Terms of Service

Effective October 15, 2026

These Terms govern your use of Daycare Handbook and Contract Builder (the "Service"), operated by F&S VENTURES LLC, a Minnesota limited liability company ("we", "us"). By creating an account or using the Service you agree to them.

What the Service is, and is not

Daycare Handbook and Contract Builder is document-assembly software, not a law firm. It is not a substitute for the advice of an attorney. It is not affiliated with or approved by any state licensing agency. Rule citations show which licensing rule a section relates to, as checked on the date shown; they are not a statement that your documents meet that rule. Your licensing agency decides that, and an attorney can advise you.

You choose every policy and every word in your documents. The wording options we provide are general text written by us, not advice for your situation. You are responsible for reading your documents, for what they say and for following the rules that apply to your program. We do not review your documents for you and we do not act as your lawyer, adviser or agent.

Accounts

You must be at least 18 and authorised to run the program you enter. Keep your login secure; you are responsible for activity under your account. The Service is not available to users in North Carolina or for programs located there.

Plans, billing and renewal

The Free plan costs nothing and is limited as described on the pricing page. The Provider Pack costs $49 US per year, charged by card through Stripe when you subscribe and again at each yearly renewal. It renews automatically for another year until you cancel. We may change prices for a future renewal and will tell you by email before it applies. Taxes, if any apply, are your responsibility.

Cancellation

You can cancel at any time from the billing page. Cancelling stops the next renewal. You keep Provider Pack features until the end of the year already paid for, then return to the Free plan. On the Free plan you keep read access to everything you made and to every signature.

Refunds

If you ask within 14 days of a charge, including a renewal, and have not sent more than one signature request on that plan year, we will refund it in full. After that we do not provide prorated refunds for partial years, except where the law requires one. A refund ends the Provider Pack and returns your account to the Free plan. Email hello@homedaycarecontract.com to ask.

Acceptable use

Do not use the Service to break the law, to enter information it is not meant to hold (children's health information, birth dates, Social Security numbers, photos, custody papers), to send signature requests to people who are not the parents or guardians of a child in your care, to attack or overload the Service, or to resell it. We may suspend an account that does.

Electronic signatures

A parent signs by agreeing to use electronic records and typing their name. We record the details described in the Privacy Policy and add a certificate to the signed document. We provide the tool; whether an electronic signature is accepted for a particular purpose is a question for your own advisers.

Your content

You own the documents and details you enter. You give us permission to store, process and display them to provide the Service, including sending them to the parents you choose. We do not use them to train any model or share them beyond the processors in the Privacy Policy.

Availability and changes

We work to keep the Service running but do not promise it will be uninterrupted or error free. We may change or end features; if we end the Service we will give notice and a way to export your documents. Rule packs and wording are updated from time to time; a document you published does not change unless you publish a new version.

Disclaimer of warranties

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available". To the fullest extent the law allows, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose and that your documents will satisfy any rule, licensing agency or court.

Limit of liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, our total liability for any claim relating to the Service is limited to the fees you paid us in the 12 months before the claim arose, and we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages, lost profits or lost business. Some places do not allow these limits, so they may not apply to you in full.

Ending your account

You can delete your account at any time from the account page. We may suspend or end an account that breaks these Terms.

Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Minnesota, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Courts located in Minnesota have exclusive jurisdiction, unless the law where you live gives you the right to bring a claim elsewhere.

Changes to these Terms; contact

If we change these Terms in a way that matters we will update the date above and notify account holders by email. Questions: hello@homedaycarecontract.com. F&S VENTURES LLC, Minnesota, USA.
