6. The Services — No Legal Advice; AI Guide Disclaimer
HeirLight is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice. All tools, templates, forms, self-help documents, and services, including our interactive AI guide, are designed and provided for self-help and general informational purposes only. No attorney-client relationship is created or intended to be created by your use of the Services. If you need legal advice, or have complex or state-specific estate planning needs, you must consult a licensed attorney.
Specific AI Guide Terms: Our AI guide utilizes automated generative artificial intelligence software to assist you. You acknowledge and agree that:
- Automated Outputs: The AI guide generates automated responses based on algorithmic patterns. It does not possess human judgment, cannot evaluate your unique personal financial or family nuances, and may occasionally generate inaccurate, incomplete, misleading, or outdated information (commonly referred to as "hallucinations").
- User Responsibility: You assume full responsibility and risk for your reliance on any outputs, text, answers, or suggestions generated by the AI guide. You are strictly required to review, verify, and confirm the accuracy and legal sufficiency of all finalized estate planning documents before executing them.
- No State-Specific Statutory Guarantees: Estate and probate laws vary by state jurisdiction and change frequently. The AI guide cannot guarantee compliance with the precise statutory requirements of your specific jurisdiction.
7. User Content & Accounts
You are responsible for the information you provide and for safeguarding your account credentials. You retain ownership of any estate planning content or data you upload. Do not upload content that is unlawful, harmful, or violates the rights of others.

16. Governing Law; Jurisdiction
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, excluding its conflict-of-law principles. To the extent that any dispute, claim, or controversy is permitted to be brought in a court of law under these Terms (including any claims brought by users who have timely and validly opted out of arbitration, small claims court matters, or actions to enforce or vacate an arbitration award), you and HeirLight agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue for such actions shall be the state and federal courts located in California, and you hereby waive any objection to personal jurisdiction or inconvenient forum.
17. Dispute Resolution & Binding Arbitration
You agree to first try to resolve any dispute informally by emailing privacy@heirlight.com. If unresolved after 30 days, disputes will be resolved through binding arbitration under AAA's Consumer Arbitration Rules. Arbitration is individual only and will take place in California or virtually.
