Terms of Service: Disability Help Finder
DRAFT. Not reviewed by a licensed attorney. Effective date: [CONFIRM: launch date]
These Terms govern your use of disabilityhelpfinder.com (the "Site"), operated by [CONFIRM: exact legal name, e.g. "Lizzy O Inc"], a California [CONFIRM: corporation/LLC] ("we," "us"). By using the Site you agree to these Terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the Site.
1. What the Site is
The Site is a free directory of disability-related resources in the United States. Listings are for general information only. We are not a medical provider, law firm, financial adviser, or government agency, and we do not decide benefits eligibility. See our Disclaimer.
2. No warranty on listings
Listings are compiled from public sources and submissions and may be incomplete, inaccurate, or out of date. A listing is not an endorsement. Please confirm details directly with the organization before you rely on them. The Site is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, and non-infringement, to the extent permitted by law.
3. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for loss of data, benefits, or opportunities, arising from your use of the Site or any listing. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Site is limited to the greater of (a) the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim or (b) US $100. Some states don't allow these limits, so they may not fully apply to you.
4. User submissions
[CONFIRM: does the Site accept listing suggestions, corrections, reviews, or comments? Delete this section if not.] If you submit content (for example a suggested listing, correction, or comment), you confirm that it is accurate to the best of your knowledge, that you have the right to share it, and that it isn't unlawful, defamatory, harassing, or someone else's private information. You keep ownership of your content, but you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to use, edit, publish, and display it in connection with the Site. We may edit, decline, or remove any submission at our discretion. Please don't submit health details or other sensitive personal information.
5. Acceptable use
Don't misuse the Site. That includes scraping it at scale, interfering with its operation, trying to access accounts or systems without permission, or using it for any unlawful purpose.
6. External links
The Site links to third-party websites, including organizations in our listings and, in the future, sponsors and affiliates. We don't control those sites and aren't responsible for their content, accuracy, or privacy practices. See our Sponsor & Affiliate Disclosure.
7. Intellectual property
The Site's design, text, and compilation of listings belong to us or our licensors. You may share links and use the Site for personal, non-commercial purposes.
8. Indemnity
You agree to cover our reasonable losses from claims arising out of your submissions or your breach of these Terms.
9. Changes and termination
We may update these Terms and will change the effective date when we do. Continuing to use the Site means you accept the update. We may suspend access for misuse.
10. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute will be brought in the state or federal courts in Los Angeles County, California, and you and we consent to their jurisdiction. Either party may bring an eligible claim in small claims court.
[OPTION. Lizzy to decide, attorney to draft] Mandatory individual arbitration and a class-action waiver are not included. For a free informational directory, the benefit is low, and California places special requirements on these clauses. Add them only on an attorney's advice.
