Legal

Terms of Use

The rules for guest deck creation, accounts, study content, AI-assisted learning, subscriptions, and responsible use of FlashRemind.

Effective date:

Section 1

Acceptance and account responsibility

These Terms of Use govern your access to FlashRemind. By using the service, creating an account, or starting a guest deck, you agree to these terms and the Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the service.

You must be legally able to agree to these terms or use FlashRemind with authorization from a parent, guardian, school, or organization as applicable. Provide accurate account information, keep credentials confidential, and promptly report suspected unauthorized access. You are responsible for activity performed through your account.

Section 2

Three-creation guest trial

FlashRemind permits a guest to create up to three trial decks before authentication. Guest deck content and the trial count are stored in local browser storage. The allowance applies to the guest experience and may be enforced using browser storage and other reasonable service controls.

After you sign up or sign in successfully in the same browser, FlashRemind attempts to transfer locally available trial decks into your account and show them in Latest decks. Unsynced local data can be lost if site data is cleared, private browsing ends, or you switch browsers or devices. You are responsible for confirming that a transfer completed before removing the local copy.

You may not reset, manipulate, or bypass trial or usage controls to obtain access beyond the offered allowance.

Section 3

The service

FlashRemind provides tools for creating and importing study decks, drafting question sets, reviewing content, tracking learning progress, browsing eligible community material, and using available AI-assisted study features.

Features may be added, changed, limited, or discontinued as the product develops. We may set reasonable technical, storage, AI, trial, or usage limits to protect reliability and make plan access sustainable. We will not promise that every feature, integration, import format, or piece of content will always remain available.

Section 4

Medical education and AI accuracy

FlashRemind is an educational study tool, not a medical service. It does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, prescribing, emergency guidance, or a substitute for qualified professional judgment. Do not use it to make patient-care or other high-stakes clinical decisions.

AI output, imports, community content, explanations, schedules, and editorial labels may contain mistakes, omissions, bias, or outdated information. You must review generated material and verify important facts against current authoritative sources, course requirements, and qualified educators or clinicians.

If you need medical help, contact an appropriate healthcare professional or local emergency service. Do not rely on FlashRemind during an emergency.

Section 5

Your content and permissions

You retain ownership of study content you create or lawfully upload. You grant FlashRemind a limited, worldwide, non-exclusive license to host, copy, process, adapt for technical formatting, and display that content only as needed to operate, secure, support, and improve the service and provide features you request, including sync, import, study, sharing, and AI processing.

You must have the rights and permissions needed for anything you submit. Do not upload material that violates copyright, privacy, confidentiality, contractual, or other rights. Do not submit identifiable patient data, confidential clinical records, or sensitive personal information that is unnecessary for study.

If you choose to publish content, you authorize FlashRemind to make it available to other users through the community experience. Remove private or licensed information before publication. Editorial or Reviewed labels do not transfer responsibility for accuracy away from the author or learner.

Section 6

Acceptable use

You may not use FlashRemind to:

  • break applicable law or infringe intellectual-property, privacy, confidentiality, or other rights;
  • upload malware, probe security, access another account, or attempt unauthorized access to systems or data;
  • disrupt the service, overload infrastructure, automate abusive traffic, or bypass trial, rate, plan, or security controls;
  • harass, exploit, deceive, impersonate, or cause harm to another person;
  • publish illegal, dangerous, hateful, sexually exploitative, or intentionally misleading content;
  • use output as a substitute for professional medical judgment or make automated patient-care decisions; or
  • collect or expose credentials, payment details, patient-identifiable information, or other sensitive data without a lawful and necessary basis.

We may investigate suspected misuse, remove content, limit features, or suspend access when reasonably necessary to protect users, third parties, or the service.

Section 7

Billing and subscriptions

Some features may require a paid subscription. Available plans, prices, included features, taxes, renewal terms, and payment conditions are presented before checkout and may change for future purchases or renewal periods.

Checkout and payment details are handled by a third-party billing provider. By purchasing, you also agree to the provider terms presented during checkout. You authorize the displayed charges and any renewal you affirm at purchase. Manage an eligible subscription through the Billing page or linked customer portal.

Cancellation timing, access after cancellation, and refund eligibility follow the conditions shown at checkout, the billing-provider flow, and applicable law. Contact help@flashremind.com if the Billing page does not resolve an account-specific issue.

Section 8

Privacy and third-party services

The Privacy Policy explains how account data, study content, local guest decks, analytics, cookies, AI inputs, and billing records are handled. By requesting an integration, import, AI response, checkout, or external link, you direct FlashRemind to exchange the information needed for that feature with the relevant provider.

Third-party services have their own terms, availability, and privacy practices. FlashRemind is not responsible for third-party websites or services that it does not control.

Section 9

FlashRemind materials

The FlashRemind service, interface, branding, software, and original materials are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. Except for rights expressly granted in these terms, no ownership is transferred to you.

You may use the service for its intended educational purposes. You may not copy, resell, sublicense, or create a competing service from protected FlashRemind materials unless applicable law allows it or you have written permission. These restrictions do not limit rights granted under an identified open-source license for code released under that license.

Section 10

Availability, disclaimers, and liability

We work to keep FlashRemind useful and available, but the service is provided on an “as available” basis. We do not guarantee uninterrupted access, error-free operation, permanent storage, successful import or sync, exam performance, learning outcomes, or the accuracy of generated or community content.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, FlashRemind is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive losses, or for lost data, study time, opportunities, revenue, or goodwill arising from use of or inability to use the service. Nothing in these terms excludes rights or liability that cannot legally be excluded.

Keep independent copies of content that is important to you, especially before import, migration, account deletion, or clearing browser storage.

Section 11

Suspension, termination, and data

You may stop using FlashRemind at any time and may request account deletion by emailing help@flashremind.com. Subscription cancellation and account deletion are separate actions.

We may limit or suspend access for a material breach of these terms, security risk, unlawful use, nonpayment, or conduct that threatens users or service operation. Where reasonable, we will provide notice or an opportunity to resolve the issue.

Terms that by their nature should continue after use ends—including content permissions needed for prior operation, ownership, payment obligations, disclaimers, and liability limitations—remain effective. Data handling after deletion is described in the Privacy Policy.

Section 12

Changes and contact

We may revise these terms as FlashRemind changes. Updated terms will include a new effective date. For a material change, we may also provide notice through the service or by email when appropriate. Continuing to use the service after revised terms take effect means you accept them.

Questions about these terms can be sent to help@flashremind.com.
