Terms of Service

Acceptance
By using Parity, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the service.
Not legal advice
Parity helps you organize your facts and prepare a draft request for review. You review, complete, sign, and submit it. Self-help document preparation. Not a law firm. No legal advice or representation. Parity uses software rules and, for AI drafts, AI to organize the information you provide; no attorney reviews your draft. The drafts, checklists, and routing information Parity generates are based on the information you provide and published source materials. We are not a law firm, and using Parity does not create an attorney-client relationship between you and Parity, its founders, or its contractors.
If you need legal advice, please consult a licensed California attorney.
AI and fill-in drafts
When Parity produces an AI draft, it is generated based on your inputs and our system's understanding of California parity law. Although we apply automated post-processing and human-curated guardrails, AI output can contain errors. You are responsible for reviewing the draft for accuracy, editing as needed, and deciding whether and how to submit it.
For AI drafts only: Parity instructs its AI to leave out facts it thinks could weaken my request without marking those omissions, so I need to check the draft against what I wrote before using it.
If Parity labels a document “Built only from your facts · no AI · blanks marked,” it was assembled by software rules without an AI call. It uses only the facts you supplied and visibly marks missing details for you to complete.
How citations are verified
Every citation identifier is checked against a human-curated official-source allowlist, and deterministic checks reject known applicability or characterization conflicts. These checks do not verify every legal proposition; review each citation before sending.
No guarantee of outcome
California's mental health parity laws give you the right to file a grievance, but they do not guarantee that your insurer will reverse its decision. Parity makes no representation about the likelihood of success of any filing generated by the service. Outcomes depend on the facts of your case, the documentation you provide, and decisions made by your insurer and California regulators.
Not for emergencies
Parity is a document-preparation tool, not an emergency service, and it is not equipped to help in a crisis. If you or someone you're helping is in immediate danger, call 911. If you're in emotional distress or crisis, call or text 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, any time, free.
Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old to use Parity on your own behalf. If you are using Parity for a minor, you must be that minor's parent or legal guardian, filing on their behalf with proper authority to do so.
Your responsibilities
By using Parity, you agree that you are responsible for:
- Providing accurate information when answering Path Finder questions.
- Reviewing the generated draft for accuracy before signing or sending it. AI drafts may contain errors; no-AI fill-ins use only your supplied facts and mark missing details. You are responsible for confirming the facts are correct.
- Verifying the routing address against your denial letter.
- Mailing or transmitting the letter to your insurer once you've signed it. Parity does not file on your behalf.
- Keeping copies of everything you send and receive.
- Meeting any filing deadlines that apply to your case.
Launch access
While open free mode is active, anyone using the full product may open one complete Single Letter packet free. No payment details are required. An email address is required to send the private packet-and-case recovery link after access is granted. That recovery email does not enroll you in reminders or marketing.
Parity keeps its server copy of the generated packet for up to 7 days from generation, not indefinitely. Downloaded copies are yours and do not expire. The linked case page keeps route, dates, checklist, and next-step metadata for 12 months after your last visit or saved update, but it does not keep the packet text or clinical story after the 7-day packet window.
Corrections
Parity collects no payment in open free mode. If a free packet needs correction, you may ask Parity to correct a product error or regenerate the packet once.
Case pages, reminders, and check-ins
A packet includes a content-minimized recovery case page, and any Parity user can create the same kind of case page free, reachable through a unique private link. It tracks an event-based timeline. Exact dates appear only when you provide the event that starts the relevant clock. Reminders are a convenience, not a legal safeguard — meeting your deadlines is ultimately your responsibility.
We may also email you a short, optional check-in asking how your case turned out (approved, denied, or still waiting). Answering is entirely up to you and never affects your access to anything in your packet. If you choose to share a testimonial, we only use it with your explicit opt-in.
Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Use Parity to draft submissions on behalf of someone who has not authorized you to do so.
- Submit knowingly false information through the Path Finder.
- Attempt to interfere with, scrape, or reverse-engineer the service.
- Resell or rebrand Parity-generated drafts as your own product.
Limitation of liability
Parity is provided “as is.” To the maximum extent permitted by law, Parity is not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the service. Parity's aggregate liability for any direct damages is limited to the amount you paid for the service in the 12 months preceding the claim.
Governing law and disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these terms or your use of Parity will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in California.
Before anything formal: email support@parity.care and give us 30 days to make it right. Nothing in these terms limits your right to bring a claim in small claims court, or to complain to any regulator.
Changes
We may update these terms from time to time. Continued use of Parity after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
Contact
Parity is built and run by one person — a founder who fought these denials herself, covering the real costs of running it. Email will always reach a human. Questions about these terms can go to hello@parity.care.
