Terms of Service

Last updated: 6 November 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of caselaw, the website at https://www.getcaselaw.com and related services (collectively, the "Service"). The Service is operated by GetCaseLaw Limited ("we", "us", "our"), a company registered in England and Wales (company number 17307882) whose registered office is at 25 Marbaix Gardens, Isleworth, TW7 4FD, United Kingdom. By creating an account, subscribing to a paid plan, or otherwise using the Service you agree to these Terms.

These Terms incorporate by reference our Privacy Policy and Acceptable Use Policy.

1. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old, or 16 with the consent of a parent or legal guardian, to use the Service. You must provide accurate registration information and keep your account credentials confidential. You are responsible for all activity on your account.

2. The Service

Caselaw provides AI-assisted UK case law research, revision notes, flashcards, AI-generated case briefs, an AI tutor, past papers and model answers, and related study tools. Case judgments are sourced from The National Archives' Find Case Law service under the Open Justice Licence v2.0.

The Service is a study aid only. It is not legal advice and is not a substitute for professional legal advice or for primary legal research. AI-generated outputs may contain errors or omissions. You should always verify any output against the underlying judgment or statute, which we link to where possible.

SQE materials are not official. Our SQE1 and SQE2 revision materials (practice questions, mocks, notes, readiness estimates and related content) are written independently by Caselaw. Caselaw is not affiliated with, endorsed by, approved by, or connected to the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA), Kaplan, or any official SQE assessment provider. Our questions are not real or past SRA exam questions, and any score, quintile or readiness figure we show is an estimate, not an official SRA result or a guarantee of passing. “SQE” is used only to describe the assessments our materials help you prepare for.

3. Subscription Plans & Billing

3.1 Plans

We offer Free, Pro and Elite plans. Pricing, included features, and usage limits are listed on the Pricing page and form part of these Terms. We may change pricing for new subscribers at any time; existing subscribers are notified at least 30 days before any change to their renewal price.

3.2 Auto-renewal

Paid subscriptions auto-renew at the end of each billing period (monthly or annually) at the then-current rate, until you cancel. By subscribing you authorise us, via our payment processor (Stripe), to charge your payment method on each renewal date.

3.3 Renewal reminders

For annual subscriptions billed through Stripe, we will email you 30 to 20 days and again 10 to 5 days before the renewal date with the renewal price, the renewal date, and instructions for cancellation. Monthly subscribers billed through Stripe get a similar reminder 7 to 3 days before the renewal at every six-month point, and before the price goes up when a discount ends. See our Refund & Cancellation Policy and Subscription Information.

3.4 Cancellation

You can cancel at any time in Settings → Plan Management (which opens the Stripe billing portal) or by emailing [email protected] — no phone calls, no retention process. If you cancel, you keep access until the end of your current billing period; no further charges will be taken. We email you a confirmation. Subscriptions bought through the iOS app are billed by Apple and must be cancelled in your Apple account.

3.5 14-day right to cancel

If you are a consumer, you have a right to cancel a new subscription from the day it starts until the end of the 14th day after that day (the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 for subscriptions started before 1 January 2027, and Part 4, Chapter 2 of the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024 from that date). To exercise this right, send any clear message to [email protected] with your account email and we will refund what you have paid in full, even if you have used the Service, within 14 days of you telling us.

From 1 January 2027 you have the same right, whenever you started, until the end of the 14th day after your first payment following a free trial, your first full-price payment following a discount, and each annual renewal. We email you when it begins. We will refund that payment and any since in full, even if you have used the Service, and your paid access ends when you cancel.

3.6 7-day money-back guarantee

Separately to the statutory cooling-off right, we offer a 7-day no-questions-asked refund on any new monthly or annual paid subscription. Email [email protected] within 7 days of purchase.

3.7 One-time purchases (past papers)

Past paper answer packs, paper packs, module bundles, and lifetime bundles (collectively "One-Time Purchases") are sold as digital content. At checkout we ask you to expressly consent to immediate access and acknowledge that you lose the 14-day right to cancel under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 once access begins. Before access begins, you can cancel within 14 days for a full refund. Your rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 if content is faulty are not affected. See our Refund & Cancellation Policy.

3.8 Failed payments

If a subscription payment fails, we will retry the charge for up to 7 days while keeping your account in "past_due" state. If the payment cannot be collected, your access reverts to the Free plan; your data is retained.

4. Free Trial

Where offered, paid plans include a 7-day free trial. You may cancel at any time during the trial; no charge will be taken. After 7 days, the subscription auto-renews at the plan rate, less any discount code that applies to your first payment. We limit free trials to one per customer (identified by Stripe customer record).

5. Acceptable Use

Your use of the Service is subject to our Acceptable Use Policy. In summary, you must not scrape the case database, resell access, share your account, attempt to extract or reverse-engineer AI prompts or outputs, or use the Service to abuse, harass or generate unlawful content.

6. Intellectual Property

6.1 Our content

AI-generated content, revision notes, flashcards, and model answers (collectively "Caselaw Content") are owned by us and licensed to you for personal, non- commercial study use only. You may not redistribute Caselaw Content publicly or commercially.

6.2 Source materials

UK court judgments are reproduced from The National Archives' Find Case Law service under the Open Justice Licence v2.0. Contains information licensed under the Open Justice - Licence v2.0. Judgments are shown as published; we do not suggest that The National Archives or the courts endorse Caselaw or have any official connection with it. Legislation is reproduced from legislation.gov.uk under the Open Government Licence v3.0. We do not reproduce textbook content.

6.3 Your content

Content you create on the Service (private notes, custom flashcards, annotations) remains yours. You grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, store and display that content solely to provide the Service to you. We do not use your private notes to train AI models.

7. AI Outputs & Disclaimer

AI-generated case briefs, summaries, key lines, for-and-against analysis, model answers, and AI tutor responses are produced using third-party large language models. Outputs may contain factual errors, mis-attributions, hallucinated citations, or out-of-date information. You are responsible for verifying any AI output against the linked judgment or statute before relying on it. Caselaw is an educational tool. It does not provide legal advice and is not a regulated legal service.

Where you interact with AI features, you are interacting with an automated system. This is disclosed throughout the product in line with the EU AI Act's transparency requirements.

8. Limitation of Liability

Nothing in these Terms limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud, or for any liability that cannot be excluded as a matter of UK law. Subject to that, our total liability for any claim arising out of or in connection with these Terms or the Service is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

We are not liable for: (a) inaccurate AI outputs; (b) academic outcomes (grades, exam results); (c) any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive losses; or (d) loss of profits, revenue, data, or goodwill.

9. Termination

You may close your account at any time in Settings. We may suspend or terminate your account if you breach these Terms or our Acceptable Use Policy, with or without notice depending on the severity of the breach. On termination, paid subscriptions are not refunded except as required by law or under sections 3.5–3.6.

10. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be notified by email at least 14 days before they take effect. Continued use of the Service after the effective date constitutes acceptance.

11. Governing Law & Jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. The courts of England and Wales have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of or in connection with these Terms, except that consumer claimants may bring claims in their local courts as permitted by applicable consumer protection law.

11A. Common Room — user-generated content

The Common Room is the user-generated discussion area of caselaw, accessed at /common-room and per-university hubs at /notes/[uni]/common-room. These additional terms apply when you post or interact in the Common Room.

11A.1 Your content, your responsibility

You retain copyright and any other intellectual property rights in content you post (your "Posts"). By posting you confirm that:

  • The Post is your own work, or you have all necessary rights and licences to post it.
  • The Post is not extracted, paraphrased, or reproduced from copyrighted course material (lecturer slides, supervision essays, mark schemes, problem-question handouts, textbook extracts) without the copyright holder's permission.
  • The Post does not solicit or share answers to assessed work that is currently being marked by your institution. Posting current-cycle answers is treated as facilitating academic misconduct under your university's regulations and is grounds for immediate removal and account suspension.
  • The Post is not defamatory, harassing, threatening, or otherwise unlawful.

11A.2 Licence you grant to caselaw

By posting in the Common Room you grant caselaw a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, sub-licensable licence to host, display, store, reproduce, modify, and create derivative works from your Post for the purposes of (a) operating the Service, (b) generating AI-assisted study materials including quizzes, flashcards, past-paper questions and topic hubs, and (c) training and improving caselaw's AI tools.

You may opt out of AI training on a per-post basis. Posts you delete will not be used in AI training runs commencing after the deletion. Models trained before deletion will not be retrained, but the deleted Post will not be retained as a training input thereafter. We will never sell your Posts to a third party.

11A.3 Defamation Act 2013, section 5 — notice of complaint

Caselaw operates the Common Room as a website operator within the meaning of section 5 of the Defamation Act 2013. If you believe a Post is defamatory of you, you may serve a notice of complaint by completing the form at /legal/common-room-complaint. We will:

  • Acknowledge a properly-completed notice within 24 hours of receipt.
  • Take action — remove the Post, post the complaint alongside it pending poster response, or reject the complaint with reasons — within 48 hours of receipt of a properly-completed notice.
  • Where required by law, disclose the identifying information we hold about the poster (the email address provided at registration, the email address held at the time of posting, and the IP address recorded at the time of posting) on receipt of a valid legal demand.

11A.4 Copyright takedown

If you believe content in the Common Room infringes your copyright, please send a notice to [email protected] identifying the infringing content (URL or thread ID), the original work, and your contact details. We aim to act on validated notices within 48 hours.

11A.5 Moderation and removal

We may, at our sole discretion, remove, hide, edit metadata of, or disable any Post or account; suspend or terminate access; or refuse new registrations, where we reasonably believe a Post or user violates these Terms, our Acceptable Use Policy, applicable law, or where required by a properly-issued complaint or court order. Repeat violations result in permanent ban.

11A.6 No liability for user content

Caselaw does not endorse, verify, or guarantee the accuracy of Posts. Posts represent the views of their authors. Reliance on a Post for legal study, professional, or any other purpose is at your own risk. The Common Room is a study aid, not legal advice. Caselaw is not a law firm.

12. Contact

Questions, complaints, or refund requests: [email protected].

For complaints about how we handle your personal data, you may also contact the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at https://ico.org.uk.

These Terms are an interim version pending review by external counsel. We are committed to operating the Service in line with UK consumer law (Consumer Rights Act 2015, DMCC Act 2024) and UK GDPR.
