Terms of Service

Effective date: March 26, 2026

By using ParentalView ("the Service"), you agree to the following terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

1. Description of Service

ParentalView is a parental control tool that helps parents monitor and manage their children's YouTube viewing. It consists of a Chrome browser extension (installed on the child's device) and a web-based dashboard (used by the parent). The Service uses AI to analyze video content against parent-defined rules.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction) to create a ParentalView account. The Service is intended to be set up and managed by a parent or legal guardian. The Chrome extension is intended to be installed on a device used by a minor under the parent's supervision.

3. Account Responsibilities

  • You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials.
  • You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account.
  • You must not share your account with other users.
  • You agree to provide accurate information when creating your account.

4. Acceptable Use

You agree to use ParentalView only for its intended purpose: managing your own child's YouTube viewing. You must not:

  • Use the Service to monitor individuals who are not your minor children or dependents.
  • Attempt to reverse-engineer, modify, or circumvent the Service's security measures.
  • Use the Service to harass, stalk, or invade the privacy of others.
  • Overload the Service with automated requests or abuse the API.

5. AI Content Analysis

ParentalView uses AI (powered by Anthropic's Claude) to evaluate video content. You acknowledge that:

  • AI analysis is not perfect. Videos may be incorrectly allowed or blocked.
  • The Service is a tool to assist parental judgment, not a replacement for it.
  • We are not responsible for content that the AI fails to flag or incorrectly flags.
  • You should review blocked video alerts and use your own judgment when responding to watch requests.

6. YouTube Compatibility

ParentalView interacts with YouTube's publicly available web pages. YouTube may change its website structure at any time, which could temporarily disrupt the Service. We do not guarantee uninterrupted compatibility with YouTube. ParentalView is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by YouTube or Google.

7. Privacy

Your use of the Service is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which describes how we collect, use, and protect your data.

8. Limitation of Liability

ParentalView is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, express or implied. To the fullest extent permitted by law:

  • We are not liable for any content your child views or is blocked from viewing.
  • We are not liable for any damages arising from use of or inability to use the Service.
  • Our total liability is limited to the amount you paid for the Service (if any).

9. Termination

You may stop using the Service at any time by uninstalling the extension and deleting your account. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms.

10. Changes to Terms

We may update these terms from time to time. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance. We will notify users of material changes via the web app.
