Terms of Service

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) constitute a legally binding agreement between you (“User,” “you,” or “your”) and Vrenberg (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) governing your access to and use of the Vrenberg Bar platform, including all associated websites, applications, content, features, tools, and services (collectively, the “Platform” or “Services”).

By joining the waitlist, creating an account, starting a free trial, making a purchase, or otherwise using any Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, and AI Disclaimer, each incorporated herein by reference.

If you do not agree to all of these Terms, you must not access or use the Platform. Your continued use of the Platform following the posting of revised Terms constitutes your acceptance of such changes.

You represent and warrant that you are at least 18 years of age and have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms.

Vrenberg Bar is an AI-powered educational platform designed to assist candidates preparing for United States bar examinations. The Platform provides MBE practice questions, MEE essay practice, MPT performance test practice, an AI tutor, note-taking tools, mock examinations, and related study features. The Platform is currently in a waitlist / pre-launch phase; features and availability may change before and after launch.

Vrenberg is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or associated with the National Conference of Bar Examiners (NCBE), any state board of bar examiners, or any other bar prep provider. MBE, MEE, MPT, and UBE are marks of NCBE. Barbri, Themis, Kaplan, UWorld and other names are trademarks of their respective owners, used only for factual comparison.

The Platform is a supplementary educational tool and does not guarantee, imply, or predict any particular outcome on any bar examination. Actual bar examinations are administered and graded by the relevant examining authorities, and exam results depend on numerous factors beyond the scope of any preparation platform.

To access authenticated features of the Platform, you must create an account by providing accurate, current, and complete information. You agree to update your account information promptly to keep it accurate and complete.

You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. You agree to notify us immediately at support@vrenberg.com of any unauthorized use of your account or any other security breach.

Each account is licensed for use by a single individual. You may not share, transfer, sell, or otherwise make your account available to any other person. Vrenberg reserves the right to suspend or terminate any account that we reasonably believe has been accessed or used in violation of these Terms, including instances of credential sharing, automated access, or fraudulent activity.

4.1 One-Time Purchase

Access to the full Platform is sold as a one-time purchase. Vrenberg Bar is not a subscription: there is no auto-renewal and no recurring billing of any kind. You pay once, and your access runs for the access window described below.

4.2 Pricing Tiers

The founding tier is priced at US$199 and is available to the first 100 founding members. The regular price is US$549. Pricing and tier availability are described on our pricing page and may be updated from time to time; changes do not affect purchases already completed.

4.3 Access Window

Each purchase grants access to the Platform for one (1) year from activation — enough to cover two full bar exam cycles. When the access window ends, access simply expires; you are never charged again automatically.

4.4 Payment Processing

Payment is processed through our third-party payment processor, Stripe. Vrenberg does not store your full payment card details.

4.5 Taxes

Prices may be exclusive of applicable taxes. You are responsible for all taxes, duties, and levies associated with your purchase, except for taxes based on Vrenberg's net income.

4.6 Chargebacks and Payment Disputes

If you initiate a chargeback or payment dispute with your financial institution without first contacting us to resolve the issue, we reserve the right to suspend your account and pursue recovery of the disputed amount plus any associated fees and costs. The refund guarantee in Section 6 exists so that you never need to resort to a chargeback — contact support@vrenberg.com first.

Vrenberg Bar offers a 3-day free trial. No payment method is required to start the trial. When the trial period ends, access simply expires — you are never automatically charged, because we never collect a payment method for the trial in the first place.

Free trial access is provided as-is for evaluation purposes and is limited to one trial per person. Vrenberg reserves the right to modify, limit, or discontinue the free trial offering at any time.

Our guarantee: 30-day full refund from purchase, no questions asked. And if you complete at least 80% of the program, take the bar with Vrenberg, and don't pass, we refund half — within 30 days of your official results.

6.1 30-Day Full Refund

Within 30 days of your purchase, you may request a full refund for any reason, or no reason, by emailing support@vrenberg.com. Refunds are issued to the original payment method.

6.2 50% Pass Guarantee Refund

To claim the 50% refund under the pass guarantee: (a) you must have completed at least 80% of the program, as shown by the program-completion indicator visible on your account dashboard; (b) you must have taken the bar examination while a member; (c) you must not have passed; and (d) you must submit your claim within 30 days of your official results, providing your official bar results notice as proof.

The pass guarantee applies to the purchaser's first bar attempt while a member. Guarantee refunds are issued to the original payment method.

The Platform and all of its contents, features, and functionality — including all software, source code, algorithms, question banks, rule libraries, grading systems, scoring methodologies, adaptive systems, analytics tools, AI tutor systems, user interfaces, designs, text, graphics, logos, and documentation — are owned by or licensed to Vrenberg and are protected by copyright, trademark, trade secret, and other intellectual property laws.

Subject to your compliance with these Terms and payment of applicable fees, Vrenberg grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to access and use the Platform solely for your personal bar examination preparation. This license does not include the right to reproduce, distribute, publicly display, create derivative works from, or commercially exploit any Platform content or functionality.

You agree not to, and will not authorize or permit any third party to: (a) copy, reproduce, distribute, republish, or transmit Platform content; (b) scrape, crawl, index, or systematically download content from the Platform; (c) use any automated system, bot, or tool to access the Platform; (d) share or redistribute any questions, answers, explanations, or other educational content; (e) reverse-engineer, decompile, or otherwise attempt to derive the underlying methods or architecture of any Platform system; (f) remove, alter, or obscure any proprietary notices; or (g) use Platform content to train, develop, or improve any machine learning model or competing product or service.

You retain ownership of the content you create on the Platform, such as your notes and essay submissions. You grant Vrenberg the license necessary to store, process, display, and grade that content in order to provide the Services, as described in our Privacy Policy.

You agree to use the Platform only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. You agree not to:

• Share your account credentials with any third party or allow multiple individuals to access the Platform through a single account.
• Use the Platform in any manner that could disable, damage, overburden, or impair the Platform or interfere with any other user's access.
• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any portion of the Platform, other accounts, systems, or networks connected to the Platform.
• Submit false, misleading, or inaccurate information through the Platform, including in connection with a refund or guarantee claim.
• Use the AI tutor or grading tools to generate content for purposes other than your own personal bar examination preparation.
• Attempt to manipulate or game any scoring, mastery, or analytics system on the Platform.
• Circumvent, disable, or otherwise interfere with security-related features of the Platform.

Vrenberg reserves the right to suspend, restrict, or terminate access to any account for violation of these Terms, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

Core features of the Platform are powered by artificial intelligence, including practice question generation, essay and MPT grading, and the AI tutor. By using these features, you acknowledge and agree that:

• AI-generated content is provided for educational purposes only and may contain errors, inaccuracies, or omissions.
• AI-based grades and scores are estimates and are advisory only. Actual bar examinations are graded by human examiners.
• Nothing on the Platform constitutes legal advice or an authoritative statement of the law.
• Your submissions to AI-powered features (such as essays and tutor messages) are processed by third-party AI providers as described in our Privacy Policy.

For complete details, please review our AI Disclaimer.

Your use of the Platform is subject to our Privacy Policy, which describes how we collect, use, store, and share your personal and usage data, and our Cookie Policy, which describes the cookies and local storage the Platform uses.

By using the Platform, you consent to the collection and processing of your study activity — question attempts, scores, and mastery data — which powers features such as adaptive practice, mastery tracking, and analytics. We do not sell your data.

The Platform and all Services are provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement.

Vrenberg makes no warranty or representation that: (a) the Platform will meet your requirements or expectations; (b) the Platform will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free; (c) any content or data provided through the Platform will be accurate, reliable, or complete; or (d) any score, mastery metric, or analytics output will accurately predict bar examination performance.

No predicted score, mastery metric, mock exam result, or AI-based grade provided by the Platform constitutes a prediction, guarantee, or representation regarding your likelihood of passing any bar examination. Such outputs are educational tools designed to inform your preparation strategy. Your sole and exclusive remedy relating to bar exam outcomes is the pass guarantee refund described in Section 6.

Bar examinations are administered and graded by the relevant state boards of bar examiners and NCBE, which establish all exam content, grading criteria, and passing standards. Vrenberg has no insight into, control over, or affiliation with any bar examination process.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall Vrenberg, its officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates, successors, or assigns be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, punitive, or exemplary damages, including but not limited to damages for loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, or other intangible losses, regardless of the cause of action or the theory of liability, even if Vrenberg has been advised of the possibility of such damages.

Without limiting the foregoing, Vrenberg shall not be liable for any damages arising from: (a) your use of or inability to use the Platform; (b) any errors, inaccuracies, or omissions in Platform content, including AI-generated content; (c) any unauthorized access to or alteration of your account or data; (d) failure to achieve any particular result on any bar examination; or (e) any third-party conduct, content, or services accessed through the Platform.

In no event shall Vrenberg's total aggregate liability to you for all claims arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of the Platform exceed the total amount paid by you to Vrenberg for the Platform.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages; in such jurisdictions, our liability shall be limited to the greatest extent permitted by law.

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Vrenberg, its officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates, and licensors from and against any and all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from or related to: (a) your access to or use of the Platform; (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) your violation of any third-party right, including intellectual property, privacy, or other proprietary rights; or (d) any misrepresentation made by you.

This indemnification obligation will survive the termination or expiration of these Terms and your use of the Platform.

Except for disputes relating to intellectual property rights or claims for injunctive or equitable relief, any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms shall be finally settled by binding arbitration conducted by a single arbitrator in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) then in effect. The seat of arbitration shall be New York, New York, United States.

You and Vrenberg agree that any arbitration or legal proceeding shall be conducted solely on an individual basis and not as a class action, collective action, consolidated action, or representative action. If this class action waiver is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be deemed void.

These Terms and any disputes arising hereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, United States, without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. To the extent that litigation is permissible, you consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in New York County, New York.

We may terminate or suspend your account and access to the Platform for breach of these Terms. Upon termination: (a) your license to use the Platform immediately ceases; (b) provisions of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination shall survive, including intellectual property provisions, disclaimers, limitations of liability, indemnification, and dispute resolution.

You may request deletion of your account and associated data at any time by contacting support@vrenberg.com.

Vrenberg reserves the right to modify these Terms at any time. Material changes will be communicated by posting the updated Terms on the Platform with a revised “Last Updated” date and, where appropriate, by sending notice to the email address associated with your account. Your continued use of the Platform following the posting of modified Terms constitutes your acceptance of the modifications.

If you do not agree to the modified Terms, you must discontinue your use of the Platform.

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, and AI Disclaimer, constitute the entire agreement between you and Vrenberg regarding the Platform and supersede all prior agreements, representations, and understandings.

If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. No failure or delay by Vrenberg in exercising any right or remedy under these Terms shall operate as a waiver thereof.

You may not assign or transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms without our prior written consent. Vrenberg may freely assign or transfer these Terms without restriction.

Vrenberg shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performance due to circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including acts of God, natural disasters, war, governmental action, power failures, internet disruptions, or third-party service provider outages.
