Terms of Service

Acceptance of Terms

ClearSplit is operated by GavelSight LLC ("ClearSplit," "we," "us," or "our"). By creating an account or accessing ClearSplit, you agree to these Terms of Service, including the binding arbitration and class-action waiver in the "Dispute Resolution" section below. If you do not agree, do not use the service.

Service Description

ClearSplit is a web-based tool for managing divorce asset division. The service includes case management, financial data entry, equitable distribution calculations, document storage and encryption, marital settlement agreement generation, court export bundles, and data export. ClearSplit is a self-service financial workflow tool and does not provide legal, financial, or tax advice.

Not a Law Firm — No Attorney-Client Relationship

Permitted Use

• Use ClearSplit only for lawful divorce financial management
• Protect account credentials from unauthorized disclosure
• Ensure uploaded documents and entered data are authorized for processing
• Comply with all applicable laws, regulations, and professional conduct rules
• Maintain accurate and current account information

Professional Responsibility

Accounts and Access

Accounts are personal to the registered user. You are responsible for all activity under your account. Case invitations grant role-based access to specific cases and should be shared only with authorized parties through secure channels.

Each case supports up to five roles: plaintiff, plaintiff's attorney, defendant, defendant's attorney, and mediator/judge. The case creator is responsible for managing invitations and access within their case.

Data Ownership

You retain ownership of all case data, documents, and content you enter into ClearSplit. We claim no intellectual property rights over your data. You grant ClearSplit a limited license to process, store, and display your data solely for the purpose of providing the service.

Purchases and Billing

ClearSplit cases are purchased individually at a one-time fee. Each purchase grants 36 months of full active access to the case, after which the case transitions to lifetime read-only archive status. All case roles (up to 5 participants) are included in the purchase price at no additional cost.

Payments are processed by third-party payment processors (currently Stripe, subject to Stripe's Terms of Service; we may add or substitute processors of comparable standing). We reserve the right to adjust pricing for future purchases with 30 days written notice; existing purchases are not affected by price changes.

Refund requests are evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Contact us within 30 days of purchase if you believe a refund is warranted.

Service Availability

We strive for high availability but do not guarantee uninterrupted service. Scheduled maintenance will be communicated in advance when possible. We are not liable for temporary service interruptions, though we maintain regular backups and encrypted document storage designed to survive infrastructure changes.

Disclaimer of Warranties

The service is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim all implied warranties, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the calculations, statutory summaries, or generated documents are accurate, complete, current, legally sufficient, or enforceable, or that the service will be uninterrupted or error-free. Divorce law varies by state and changes over time; any legal information we present may be incomplete or out of date for your jurisdiction.

Assumption of Risk

Divorce involves significant financial and legal consequences. You acknowledge that you use ClearSplit's calculations and documents at your own risk and that you are solely responsible for verifying any output with a licensed attorney and other qualified professionals before relying on it, signing it, or submitting it to a court or opposing party.

Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, ClearSplit, GavelSight LLC, and their respective owners, officers, employees, and agents shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for any lost profits, lost savings, or unfavorable legal or financial outcomes, arising from or related to your use of (or inability to use) the service — including errors in calculations, data loss, or reliance on documents without independent professional verification — even if advised of the possibility of such damages.

In all cases, our total aggregate liability arising from or related to the service and these Terms shall not exceed the greater of (a) the total amount you paid to ClearSplit for the case at issue in the twelve months preceding the claim, or (b) one hundred U.S. dollars ($100). Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so portions of this section may not apply to you.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless ClearSplit and GavelSight LLC from any claims, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your misuse of the service, your violation of these Terms, your violation of any law or the rights of a third party, or any document or filing you create, sign, or submit using output from the service.

Suspension and Termination

Account access may be suspended or terminated for material security misuse, fraud, or terms violations. Upon termination, you may request export of your data within 90 days, after which data will be permanently deleted per our Retention Policy.

Modifications

We may update these terms from time to time. Material changes will be communicated via email to account holders. Continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.

Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida and applicable U.S. federal law, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Subject to the Dispute Resolution section below, you and GavelSight LLC consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in Pinellas County, Florida for any matter not subject to arbitration.

Dispute Resolution — Binding Arbitration and Class-Action Waiver

Please read this section carefully — it affects your legal rights. Except for claims that qualify for small-claims court and requests for injunctive relief to protect intellectual property or account security, any dispute arising from or relating to these Terms or the service will be resolved by final and binding individual arbitration administered by a recognized arbitration provider under its consumer rules, rather than in court. The arbitration will be conducted in Pinellas County, Florida or, at your election, by telephone, video, or written submissions. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Class-action waiver. You and GavelSight LLC agree that each may bring claims against the other only in an individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, consolidated, or representative proceeding. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims or preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.

30-day opt-out. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by emailing legal@clearsplit.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms, stating your name, account email, and intent to opt out. Opting out does not affect any other provision of these Terms. If this arbitration agreement is found unenforceable, the class-action waiver remains in effect to the fullest extent permitted, and any residual dispute proceeds in the courts identified in the Governing Law section.
