Terms of Service

Effective: April 6, 2026 · Document Type: Binding Legal Agreement

1. Acceptance of Terms

By creating an account on AfterSchoolTracker.com (“Platform”), you (“Parent” or “Guardian”) agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (“Terms”). If you do not agree, you may not use the Platform. These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and Squintingfish Labs LLC, the operator of the Platform (“Company,” “we,” “us”).

Schools and program operators (“Schools”) and their staff are governed by the services agreement between the School and the Company, not by these Terms. These Terms govern use of the Platform by parents, guardians, and their families.

2. Description of Services

AfterSchoolTracker.com provides:

  • Afterschool drop-in child care time tracking and billing
  • Registration and payment processing for lessons, tutoring sessions, and enrichment classes
  • Camp registration and payment management
  • 6-digit PIN-based child sign-in and sign-out tracking
  • Automated billing and Stripe-based payment processing
  • Parent portal for account management and history

The Platform is a software service. Your child's school or program operator, not the Company, provides the care, classes, and programs themselves and is solely responsible for their delivery, supervision, and quality.

3. Eligibility and Account Creation

You must be at least 18 years of age and a parent, legal guardian, or authorized representative of the child(ren) enrolled in services. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and PIN. You must provide accurate, current, and complete information.

4. PIN-Based Electronic Sign-In System

The 6-digit PIN you create for your account serves as your electronic signature for the purposes of child check-in and check-out. Each PIN entry constitutes your authorization to record attendance and your agreement that billing will commence or conclude at that time. You accept full financial responsibility for all sessions initiated or confirmed by your PIN.

You must not share your PIN with unauthorized individuals. You are responsible for all activity conducted under your PIN. Report lost or compromised PINs immediately to info@afterschooltracker.com.

5. Payment Terms and Billing

Payments you make through the Platform are made to your child's school, which is the merchant of record for its own charges. By providing payment information, you authorize your school to charge your payment method on file, through the Platform, for all services rendered, including:

  • Drop-in care billed by the minute or hour as disclosed at time of service
  • Lesson, tutor, and enrichment class fees as listed at time of registration
  • Camp fees per the camp registration agreement
  • Late pickup fees as posted by your school

Prices shown on the Platform include all mandatory fees: the amount displayed at registration or on your invoice is the amount you are charged, with no additional required fees added at payment.

All payments are processed via Stripe on your school's behalf. Neither the Company nor your school stores your full payment card or bank account data; Stripe holds it. By using the Platform, you agree to Stripe’s Terms of Service available at stripe.com/legal.

6. Refund and Cancellation Policy

Refunds, credits, and cancellations are determined by your school's posted policies, disclosed at time of registration or at your school's front office. Refunds and account credits are issued by your school and recorded on the Platform; contact your school directly to request one. Drop-in care charges are non-refundable once a session has commenced unless your school's policy provides otherwise. Your school may cancel or modify programs with reasonable notice.

7. Acceptable Use of the Platform

You agree that you are entirely responsible for your conduct, the content you upload, and your interactions with the Platform. You agree not to do, or attempt to do, any of the following:

  • No disruption or probing: intercept, decipher, or compromise any transmissions to or from the Platform servers, or bypass any security measures, access controls, or geofences we have put in place.
  • No scraping or automation: use any robot, spider, scraper, or other automated means to access the Platform or extract data, or copy, modify, or reverse-engineer any part of our software or code.
  • No malicious content: upload, submit, or transmit any data or files that contain viruses, Trojan horses, worms, time bombs, or any other malicious or harmful software.
  • No misrepresentation: impersonate any person or entity, forge headers, or otherwise disguise your identity or your authority to act on behalf of a student or minor.
  • No abuse or harassment: use any messaging, comment, or communication feature within the Platform to upload or transmit content that is unlawful, abusive, harassing, defamatory, threatening, or harmful to school staff, other families, or minors.

Suspension and termination. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion and without prior notice, to immediately suspend or terminate your account and block your access to the Platform if we believe you have violated this Acceptable Use Policy or if your actions pose a security risk to the Service.

8. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall Squintingfish Labs LLC (or its licensors, providers, or suppliers) be liable for any indirect, punitive, incidental, special, consequential, or exemplary damages, including without limitation damages for loss of profits, goodwill, use, data, or other intangible losses, arising out of or relating to the use of, or inability to use, the Service.

Under no circumstances will the Company be responsible for any damage, loss, or injury resulting from hacking, tampering, or other unauthorized access or use of the Service or your account.

Our maximum liability to you for any claims arising out of or in connection with these Terms or your use of the Platform shall not exceed fifty dollars ($50.00).

You acknowledge and agree that payments made through the Platform are paid directly to the school as the merchant of record, and the Company is a software provider, not a party to your transaction or a licensed childcare operator.

9. State-Specific Provisions

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, including, where applicable, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA). Your school remains responsible for complying with the child care and program licensing regulations that apply to it in its own state; the Company is a software provider and is not a licensed child care operator.

10. Modification of Terms

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. Material changes will be communicated by email to the address on your account at least 30 days prior to taking effect. Continued use of the Platform after the effective date constitutes acceptance.

11. Dispute Resolution

Any dispute shall be resolved by binding arbitration in San Francisco County, California under AAA Consumer Rules, except either party may seek injunctive relief in court. California residents retain all rights under California law including the right to opt out of arbitration within 30 days of account creation by emailing info@afterschooltracker.com.
