Terms of Use
1. About these terms
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) are an agreement between you and the Leaf N Hope Foundation (“we”, “us”), a nonprofit, about your use of Leaf a Day (“the website”) at mood.leafnhope.org. Leaf a Day is part of the Leaf N Hope Foundation. By using the website, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you don’t agree, please don’t use the website.
2. What the website is, and isn’t
Leaf a Day is a free website for noticing how your days feel and staying connected with people you care about. It is not medical, psychological, or professional advice, diagnosis, or treatment, and it does not replace care from a qualified professional. Nothing on the website (including colors, patterns, or messages) is a medical judgment. The Leaf N Hope Foundation does not monitor check-ins and cannot respond to them. The “heavier days” card and friend prompts are general, automatic suggestions, not assessments.
3. Who can use it
You must be at least 13 years old to use the website. If you’re under 18, please use it with the awareness of a parent, guardian, or trusted adult.
4. Your information and content
Your check-ins, notes, and other entries belong to you. Most of it stays on your device (see the Privacy Policy). When you link with friends, you allow us to store and pass along the dates and mood colors (and your first name, if you choose) to the people you’ve linked with, only so the feature works. You can stop at any time.
You’re responsible for keeping your device, backups, and sync code safe. Because there are no accounts, we can’t restore data you’ve deleted or lost. Download a backup from time to time.
5. Linking with friends
- Only send invite links and codes to people you know and trust.
- Linking is always your choice, and either person can stop sharing at any time.
- Be kind. Don’t use the website to pressure, harass, or monitor anyone.
- What a friend sees about you is limited to dates, mood colors, and (optionally) your first name.
6. Acceptable use
Please don’t:
- try to access other people’s data, guess codes, or get around the website’s privacy protections;
- overload, disrupt, or attack the website, or use automated tools against it;
- use the website for anything illegal or harmful.
We may block access from sources that misuse the website.
7. Clover N Leaf and outside resources
Our resource finder, Clover N Leaf (clovernleaf.com), is also a project of the Leaf N Hope Foundation and has its own terms. The website also links to services run by others, such as the 988 Lifeline and Crisis Text Line. We don’t control those outside services and aren’t responsible for their content or availability.
8. Changes and availability
We offer the website free of charge and may change, pause, or stop it, or any feature, at any time. We’ll try to give notice of major changes on the website. If we update these Terms, we’ll change the “Last updated” date above; continuing to use the website means you accept the updated Terms.
9. Disclaimers
The website is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, to the fullest extent allowed by law. We don’t promise that it will always be available, error-free, or that data will never be lost.
10. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent allowed by law, the Leaf N Hope Foundation and its volunteers, staff, and partners are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, or for loss of data, arising from your use of the website. Some places don’t allow these limits, so they may not all apply to you.
11. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws that apply where the Leaf N Hope Foundation is legally based, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.
