Terms of use

You need your own account, and you are responsible for keeping your login details secure. Accounts are for individual parents and the people they invite; please don't share a login.

ChildApart exists to help families coordinate calmly. Harassment, threats, or using the service to intimidate another person are not permitted, and may result in an account being suspended.

ChildApart begins with a 3 month free trial, after which it costs £7.99 a month for a single parent, £15.98 a month if one parent pays for both parents' accounts, or £87.89 a year. Billing period and cancellation terms are shown before you subscribe, in your account settings, and in the full Terms of Service.

ChildApart can suggest gentler wording before you send a message. It is optional and under your control: nothing is rewritten or cleaned automatically, and no message is sent unless you choose to send it.

Your data remains yours. We store it to provide the service and keep message and decision records verifiable, so an export can show that a record has not been altered since it was created. That is not the same as certifying that the underlying events happened as described, and it is no guarantee that any court, mediator or other body will accept a record — unaltered is not the same as certified true.

You can export your data or ask for your account to be deleted at any time. To protect the accuracy of records both parents rely on, entries created jointly — such as shared calendar events, messages between parents and shared expense records — remain part of the family's shared record unless removed by agreement between both parents. Your private journal, private notes and unshared documents are yours alone to delete.

ChildApart is a practical tool, not legal advice, and it does not replace a lawyer, mediator or court. How records are treated in any proceedings is a matter for the body concerned.

ChildApart is operated by Chase Morgan Solicitors Ltd, registered in England and Wales, company number 17342760. Registered office: 179A Dudley Road, Wolverhampton, WV2 3DR, United Kingdom. Questions about these terms can be sent to help@childapart.com.

The full Terms of Service may be updated as the service develops. Material changes are notified in the app before they take effect.
