These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a contract between you ("you", "your account", or, where you represent a school or academy, "your organization") and Stamatios Farantopoulos, trading as LessonPen (KVK: 84922141), registered in the Netherlands ("LessonPen", "we", "us"). By creating an account or otherwise using LessonPen, you agree to these Terms. If you are accepting on behalf of an organization, you confirm you have the authority to bind that organization.
LessonPen is scheduling, lesson-notes, reminder, and billing software for private teachers and academies. We may add, change, or remove features over time; where a change materially reduces functionality you're actively paying for, we'll give reasonable notice.
You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction) to create a LessonPen account. Student and parent/guardian accounts accessed through an invitation from a teacher or school are covered separately by the same organization's use of the service. You are responsible for the accuracy of the information you provide and for keeping your login credentials confidential — you're responsible for activity that happens under your account unless it results from our failure to secure the service.
Solo plans include a 14-day free trial; no payment method is required to start one. If you continue past the trial, your subscription bills in advance on a recurring monthly basis (or the interval shown at checkout) until you cancel. School plans are billed per the commercial terms agreed separately with our team. Prices are shown in EUR; VAT is added where applicable. We may change prices with at least 30 days' notice for existing subscribers.
You can cancel a Solo subscription at any time from Settings; your access continues until the end of the billing period you already paid for, and you won't be charged again. We don't offer prorated refunds for partial billing periods except where required by law or as we agree on a case-by-case basis — contact support@lessonpen.com. School contracts follow the cancellation terms in the signed agreement.
You agree not to: use LessonPen for any unlawful purpose; attempt to gain unauthorized access to another organization's data; upload malicious code; or resell or white-label the service without our written agreement. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate this section.
Student records, lesson notes, invoices, and other content you enter ("Customer Data") remain yours. You grant us the limited right to host, process, and display Customer Data solely to provide the service to you. How we collect, use, and protect personal data is described in our Privacy Policy. Where we process personal data on your behalf as a data processor (e.g. your students' details), a data processing agreement is available on request.
Where you choose to accept online payments, those payments are processed by third-party providers (currently Stripe and/or Mollie), subject to their own terms. LessonPen does not take a cut of payments processed this way — the processor's own standard transaction fee is the only charge beyond your subscription. We are not responsible for the availability or acts of these third-party providers.
LessonPen and its original content, features, and functionality are owned by Stamatios Farantopoulos (trading as LessonPen) and protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. These Terms don't grant you any right to our trademarks or branding beyond what's needed to use the service normally.
We aim for high availability but don't guarantee the service will be uninterrupted or error-free. LessonPen is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, express or implied, to the maximum extent permitted by law.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, LessonPen's total liability arising out of or relating to these Terms or the service is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim arose. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages. Nothing in this section limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law (for example, liability for gross negligence or willful misconduct, where local law prevents such limitation).
Either party may terminate for convenience per the cancellation terms above. We may suspend or terminate your access immediately if you materially breach these Terms (including non-payment or acceptable-use violations) and don't fix it within a reasonable period after notice. On termination, we'll make your Customer Data available for export for a reasonable period before deletion.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Netherlands, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute not resolved informally will be brought before the competent courts of Rotterdam, the Netherlands, without prejudice to any mandatory consumer-protection rights you have in your own country of residence.
We may update these Terms from time to time. For material changes, we'll notify active subscribers by email or an in-product notice at least 14 days before the change takes effect. Continuing to use LessonPen after a change takes effect means you accept the updated Terms.
