Terms of Service

Effective 2 July 2026 · SoftwareConvene LLC (Indiana, USA)

These Terms of Service ("Terms") are an agreement between you and SoftwareConvene LLC ("SoftwareConvene," "we," "us") governing your use of ClassConvene, TeamConvene, FundCatalyst, and our related websites and apps (the "Service"). Please read them, and our Privacy Policy, carefully. By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms.

1. Accepting these Terms

By creating an account, signing in, or otherwise using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you are accepting on behalf of a school, district, or organization, you represent that you have the authority to bind that entity, and "you" includes that entity.

2. Who may use the Service

• Educators & staff. Accounts for teachers, coaches, administrators, assistants, and other school staff are for adults (18+) acting in a professional or authorized school capacity.
• Students (ages 13 and older). The Service is intended for students who are at least 13 years old. Students do not create their own accounts independently — a teacher or school sets up student access. The teacher or school is responsible for confirming that participating students are 13 or older and for providing any parental notice or obtaining any consent required by their policies or by law.
• If you are under 13, please do not use the Service.

3. Accounts & security

Keep your login credentials confidential and don't share your account. You're responsible for activity under your account. Tell us promptly if you suspect unauthorized use. We may require reasonable security steps to protect accounts and data.

4. Student use & schools

When a teacher or school uses the Service with students:

• The teacher or school accepts these Terms on behalf of their students and is responsible for supervising student use. Students are not asked to sign a contract.
• Students accessing the Service — whether through a generated login or a teacher-provided class code — are shown a short, plain-language notice about using the Service responsibly and how their information is handled.
• The school or teacher controls student data and may export or delete it as described in the Privacy Policy.

5. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• Use the Service to break the law or to harm, harass, or infringe others' rights;
• Upload content you don't have the right to use, or that is unlawful, hateful, or malicious;
• Attempt to access accounts or data that aren't yours, or probe, scan, or breach security;
• Disrupt or overload the Service, or reverse-engineer or copy it except as the law allows;
• Use the Service to build a competing product, or resell it, without our permission.

6. Your content

You (or your school) keep all ownership of the content you put into the Service ("User-Contributed Data"). You grant us only the limited license needed to host, process, back up, and display that content to operate the Service for you. We don't claim ownership of your content and we don't use it to train AI models. You're responsible for the content you provide and for having the rights to use it.

You control what you enter — and you're responsible for it. Please enter only the information a feature actually needs, and avoid entering personal information about students (such as full legal names or other identifying details) beyond what is necessary — our roster tools support pseudonyms for this reason. You are responsible for complying with your school's or district's privacy policies and with applicable law regarding the data you choose to enter. To the extent permitted by law, SoftwareConvene is not responsible for a violation of your school or district policies, or of the law, that results from data you choose to input.

Connecting outside accounts (e.g., Canva)

Some features let an educator or coach connect a personal account from another service — such as Canva — to bring their own designs into the Service. Connecting is optional and you can disconnect at any time. You represent that you have the right to use any content you import, and your use of that outside service remains subject to that provider's own terms and policies (for example, Canva's terms). We access only what you authorize, use it only to provide the feature, and never post to or change your connected account — see the Privacy Policy for details on what we access and store.

7. AI features

Some features use artificial intelligence to assist you (for example, reading a receipt or drafting a summary). AI can make mistakes. Always review AI-generated output before relying on it, especially for anything financial, academic, or official. AI features are a convenience, not professional, legal, financial, or educational advice.

8. Beta service

The Service is currently offered as a beta. That means it is still being developed: features may change, break, or be removed, and occasional downtime or bugs may occur. We provide the beta "as is" to gather feedback and improve. Please don't rely on it as your only copy of important data, and let us know when something goes wrong — the in-app 💬 feedback button is the fastest way.

9. Fees

Beta access is currently provided free of charge. In the future we may offer paid plans; if we do, pricing and payment terms will be presented before you're charged, and any payments will be handled by a third-party processor (such as Stripe).

10. Suspension & termination

You may stop using the Service and close your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate access if these Terms are violated, if needed to protect the Service or its users, or if required by law. On termination we handle data as described in the Privacy Policy.

11. Disclaimers

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure, or that results will be accurate. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain disclaimers, so parts of this section may not apply to you.

12. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, SoftwareConvene and its owners will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost data, revenue, or profits, arising out of or relating to your use of the Service. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Service will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid us for the Service in the twelve months before the claim, or one hundred U.S. dollars ($100). Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.

13. Indemnification

You agree to defend and indemnify SoftwareConvene from claims, damages, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your content, your use of the Service, or your violation of these Terms or of others' rights — to the extent permitted by law and appropriate to your status (for example, public-school users to the extent allowed by applicable law).

14. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Indiana, USA, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. The state and federal courts located in Indiana will have jurisdiction over disputes, unless applicable law requires otherwise.

15. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes we'll update the effective date above and, where appropriate, notify account holders. Continuing to use the Service after changes take effect means you accept the updated Terms.
