These terms govern your use of TransferRoute. They're written in plain language on purpose. By using the site, you agree to what's below.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using TransferRoute (the "Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service. If you are under 18, you should review these terms with a parent or guardian.

2. Use of the Service

TransferRoute is a personal planning tool for community college students considering transfer. You may use it for your own educational planning. You are responsible for the accuracy of the information you enter. You agree not to use the Service for any unlawful purpose, and not to attempt to reverse-engineer, scrape, or reproduce the site's content or code for commercial use without permission.

Your planning data is stored locally in your browser (and, if you opt into an account, synced to our database). You are responsible for safeguarding the device and browser where your information is kept.

3. Informational Purpose Only — Not Academic Advising

By using TransferRoute, you agree that this tool is provided for informational purposes only and does not constitute official academic advising. Always verify transfer requirements with your school's official counselor and with ASSIST.org.

Admission likelihood scores, GPA targets, cost estimates, scholarship matches, and articulation suggestions are informational aids based on public data and the information you provide. They are estimates — not guarantees — and should never be the sole basis for an academic, financial, or enrollment decision.

4. Intellectual Property

The TransferRoute name, design, code, and original written content are the property of TransferRoute and its creator. University names, logos, and trademarks shown in the Service belong to their respective institutions and are used for identification and informational purposes only. TransferRoute is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to any university, college, or government agency.

5. No Warranty

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not warrant that the information is accurate, complete, current, or error-free, or that the Service will be uninterrupted. School data, deadlines, costs, and requirements change frequently and should be independently confirmed.

6. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, TransferRoute and its creator will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, or for any decision you make based on the Service — including admissions outcomes, financial outcomes, or missed deadlines. Your use of the Service is at your own risk.

7. Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms as the Service evolves. Changes take effect when posted, reflected by the "Last updated" date above. Continued use of the Service after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.

8. Contact

Questions about these terms can be sent to contact@transferroute.app (update before going live).
