Terms of Service

Effective Date: August 19, 2026

These Terms of Service (the "Terms") are a binding agreement between Clear Education LLC ("Clear Education," "we," "us," or "our") and the school district, educational agency, organization, or individual ("you," "your," or "Customer") accessing or using the Board2Classroom platform, websites, and related services (collectively, the "Service"). By accessing or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you are entering into these Terms on behalf of a school district or other organization, you represent that you have the authority to bind that organization.

1. The Service

Board2Classroom is a software-as-a-service platform for K-12 strategic planning, school improvement planning, goal alignment, progress monitoring, and related tools. The Service operates on system-level inputs such as district goals, plans, strategies, and aggregate measures. The Service is designed for use by district and building administrators, educators, and authorized staff, and is not directed to children.

2. Accounts and Access

• Accounts are provisioned by your district or by Clear Education at your district's direction. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your credentials and for all activity under your account.

• You must notify us promptly at [email protected] if you suspect unauthorized access to your account.

• Your district's administrators control which users have access to the Service and at what permission level, and may suspend or remove users at any time.

• You may not share credentials, sell or transfer access, or use another person's account without authorization.

3. Subscriptions, Fees, and Payment

• Access to the Service is provided under a subscription. Fees, subscription term, and renewal terms are set out in your order form, invoice, or service agreement.

• Unless otherwise agreed in writing, invoices are due within the payment window stated on the invoice, and late amounts may result in suspension of access after reasonable notice.

• Fees are exclusive of taxes. Public-entity customers that are tax exempt should provide documentation of exemption.

• Where your agreement provides for renewal, we will provide notice of any fee changes before the renewal takes effect.

4. Acceptable Use

You agree not to, and not to permit any user to:

• Use the Service in violation of applicable law, including education privacy laws described in Section 7;

• Upload content that is unlawful, infringing, or that you do not have the right to share;

• Probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of the Service, circumvent authentication, or access data not intended for you;

• Interfere with or disrupt the Service, including by transmitting malware or generating abusive load;

• Reverse engineer, decompile, or copy the Service, or access it to build a competing product;

• Scrape, harvest, or bulk-export data from the Service except through features we provide for that purpose;

• Use the Service to send unsolicited commercial communications.

We may suspend access where we reasonably believe continued use presents a security risk, violates law, or materially breaches these Terms. Where practicable, we will notify your district's administrator and work to restore access promptly once the issue is resolved.

5. Customer Data

"Customer Data" means all data, documents, and content that you or your users submit to the Service, including plans, goals, meeting notes, survey responses, and uploaded files.

• You own your data. As between the parties, Customer (or the applicable district) retains all right, title, and interest in Customer Data.

• Our license is limited. You grant us a limited license to host, process, transmit, and display Customer Data solely to provide, secure, and support the Service, and as otherwise required by law.

• No sale of data. We do not sell Customer Data and we do not use it for targeted advertising.

• Aggregate data. We may use de-identified, aggregated data that cannot reasonably be used to identify any individual or district to operate, evaluate, and improve the Service.

• Export and return. During your subscription you may export Customer Data using the features of the Service. Upon written request within 60 days after termination, we will make Customer Data available for export in a commonly used format, after which we will delete it in the ordinary course of our backup cycles, except where retention is required by law.

6. AI Features

The Service includes features that use artificial intelligence, such as forecasting, alignment analysis, drafting assistance, and meeting transcription (collectively, "AI Features"). With respect to AI Features:

• AI-generated output is provided to support, not replace, professional judgment. You are responsible for reviewing AI output before relying on it or acting on it.

• AI output may contain errors or omissions and is not a guarantee of educational outcomes.

• We do not permit our AI service providers to use Customer Data to train generalized AI models.

• Uploaded documents processed by AI Features are subject to the personally identifiable information safeguards described in our Privacy Policy.

7. Student Data and Education Privacy Laws

The Service is designed to operate from system-level inputs and does not require personally identifiable information about students ("Student Data") to function. Districts should not upload Student Data except where a feature expressly supports it and the district has determined the use is consistent with its own policies and applicable law.

If and to the extent Student Data is provided to the Service, the following applies:

• FERPA. We will act as a "school official" with a legitimate educational interest under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (20 U.S.C. § 1232g) and its regulations, will use Student Data solely to provide the Service at the district's direction, will remain under the district's direct control with respect to the use and maintenance of education records, and will not re-disclose Student Data except as permitted by the district or required by law.

• COPPA. The Service does not permit accounts for children under 13. If a feature ever collects personal information from students under 13, we rely on the school's consent, obtained on behalf of parents, solely for educational purposes as permitted by the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act.

• PPRA. Districts are responsible for ensuring that any surveys administered through the Service comply with the Protection of Pupil Rights Amendment where applicable.

• State student privacy laws. We will comply with applicable state student data privacy laws (such as SOPIPA-style statutes) and will not use Student Data for targeted advertising, sell Student Data, or build profiles of students for non-educational purposes.

• Data Privacy Agreements. Upon request, we will enter into a mutually agreeable student data privacy agreement (including state-specific DPA forms) with the district.

• Deletion. We will delete Student Data at the district's written request within a commercially reasonable period, except where retention is required by law.

8. Intellectual Property

The Service, including its software, design, templates, and documentation, is owned by Clear Education and its licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws. Except for the limited access rights granted in these Terms, no rights in the Service are transferred to you. Feedback you provide about the Service may be used by us without restriction or obligation, provided it is not identified as originating from you or your district.

9. Third-Party Services

The Service relies on third-party hosting and service providers (subprocessors) to operate, as described in our Privacy Policy. The Service may also link to third-party websites or resources. We are not responsible for third-party content or services that we do not control.

10. Confidentiality

Each party will protect the other party's non-public information with at least the same degree of care it uses for its own confidential information, and no less than reasonable care, and will use it only to perform under these Terms. This obligation does not apply to information that is public through no fault of the receiving party, independently developed, or lawfully received from a third party. Public-entity customers may be subject to public records laws; nothing in these Terms prevents a party from making disclosures required by law.

11. Warranties and Disclaimers

We warrant that we will provide the Service with commercially reasonable skill and care. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY STATED IN THESE TERMS OR YOUR SERVICE AGREEMENT, THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," AND WE DISCLAIM ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT AI OUTPUT WILL BE ACCURATE OR COMPLETE.

12. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NEITHER PARTY WILL BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS OR LOST DATA, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY. EXCEPT FOR A PARTY'S INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS, BREACH OF CONFIDENTIALITY, OR AMOUNTS OWED, EACH PARTY'S TOTAL LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE FEES PAID OR PAYABLE BY CUSTOMER FOR THE SERVICE IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law, and nothing requires a public-entity customer to indemnify us where prohibited by state law.

13. Indemnification

We will defend and indemnify you against third-party claims alleging that the Service, as provided by us and used as permitted, infringes a third party's intellectual property rights, and will pay resulting damages finally awarded, provided you promptly notify us and allow us to control the defense. To the extent permitted by applicable law, you will defend and indemnify us against third-party claims arising from Customer Data or your use of the Service in violation of law or these Terms.

14. Term, Suspension, and Termination

• These Terms apply for as long as you use the Service or hold an active subscription.

• Either party may terminate for material breach that remains uncured 30 days after written notice.

• Upon termination, your right to access the Service ends, and data export and deletion are handled as described in Section 5.

• Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including data return, confidentiality, disclaimers, and limitations of liability) survive.

15. Changes to the Service and to These Terms

We continuously improve the Service and may add, change, or remove features, provided we do not materially reduce the core functionality of the Service during your subscription term. We may update these Terms from time to time. For material changes, we will provide notice through the Service or by email before the changes take effect. Continued use of the Service after the effective date of updated Terms constitutes acceptance. If your district has a signed agreement, changes to these Terms do not modify that agreement.

16. Copyright Complaints (DMCA)

If you believe content on the Service infringes your copyright, send a notice meeting the requirements of 17 U.S.C. § 512 to our designated agent at [email protected] with the subject line "DMCA Notice." We will respond to valid notices, which may include removing or disabling access to the identified material.

17. General

• Governing law. These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of [State], without regard to conflict-of-law rules, except that public-entity customers may be entitled to the governing law and venue of their own state under applicable law.

• Notices. Legal notices to us must be sent to [email protected]. Notices to you may be provided through the Service or to your district's administrative contact.

• Force majeure. Neither party is liable for delay or failure caused by events beyond its reasonable control.

• Assignment. Neither party may assign these Terms without the other's consent, except to a successor in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of substantially all assets.

• Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any signed service agreement, are the entire agreement regarding the Service and supersede prior proposals and understandings on that subject.

• Severability and waiver. If a provision is unenforceable, the remainder stays in effect. A failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver.
