conditions, treatment, test results, medication or any other health information, in appointments, messages, attachments or anywhere else in Co-Parent. If you do, you do so entirely at your own risk, and we have no obligations for that information beyond those that apply to any other content.
3. Not an emergency or safety service
Co-Parent doesn't monitor households, doesn't contact anyone for you and isn't a way to get help. If anyone is in danger, call 911 or your local emergency number. The safety check on messages is automated and imperfect: it can miss harmful messages and can hold back harmless ones. Don't rely on it, or on notifications, check-ins or reminders arriving or being correct, to keep anyone safe or to meet any deadline or obligation.
4. You are responsible for what you do and enter
You are solely responsible for everything you enter, upload, send, agree to or do in Co-Parent, and for its accuracy and lawfulness. You confirm that you have the right to enter information about the people in your household, including children, and that what you enter doesn't break any court order, law or anyone else's rights. You are responsible for your own decisions and for complying with any court order, parenting plan or agreement that applies to you. Nothing in Co-Parent changes, replaces or enforces a court order.
5. AI and suggestions
Some features use automated systems, including AI, to check messages, suggest wording or draft schedules from what you provide. Their output can be wrong, incomplete or unsuitable. It is only a suggestion: review it yourself, and nothing it drafts takes effect until the members of your household confirm it. You are responsible for anything you accept, send or agree to.
6. The record
Co-Parent keeps a record of what members do, and any member can export it. We don't promise that a record, an export or a verification will be accepted by a court, agency or anyone else, or that it will be complete or error-free. Whether and how to use it is up to you and your advisers. Keep your own copies of anything you need.
7. Use at your own risk; no warranties
Co-Parent, including its apps, content, records, exports, AI features, safety check, notifications, check-ins, verification and support, is provided "as is" and "as available", with all faults. To the fullest extent the law allows, we disclaim all warranties and conditions of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, accuracy, availability, security, or that Co-Parent will be uninterrupted, timely, error-free or free of harmful components, or that any data will be preserved. Some places don't allow some of these exclusions; there, they apply to the fullest extent allowed.
8. Limits on our liability
To the fullest extent the law allows, Wardline and its owners, employees, contractors and suppliers are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, profits, goodwill, custody, time with your children, legal position or other intangible loss, or for anything arising from content entered by you or any other person, from another member's conduct, from automated or AI output, from a message held or not held, from a notification, check-in or reminder that failed or was late, or from how any record is used, even if we were told such loss was possible. Our total liability to you for all claims about Co-Parent is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us for Co-Parent in the 12 months before the claim arose and US$50. These limits apply whatever the legal theory and even if a remedy fails of its essential purpose. Nothing in these terms limits liability that the law does not allow to be limited.
9. Your indemnity
You will defend, indemnify and hold harmless Wardline and its owners, employees, contractors and suppliers from any claim, loss, liability, damage, cost or expense (including reasonable lawyers' fees) arising from your content, your use or misuse of Co-Parent, your breach of these terms or of any law or court order, or any dispute between you and another member or anyone else.
10. Your account and access
You must be 18 or over. Keep your devices and email account secure; you are responsible for all activity under your account. Invite codes and links are personal: don't share them. Only invite people who should be part of your household, and give accurate information.
11. Using Co-Parent properly
Use Co-Parent only lawfully and only for households you belong to. Don't misuse it, harass, threaten, monitor or harm anyone through it, try to get into information you're not entitled to see, interfere with it, copy, reverse-engineer or resell it, or use it to break a court order. We may remove content, and suspend or end anyone's access, at any time, to protect people, the service or ourselves.
12. Licence to use the apps
We grant you a personal, limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to install and use the Co-Parent apps on devices you own or control, only to use Co-Parent under these terms. We and our licensors keep all rights not expressly granted. The licence ends when these terms end for you.
13. Apple and Google
If you got the app from the Apple App Store or Google Play, these terms are between you and Wardline only, not Apple or Google, and Wardline alone is responsible for the app. Apple and Google have no obligation to provide maintenance or support for it. To the fullest extent the law allows, Apple and Google have no warranty obligation for the app; if the app fails to meet a warranty that the law requires, you may tell the store and it may refund the purchase price, if any. Wardline, not Apple or Google, is responsible for handling any claims about the app, including product liability, failure to meet legal or regulatory requirements, consumer protection, and claims that the app infringes someone else's intellectual property. You confirm that you are not in a country subject to a US government embargo or designated as supporting terrorism, and are not on any US government list of prohibited or restricted parties. You must also follow the store's own terms. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and may enforce them against you.
14. Other services
Co-Parent relies on other companies, including Amazon Web Services, Clerk, Expo, Apple and Google. Their services are provided under their own terms, and we are not responsible for them.
15. Your information
How we handle information is described in the Co-Parent privacy notice. Content belongs to the household members who entered it; you give us the rights we need to store, process and display it to provide Co-Parent. We don't sell it.
16. Changes
We may change, suspend or stop Co-Parent or any feature at any time, with or without notice, and may change these terms. When the terms change, you'll be asked to accept the new version before you carry on using Co-Parent.
17. Ending
You can stop using Co-Parent at any time; export anything you need first. Closing a household needs the agreement of its parents and ends with its content becoming permanently unreadable, so it can't be recovered by anyone, including us. We may end or suspend your access at any time if we believe these terms have been broken or to protect anyone. Sections 2 to 9, 13 to 15 and 18 to 20 continue after these terms end.
18. Disputes: individual arbitration, no class actions
Please contact us first at privacy@getwardline.com; most problems can be resolved that way. Any dispute about Co-Parent or these terms that isn't resolved within 60 days will be decided by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, not in court, except that either of us may bring an individual claim in small claims court, and either of us may ask a court for an injunction to protect intellectual property. You and we each give up the right to a jury trial and to bring or take part in any class, collective or representative action. You may opt out of this section by emailing privacy@getwardline.com within 30 days of first accepting these terms.
19. Law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Washington, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Subject to section 18, the state and federal courts in Spokane County, Washington have exclusive jurisdiction, and you consent to it.
20. General
These terms and the privacy notice are the whole agreement between you and us about Co-Parent. If any part is found unenforceable, the rest still applies and that part is enforced as far as the law allows. Not enforcing a part isn't a waiver of it. You may not transfer these terms; we may, including as part of a sale or reorganisation. Contact: Wardline LLC, 522 W Riverside Ave Ste N, Spokane, WA 99201-0581, USA, privacy@getwardline.com.
