Terms of Service

1.Acceptance & Eligibility

By creating an account or using the Services, you agree to these Terms. If you use the Services on behalf of a school, district, or organization, you represent that you are authorized to bind it, and "you" includes that entity.

Students may use school accounts only as authorized by their school. Schools represent that they have the authority and any required parental consent to permit student use consistent with FERPA and COPPA. Independent accounts are available only to people 13 or older (see Section 3).

2.The Services & License

Classrin provides scheduling, communication, campus-life, school-store, and related school-support features. Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access and use the Services for their intended purpose. We may update, add, or discontinue features over time.

3.School Accounts & Independent Accounts

School accounts are connected to a school on Classrin through the school's sign-up, district single sign-on (ClassLink), or a school administrator's teacher invite. Your school's policies apply, and the school controls student data.

If you sign up without a school ("My school isn't listed"), you have an independent account. For independent accounts:

• You must be at least 13 years old, and the birth month and year you give must be true.
• You get a personal schedule you build yourself. School features, like Classrin Sync, the Board, clubs, the store, and the school directory, need your school on Classrin and aren't included.
• The service is free and has no ads. If we ever introduce ads, we will update these Terms and our Privacy Policy and give notice before they start.
• Your account isn't managed by or shared with a school. If you later join through your school, it becomes a school account and the school sections of these Terms apply.
• The rest of these Terms, including Acceptable Use and Suspension & Termination, still apply.

4.Accounts & Security

• You are responsible for activity under your account and for keeping your credentials secure.
• Many users sign in through district single sign-on (e.g., ClassLink); you must follow your school's account policies.
• Notify us promptly of any unauthorized access or security concern at Support@classrin.com.

5.Schools, Districts & Data

A. Data ownership

Schools and districts own and control all student data. Classrin acts as a "school official" under FERPA and as a service provider processing data on the school's behalf.

B. Limited data license

You grant Classrin a limited, revocable, non-exclusive license to store, process, display, transmit, and analyze your data solely to provide and improve the Services. We do not acquire any ownership of student records, and we do not sell student data or use it for advertising.

C. Rostering

When a school connects ClassLink or OneRoster, roster data (names, emails, roles, classes, enrollments, and terms) is used only to provide the Services to that school. We don't create accounts from roster data; an account is made when a person first signs in through their school.

D. Data privacy agreements

Where a district requires a Data Privacy Agreement (DPA) or similar contract, that agreement is incorporated by reference and governs student data; if it conflicts with these Terms, the DPA controls for student data.

6.Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

• Breach security, probe, or access systems or data you are not authorized to access
• Interfere with, disrupt, or overload the Services
• Reverse engineer, decompile, copy, or create derivative works of the Services except as permitted by law
• Upload malware or harmful code
• Harass, bully, threaten, impersonate, or harm others, or post unlawful, obscene, or infringing content
• Give a false age or birth date, or place fraudulent store orders
• Use the Services for unauthorized commercial purposes or to scrape or harvest data
• Infringe Classrin's or others' intellectual property or violate any law or school policy

Violations may result in suspension or termination and, where appropriate, referral to the school or authorities.

7.User Content & Moderation

The Services let users post messages, club and board content, profile names, bios, photos, banners, and other materials ("User Content"). You retain your rights in your User Content and grant Classrin a limited license to host, store, display, and transmit it as needed to operate the Services.

You are solely responsible for your User Content and represent that you have the rights to post it. Because Classrin serves students, we may review, moderate, filter, or remove content, and we use AI-assisted and human review to detect harmful, unlawful, or policy-violating material, as described in our Privacy Policy. We are not obligated to monitor all content, and moderation does not guarantee that all objectionable content will be caught or removed. If you think content of yours was flagged by mistake, email Support@classrin.com.

8.Copyright / DMCA

We respect intellectual property rights and respond to valid notices under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. If you believe content on the Services infringes your copyright, send a notice with the required information (identification of the work, the material and its location, your contact information, and a good-faith statement) to our designated agent:

Copyright Agent — Classrin
Email: Support@classrin.com  (subject: "DMCA")

We may remove infringing material and terminate repeat infringers.

9.Intellectual Property

All Classrin branding, interfaces, software, designs, and logos are owned by Classrin and protected by law. Except for the limited license granted here, no rights are transferred to you. Feedback you provide may be used by us without obligation to you.

10.Third-Party Services

The Services integrate with third parties such as ClassLink, Canvas, Clover, Google (AI content moderation, through Lovable's AI gateway), and Apple and Google notification services. Your use of those services is governed by their own terms and privacy policies, and Classrin is not responsible for third-party services or content.

11.Store Orders, Fees & Payments

• The school store is the seller. Stores on Classrin are school stores already operating in your school, such as a student store or booster club. The store is the seller of record and is responsible for its products, menu, prices, tax, allergen and ingredient information, hours, fulfillment, cancellations, and refunds under its own policies. Questions about an item or a refund go to the store.
• What Classrin does. Classrin is not the seller. We provide the ordering and delivery platform and the payment connection: we take the order, show delivery status, and process refunds the store requests.
• Card payments. Online orders are paid by card through Clover, under the store's own Clover merchant account. Card details go directly to Clover; Classrin never sees full card numbers. Clover's terms apply to payment processing.
• Platform fee. Classrin charges a 5% platform fee on the goods in online orders (not on tax), shown before you pay. A full refund returns the fee too.
• Records. Orders and payment records are kept for the store's financial records, including after you delete your account (see Section 16).
• School pricing. School and district pricing is governed by the applicable order or contract. You are responsible for applicable taxes.

12.Disclaimers

THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. We do not warrant that the Services will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure, or that content will always be available or accurate. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain disclaimers, so parts of this section may not apply to you.

13.Limitation of Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, CLASSRIN AND ITS OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AND SUPPLIERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICES.

CLASSRIN'S TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (a) THE AMOUNTS PAID TO CLASSRIN FOR THE SERVICES IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM (FOR SCHOOL OR DISTRICT CONTRACTS) OR (b) US $100 (FOR INDIVIDUAL USERS). Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so parts of this section may not apply to you. Nothing here limits liability that cannot be limited by law.

14.Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Classrin from claims, damages, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your misuse of the Services, your User Content, or your violation of these Terms or applicable law. This section does not apply to U.S. public schools or government entities to the extent prohibited by law.

15.Suspension & Termination

We may suspend or disable accounts if there is a security threat, a violation of these Terms, harmful behavior, or at a school's request. We will notify the affected school or user when reasonably possible, unless prohibited by law, and we will never terminate an entire school account without district notification. You may stop using the Services at any time and delete your account as described in Section 16.

16.Deleting Your Account & Data

• Delete it yourself. In the web app, go to Profile → Account → Delete account; in the iOS or Android app, tap Delete account at the bottom of Profile. Type DELETE to confirm. See our Delete your account page for help.
• What's deleted and kept. Your personal data is deleted. Store orders, payments, and audit records are kept for the store's financial records with your name removed. Details are in Section 18 of our Privacy Policy.
• When it's blocked. Deletion waits while you have a store order in progress, while a store you manage has orders in progress, or if you are your school's only full-access administrator. Platform administrator accounts can't be deleted from the app.
• Schools and parents. Schools may request deletion of their students' data at any time, and parents or guardians may request deletion of their child's data, by emailing Support@classrin.com. We complete these requests within 30 days unless the law requires otherwise.
• End of a school agreement. Student data is deleted or returned per the school's instruction and any DPA.
• Backups. Secure backups may retain residual copies for up to 90 days and are not used operationally before being purged.

17.Dispute Resolution & Arbitration

Please read this section carefully — it affects how disputes are resolved.

Informal resolution first. Before filing a claim, you agree to contact us at Support@classrin.com and try to resolve the dispute informally for at least 30 days.

Binding arbitration. Except as noted below, disputes that cannot be resolved informally will be settled by binding individual arbitration administered under the rules of a recognized arbitration provider, rather than in court. Class actions and class-wide arbitration are waived — disputes are resolved individually.

Carve-outs. Either party may bring claims in small-claims court or seek injunctive relief to protect intellectual property. This section does not apply to U.S. public schools or government entities where arbitration or class-waiver terms are prohibited by law; such entities are governed by their applicable law and venue.

30-day opt-out. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by emailing Support@classrin.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms; opting out will not affect any other part of these Terms.

18.Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of South Carolina, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. Subject to Section 17, the state and federal courts located in Charleston County, South Carolina have exclusive jurisdiction, except where a public entity's own governing law and venue are required.

19.Changes to Terms

We may modify these Terms to improve safety, functionality, or compliance, or to reflect changes in the law. We will update the "Last updated" date and, for material changes, provide reasonable notice. Continued use of the Services after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

20.General

• Entire agreement: these Terms, the Privacy Policy, and any applicable DPA or order form are the entire agreement between you and Classrin.
• Severability: if any provision is unenforceable, the rest remains in effect.
• No waiver: our failure to enforce a right is not a waiver of it.
• Assignment: you may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or asset sale.
• Force majeure: we are not liable for delays or failures caused by events beyond our reasonable control.
• Notices: we may provide notices via the Services or by email.
