Terms of service

How CloudX97 Lesson Planner is meant to work between you and me. Last updated 21 October 2026.

About these terms

These terms are for CloudX97 Lesson Planner, the lesson-planning service for school departments that CloudX97 is preparing. The service is being prepared for its first pilot, which is for school Heads of Department (HODs). These terms describe how the service is intended to work, and they will be reviewed again when it is finished. Using the service means you accept the terms in force at the time. How I handle information is in the Lesson Planner privacy policy.

CloudX97 is a one-person studio in Guyana. “I” and “me” mean CloudX97; “you” means the person using the service and the department they act for.

Who can use it

The service is for school staff acting for their department. You need to be an HOD, or a teacher or reviewer your HOD has added, and you must have the authority to use the lesson-planning material you give the service. It is not for students. Each department is planned to have one HOD account and up to five teacher or reviewer accounts.

Your account and its security

  • The HOD is responsible for the department’s account: who is added, what they can do, and the settings chosen.
  • Each person is responsible for their own sign-in details and for keeping any Google account they connect secure. Do not share an account between people. HODs sign in with an email address and password, and connecting Google Drive is a separate step from signing in.
  • Tell me promptly at hello@cloudx97.com if you think an account has been used by someone else.

Prices

  • Prices are in Guyana dollars. The price of a piece of work is the one the service shows you before you authorise it, and you are charged the price you were shown and accepted.
  • The Lesson Planner page may show example or pilot prices to help you decide whether to take part. The price displayed in the service when you authorise work is the one that applies.
  • Distributing approved plans to teacher copies is free.
  • There is no compulsory subscription.

Estimates, billing and payment

  • Before the service runs billable work, it shows you the price and asks you to authorise it. Work you have not authorised is not billed.
  • You are charged only for billable items that you authorised and that were completed successfully. A failed job, a retry of it, a correction made to fix a problem, or sending an approved plan out again (redistribution) does not create a second charge for the same item.
  • If you think a charge is wrong, write to hello@cloudx97.com and I will review it. A charge made in error will be corrected.
  • During the pilot I will issue an invoice for the work done, and you will pay it by hand, using the payment details on the invoice. The service will not take online payments.

AI-generated content and human review

Lesson plans and reflections are drafted by AI. They can be wrong, incomplete or unsuitable for your class, curriculum or school. I recommend that a qualified person reviews every plan before it is used. You are responsible for what you approve and what is taught.

An AI-generated reflection is a draft. It is not evidence that a lesson or activity took place, and it is not a record of what students did or achieved. The teacher is responsible for making any reflection reflect what actually happened before it is used or kept.

Students’ personal information must not be submitted for AI processing. That includes names and any other details that identify a student. The service is intended to have technical safeguards to help prevent this, but they are not yet built or confirmed, so you must not rely on them. Keeping that information out of what you give the service is your responsibility.

A plan is approved only when an HOD explicitly approves an exact saved version of it. The service does not approve plans automatically. Preparing drafts and distributing approved copies are separate operations: preparation does not approve anything, and distribution is carried out only for plans that have been approved and only when it is authorised. The HOD who approves a version is responsible for it.

Google Drive

To put approved plans in your Drive and to read the schemes of work and other source files you select for it, the service will ask you to connect your Google account and approve Google Drive’s drive.file permission. You can withdraw that permission at any time in your Google account. While it is withdrawn, the service cannot place or update files in your Drive, and any work that depends on that will not complete. You are responsible for the folders you authorise and for who can see them.

Fair use

Please do not use the service to do anything unlawful, to try to get around its limits or its billing, to interfere with it or with other departments’ information, to put in material you have no right to use, or to submit students’ personal information for AI processing. I can suspend an account that is being misused, and I will tell you why when I do.

Availability and maintenance

The pilot will be a first release. It may be unavailable at times, and I may pause it for maintenance or changes, with notice where I can give it. I do not promise that it will always be available or that it will be free of errors.

Your content and mine

Your schemes of work, lesson plans and other content remain yours and your school’s. You give me permission to store and process them, and to send what is needed to the AI provider used for an operation you have authorised, only to run the service for you, as described in the Lesson Planner privacy policy. The software, and the CloudX97 name, remain mine. Whether a school’s rules give the school rights over what its teachers create is between you and your school.

Support and disputes

For help, questions or a problem with an invoice or a plan, write to hello@cloudx97.com or message me on WhatsApp through the contact page. I’ll look into it personally. If we disagree, please tell me what went wrong first so that I can put it right.

Ending use

You can stop using the service at any time, and you can ask me to delete your information as described in the privacy policy. I can end or suspend access if these terms are broken or if I stop offering the service, and I will tell you. Charges for work already completed and authorised stay payable, unless an incorrect charge or a billing dispute about them is resolved in your favour.

Changes

If these terms change, this page changes with it and the date at the top is updated. Changes that affect prices will be shown to you before they apply to new work.
