5. Use of AI Tools
AI Tools in Service Delivery
In the course of providing our Services — including private consulting, memoir coaching, and content organization — we may use third-party AI tools such as Anthropic’s Claude and OpenAI’s ChatGPT to assist with tasks such as drafting, editing, organizing, and structuring content.
Your Consent Is Required
Because your content may include sensitive personal material such as health information, family history, grief, trauma, and other deeply personal stories, Journey to Legacy will always notify you before using AI tools on your personal content and will obtain your explicit consent prior to doing so. You have the right to decline AI use on your content at any time without affecting your access to our Services.
AI Accuracy and Your Responsibility
While we take care in how we use AI tools, AI-generated or AI-assisted content should always be reviewed and verified. Journey to Legacy is not responsible for inaccuracies in AI-generated content. You are responsible for reviewing any content that has been processed with AI assistance before finalizing or publishing it.
AI Is Not Used in the Life Story Studio Platform
Our Life Story Studio writing platform does not incorporate AI tools. AI is used only in the context of direct service delivery by Journey to Legacy staff, and only with your explicit consent as described above.
Data Handling
When content is submitted to a third-party AI tool as part of our service delivery, that content is subject to the privacy policies of those third-party providers (Anthropic and OpenAI). We encourage you to review their privacy policies. We do not submit your content to AI tools without your knowledge and consent.
6. Lifetime Access
The term ‘lifetime access’ refers to the purchaser’s right to access course content for the duration of the course’s availability on our platform. This access begins on the date of purchase and continues indefinitely, subject to the following conditions:
- The course remains available on our platform.
- The purchaser’s account remains in good standing.
- The purchaser complies with all Terms.
Please note that ‘lifetime access’ does not guarantee the perpetual existence of the course or our platform. We reserve the right to discontinue the course or cease operations at any time, though we will make reasonable efforts to provide advance notice of such changes.
7. System Requirements

We reserve the right to update these system requirements as needed. Users will be notified of any significant changes.
8. Third-Party Services
Our Services may display content or direct you to sites, software, or services owned or operated by third parties (“Third-Party Services”). While we take care to work only with trusted third parties, we have no control over and are not responsible for the content, operation, privacy practices, or other policies of such Third-Party Services.

Disclaimer of Warranties
WE PROVIDE OUR SERVICES USING A COMMERCIALLY REASONABLE LEVEL OF SKILL AND CARE, BUT THERE ARE CERTAIN THINGS THAT WE DON’T PROMISE ABOUT OUR SERVICES. OTHER THAN AS EXPRESSLY SET OUT IN THESE TERMS, JOURNEY TO LEGACY DOES NOT MAKE ANY COMMITMENTS ABOUT THE SERVICES, INCLUDING THEIR CONTENT, FUNCTIONALITY, RELIABILITY, AVAILABILITY, OR ABILITY TO MEET YOUR NEEDS.

15. Modifying and Terminating Services
We are constantly improving our Services. We may add or remove functionalities or features, and we may suspend or stop a Service altogether. You can stop using our Services at any time. We believe that you own your User Content and preserving your access to it is important. If we discontinue part of the Services, where reasonably possible, we will give you reasonable advance notice and a chance to retrieve your User Content. We have the right to terminate your account for any reason. If we choose to terminate your account, we will send you a digital backup of your content and refund any unused subscription fees.
16. Disputes and Arbitration
We always try to resolve things amicably. If you have a concern, please contact us first at [email protected] and we will do our best to make things right.
If we cannot resolve a dispute informally, you and Journey to Legacy agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the use of the Services will be settled by binding arbitration, except that each party retains the right to bring an individual action in small claims court and the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction.
The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, by a single arbitrator. The arbitration will be held in San Luis Obispo County, California, or virtually by agreement. The arbitrator’s award shall be final and binding on all parties.
You and Journey to Legacy agree that any arbitration will be limited to the dispute between Journey to Legacy and you individually. No arbitration shall be joined with any other proceeding, and there is no right or authority for any dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis.
Opt-Out
You may opt out of this arbitration provision within 30 days of account creation by emailing [email protected] with your full name, account email, and an explicit opt-out statement. We will confirm receipt within 10 business days.
Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflicts of laws provisions. All claims not subject to arbitration will be litigated exclusively in the federal or state courts of San Luis Obispo County, California. Any claim arising out of or related to the use of the Services must be filed within one (1) year after such claim arose or be forever barred.
17. Changes to These Terms
Journey to Legacy reserves the right to revise these Terms at any time by posting an updated version to our website and updating the effective date. You should periodically review this page for the latest information. By continuing to access or use the Services after updated Terms have been posted, you agree to be bound by the updated Terms. If you do not agree to the modified Terms, you should discontinue your use of the Services.
18. Miscellaneous
These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and Journey to Legacy regarding your use of the Services. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the other provisions will remain enforceable. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your rights hereunder without our prior written consent. The section titles in these Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect.
