The DAD Code

Terms of Use

Effective Date: October 16, 2026

These Terms of Use apply to The DAD Code app (the "Application") operated by TheCarterWay (the "Service Provider").

Agreement to These Terms

By creating an account or using The DAD Code (the "Application"), you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, do not use the Application.

Not Legal Advice

The DAD Code provides legal information, research tools, and AI-assisted document drafting for educational and informational purposes only. It is not a law firm, does not provide legal advice, and is not a substitute for a licensed attorney. Using the Application does not create an attorney-client relationship. Laws and court rules vary by state and county and change over time. You are responsible for reviewing any document before you file it and for meeting every court deadline. For advice about your specific situation, consult a licensed attorney in your state.

AI-Generated Content

Answers, summaries, and drafted documents are produced with the help of artificial intelligence. They may contain errors, omissions, or citations that are outdated or do not apply to your case. Verify all statutes, case law, and court rules before relying on them.

Eligibility and Accounts

  • You must be at least 18 years old to use the Application.
  • Provide accurate information when you create your account and keep it up to date.
  • You are responsible for keeping your login credentials secure and for all activity under your account.
  • Tell us right away at Info@carterways.com if you believe your account has been accessed without your permission.

Subscriptions and Billing

  • Paid plans are billed monthly in advance through our payment processor, Stripe, and renew automatically each month until you cancel.
  • Your billing date is the day of the month you first subscribed.
  • If a payment fails, your account returns to the Free plan until a payment succeeds. Stripe retries failed payments automatically, and your paid access comes back as soon as one goes through.
  • We may change plan prices with at least 30 days’ notice by email. A new price applies starting with your next billing date after the notice period.

Each plan includes the following. Monthly limits reset on your billing date. Unused amounts do not roll over.

"Unlimited" means unlimited for one person’s own legal matters under normal use. We may limit accounts that use automated tools or share access with others.

How to Cancel

  • You can cancel at any time. There are no contracts and no cancellation fees.
  • To cancel, go to Settings, then Subscription, and tap "Cancel subscription." It takes effect right away, and the page shows the date your paid plan ends.
  • Cancel before your next billing date to avoid being charged for the next month.
  • Changed your mind? Tap "Keep my plan" on the same page any time before your plan ends.
  • If you can’t reach the button, email Info@carterways.com from the email address on your account and we will cancel within one business day.
  • After you cancel, you keep your paid features until the end of the month you already paid for. Then your account moves to the Free plan. Your saved documents and case information stay in your account unless you delete it.
  • Deleting your account from Settings also cancels your paid subscription immediately. You won’t be charged again, and no refund is given for the rest of the current month.

Refund Policy

  • Monthly payments are non-refundable, and we do not give refunds or credits for partial months or unused questions or drafts.
  • We will refund in full: a duplicate charge, a charge made in error, or any charge made after the date we confirmed your cancellation.
  • If the Application had a problem on our side that kept you from using your paid features for an extended time, contact us and we will review it fairly. That may include a full or partial refund.
  • To request a refund, email Info@carterways.com within 30 days of the charge with your account email and the date and amount of the charge. Approved refunds go back to your original payment method, usually within 5 to 10 business days.
  • Nothing in this policy limits any refund rights you have under the law where you live.

Your Content

You keep ownership of the documents and information you upload or enter. You give us permission to store and process that content only as needed to provide the Application to you, including sending it to AI services for analysis. You are responsible for having the right to upload any document you submit. See our Privacy Policy for how we handle your information.

Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

  • Use the Application for any unlawful purpose or to harass, threaten, or defraud anyone.
  • Upload content you do not have the right to share, or content containing malware.
  • Attempt to access other users’ accounts or data, or interfere with the Application’s security or operation.
  • Copy, resell, or redistribute the Application or its content without our written permission.

Our Intellectual Property

The Application, including its design, software, text, and branding, is owned by the Service Provider and protected by law. Documents generated for you may be used by you for your own legal matters.

Disclaimer of Warranties

The Application is provided "as is" and "as available." To the fullest extent permitted by law, we make no warranties of any kind, including that the Application will be error-free, uninterrupted, or that any outcome in your case will result from using it.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Service Provider will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, or for any outcome of a legal matter, arising from your use of the Application. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us in the three months before the claim arose.

Termination

You may stop using the Application and delete your account at any time from Settings. We may suspend or end access for accounts that violate these Terms.

Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Georgia, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules.

Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. Continuing to use the Application after a change means you accept the updated Terms.
