IEPDesk Terms of Service

Effective date: 2026-05-15 · Last updated: 2026-05-15

1. Acceptance of these terms

By downloading or using IEPDesk (the "App"), you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the App. The App is published by an independent iOS developer (Apple Developer Team ID ZM8LF8494F); references to "we," "us," and "our" mean that developer.

2. What IEPDesk is — and is not

IEPDesk is a personal records organizer for parents and legal guardians of children with Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) under IDEA, with Section 504 plans, or with related special education accommodations. You enter information about services your child's school has agreed to provide; the App helps you organize that information, track service delivery against the written plan, and generate PDF reports for your own use, including reports you may share with an advocate or attorney.

IEPDesk is not legal advice, special-education advice, or a substitute for an attorney or advocate. We do not represent you. We do not communicate with any school, district, state education agency, or court on your behalf. The Manifestation Determination 10-day threshold alert is a heuristic based on commonly cited federal trigger points; the precise legal trigger varies by state and individual circumstance. All values, dates, service minutes, goal progress entries, and notes are entered, edited, and interpreted by you. For binding legal counsel about your child's rights under IDEA, Section 504, or applicable state law, consult a qualified special education attorney or advocate.

3. Subscriptions and the Pro tier

3.1 Free tier

The App is free to download and use with the following limits: 1 child, 1 active IEP or 504 document, up to 5 promises tracked, 30 days of service-log entries, basic timeline view, and no PDF export. The free tier also includes annual review and triennial reevaluation reminders, the Recently Deleted 30-day recovery window, and a plain-text Markdown export of your records.

3.2 Pro subscription

Pro features unlock when you start a Pro subscription. Two products are offered:

Both products unlock the same set of Pro features. Prices shown are USD; Apple displays the equivalent local price at purchase time.

3.3 Auto-renewal and billing

Subscriptions automatically renew until canceled. Renewal is charged within 24 hours before the end of the current period unless auto-renewal is turned off at least 24 hours before that end. Payment is charged to your Apple ID. You can manage and cancel your subscription in Settings > [your name] > Subscriptions on your iOS device. Refunds for the unused portion of an active period are not offered by IEPDesk; refund eligibility is determined solely by Apple under its published policies.

3.4 Free trial forfeiture

If you start a free trial and cancel during the trial, you keep Pro access through the end of the trial period and are not charged. If you do not cancel, your subscription begins at the end of the trial at the published price.

3.5 Where your records live

IEPDesk stores your records locally on your iOS device using Apple's SwiftData framework. The App does not sync to iCloud, to our servers, or to anywhere else. Your archive is included automatically in your standard iOS device backup (iCloud Backup or Finder/iTunes backup) when device backup is enabled, so restoring to a new iPhone restores your IEPDesk records along with everything else. You may export a portable JSON copy at any time from Settings > Data > Backup and restore.

4. Pro features

Pro provides the following features. The behavior described here is binding on us — if a future App update materially changes any of these descriptions, we will revise this section.

5. Your responsibilities

6. Disclaimers and limitation of liability

The App is provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, or non-infringement. To the maximum extent permitted by law, our aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the App is limited to the amount you paid us, through Apple, for the App in the twelve months preceding the claim. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including lost data, lost legal claims, or denied special-education services. Reports generated by the App are tools for your use; we do not guarantee that any school district, advocate, attorney, court, or hearing officer will accept them.

7. Apple End User License Agreement

Your use of the App is also governed by Apple's standard End User License Agreement (EULA) for licensed applications, available at https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/. In the event of a conflict between these Terms and the Apple EULA, these Terms govern as between you and us; the Apple EULA governs as between you and Apple.

8. Changes to these terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be surfaced in the App on next launch. Continued use of the App after a change constitutes acceptance.

9. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States and the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Disputes will be resolved in courts located in California, except that either party may seek injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to protect intellectual property rights.
