Terms of Service

Welcome to Spectrum Unlocked. By accessing and using spectrumunlocked.com ("the Site"), you agree to the following terms.

About Our Content

Spectrum Unlocked provides free educational resources, guides, tools, and community information for parents and caregivers of autistic children. Our content is created by parents and informed by evidence-based practices, but it is for informational purposes only.

We are not medical, legal, or therapeutic professionals. Our content does not constitute medical advice, legal advice, therapeutic guidance, or professional consultation of any kind. Always consult qualified professionals for decisions about your child's medical care, education, legal rights, and therapeutic services.

Use of Our Resources

All resources on Spectrum Unlocked — including guides, blog posts, downloadable PDFs, worksheets, and interactive tools — are provided free of charge for personal, educational, and non-commercial use.

You may:

• Download and print resources for personal use
• Share resources with other parents, caregivers, and family members
• Use resources in educational settings (schools, therapy sessions)
• Share links to our content on social media and other platforms

You may not:

• Sell or commercially distribute our resources
• Claim our content as your own
• Modify our resources and distribute them without attribution
• Use our content to train AI models or for automated data collection

Interactive Tools

Our interactive tools (IEP Goal Builder, Visual Schedule Creator, etc.) generate suggestions and templates based on your inputs. These outputs are starting points — not professional recommendations. Always review generated content with qualified professionals before using it in official settings such as IEP meetings.

User-Submitted Content

If you submit content through our contact form, suggest resources, or share your story with us, you grant us permission to use that content on the site (with your consent and any anonymization you request). We will never share your personal details without explicit permission.

Accuracy and Updates

We strive to keep our content accurate and up to date. However, laws, policies, and best practices change over time. We cannot guarantee that every piece of information on the site reflects the most current guidelines. When in doubt, verify information with your local school district, state education department, or qualified professional.

Limitation of Liability

Spectrum Unlocked is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. We are not liable for any decisions made based on information found on this site. Your use of our content is at your own discretion and risk.

Links to External Sites

Our site links to external organizations, resources, and tools. These links are provided for convenience and do not constitute endorsement. We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, or practices of external sites.

Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms of Service at any time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date. Continued use of the site constitutes acceptance of updated terms.
