Terms
Terms of Use
These terms explain the basic rules for using KidSafe Index. They are meant to be clear, practical, and easy to understand.
Using KidSafe Index
KidSafe Index is intended to help parents, caregivers, and families better understand digital risks affecting kids, teens, and the broader household environment. By using the site, you agree to use it only for lawful and appropriate purposes.
Information and Guidance
KidSafe Index provides educational information, general guidance, and risk-related context. It is not legal advice, medical advice, emergency response guidance, or a substitute for law enforcement, mental health support, cybersecurity services, or other professional services when those are needed.
No Guarantees
We work to make KidSafe Index useful, thoughtful, and reliable, but we cannot guarantee that every score, summary, trend signal, resource, or threat category will always be complete, current, or correct in every situation. Digital risks change quickly, and every family’s circumstances are different.
Important Note
KidSafe Index Is a Guide, Not a Guarantee
The site is designed to help parents ask better questions, better understand risk, and take more informed next steps. It is not a guarantee of safety or an assurance that harm can always be prevented.
External Links and Resources
KidSafe Index may link to outside websites, official reporting tools, and third-party resources. Those external sites are provided as potentially helpful references, but KidSafe Index does not control or guarantee their content, availability, accuracy, or policies, and inclusion does not necessarily mean endorsement.
Scores, Trends, and Threat Summaries
Risk scores, trend indicators, summaries, and audience categories are designed to help users interpret digital risks more clearly. They are informational tools, not definitive measurements or predictions. They should be understood as part of a broader effort to make online safety easier to follow, not as guarantees of outcome or severity in every case.
User Submissions
If you submit information through the site, including through contact forms or update signups, you agree not to send unlawful, abusive, deceptive, or malicious content. You also agree not to attempt to disrupt, misuse, or interfere with the site or its underlying systems.
Privacy
Your use of KidSafe Index is also subject to the site’s Privacy page, which explains how subscriber and contact information is handled.
Changes to the Site
KidSafe Index may evolve over time. Content, features, resources, categories, and site functionality may be updated, added, or removed as the project grows.
