Terms of use.

This site, and the reader behind it, are operated by Contractward. You can reach us at support@contractward.com — about these terms, about a report, or about anything the reader got wrong.

By using the service you agree to these terms. If you do not agree to them, do not send us a document.

You send a contract — a file or pasted text. We read it and return a report: a plain-language account of what the document does, the clauses that appear unusual, costly or one-sided for that kind of document, each quoting the sentence that triggered it, and a list of the clauses that were read and found standard.

The reading is done by a large language model reached through a third party. §9 covers what that means for your document; the privacy policy covers it in full.

Contractward does not provide legal advice and does not practise law. Using it creates no solicitor–client relationship and attracts no legal professional privilege. It will not tell you whether to sign anything.

This is set out properly, with the specific ways the reading can be wrong, in the page on what Contractward is not. That page forms part of these terms.

When you use the service, you confirm that:

• You are entitled to send us the document. It is yours, or you have the permission you need to share it.
• You are using the report for your own purposes, and you are not passing it off as legal advice to anyone else.
• You will not send anything unlawful, or use the service to do anything unlawful.
• You will not attempt to overload, probe, scrape or circumvent the service, use it through automated means at scale, or try to extract the instructions behind the reader.

A contract usually contains someone else's personal data as well as yours — a landlord, an employer, a guarantor. You are responsible for what you choose to send. If something in the document does not need to be read in order to read the clauses, redact it first.

You must be at least 16 to use Contractward. If you are under 16, ask an adult to help you with the document instead.

The service is provided as it is and as it is available. We do not promise any level of uptime, and we may change, suspend or withdraw any part of it, including the whole of it, without notice.

We may change these terms. The version that applies to a read is the one published when you make it, and the date at the top of this page tells you when it last changed.

We work hard to make reports accurate and we check every quoted sentence against the document you sent before showing it to you. We do not warrant that a report is accurate, complete, current, or fit for any particular purpose, and automated reading can be wrong in the ways described in the page on what Contractward is not.

To the extent the law allows, all warranties, conditions and terms that would otherwise be implied into these terms are excluded.

Nothing in these terms limits or excludes liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be limited or excluded. If you are a consumer, nothing in these terms affects your statutory rights.

Subject to that: we are not liable for any loss arising from a decision you take, or do not take, on the basis of a report; for any loss of profit, revenue, business, opportunity, anticipated saving or data; or for any loss that was not reasonably foreseeable when you used the service.

While the service is provided free of charge, our total liability to you in connection with it is limited to £100. If you are ever charged for a read, our total liability in connection with that read is limited to the amount you paid for it.

In plain words: this is a reading tool you can use for nothing, it can be wrong, and the decision about your contract is yours. If you need someone to be answerable for the advice, you need a solicitor, who is insured for exactly that.

To read your document we send it to OpenRouter Inc., which routes it to the provider of the model doing the reading. We ask for routing that does not retain prompts, but we do not control those third parties and cannot be responsible for their acts or omissions.

We do not store your document or your report. The privacy policy sets out the whole path your document takes.

Your document stays yours. The report produced for you is yours to use as you like, including to quote at the person who sent you the contract.

The site itself — its design, its text, the wording of the reader, and everything else we have made — belongs to Contractward and may not be copied or reused without permission, except for the ordinary use of this site.

The example contract shown on the home page is a sample written for the site. It is not a real agreement and not a template: do not use it as one.

You can stop using the service whenever you like; there is no account to close. We may stop providing it to you if you break these terms.

These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales, and disputes about them will be dealt with by the courts of England and Wales.

If you are a consumer living elsewhere in the United Kingdom or in the EEA, you keep the protection of the mandatory laws of the country you live in, and may bring proceedings there.
