FOCAL PROFESSIONAL
Subscription Terms
Effective July 26, 2026 · Version 2026-07-26.1
These Subscription Terms are between the purchasing customer and Dancel Legal Consulting, the seller and provider of Focal.
1. Subscription and named-user access
A Focal Professional subscription gives one named person a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the hosted Focal workspace while the subscription is active. The account may be used by that person on supported work computers and may not be shared, resold, sublicensed, or used to provide access to another person. Access is tied to the signed-in email shown before checkout. Contact subscription support before changing that email or buying under a different account. Focal Professional is offered only for business or professional use. By purchasing, you represent that you are acquiring Focal for use in your trade, business, or profession and, if you act for an organization, that you have authority to bind it.
2. Billing, renewal, and cancellation
The selected monthly or annual price, taxes, and billing interval are shown before payment. Subscriptions renew automatically until canceled through the billing portal. Cancellation stops future renewal and access continues through the already-paid period. Except where law requires otherwise or the checkout states otherwise, paid subscription charges are non-refundable.
3. Local documents and customer responsibility
Focal processes selected documents in the browser and does not provide cloud document storage. You are responsible for having authority to use every document, protecting source files, saved projects, and downloads, and following the security rules that apply to the matter. Focal is not a redaction tool.
4. Required human review
Marker recognition and cleanup can miss, split, combine, or misclassify content. Keep the original PDF as the authoritative source. A qualified person must compare every selected passage and finished output with the original before presentation, filing, production, or sharing.
5. Product boundaries
Focal is document-presentation software, not legal advice, graphics-consulting services, courtroom operation, a records system, or a compliance certification. Detection, cleanup, compatibility, and court acceptance are not guaranteed. Current supported formats, browsers, devices, and safety limits apply.
6. Suspension and service changes
Access may be paused to address nonpayment, chargebacks, disputes, account sharing, security risk, unlawful use, or material violation of these terms. Product features and supported environments may change as Focal is maintained; material subscription changes will be communicated through the account or purchasing channel.
7. Warranty disclaimer
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, AND EXCEPT FOR ANY EXPRESS COMMITMENT STATED IN THESE TERMS, FOCAL IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” DANCEL LEGAL CONSULTING DISCLAIMS ALL IMPLIED AND STATUTORY WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING, USAGE, OR TRADE PRACTICE. DANCEL LEGAL CONSULTING DOES NOT WARRANT THAT FOCAL WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE; IDENTIFY EVERY HIGHLIGHT; EXCLUDE EVERY UNMARKED PASSAGE; PERFECTLY REMOVE PHYSICAL MARKER; PRESERVE EVERY CHARACTER OR IMAGE; OR PRODUCE OUTPUT ACCEPTED BY ANY COURT, CLIENT, OR OTHER THIRD PARTY. NOTHING IN THESE TERMS EXCLUDES A WARRANTY OR REMEDY THAT CANNOT LAWFULLY BE EXCLUDED.
8. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NEITHER PARTY WILL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, BUSINESS, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO FOCAL OR THESE TERMS, EVEN IF ADVISED THAT SUCH DAMAGES WERE POSSIBLE. EACH PARTY’S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO FOCAL OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) $1,000 OR (B) THE AMOUNTS PAID OR PAYABLE FOR FOCAL DURING THE 12 MONTHS IMMEDIATELY BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM. THESE LIMITATIONS APPLY REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE), OR STRICT LIABILITY. THEY DO NOT APPLY TO THE CUSTOMER’S PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS, EITHER PARTY’S FRAUD, GROSS NEGLIGENCE, OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, OR LIABILITY THAT CANNOT LAWFULLY BE LIMITED.
9. Mississippi law and Harrison County venue
These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or Focal are governed by Mississippi law, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. Except where applicable law requires another forum, the state courts located in Harrison County, Mississippi, and, when federal subject-matter jurisdiction exists, the United States District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi, Southern Division, have exclusive jurisdiction and venue. Each party consents to personal jurisdiction in those courts.
10. Severability
If a court holds any provision of these Terms unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted or severed to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will remain in effect.
