Terms of Use

1. Agreement to these terms

These Terms of Use (the “Terms”) are a binding agreement between you and RDW LLC, a Kentucky limited liability company (“RDW,” “Daylark,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). They govern your access to and use of the Daylark website, state-specific guide packages, skills, instructions, templates, onboarding, updates, and related materials and services (collectively, the “Service”).

By purchasing, installing, accessing, or using the Service, you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not purchase or use the Service.

You must be at least 18 years old and legally able to enter into this agreement. If you use Daylark for a child, you represent that you are the child’s parent, legal guardian, or an adult with lawful authority to manage the child’s homeschool information.

2. What Daylark is

Daylark is a parent-directed homeschool planning, guidance, organization, progress-tracking, and recordkeeping product. Depending on the package you purchase, Daylark may help you:

• build and maintain a homeschool plan;
• organize curriculum and learning resources;
• turn natural-language descriptions, photos, or audio into draft learning records;
• track attendance, progress, documents, and milestones; and
• understand a source-linked summary of the homeschool framework for your selected state.

Daylark is not a public or private school, accredited institution, school of record, attorney, law firm, government agency, tax advisor, medical provider, therapist, evaluator, or emergency service. We do not issue diplomas, grant credit, establish legal compliance, or guarantee that any record will be accepted by a school district, college, athletic association, court, agency, or other third party.

3. Your responsibility as the parent or guardian

You remain responsible for selecting and supervising your homeschool program, reviewing Daylark’s suggestions and AI-assisted output, checking the accuracy of records, maintaining required documentation, meeting deadlines, and complying with applicable state and local law.

State laws, agency practices, and official guidance can change. Daylark’s state materials are educational summaries designed to help you act with confidence, but they may become incomplete, outdated, or incorrect. Always review linked official sources before relying on a requirement, filing a document, or making a high-stakes decision. Consult a qualified attorney or other professional when legal advice is needed.

4. ChatGPT, Notion, and other third-party services

Daylark is designed to operate through third-party platforms, including ChatGPT and Notion. You must obtain and maintain your own eligible accounts, internet access, devices, and any paid third-party plans required for the features you choose to use.

Your use of those platforms is governed by their own agreements and privacy practices, including the OpenAI Terms of Use, OpenAI Privacy Policy, and Notion Privacy Policy. RDW does not control those services and is not responsible for their availability, security, changes, outputs, data practices, account decisions, or fees.

Connecting a third-party service or enabling a plugin, app, action, integration, or shared workspace may cause information to be sent to that provider or to people you authorize. Review permissions carefully and connect only services and collaborators you trust.

5. AI-assisted output

Daylark uses artificial intelligence features supplied through third-party platforms. AI output can be incomplete, inaccurate, outdated, biased, unsuitable, or similar to content generated for other users. It may misunderstand a photo, audio description, worksheet, legal source, or learning activity.

You must review output before using it with a child, saving it as an official record, sharing it, or relying on it for legal compliance, health, safety, special education, admissions, testing, or financial decisions. Daylark does not guarantee a particular learning outcome, legal result, academic result, or acceptance by a third party.

6. Family content and privacy

“Family Content” means the information, records, names, notes, photos, audio, files, schoolwork, prompts, and other material you provide or create while using Daylark. You retain your rights in your Family Content. You are responsible for ensuring that you have the right and authority to submit it.

Most Family Content is entered directly into third-party platforms you control, such as ChatGPT and Notion. Their terms determine the rights and licenses associated with content stored or processed there. RDW does not claim ownership of your Family Content merely because you used Daylark to organize it.

Use good judgment when recording information about a child. Avoid submitting Social Security numbers, financial account information, medical records, precise location, government identifiers, or other highly sensitive data unless it is truly necessary and you understand the destination platform’s privacy settings.

7. License and household use

Subject to these Terms and payment of the applicable fee, RDW grants you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the purchased Daylark package for personal, non-commercial homeschool use within your household.

You may make reasonable backup copies of materials provided for your use. You may not resell, sublicense, publish, distribute, share access outside your household, remove proprietary notices, reverse engineer, extract protected instructions, or use Daylark materials to create or train a competing product or service, except where applicable law expressly permits it.

Daylark, its brand, guides, skill packages, instructions, templates, designs, site content, and original materials are owned by RDW or its licensors and are protected by intellectual-property law.

8. Purchases, lifetime core access, and premium services

Prices, included features, taxes, and any additional purchase terms are shown at checkout. Payment may be processed by a third-party payment provider under that provider’s terms and privacy policy.

A purchase described as “lifetime access” means access to the purchased version of Daylark core without a recurring core fee for as long as RDW continues to make that core product available. It does not mean the lifetime of the purchaser, guarantee perpetual operation of any third-party platform, or require RDW to provide every future feature, extension pack, state-law update, premium service, or compatibility update without charge.

Unless a different policy is displayed at checkout, digital purchases are non-refundable after delivery or access is provided, except where required by law. Optional premium subscriptions, extension packs, communities, and update services may have separate pricing, renewal, cancellation, and refund terms presented before purchase.

9. Acceptable use

You agree not to misuse the Service. In particular, you may not:

• use it unlawfully or to harm, exploit, groom, harass, threaten, or endanger a child or any other person;
• submit content that is illegal, infringing, abusive, deceptive, or sexually exploitative;
• attempt to bypass access controls, payment requirements, safety systems, or technical limits;
• interfere with the Service or another user’s accounts, records, privacy, or devices;
• misrepresent AI-generated material as independently verified legal, medical, or professional advice; or
• use the Service to create fraudulent attendance, grades, transcripts, records, filings, or credentials.

10. Updates, availability, and termination

We may update, improve, replace, suspend, or discontinue portions of the Service. We may also revise state materials when laws or official guidance change. We do not guarantee uninterrupted availability, compatibility with every version of ChatGPT or Notion, permanent storage by a third party, or continued availability of a particular AI model, plugin, integration, feature, or source.

We may suspend or terminate your access if you materially violate these Terms, misuse the Service, infringe rights, create a safety or security risk, or fail to pay an amount due. You may stop using Daylark at any time. Before disconnecting or deleting third-party accounts, export any records you wish to retain.

11. Disclaimers

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. RDW DISCLAIMS IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, AND AVAILABILITY.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain warranty exclusions, so some of these exclusions may not apply to you.

12. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, RDW AND ITS MEMBERS, MANAGERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, AFFILIATES, AND LICENSORS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOSS OF DATA, RECORDS, PROFITS, REVENUE, GOODWILL, OR EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITY, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, RDW’S TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF $100 OR THE AMOUNT YOU PAID RDW FOR THE SERVICE GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM DURING THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY.

These limitations do not apply where prohibited by law.

13. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless RDW and its members, managers, employees, contractors, affiliates, and licensors from claims, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from your misuse of the Service, your Family Content, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of another person’s rights.

14. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Kentucky, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute that cannot be resolved informally will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Jefferson County, Kentucky, and each party consents to their jurisdiction and venue.

Before filing a claim, the parties agree to make a good-faith effort to resolve the dispute informally by written notice and at least 30 days of discussion. Nothing in this section prevents either party from seeking emergency injunctive relief when appropriate.

15. General terms

If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our written consent; RDW may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets. These Terms, the Privacy Policy, and purchase-specific terms shown at checkout form the entire agreement concerning the Service.

We may update these Terms as Daylark evolves. The “Effective” date will show when the current version took effect. If a change materially affects your rights, we will provide notice as required by law. Continued use after the effective date of updated Terms constitutes acceptance where permitted by law.
