Terms of Use

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of EdMission, including our website, applications, AI-powered features, tools, recommendations, content, and related services (collectively, the “Service”).

The Service is provided by EdMission AI, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“EdMission,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).

By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms and acknowledge our Privacy Policy.

If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Service.

1. Eligibility

EdMission Public Beta is available only in certain countries and regions.

You must meet the minimum age requirement applicable to your country or region of residence. EdMission may use your country or region and date of birth to determine eligibility.

If you do not meet the applicable age requirement or the Public Beta is not available in your country or region, you may be prevented from completing onboarding or accessing student features.

You agree to provide accurate age, location, and account information. If you are a minor where you live, you may make purchases only with permission from your parent or legal guardian.

EdMission may restrict access if we reasonably believe that you do not meet these eligibility requirements.

2. Public Beta

EdMission is currently offered as a Public Beta.

Features, recommendations, availability, interfaces, usage limits, and AI systems may change as the Service is developed and improved. Portions of the Service may contain errors, interruptions, or incomplete functionality.

We do not guarantee that any Beta feature will remain available or become part of a future release.

3. What EdMission Provides

EdMission provides educational information, college-planning tools, student-development tools, AI-generated recommendations, application-related guidance, and related resources.

The Service may help you organize academic and extracurricular information, explore colleges or majors, develop activities, review application materials, brainstorm ideas, analyze documents, and receive personalized recommendations.

EdMission is an informational and planning tool. It is not a college, university, admissions office, testing organization, scholarship provider, or government agency and, unless expressly stated otherwise, is not affiliated with or endorsed by any college or university.

4. No Admissions or Educational Guarantee

College admissions and educational outcomes depend on many factors outside EdMission’s control.

EdMission does not guarantee admission, scholarships, financial aid, academic improvement, improvement in admissions competitiveness, a particular admissions rating, or any other educational or admissions result.

Any recommendation, evaluation, rating, estimate, or analysis is informational guidance, not a promise or guarantee of an outcome.

5. AI-Generated Information

Certain features use artificial intelligence and automated systems.

AI-generated information may be inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, inconsistent, or unsuitable for your circumstances.

You are responsible for reviewing important information and independently verifying matters such as deadlines, application requirements, testing policies, financial aid, scholarships, eligibility rules, and university policies.

If information provided by EdMission conflicts with an official source, the official source should control.

6. Your Decisions and Application Integrity

EdMission is designed to assist your decision-making, not replace it.

You remain responsible for the colleges, activities, programs, application materials, essays, and other choices you make.

You may not use EdMission to:

• fabricate activities, awards, research, employment, leadership, academic results, or other credentials;
• misrepresent your experiences or qualifications;
• impersonate another person;
• create fraudulent application materials;
• submit another person’s work as your own;
• violate academic-integrity requirements; or
• violate the rules of a school, university, application platform, scholarship program, competition, or other institution.

You are responsible for reviewing anything generated or modified with EdMission before submitting it to a third party.

7. Your Account

You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account and for activity conducted through it.

You may not sell, transfer, share, or use accounts to evade restrictions or gain unauthorized access.

We may restrict, suspend, or terminate access if we reasonably believe that an account violates these Terms, presents a security risk, is being used fraudulently or unlawfully, or could harm EdMission, another user, or a third party.

8. Your Content

You may provide profile information, academic information, activities, awards, prompts, chats, essays, resumes, transcripts, documents, questionnaire responses, goals, preferences, and other materials (“User Content”).

You retain ownership of your User Content.

You grant EdMission a non-exclusive, worldwide license to host, store, process, reproduce, transmit, analyze, and use User Content as reasonably necessary to provide, personalize, secure, troubleshoot, evaluate, and improve the Service in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

This license does not transfer ownership of your User Content to EdMission.

9. AI Providers and Third-Party Services

EdMission uses third-party service providers, including providers of artificial intelligence, authentication, cloud infrastructure, databases, file storage, analytics, payment processing, communications, and security.

Depending on the feature, information necessary to process your request may be processed by AI providers including OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic.

EdMission does not intentionally provide identifiable Personal Information to third-party AI providers for the purpose of training their general foundation models.

Third-party services may be governed by their own terms and privacy practices. Additional information is provided in our Privacy Policy.

10. Feedback

If you voluntarily provide suggestions, feature ideas, bug reports, evaluations, or other feedback, you grant EdMission a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free right to use that feedback for lawful business and product-development purposes.

This does not give EdMission ownership of your underlying User Content or Personal Information.

11. EdMission Intellectual Property

Except for User Content, EdMission and its licensors own the Service and its proprietary materials, including software, interfaces, databases, workflows, prompts, recommendation systems, evaluation methods, admissions frameworks, taxonomies, educational materials, graphics, written content, and branding.

You receive a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable right to use the Service for its intended purposes.

Except where applicable law permits otherwise, you may not:

• scrape or systematically extract information from the Service;
• reverse engineer the Service;
• copy substantial portions of the Service;
• sell or sublicense the Service;
• circumvent technical restrictions;
• attempt to discover non-public source code, system prompts, algorithms, or internal systems;
• use the Service for competitive benchmarking, competitive research, or to develop, train, improve, or replicate a competing product or service; or
• systematically test, vary, or manipulate inputs in order to infer, reproduce, or extract EdMission’s non-public recommendation logic, evaluation methods, admissions frameworks, prompts, algorithms, or other proprietary systems.

12. Acceptable Use

You may not use the Service to:

• violate applicable law;
• harm, threaten, harass, or exploit another person;
• distribute malicious software;
• interfere with the Service or its security;
• gain unauthorized access;
• evade security or usage controls;
• infringe intellectual-property or privacy rights;
• facilitate fraud or deception; or
• submit information you do not have the right to provide.

13. Paid Features and Season Pass

EdMission may charge a one-time payment for certain features or usage.

Unless expressly identified as recurring before purchase, EdMission purchases do not automatically renew.

Payments are processed by Stripe or another payment processor identified at checkout.

The current Season Pass may be purchased through June 22, 2027, and access ends June 30, 2027, in Pacific Time. A Season Pass does not provide lifetime or indefinite access.

Refunds

You may request a full refund within 7 days of purchase only if you have not accessed or used any paid features.

Once any paid feature has been accessed or used, the purchase is generally non-refundable, and EdMission does not provide prorated or partial refunds for any unused remainder, except where required by applicable law.

EdMission may provide a refund or other appropriate remedy for:

• duplicate or erroneous charges;
• a technical failure that prevents access to the purchased functionality; or
• another circumstance where applicable law requires a refund or remedy.

EdMission may use recorded paid-feature usage to determine refund eligibility.

A refund, payment reversal, chargeback, or dispute may result in suspension, revocation, or adjustment of the related paid access or usage allowance.

Refund requests may be sent to [email protected].

Nothing in these Terms limits refund, cancellation, withdrawal, chargeback, or other consumer rights that cannot legally be waived.

EdMission may change future pricing at any time. Price changes do not retroactively alter a completed purchase.

14. Referral Program

EdMission may offer a referral program under which an eligible new purchaser receives $10 off the applicable Season Pass price and the referring user may become eligible for a $10 referral reward.

A reward becomes eligible after the referred purchase remains valid for 7 days without a refund, reversal, chargeback, payment dispute, or other disqualifying event.

If a referral qualifies, EdMission issues a $10 partial refund against the referring user’s own Season Pass payment. Stripe returns the refund to the original payment method used for that payment.

Referral rewards are subject to a maximum of six qualified referrals per user and may also be limited by the remaining refundable amount of the referring user’s Season Pass payment.

Self-referrals, referrals through multiple accounts controlled by the same person, duplicate accounts, referrals involving existing purchasers, fraud, abuse, and other attempts to manipulate the referral program are not eligible.

Referral discounts may not be combined with other coupons or promotions.

EdMission may review, hold, disqualify, cancel, or decline referrals that are ineligible, fraudulent, abusive, or otherwise non-qualifying.

If you publicly recommend or promote EdMission using a referral link, you must clearly disclose that you may receive a referral reward.

Referral offers and eligibility requirements may change or be discontinued for future referrals.

15. Changes to the Service

EdMission may add, remove, modify, or discontinue features, interfaces, AI systems, usage limits, service providers, or portions of the Service.

Where required by law, we will provide appropriate notice before changes materially affect existing paid rights or other legally protected interests.

16. Account and Data Deletion

You may delete your EdMission account through the Service.

When an account deletion request is successfully processed, applicable account-linked Personal Information is deleted from active systems in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

Routine backups may retain deleted information temporarily until the applicable backup expires.

Limited information may be retained where reasonably necessary for accounting, tax, fraud prevention, legal compliance, refunds, disputes, security, or legal claims.

Deleting an account does not itself create a right to a refund.

17. Disclaimer of Warranties

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Service is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis.

EdMission does not warrant that the Service will always be available, uninterrupted, error-free, accurate, current, or suitable for every individual educational need.

Nothing in these Terms excludes rights or warranties that cannot lawfully be excluded.

18. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, EdMission AI, Inc. and its directors, officers, employees, contractors, affiliates, and service providers will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages arising from or relating to the Service.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, EdMission’s total aggregate liability arising from or relating to the Service will not exceed the greater of:

(a) the amount you paid directly to EdMission during the 12 months preceding the event giving rise to the claim; or

(b) US $100.

These limitations do not apply where liability cannot legally be excluded or limited.

19. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms as the Service, our technology, business model, or legal requirements change.

If a change materially affects your rights or obligations, we will provide notice or obtain renewed consent where required by law.

20. Governing Law and International Users

Except where mandatory laws of your place of residence provide otherwise, these Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, United States, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

Where applicable law permits the parties to choose a forum, state and federal courts located in Orange County, California will have jurisdiction.

If mandatory consumer-protection laws where you live give you rights under local law or in local courts, nothing in these Terms removes those rights.

These Terms do not require arbitration.

EdMission is operated from the United States and may be available in multiple countries. You are responsible for complying with applicable local laws.

21. General

If any provision of these Terms is invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in effect to the extent permitted by law.

Failure to immediately enforce a provision does not waive our right to enforce it later.

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any additional terms presented for a particular purchase or feature, constitute the agreement between you and EdMission concerning the Service.
