Terms of Use

Last updated: April 3, 2026

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY. They constitute a binding agreement between you and DocketBreeze, LLC (“DocketBreeze,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) governing access to and use of our websites, software, and related services, including any associated mobile or desktop applications (collectively, the “Services”). The Services may include optional SMS/text messaging features as described in Section 23. By accessing or using the Services, creating an account, clicking “I agree,” or continuing to use the Services after notice of changes, you agree to these Terms of Use (“Terms”). If you do not agree, do not use the Services.

1. Eligibility and authority

You represent that you are of legal age to form a binding contract in your jurisdiction and are not barred from using the Services under applicable law. If you use the Services on behalf of an entity, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity, and “you” includes that entity.

2. The Services; no legal advice

The Services are provided as a technology platform for organizing, analyzing, and communicating case-related information. DocketBreeze is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice, legal opinions, or legal representation. Nothing in the Services constitutes or substitutes for advice from a qualified attorney licensed in your jurisdiction. You are solely responsible for evaluating and using any output or information from the Services in compliance with law, court rules, ethics rules, and your professional obligations.

3. No attorney–client relationship

Your use of the Services does not create an attorney–client relationship between you and DocketBreeze. Communications with DocketBreeze (including support) are not confidential attorney–client communications unless separately agreed in a signed engagement with counsel.

4. AI, automation, and machine-generated output

The Services may include features that use artificial intelligence, machine learning, automation, summarization, search, chat, or similar technologies. Such outputs may be inaccurate, incomplete, biased, out of date, or inappropriate for your matter. You must independently verify any information before relying on it in filings, communications, advice to clients, court submissions, negotiations, or any decision with legal, financial, professional, or safety implications. You agree not to use outputs as the sole basis for any such decision without appropriate human review.

5. Your account and acceptable use

You are responsible for safeguarding credentials and for all activity under your account. You will not: (a) misuse, disrupt, or attempt unauthorized access to the Services or related systems; (b) use the Services to violate law or third-party rights; (c) upload malicious code; (d) scrape, probe, or overload the Services except as expressly permitted; (e) reverse engineer or circumvent technical limitations except where prohibited by law; (f) use the Services to build a competing service using our proprietary materials; or (g) assist anyone in doing the foregoing. We may suspend or terminate access for conduct that we reasonably believe violates these Terms or threatens security or integrity.

6. User content and license

You retain ownership of content you submit. To operate the Services, you grant DocketBreeze a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, process, reproduce, display, transmit, and create technical copies (including backups and derivative works reasonably necessary for indexing, search, security, and improvement of the Services) solely to provide and improve the Services and as described in our Privacy Policy. You represent you have all rights necessary to grant this license. You are responsible for your content and for compliance with confidentiality, protective orders, professional conduct rules, and client obligations.

7. Confidentiality and sensitive matters

You are solely responsible for determining what information may be uploaded or processed and for configuring access controls. DocketBreeze is not responsible for user misconfiguration, unauthorized sharing, user error, or third-party compromise of your devices or accounts.

8. Third-party services and links

The Services may integrate with or link to third-party services. Third parties’ terms and privacy practices govern their services. We do not control and are not responsible for third-party services.

9. Intellectual property

DocketBreeze and its licensors own the Services, including software, branding, and documentation, protected by intellectual property laws. Except for limited rights to use the Services as permitted here, no rights are granted.

10. Fees and taxes

If you purchase paid offerings, fees are as stated at checkout or in an order form. Taxes may apply. Late or failed payments may result in suspension. Unless otherwise agreed, fees are non-refundable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

11. Disclaimer of warranties

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, QUIET ENJOYMENT, ACCURACY, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, DOCKETBREEZE DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS, BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE, THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED, THAT DATA WILL BE PRESERVED WITHOUT LOSS, OR THAT OUTPUTS WILL BE CORRECT, COMPLETE, OR SUITABLE FOR ANY PURPOSE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN DISCLAIMERS; IN SUCH CASES, DISCLAIMERS APPLY TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWED.

12. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL DOCKETBREEZE OR ITS AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, SUPPLIERS, OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, GOODWILL, DATA, OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SERVICES OR THESE TERMS, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, DOCKETBREEZE’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SERVICES OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID TO DOCKETBREEZE FOR THE SERVICES GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM DURING THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (US $100) IF NO FEES WERE PAID. THESE LIMITATIONS APPLY REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY AND EVEN IF A LIMITED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations; in those jurisdictions, our liability is limited to the fullest extent permitted.

13. Indemnification

You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless DocketBreeze and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your content; (b) your use of the Services; (c) your violation of these Terms or applicable law; or (d) your violation of third-party rights. We may assume exclusive defense of any matter subject to indemnification at your expense, and you will cooperate.

14. Release

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you release DocketBreeze and its affiliates from claims, demands, and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind, known and unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with disputes between you and any third party in connection with the Services or your content.

15. Assumption of risk

You voluntarily assume all risks associated with use of the Services, including reliance on outputs, transmission of information over the internet, and storage in cloud environments.

16. Compliance

You are solely responsible for compliance with all applicable laws, regulations, court rules, professional conduct rules, data protection requirements, export controls, sanctions, and contractual obligations that apply to you or your use of the Services.

17. Professional users

If you are licensed in a regulated profession, you remain solely responsible for supervising any use of the Services in connection with professional services, including duty of competence, confidentiality, conflicts, supervision of non-lawyers where applicable, and obligations to clients and tribunals.

18. Changes to the Services and Terms

We may modify, suspend, or discontinue the Services (in whole or in part) at any time. We may update these Terms by posting a revised version and updating the “Last updated” date. Material changes may include additional notice where required. Continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance. If you do not agree, stop using the Services.

19. Termination

You may stop using the Services at any time. We may suspend or terminate access for breach, risk, legal compliance, or business reasons. Provisions intended to survive (including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitations, indemnity, and dispute resolution) survive termination.

20. Governing law; venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Subject to Section 21, you consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the state and federal courts located in Delaware for disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services, and waive any objection to such jurisdiction or venue.

21. Dispute resolution; arbitration; class waiver

Informal resolution: Before filing a claim, you agree to contact us to seek an informal resolution.

Binding arbitration: If informal resolution fails, any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services will be resolved by binding arbitration administered under the rules of a recognized arbitration provider mutually agreeable to the parties, except either party may seek injunctive or equitable relief in court for intellectual property or misuse of the Services. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS OR PROCEED ON A CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE BASIS. You and DocketBreeze agree that each may bring claims against the other only in an individual capacity and not as a class member in any purported class action.

If this arbitration provision is found unenforceable, the exclusive jurisdiction provision in Section 20 applies. Some jurisdictions prohibit arbitration of certain claims; in such cases, this section applies to the fullest extent permitted.

22. Export; sanctions

You may not use or export the Services in violation of U.S. or other applicable export laws or sanctions.

23. SMS and text messaging

If you use (or another authorized user on your matter enables) features that send or receive SMS or MMS text messages through the Services—including optional communications between authorized users such as attorneys and clients in connection with a case or matter—the following applies.

Consent. You consent to receive text messages at any mobile telephone number you provide, verify, or use with the Services for such features. You represent that you are the subscriber or customary user of that number (or have obtained the consent of the subscriber or customary user) and that the information you provide is accurate. Your consent is not a condition of purchasing any separate product where prohibited by law, but it may be required to use SMS features.

Nature and frequency. Message frequency varies based on your settings, activity, and messages sent by you or other authorized users. Messages may include transactional, operational, and case- or matter-related communications sent through the Services. Although we may support commands such as STOP or HELP where technically and legally appropriate, not all message types may support automated opt-out by reply; supplemental instructions may appear in the Services, in the message, or in account settings.

Costs. Message and data rates may apply. Your wireless carrier (and any applicable roaming provider) may charge fees for SMS, MMS, or mobile data. You are solely responsible for all such charges, including taxes and surcharges. Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.

Delivery and security. Text messaging depends on networks and devices we do not control. Delivery is not guaranteed, timing is not guaranteed, and SMS/MMS may be an insecure channel. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not responsible for interception, loss, delay, failed delivery, routing errors, or disclosure to third parties. You remain solely responsible for compliance with confidentiality obligations, ethics rules, protective orders, court rules, and applicable law governing the content you send or receive and how you use SMS in your practice or matter.

Service providers. We use messaging partners, telecommunications providers, aggregators, and other service providers to send, receive, route, store logs for, and analyze delivery of messages. Those parties may process message content, phone numbers, and related metadata in accordance with their policies and our agreements with them, as further described in our Privacy Policy.

No carrier warranty. Mobile carriers are third-party beneficiaries only to the extent required for industry-standard disclosures; nothing in these Terms creates a contract with your carrier.

Changes and availability. We may modify, limit, suspend, or discontinue SMS features, phone numbers, or supported carriers or regions at any time.

24. Electronic communications and notices

You consent to receive communications electronically. Notices may be posted in the Services or sent to the email associated with your account.

25. Assignment

You may not assign these Terms without our consent. We may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.

26. Severability; entire agreement

If any provision is unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect. These Terms and any order form or enterprise agreement constitute the entire agreement regarding the Services and supersede prior oral or written understandings on the same subject. If conflict between these Terms and a signed enterprise agreement exists, the signed agreement controls for that customer relationship.

27. Third-party beneficiaries

Except as expressly stated, these Terms do not confer rights on any third party.

Important: These Terms are provided for convenience and are not tailored to your specific situation. You should consult independent legal counsel regarding any legal questions.
