Terms of Use

By using Help For Dads (the "site"), you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

1. What the site is

The site provides general legal information and self-help tools to help you organise your own information about a parenting matter. It is not legal advice, it is not a substitute for a lawyer, and using it does not create a lawyer–client relationship. See our Disclaimer.

2. Your responsibilities

• You are responsible for the accuracy of what you enter and for how you use anything you produce.
• You will obtain independent legal advice before relying on any information or document from the site.
• You will confirm current court forms, rules, and deadlines directly with the Court.
• You will use the site lawfully and not misuse it.

3. No warranties

The site is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including as to accuracy, completeness, currency, or fitness for a particular purpose. We do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted or error-free.

4. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Help For Dads and its creators are not liable for any loss or damage (including indirect or consequential loss) arising from your use of, or reliance on, the site or anything produced with it. Nothing in these terms excludes rights or guarantees that cannot lawfully be excluded, including under the Australian Consumer Law; where liability cannot be excluded, it is limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.

5. Your data

The tools store your information locally on your device, not on our servers. You are responsible for backing up and safeguarding your own data and any exported backup files. See our Privacy page.

6. Subscriptions & billing

• The guides are free. Help For Dads Pro is a paid subscription that unlocks the self-help tools. You can subscribe monthly or annually at the prices shown on the Pricing page (in Australian dollars).
• Auto-renewal. Pro is a recurring subscription. It renews automatically at the end of each billing period (monthly or yearly) and your payment method is charged for the next period until you cancel.
• Cancelling. You can cancel at any time from your Account page (via the customer portal). Cancellation stops future renewals; you keep Pro access until the end of the period you have already paid for.
• Refunds. We generally do not offer refunds for the current period once it has started, except where required by law. Nothing here limits your rights under the Australian Consumer Law, including any right to a remedy if a service is not supplied with due care or is not fit for a stated purpose.
• Price changes. We may change subscription prices. We will give reasonable notice before a change affects your renewals; the new price applies from your next renewal after the notice period.
• Payments. Payments are processed by Stripe. We do not receive or store your full card details. See our Privacy page.
• Beta. During the beta period, access may be provided free or at a discount via a promotional code, and features may change or contain errors. We may adjust or end the beta at any time.

7. Intellectual property

The site's content and branding are owned by Help For Dads or its licensors. Documents you generate from your own information are yours to use.

8. External links

The site links to third-party sites (such as fcfcoa.gov.au). We are not responsible for the content or availability of those sites.

9. Changes

We may update the site and these terms from time to time. Continued use means you accept the current terms.

10. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Australia.
