Terms of Service

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of TransferMaps (the “Service”), operated by TransferMaps (“TransferMaps,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

1. The Service

TransferMaps is a planning tool that helps California community college students explore articulation agreements and build semester-by-semester course plans toward transfer to UC, CSU, and other institutions. The Service is provided for informational and planning purposes only.

2. Not academic advice

TransferMaps does not provide official academic, admissions, or counseling advice. Course articulation, transfer requirements, and admissions criteria change frequently and can vary by institution, major, and catalog year. The information shown may be incomplete, outdated, or inaccurate. You are solely responsible for verifying all requirements with your academic counselor and with the official sources, including ASSIST.org and the receiving institutions, before enrolling in courses or making transfer decisions. We are not responsible for academic, financial, or other consequences resulting from reliance on the Service.

3. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old to use the Service. By using the Service, you represent that you meet this requirement and that the information you provide is accurate.

4. Your account

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. Notify us promptly at rigamarollmedia@gmail.com if you suspect unauthorized use of your account. You agree to provide accurate information and to keep it current.

5. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• Use the Service for any unlawful purpose or in violation of these Terms.
• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service, other users’ accounts, or our systems.
• Interfere with or disrupt the integrity or performance of the Service.
• Scrape, copy, or harvest data from the Service except as expressly permitted.
• Upload content that infringes the rights of others or that you do not have the right to share.

6. Your content

You retain ownership of the plans, course records, and other information you submit to the Service (“Your Content”). You grant us a limited license to store, process, and display Your Content solely to operate and provide the Service to you. You are responsible for ensuring you have the right to submit Your Content, including any transcript information.

7. Third-party data and trademarks

The Service references data and names associated with third parties, including ASSIST.org, the University of California, the California State University, and individual colleges. TransferMaps is independent and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any of them. All third-party names and trademarks are the property of their respective owners.

8. Disclaimer of warranties

The Service is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that the information it provides is accurate or complete.

9. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, TransferMaps and its operators will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, opportunities, or academic standing, arising out of or related to your use of the Service. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Service will not exceed one hundred U.S. dollars (US$100).

10. Termination

You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access if you violate these Terms or if we discontinue the Service. Upon termination, the provisions that by their nature should survive (including disclaimers and limitations of liability) will continue to apply.

11. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date above. Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

12. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. Any disputes arising from these Terms or the Service will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in California.
