Terms of Service

1. Agreement

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the website located at radtechprepper.com and the related ARRT Radiography Prep application (collectively, the "Service"), operated by Curated Curriculum ("we," "us," or "our"). By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you don't agree, do not use the Service.

2. The Service

RadTechPrepper provides educational content and software tools to help candidates prepare for the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT) Radiography certification exam. The Service includes: study guide chapters, practice questions, flashcards, formula toolkits, a personalized study planner, achievement and gamification systems, and a community forum.

The Service is exam preparation, not medical advice. Content reflects the ARRT Content Specifications and standard radiologic technology references. It is not a substitute for clinical training, medical guidance, or supervision by credentialed professionals. Do not use the Service to make decisions about real patient care.

3. Eligibility and accounts

• You must be at least 18 years old to use the Service.
• You must provide accurate registration information and keep it current.
• You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and for all activity under your account.
• You must verify your email address before you can sign in. Accounts that fail to verify within a reasonable time may be deleted.
• One person, one account. Account sharing, reselling, or transferring access is prohibited.

4. Subscriptions and billing

4.1 Plans

We offer a Free tier (limited content) and a Premium tier. Premium is sold as either a Monthly subscription or an Annual subscription billed in advance. Current pricing is shown on our pricing page; we may change prices for new subscribers at any time, but existing subscribers will not see a price increase mid-term without notice.

4.2 Payment processing

Payments are processed by Stripe, Inc. By subscribing, you authorize us (through Stripe) to charge your payment method on a recurring basis until you cancel. You can update your payment method or cancel your subscription at any time through the Stripe Customer Portal, accessible from the Settings page in the app.

4.3 Renewal

Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period (monthly or annually) at the then-current price. If you don't want to renew, cancel before the renewal date. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid period; you keep Premium access until then.

4.4 Refunds

See our Refund Policy for details. In summary: we offer a 30-day money-back guarantee on first-time Premium subscriptions, and we handle failed-payment grace periods through the Stripe Customer Portal.

4.5 Failed payments

If a payment fails, we'll retry per Stripe's standard schedule and give you a 3-day grace period of continued Premium access. If the payment still fails after grace, your account will revert to Free tier until you update your payment method.

5. Acceptable use

You agree NOT to:

• Use the Service for anything illegal or to violate anyone's rights.
• Share your account credentials, or let others access the Service through your account.
• Scrape, copy, redistribute, or republish our content (questions, study guide text, flashcards, formulas) outside the Service.
• Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the source code of the Service.
• Use automated tools (bots, scripts, scrapers) against the Service except for documented APIs we expressly provide.
• Impersonate another person or misrepresent your affiliation.
• Upload or transmit malicious code, attempt to bypass security or rate limits, or attack the Service.
• Use the community forum to harass other users, spam, or distribute medical advice. The forum is for peer-to-peer study discussion.
• Attempt to defeat the paywall by sharing answers, account credentials, or extracted content with non-subscribers.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these rules, with or without notice depending on severity. Repeat violations result in permanent termination.

6. User content (forum)

When you post in the community forum, you keep ownership of your content but grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, display, reproduce, and moderate your posts as needed to operate the Service.

You are responsible for what you post. Don't post content that is defamatory, obscene, infringing, threatening, or that includes another person's private information without consent. Don't post clinical advice; the forum is for exam prep discussion.

We may remove content or restrict accounts that violate these rules. We are not obligated to monitor every post, and content you encounter in the forum reflects the views of the user who posted it, not us.

7. Intellectual property

All content provided through the Service (including but not limited to: study guide text, practice questions, flashcards, formula toolkits, software, design, brand assets, and Roen the mascot) is owned by us or our licensors and is protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.

We grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the Service for your own ARRT exam preparation. This license ends when your subscription ends or your account is terminated. Nothing in these Terms transfers ownership of any intellectual property to you.

"RadTechPrepper" and the Roen mascot are trademarks of Curated Curriculum. "ARRT" is a registered trademark of the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists; we use it nominatively to identify the certification we help prepare you for. We are not affiliated with or endorsed by the ARRT.

8. Disclaimers

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available." We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that it will achieve any specific outcome (including passing your ARRT exam).

No exam outcome guarantee. Whether you pass the ARRT exam depends on factors beyond our control, including your effort, prior knowledge, and exam-day performance. Our content is scientifically aligned to the ARRT Content Specifications, but we cannot and do not guarantee any specific score.

No medical advice. Nothing in the Service constitutes medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Practice questions and clinical scenarios are provided for educational purposes only.

We disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

9. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law: in no event will we, our affiliates, or our service providers be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or exemplary damages, including lost profits, lost data, or exam-related outcomes, arising out of or related to your use of the Service.

Our total liability for any claim arising out of or related to these Terms or the Service is limited to the greater of (a) the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim, or (b) one hundred US dollars ($100).

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages; in those jurisdictions our liability is limited to the smallest amount permitted by law.

10. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Curated Curriculum, our affiliates, and our personnel from any claim, demand, loss, liability, or expense (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your use of the Service, your violation of these Terms, your violation of applicable law, or your infringement of any third-party right.

11. Termination

You may close your account at any time from Settings. We may suspend or terminate your account if you breach these Terms, if required by law, or if continuing to provide the Service to you becomes commercially impractical. On termination, your access to Premium ends, but already-paid subscription fees are non-refundable except as described in our Refund Policy.

Sections that by their nature should survive termination (e.g., intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, governing law) survive.

12. Governing law and disputes

12.A Governing law and informal resolution

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. The exclusive jurisdiction and venue for any dispute that is not subject to arbitration is the state and federal courts located in San Francisco County, California.

Informal resolution first. Before filing any claim, please email [email protected] with details. We commit to a 30-day good-faith effort to resolve the issue informally.

12.B Binding arbitration

Any dispute that is not resolved through informal resolution within 30 days will be resolved by binding arbitration administered by JAMS in San Francisco County, California, under the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures then in effect. The arbitrator's decision is final and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. Each party bears its own arbitration costs except as the JAMS rules otherwise allocate, and except that we will pay the filing fees if you are a consumer and your claim is for $10,000 or less. Nothing in this section prevents either party from seeking injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction for intellectual-property infringement or unauthorized access to the Service.

12.C Class-action waiver

You and we agree that any disputes will be resolved on an individual basis. Neither party may bring a claim as a plaintiff or class member in a class, collective, consolidated, or representative action. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims and may not preside over any form of representative or class proceeding. This waiver does not apply where prohibited by law.

12.D 30-day opt-out

You may opt out of the arbitration agreement and class-action waiver in sections 12.B and 12.C by emailing [email protected] within 30 days of first creating your account, with the subject "Arbitration opt-out" and the email address on your account. Opting out does not affect any other part of these Terms, and we will not retaliate against you for opting out. If you don't opt out within the 30-day window, you and we are bound to arbitrate as set out above.

13. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we'll update the "Last updated" date at the top. For material changes, we'll notify you by email and through an in-app banner at least 14 days before the changes take effect. Continued use of the Service after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

14. Miscellaneous

• Entire agreement. These Terms, plus our Privacy Policy and Refund Policy, are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service.
• Severability. If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the rest stays in force.
• No waiver. Our failure to enforce a provision doesn't waive our right to enforce it later.
• Assignment. You can't assign these Terms without our consent. We may assign them without restriction.
• Notices. Notices to you may be sent by email to the address on your account. Notices to us must go to [email protected].
