Terms & Conditions

1. Acceptance of these terms

In short: Using our website or app means you agree to these terms and our Privacy Policy.

These Terms & Conditions are an agreement between you and Anshu Verma (sole proprietor, trading as “LearnPlayBond”) ("LearnPlayBond", "we", "us"), based in India. By accessing learnplaybond.com or using the Circl by LearnPlayBond app (together, the "Services"), you accept these terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Services.

2. Who may use our services

In short: Adults only (18+). You use the Services for your own family, and you vouch for the child and pregnancy information you add.

You must be at least 18 years old and capable of entering a binding contract to create an account. The Services are designed for parents, guardians and caregivers — children are not permitted to use them. When you add information about a child or invite family members, you confirm that you are the child's parent or lawful guardian (or act with their authority), and that the information you provide is accurate and yours to share. Consent for processing a child's data is covered in our Privacy Policy.

3. What we provide

In short: Parenting programs and activity tools on the website; and Circl — a family companion app with logging, guidance and an AI Coach.

The Services include: learning programs, cohorts and downloadable activities offered on learnplaybond.com; an AI-assisted activity generator; and the Circl app — a private space for your family circle to track your child's or pregnancy's day-to-day, receive stage-appropriate guidance, and consult an AI Coach with optional escalation to credentialed human experts. Features may differ between platforms and evolve over time (Section 12).

4. Your account

In short: Sign in with Google, keep your account to yourself, tell us if something's off.

You sign in with a Google account. You are responsible for activity on your account and for keeping access to it secure. One account per person; you may not share an account or impersonate anyone. Family circles are for your real family and caregivers. Notify us promptly at [email protected] if you suspect unauthorized access.

5. Purchases, pricing and refunds

In short: One-time payments in INR via Razorpay. Prices are shown before you pay. Refunds up to 7 days from purchase — or until your cohort starts, whichever comes first.

Paid offerings (such as programs and cohorts) are one-time purchases, priced in Indian Rupees and processed by Razorpay — we never receive your card, UPI or banking details. The price, and any promotional or referral discount, is shown before you confirm payment. Applicable taxes are included unless stated otherwise. We currently offer no auto-renewing subscriptions; if we introduce them, we will present their terms clearly before you subscribe.

Refunds: Refunds are honored up to 7 days from the day of purchase, or until the cohort's start date, whichever comes earlier. Where a refund is issued, it is returned through Razorpay to your original payment method. Nothing in these terms limits your non-waivable rights under Indian consumer protection law.

6. The AI Coach — important limits

In short: You're talking to an AI. It can be wrong, incomplete or generic. Use your judgment, and treat human professionals — not the Coach — as the authority on your child.

The Coach is powered by artificial intelligence (large language models). By its nature:

• Its responses are generated, not verified facts — they can be inaccurate, incomplete, or not right for your specific child, and you should not rely on them as professional advice of any kind.
• It is designed with guardrails: it does not diagnose conditions and does not provide medication or supplement dosages. If it appears to do either, treat that as an error and disregard it.
• Messages that suggest an emergency will surface local emergency guidance — but the Coach is not an emergency service. If your child may be in danger, contact local emergency services immediately.
• "Ask a real person" escalations are answered by credentialed human experts on an asynchronous basis — they are guidance, not a consultation, diagnosis or treatment, and no professional–client relationship is created.
• Every Coach reply includes a disclosure of the context used to produce it, so you can judge it in full view of what it did — and did not — know.

7. Not medical advice

In short: Nothing here is medical advice. Your paediatrician or doctor always outranks our content and our AI.

The Services — including the Coach, human-expert responses, programs, activities and all other content — do not provide medical, psychological, legal or other professional advice, and are not a substitute for professional diagnosis, treatment or care. Always seek the advice of your paediatrician, obstetrician or other qualified provider with any questions about your child's or your own health, and never disregard or delay professional advice because of something you read or received in the Services. If you believe you or your child has a medical emergency, call your local emergency number immediately.

8. Your content

In short: Your logs, notes and messages are yours. We get only the permission needed to operate the service for you — and for community-shared techniques, to show them to others after review.

You retain all rights to the content you add — observations, notes, profiles, messages and saved techniques ("Your Content"). You grant us a limited, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, process, transmit and display Your Content solely to operate, secure and improve the Services for you and your family circle, consistent with our Privacy Policy. If you submit a technique for the community, you additionally license us to review, edit for clarity and display it to other users; you can request its removal at any time. You are responsible for Your Content and must have the right to share what you add — including information about family members.

9. Acceptable use

In short: Use it for your family. No abuse, no scraping, no breaking in, no reselling.

You agree not to:

• use the Services unlawfully, or to harm, harass or deceive anyone;
• upload content that is illegal, infringing, or endangers a child;
• attempt to access other families' data, probe, breach or overload our systems, or bypass technical or safety controls (including the Coach's guardrails);
• scrape, harvest, or use automated tools against the Services, or use the Services or their outputs to build a competing product or train AI models;
• resell, sublicense or commercially exploit the Services or our content without our written permission;
• misrepresent who you are, or invite people into a family circle under false pretenses.

We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these rules (Section 15).

10. Our content and intellectual property

In short: Our programs, worksheets, app and brand are ours. Personal, non-commercial family use is welcome — republishing or reselling isn't.

All content we provide — programs, lessons, worksheets, activities, guidance content, software, design, and the LearnPlayBond and Circl names and logos — belongs to us or our licensors. We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use it for your own family's non-commercial use, including printing worksheets for home use. You may not copy, republish, distribute, resell or create derivative works from our content, remove proprietary notices, or use it commercially without our prior written consent. Sharing links to our pages with credit is welcome.

11. Third-party services

In short: Payments, sign-in and similar pieces are provided by third parties under their own terms.

Parts of the Services rely on third parties — for example Google (sign-in), Razorpay (payments) and our AI providers. Your use of those components may also be subject to their terms, and we are not responsible for third-party services we do not control. The full list of processors and what they receive is in our Privacy Policy.

12. Availability and changes to the services

In short: We improve things continuously; features can change. We'll be considerate about anything you paid for.

The Services evolve: we may add, change or retire features, and availability may be interrupted for maintenance or reasons beyond our control. If we discontinue a paid offering you purchased before you receive it, we will offer a fair remedy (such as a refund for the undelivered part). We do not promise uninterrupted or error-free operation.

13. Disclaimers and limitation of liability

In short: The Services are provided as-is. Our liability is capped at what you paid us in the last 12 months — except where the law says it can't be.

To the maximum extent permitted by law: the Services are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis without warranties of any kind, express or implied; we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or exemplary damages, or loss of data, profits or goodwill; and our total aggregate liability for all claims relating to the Services is limited to the greater of (a) the amounts you paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim, and (b) ₹1,000. Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law — including under Indian consumer protection law — or our liability for fraud, or for death or personal injury caused by our negligence.

14. Indemnity

In short: If your misuse of the Services causes us legal trouble, you cover it.

You agree to indemnify us against claims, losses and reasonable costs arising from Your Content, your violation of these terms, or your misuse of the Services — except to the extent we caused the issue.

15. Termination

In short: You can leave anytime and take deletion with you; we can suspend accounts that break the rules.

You may stop using the Services at any time and request account deletion as described in our Privacy Policy. We may suspend or terminate your access if you materially breach these terms, if required by law, or if we discontinue the Services — with notice where practicable. Sections that by their nature should survive (including 7, 8, 10, 13, 14 and 16) survive termination.

16. Governing law and disputes

In short: Indian law governs; disputes go to the courts of New Delhi. Talk to us first — most things resolve without lawyers.

These terms are governed by the laws of India. Subject to any non-waivable consumer forum rights you hold, the courts at New Delhi, India have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes arising from these terms or the Services. Before formal proceedings, please raise the issue with us — most concerns are resolved through our grievance process (Section 17).

17. Grievance Officer

In accordance with the Information Technology Act, 2000 and rules made thereunder:

Complaints are acknowledged within 72 hours and resolved within 30 days.

18. Changes to these terms

In short: We'll tell you before material changes apply; continuing to use the Services means acceptance.

We may update these terms as the Services evolve. For material changes we will give advance notice in the app or by email, and update the effective date above. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance; if you disagree, stop using the Services and, if applicable, request deletion of your account.
