1. Agreement
These Terms are an agreement between STEMstarters LLC ("we," "us") and the school or person using Dismissal Magic ("you"). By setting up or using Dismissal Magic, you agree to these Terms. If you're using it on behalf of a school, you confirm you're allowed to do so.
2. What Dismissal Magic does
Dismissal Magic lets school staff mark when buses arrive, call grade groups, and show those calls on classroom screens. It's a communication tool to help dismissal run smoothly.
Your school remains responsible for dismissal. Dismissal Magic does not replace your school's supervision, procedures, staff judgment or emergency plans. Screens can lose their connection, be turned off, or be blocked by a network, so your school should keep a backup way to communicate (such as the intercom or radios).
3. Your school's setup and PIN
- You're responsible for the information you enter and for keeping your School Dashboard PIN private. Anyone with the PIN can call buses and change settings.
- If you think your PIN has been shared with the wrong person, change it in Settings.
- Classroom links show your school's bus calls to anyone who has the link. Share them with your staff only.
4. Free trial, subscriptions and pricing
- Free trial: new schools can try every feature free for 1 month.
- Subscriptions: after the trial, Dismissal Magic is billed per school, per year, at the price shown on our website when you subscribe.
- Founding price: if you subscribe at a founding price, that price stays the same for as long as your subscription stays active.
- Renewal and cancellation: subscriptions renew each year unless you cancel before the renewal date. If you cancel, you can keep using Dismissal Magic until the end of the paid year.
- Refunds: if something isn't working for your school, email us and we'll do our best to make it right.
- If a trial or subscription ends, your setup is saved for a period of time so you can pick up where you left off.
5. Fair use
Please don't:
- Enter student names or other students' personal information. Dismissal Magic isn't designed for it.
- Try to access another school's School Dashboard, guess PINs, or interfere with the service
- Copy, resell or rebuild Dismissal Magic, or use it for anything unlawful or harmful
- Add videos or messages that aren't appropriate for a classroom
We may suspend a school that breaks these rules or puts the service or other schools at risk.
6. Videos and other services
Teachers can choose to play YouTube or Google Drive videos while students wait. Those videos come from their providers, follow those providers' terms, and are the teacher's choice. We don't control their content.
7. Availability and changes
We work hard to keep Dismissal Magic running, but we can't promise it will always be available or error-free. School networks and web filters may block it until your IT team allows dismissalmagic.com and app.dismissalmagic.com. We may improve, change or add features over time.
8. Ownership
Dismissal Magic, its design, buses, logo and code belong to STEMstarters LLC. Your school's information belongs to your school, and you can delete it at any time.
9. Disclaimers and limits
Dismissal Magic is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, to the extent the law allows. To the extent the law allows, STEMstarters LLC is not liable for indirect or consequential damages, and our total liability for any claim related to Dismissal Magic is limited to the amount your school paid us in the 12 months before the claim.
10. Ending use
You can stop using Dismissal Magic and delete your school at any time from Settings. We may end the service for a school that breaks these Terms. We'll give notice if we ever plan to discontinue Dismissal Magic.
11. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina.
12. Changes to these Terms
If we make important changes, we'll update the date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, let schools know in the app.
