Terms & Conditions

Last updated: 22 April 2026

Agreement to these terms

We are The Human Collab, doing business as The Human Co.(“Company,” “we,” “us,” “our”).

We operate the website collab.thehumanco.org (the “Site”), along with the related email signup and lead-magnet-delivery systems that refer or link to these legal terms (together, the “Services”).

You can contact us by email at paul@thehumanco.org, or by post at 80 Stradbroke Road, Sheffield, South Yorkshire S13 8SQ, United Kingdom.

These Legal Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you (whether personally or on behalf of an entity) and The Human Collab concerning your access to and use of the Services. By accessing the Services, you agree to be bound by these Legal Terms. If you do not agree, you must stop using the Services.

We may update these Legal Terms from time to time. The modified terms become effective when posted on this page, with the “Last updated” date at the top revised accordingly. By continuing to use the Services after changes take effect, you agree to the updated terms. The Services are intended for users who are at least 18 years old.

Important note on scope

These Terms govern your use of the Co.llab website — specifically, your right to browse the site, read our content, sign up for our email waitlist, and receive our free AI Prompt Toolkit for Learning Professionals.

The Co.llab desktop application — currently in closed beta and launching in summer 2026 — will be governed by a separate end-user licence agreement (EULA) published at launch. Key commitments for that licence are summarised in Section 5 (Products) below so you know what to expect.

1. Our Services

The Services currently consist of: this website and its content, the email signup and waitlist system, and the delivery of the free AI Prompt Toolkit for Learning Professionals to visitors who sign up.

The information provided when using the Services is not intended for distribution to or use by any person or entity in any jurisdiction or country where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or regulation. Those who access the Services from other locations do so on their own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local laws.

The Services are not tailored to comply with industry-specific regulations (HIPAA, FISMA, etc.), so if your interactions would be subject to such laws, you may not use the Services.

2. Intellectual property rights

Our content

We own or license all intellectual property rights in the Services — including the source code, website design, copy, blog content, images, graphics, logos, brand marks, and the AI Prompt Toolkit for Learning Professionals. Our content and marks are protected by copyright and trademark laws in the United Kingdom and worldwide.

Subject to your compliance with these Legal Terms, we grant you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to access the Services and to download or print portions of the Content for your personal, non-commercial use or internal business purpose.

The AI Prompt Toolkit for Learning Professionals is provided to you for personal and internal business use. You may use the prompts freely in your own work. You may not republish, resell, or redistribute the toolkit itself to third parties.

Any breach of these intellectual property rights will constitute a material breach of our Legal Terms and your right to use the Services will terminate immediately.

Your submissions

By sending us any question, comment, suggestion, idea, feedback, or other information about the Services, you agree we may use that feedback freely without compensation or attribution to you. You confirm that such submissions are original to you and do not violate any third party’s rights.

3. User representations

By using the Services, you represent and warrant that:

  1. All information you provide (including your email address) will be true, accurate, current, and complete;
  2. You will maintain the accuracy of such information and update it promptly when necessary;
  3. You have the legal capacity to agree to these Legal Terms;
  4. You are not a minor in the jurisdiction in which you reside;
  5. You will not access the Services through automated or non-human means (bots, scripts, scraping);
  6. You will not use the Services for any illegal or unauthorised purpose;
  7. Your use of the Services will not violate any applicable law or regulation.

If you provide information that is untrue, inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated, we have the right to suspend or terminate your use of the Services.

4. User registration

The Co.llab website does not currently require you to create an account or register. Some features (the waitlist signup form) ask you to submit your email address so we can send you the prompt pack and notify you when Co.llab launches. Your email submission is not a contractual commitment; you can unsubscribe at any time.

5. Products and future commitments

Current state: The Co.llab website currently does not sell or distribute any paid product. Submitting your email gives you access to the free AI Prompt Toolkit for Learning Professionals. No payments are processed through this Site at this time.

Future product: The Co.llab desktop application — available for purchase in summer 2026 — is a separate software product governed by a separate end-user licence agreement (EULA) to be published at launch. The following summarises key commitments for that product so you know what to expect:

  • One-time purchase, no subscription. You buy the software once; there is no recurring charge. This is core to the Co.llab positioning and will not change.
  • Pricing in GBP (British Pounds). All prices are quoted and charged in GBP.
  • Founder pricing of £199 for the first 50 purchases. Standard pricing of £299 thereafter. Prices include all VAT where applicable.
  • 14-day refund policy on first-time purchases. If you are not satisfied within 14 days of purchase, email us for a full refund. Refunds apply to the original purchase only; subsequent purchases and major-version upgrades are final.
  • Per-user licence, up to 2 personally-owned machines. You may install and use Co.llab on up to two machines that you personally own (e.g. a work laptop and a home desktop).
  • Non-transferable licence. The licence is personal to you and may not be sold, gifted, or otherwise transferred to a third party.
  • Free updates within your major version. All updates within the major version you purchased (v1.x updates if you purchased v1) are free for the lifetime of that version. New major versions (e.g. v2) may be offered as a separate purchase, typically at a reduced upgrade price for existing owners.
  • Offline-mode commitment. Because Co.llab runs locally on your machine using your own AI API key, the software does not require our servers to function. In the event that The Human Collab ceases operation or discontinues Co.llab, we commit to providing a final offline-mode update ensuring previously-purchased licences continue to work. No promise of future support, updates, or bug fixes is made beyond this.
  • User ownership of generated content. Any course, scenario, assessment, or other output you create using Co.llab is 100% owned by you. The Human Collab claims no rights over the content you generate. You are free to sell, license, distribute, or modify your output as you see fit.
  • Bring-your-own-key (BYOK). Co.llab currently uses Anthropic's Claude models only and requires you to provide your own Anthropic API key. AI-usage charges are incurred directly between you and Anthropic. We do not process AI payments and are not responsible for changes in Anthropic pricing, availability, or terms. Support for other AI providers may be added in future updates.

These commitments become binding when the Co.llab desktop application launches and the full EULA is published. Until then they represent our stated intent.

6. Purchases and payment

No purchases are processed through the Site at this time. When the Co.llab desktop application launches, purchase terms will be published in the EULA and linked from this section.

7. Subscriptions

Not applicable.The Co.llab website and the forthcoming Co.llab desktop application do not operate on a subscription basis. Co.llab is a one-time-purchase product with no recurring fees, no auto-renewal, and no paywall. This will not change — it is a core commitment of the product’s positioning.

8. Refunds policy

The Co.llab website does not currently process sales. When the Co.llab desktop application launches, the refund policy will be:

We offer a 14-day full refund on your first-time purchase of Co.llab. If you’re not satisfied within 14 days of purchase, email us at paul@thehumanco.org with your receipt for a full refund. Refunds apply to the original first-time purchase only; subsequent purchases and major-version upgrades are final.

The free AI Prompt Toolkit for Learning Professionals is delivered at no cost and therefore has no refund policy.

9. Software licence

No paid software is currently delivered through the Services. When the Co.llab desktop application becomes available, it will be governed by a full end-user licence agreement (EULA) that reflects the commitments summarised in Section 5. The EULA will grant you a non-exclusive, revocable, personal, non-transferable licence to use the software on up to two machines you personally own.

The software will be provided “AS IS” without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. You accept any and all risk arising out of use or performance of any software.

10. Prohibited activities

You may not access or use the Services for any purpose other than that for which we make the Services available. As a user of the Services, you agree not to:

  • Systematically retrieve data or content from the Services to create a collection, database, or directory without our written permission;
  • Trick, defraud, or mislead us or other users, especially in any attempt to learn sensitive account information;
  • Circumvent, disable, or interfere with security-related features of the Services;
  • Disparage, tarnish, or otherwise harm us or the Services;
  • Use any information obtained from the Services to harass, abuse, or harm another person;
  • Use the Services inconsistently with any applicable laws or regulations;
  • Engage in unauthorised framing of or linking to the Services;
  • Upload or transmit viruses, Trojans, malicious code, or any material that disrupts the Services;
  • Engage in automated use of the system (scripts, bots, data mining, scraping, harvesting email addresses);
  • Delete the copyright or other proprietary rights notice from any Content;
  • Attempt to impersonate another user;
  • Interfere with, disrupt, or create an undue burden on the Services or the networks connected to the Services;
  • Harass, threaten, or intimidate us or our staff;
  • Copy or adapt the Services’ software (HTML, JavaScript, backend code);
  • Except as permitted by applicable law, decipher, decompile, disassemble, or reverse engineer any software we provide;
  • Use the Services as part of any effort to compete with us;
  • Use the Services to advertise or offer to sell goods and services not authorised by us.

11. User-generated contributions

Not applicable. The Co.llab website does not accept user-submitted content beyond the email address you provide at signup. There is no forum, comment section, review system, or content-upload mechanism. If we add such functionality in the future, these Legal Terms will be updated.

12. Social media

Not applicable. The Co.llab website does not offer social-media login or account linking. You do not need a Facebook, X, Google, or other social account to use the Services.

13. Third-party websites and content

The Services may link to third-party websites (for example: The Human Stack on Substack, Gumroad, LinkedIn, competitor authoring tools referenced in our blog). Such third-party websites and content are not investigated or monitored by us, and we are not responsible for their content, accuracy, opinions, reliability, or privacy practices. Inclusion of a link does not imply endorsement.

If you decide to leave the Services via a third-party link, you do so at your own risk, and these Legal Terms no longer govern. You should review the policies of any third-party site before providing them with data or making purchases.

14. Advertisers

Not applicable. The Co.llab website does not display third-party advertising, retargeting pixels, or sponsored content.

15. Services management

We reserve the right, but not the obligation, to: (1) monitor the Services for violations of these Legal Terms; (2) take appropriate legal action against anyone who violates the law or these Legal Terms; (3) refuse, restrict, or disable access to the Services; and (4) otherwise manage the Services to protect our rights and property and to facilitate the proper functioning of the Services.

16. Privacy policy

We care about data privacy and security. Please review our Privacy Policy. By using the Services, you agree to be bound by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Legal Terms. The Services are hosted in the United Kingdom. If you access the Services from another region, your continued use constitutes consent to your data being transferred to and processed in the United Kingdom.

17. Term and termination

These Legal Terms remain in full force and effect while you use the Services. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion and without notice or liability, to deny access to the Services (including blocking certain IP addresses) for any reason, including breach of these Legal Terms or applicable law.

In addition to terminating access, we reserve the right to take appropriate legal action, including pursuing civil, criminal, and injunctive redress.

18. Modifications and interruptions

We reserve the right to change, modify, or remove the contents of the Services at any time or for any reason at our sole discretion without notice. We have no obligation to update any information on our Services. We also reserve the right to modify or discontinue all or part of the Services without notice at any time. We will not be liable to you or any third party for any modification, price change, suspension, or discontinuance of the Services.

We cannot guarantee the Services will be available at all times. We may experience hardware, software, or other problems or need to perform maintenance related to the Services, resulting in interruptions, delays, or errors. You agree we have no liability for any loss, damage, or inconvenience caused by your inability to access or use the Services during any downtime or discontinuance.

Important note on the desktop application: Because the forthcoming Co.llab desktop application runs locally on your machine with your own AI API key, your ability to use a purchased licence does not depend on our servers being operational. We commit to providing an offline-mode update in the event of a service wind-down, ensuring purchased licences remain functional.

19. Governing law

These Legal Terms are governed by and interpreted following the laws of the United Kingdom, and the use of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. If your habitual residence is in the EU, and you are a consumer, you additionally possess the protection provided to you by the mandatory provisions of the law of your country of residence. The Human Collab and yourself both agree to submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the United Kingdom, meaning you may make a claim to defend your consumer protection rights in regards to these Legal Terms in the United Kingdom, or in the EU country in which you reside.

20. Dispute resolution

If you have a dispute, please contact us at paul@thehumanco.org in the first instance so we can attempt to resolve it directly. The European Commission provides an online dispute resolution platform you may also access.

21. Corrections

There may be information on the Services that contains typographical errors, inaccuracies, or omissions — including descriptions, pricing, availability, and other information. We reserve the right to correct any errors, inaccuracies, or omissions and to change or update the information at any time, without prior notice.

22. Disclaimer

THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN AS-IS AND AS-AVAILABLE BASIS. YOU AGREE THAT YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES WILL BE AT YOUR SOLE RISK. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES AND YOUR USE THEREOF, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE MAKE NO WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS ABOUT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE SERVICES’ CONTENT, AND WE ASSUME NO LIABILITY OR RESPONSIBILITY FOR: (1) ERRORS, MISTAKES, OR INACCURACIES OF CONTENT AND MATERIALS; (2) PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE RESULTING FROM YOUR ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SERVICES; (3) ANY UNAUTHORISED ACCESS TO OR USE OF OUR SERVERS AND/OR ANY PERSONAL INFORMATION STORED THEREIN; (4) ANY INTERRUPTION OR CESSATION OF TRANSMISSION; (5) ANY BUGS, VIRUSES, OR THE LIKE WHICH MAY BE TRANSMITTED TO OR THROUGH THE SERVICES BY ANY THIRD PARTY; OR (6) ANY ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN ANY CONTENT OR FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE INCURRED AS A RESULT OF THE USE OF ANY CONTENT POSTED, TRANSMITTED, OR OTHERWISE MADE AVAILABLE VIA THE SERVICES.

23. Limitations of liability

IN NO EVENT WILL WE OR OUR DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOST PROFIT, LOST REVENUE, LOSS OF DATA, OR OTHER DAMAGES ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, OUR TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY CAUSE WHATSOEVER AND REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF THE ACTION WILL AT ALL TIMES BE LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT YOU PAID, IF ANY, FOR YOUR CO.LLAB LICENCE. FOR USERS OF THE FREE SERVICES (THE WEBSITE AND PROMPT PACK) WHO HAVE NOT PURCHASED A CO.LLAB LICENCE, OUR TOTAL LIABILITY IS LIMITED TO £100.

Certain UK and international laws do not allow limitations on implied warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain damages. If those laws apply to you, some or all of the above disclaimers or limitations may not apply to you, and you may have additional rights.

24. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold us harmless — including our subsidiaries, affiliates, and all of our respective officers, agents, partners, and employees — from and against any loss, damage, liability, claim, or demand, including reasonable legal fees, made by any third party due to or arising out of: (1) your use of the Services; (2) breach of these Legal Terms; (3) any breach of your representations and warranties set forth in these Legal Terms; or (4) your violation of the rights of a third party, including intellectual property rights.

25. User data

We will maintain certain data that you transmit to the Services (your email address and related signup data) for the purpose of managing the Services, as described in our Privacy Policy. Although we perform regular routine backups of data, you are solely responsible for all data that you transmit or that relates to any activity you have undertaken using the Services.

26. Electronic communications, transactions, and signatures

Visiting the Services, sending us emails, and completing online forms constitute electronic communications. You consent to receive electronic communications, and you agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications we provide electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communication be in writing. You hereby agree to the use of electronic signatures, contracts, orders, and other records, and to electronic delivery of notices, policies, and records of transactions initiated or completed by us or via the Services.

28. Miscellaneous

These Legal Terms and any policies or operating rules posted by us on the Services constitute the entire agreement and understanding between you and us. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Legal Terms shall not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. These Legal Terms operate to the fullest extent permissible by law.

We may assign any or all of our rights and obligations to others at any time. We shall not be responsible or liable for any loss, damage, delay, or failure to act caused by any cause beyond our reasonable control. If any provision of these Legal Terms is determined to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that provision is deemed severable and does not affect the validity of the remaining provisions. There is no joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship created between you and us as a result of these Legal Terms or use of the Services.
