Terms of Service

Last updated: March 27, 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the CaseWrit platform ("Platform", "Service"), operated by CaseWrit ("we", "us", "our"). By creating an account or using the Platform, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

1. Platform Description and Disclaimer

1.1. CaseWrit is a technology platform that provides tools for organizing legal case information, managing evidence, building timelines, and preparing court-ready documents. CaseWrit is a software tool — not a law firm, not a lawyer, and not a legal services provider.

1.2. We are the mall, not the stores. CaseWrit provides the infrastructure and tools. The legal content, evidence, case strategies, and documents within the Platform are created, uploaded, and managed by Users and their Organizations. We do not review, verify, approve, or endorse any legal content stored on the Platform.

1.3. No legal advice. Nothing on this Platform constitutes legal advice, legal opinion, or a recommendation regarding any legal matter. You should always consult with a qualified legal professional for advice specific to your situation. Using CaseWrit does not create a solicitor-client or attorney-client relationship with us.

2. Accounts and Access

2.1. To use CaseWrit, you must create an account using a supported authentication provider (Google, Microsoft, or Apple). You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account.

2.2. You must be at least 18 years of age, or the age of majority in your jurisdiction, to create an account and use the Service.

2.3. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information when creating your account and to update such information as necessary.

3. Organization (Tenant) Responsibilities

3.1. CaseWrit operates on a multi-tenant model. Each case you create or are invited to is a separate workspace ("Organization"). The case owner is the Organization administrator.

3.2. Organization administrators are responsible for:

  • Managing member access and permission levels (owner, editor, viewer)
  • Ensuring that all members comply with these Terms
  • The accuracy and legality of content uploaded to the Organization
  • Removing members who should no longer have access
  • Complying with all applicable laws regarding the data stored within the Organization

4. User Responsibilities

4.1. As a User, you agree to:

  • Use the Platform only for lawful purposes
  • Not upload malicious code, viruses, or harmful content
  • Not attempt to gain unauthorized access to other users' data or accounts
  • Not use the Platform to harass, threaten, or harm any person
  • Not use the Platform to fabricate or tamper with evidence
  • Ensure that any evidence or documents you upload were lawfully obtained
  • Comply with all applicable laws, including privacy and data protection legislation

4.2. You are solely responsible for the content you create, upload, or store on the Platform. CaseWrit does not monitor or review User content except as may be required by law.

5. Data Handling and Security

5.1. We take data security seriously. All case data is encrypted using AES-256-GCM encryption with per-user encryption keys. For full details on how we handle your data, please see our Privacy Policy.

5.2. While we implement industry-standard security measures, no system is completely secure. You acknowledge that you use the Platform at your own risk and that we cannot guarantee absolute security of your data.

5.3. You are responsible for maintaining your own backups of critical case data. We recommend exporting important documents regularly.

6. Data Retention and Deletion

6.1. CaseWrit uses a soft-delete model for legal data — when you "delete" an item, it is marked as deleted but retained for a period to protect against accidental loss. This is consistent with legal best practices for evidence preservation.

6.2. You may request permanent deletion of your account and all associated data by contacting us. Upon receiving a verified deletion request, we will permanently remove your data within 30 days, except where retention is required by law.

6.3. If an Organization is deleted, all members will lose access to the data within that Organization. The owner must notify members before deletion.

7. Intellectual Property

7.1. Your content is yours. You retain all ownership rights to the content you upload, create, or store on CaseWrit. We do not claim any ownership or license to your legal documents, evidence, timelines, or case data.

7.2. You grant CaseWrit a limited, non-exclusive license to host, store, process, and display your content solely for the purpose of providing the Service to you.

7.3. The CaseWrit name, logo, software, interface design, and documentation are the intellectual property of CaseWrit and are protected by applicable copyright and trademark laws. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or reverse-engineer any part of the Platform.

8. Limitation of Liability

8.1. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, CASEWRIT AND ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF PROFITS, OR LEGAL OUTCOMES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE PLATFORM.

8.2. CaseWrit is not responsible for any legal outcomes, court decisions, or consequences arising from your use of the Platform or reliance on content organized within it. The Platform is a tool — legal outcomes depend on the merits of your case, the evidence, and the decisions of courts and tribunals.

8.3. Our total aggregate liability for any claims arising under these Terms shall not exceed the amount you paid to CaseWrit in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim, or CAD $100, whichever is greater.

9. Account Termination

9.1. You may terminate your account at any time by contacting us or using the account deletion feature within the Platform.

9.2. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account if:

  • You violate these Terms
  • Your use poses a security risk to the Platform or other users
  • Your account has been inactive for an extended period (we will provide notice)
  • Required by law or court order

9.3. Upon termination, you will have a 30-day grace period to export your data. After this period, your data may be permanently deleted.

10. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

10.1. These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada, and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein, without regard to conflict of law principles.

10.2. Any disputes arising from or relating to these Terms or your use of the Platform shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Province of Ontario, Canada.

11. Changes to These Terms

11.1. We may update these Terms from time to time. When we make material changes, we will notify you by email or through a notice on the Platform at least 30 days before the changes take effect.

11.2. Your continued use of the Platform after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms. If you do not agree with the changes, you must stop using the Platform.

12. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect.
