Terms of Service

These terms are a contract between FirmProof (“we”, “us”) and the firm or person opening an account (“you”). They govern your use of the FirmProof website, the free scan, and the paid monitoring service. By creating an account or running a scan you agree to them.

FirmProof provides automated monitoring checks of publicly available website content. On a schedule (and on demand after fixes), our systems fetch pages of the website you nominate — the same pages any visitor can access — and evaluate them against FirmProof's current ruleset, which is based on published requirements of the Solicitors Regulation Authority. Each check produces a finding with supporting evidence (page, excerpt, date, and the source the check references).

A result of “Clear” means no issue was detected by that automated check. It does not mean, and must not be presented as meaning, that your website or firm is compliant with any rule or regulation.

FirmProof is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice, regulatory advice or compliance certification. We do not guarantee that use of the service will result in compliance with SRA requirements or any other obligation, nor that it will prevent regulatory action, complaints or penalties. Automated checks have inherent limits: they can miss issues, and findings that require judgement are flagged for your review. Responsibility for your website's compliance remains yours. FirmProof is independent and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Solicitors Regulation Authority.

You must provide accurate account information and only nominate websites you own or are authorised to monitor. You must not: use the service to scan sites without authority; attempt to overload, probe or reverse-engineer the service; resell results as your own certification of compliance; or present FirmProof findings as a regulator's assessment. We may suspend accounts that breach this clause.

The monitoring service is a paid subscription billed by our payment processor, Stripe, monthly or annually in advance at the prices shown at checkout. You can cancel at any time from your account or by contacting us; cancellation stops future renewals and the service remains active until the end of the paid period. Fees already paid are non-refundable except where the law requires otherwise. After cancellation you retain read access to your monitoring history for as long as that history is retained under our retention policy (see the Privacy Notice); scanning stops. We may change prices with at least 30 days' notice, effective from your next renewal.

We process only the data described in our Privacy Notice: account details, firm details you provide, snapshots of your public website content, and billing data handled by Stripe. We never access client-matter data. You grant us the limited licence needed to fetch, store and display snapshots of your public pages to you as part of the service.

We aim for high availability but the service is provided “as is” and may be interrupted for maintenance, by third-party outages, or by changes to your website that prevent scanning. We may improve or modify checks and the ruleset at any time; rule changes are versioned and visible in your history.

Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded by law (including for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or fraud). Subject to that, we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, loss of profit, or regulatory penalties you incur; and our total aggregate liability arising out of or in connection with the service is capped at the fees you paid us in the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim.

We may update these terms; material changes will be notified by email or in-app at least 14 days before they take effect. If any clause is found unenforceable the rest remains in force. These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales, and the courts of England and Wales have exclusive jurisdiction. Questions: dantasdeveloper@gmail.com.
