These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern access to and use of Model B, a school operations platform operated by Model B LLC ("Model B," "we," "us"). By accessing or using Model B, you agree to these Terms on behalf of the school or district you represent ("you," "School").
If you don't agree to these Terms, don't use Model B.
Model B is provided to schools and districts, not to individual students or families. The School is the party we contract with; individual staff accounts are provisioned by the School for its own personnel. If you're a parent, student, or member of the public, these Terms don't create a direct relationship between you and Model B — your school's use of Model B is governed by its own policies and its agreement with us.
The School is responsible for provisioning and managing staff accounts, including determining who receives access and at what permission level. Staff members are responsible for keeping their own credentials secure and for activity that occurs under their account. If a staff member's access should be revoked (e.g., they leave the school), the School is responsible for removing that access promptly.
You agree not to:
Your school owns its data. Student records, staff information, and any other data your school enters into Model B ("Customer Data") belongs to your school, not to us. We do not claim ownership of Customer Data.
We are granted a limited license to access, store, and process Customer Data solely to provide, maintain, and support Model B on your school's behalf, and for no other purpose. This license ends when your relationship with Model B ends, subject to the data retention and deletion terms in our Privacy Policy.
Model B — the software, design, branding, and underlying technology — is owned by us. These Terms grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use Model B for your school's internal operational purposes. Nothing here grants you rights to resell, sublicense, or redistribute Model B, or to use our branding without permission.
Fees for Model B, if applicable, are set out in a separate order form or agreement between your school and Model B, rather than in these Terms. Where a separate agreement conflicts with these Terms on the subject of fees, the separate agreement controls.
These Terms remain in effect for as long as your school has an active account with Model B. Either party may terminate the relationship as set out in a separate agreement between your school and Model B, or, absent a separate agreement, with reasonable written notice.
Upon termination, we will handle your Customer Data as described in our Privacy Policy's retention and deletion terms. We may suspend or terminate access immediately if we reasonably believe continued access poses a security risk, violates these Terms, or is required by law.
Model B is provided "as is" and "as available." We do not guarantee that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or completely secure, though we take the measures described in our Security Overview to protect your data. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Model B's total liability arising out of or related to these Terms or your use of the platform will not exceed the amount your school paid to Model B in the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim. Model B will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.
Nothing in this section is intended to limit liability in ways not permitted by applicable law, including for gross negligence or willful misconduct.
Your school agrees to indemnify and hold Model B harmless from claims arising out of your school's violation of these Terms, misuse of the platform, or violation of applicable law, including student privacy law, in connection with your school's use of Model B.
We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date above and, where appropriate, notify schools directly. Continued use of Model B after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any disputes arising under these Terms will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Texas, and both parties consent to jurisdiction there.
If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full effect. These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any separate agreement between your school and Model B, constitute the entire agreement between the parties on this subject. We may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets; you may not assign these Terms without our consent.
