2. Free Resources & Downloads
Free resources come with the same care and protections as purchased Teacher Trap resources. You’re welcome to download and use Teacher Trap freebies for your personal classroom use just as you would a purchased resource. Making a resource available for free doesn’t mean that it is free from copyright or Terms of Use.

Unless otherwise stated, free Teacher Trap Content is provided under the same personal classroom use license and is subject to the same applicable Terms of Use as purchased Teacher Trap Content.
Downloading or accessing Content for free does not transfer ownership, copyright, or other intellectual property rights. Free Content may not be publicly posted, broadly distributed, resold, republished, or otherwise used in ways prohibited by these Terms.
3. School-Wide & Multi-User Licenses
School-Wide Licenses are available for Teacher Trap resources, courses, and programs. If you’re interested in using Teacher Trap materials across your school, please contact kady@teachertrap.com for information about School-Wide Licensing for a specific resource, course, or program.
School-Wide License Terms
Program or Course School-Wide License: Provides teachers employed at the licensed campus during the applicable school year with individual lifetime access to the selected program or course. The license also permits campus-wide use of the program, course, and included materials for professional development during that school year.
Resource School-Wide License: Provides the licensed campus with lifetime use of the selected resource. The resource may be used by teachers on that campus in their classrooms and for campus-based professional development.
School-Wide Licenses apply only to the campus and Teacher Trap Content specified in the applicable license and are subject to any additional terms provided at the time of purchase.
A School-Wide License grants permission to use Teacher Trap Content according to the terms of that license. It does not transfer ownership or copyright or grant permission to resell, publicly distribute, republish, sublicense, or create materials for distribution from Teacher Trap Content.
4. Online Programs, Accounts & Digital Access
Purchases made through TeacherTrap.com, including programs, courses, and downloadable resources, include access for the lifetime of the applicable program or resource unless otherwise stated at the time of purchase.

If a program or resource with lifetime access is ever retired, Teacher Trap will provide advance notice and guarantee at least one full year of continued access from the retirement notification date or offer a refund.
Account & Access Terms
Access to online Teacher Trap Content is provided to the purchaser or other authorized user according to the terms of the applicable purchase or license. Individual accounts, usernames, passwords, login credentials, and private access links may not be transferred or shared with another individual for the purpose of providing access to Teacher Trap Content.
Unless otherwise stated at the time of purchase, “lifetime access” means access for the lifetime of the applicable program or resource, not the lifetime of the purchaser.
5. Online & Virtual Teaching
Teaching your own students online is absolutely okay. You may use Teacher Trap resources when teaching your students in a private or password-protected virtual setting.

8. Classroom Management & Behavior Resources
Every teacher is responsible for using their professional judgment when choosing and applying Teacher Trap resources. Some students and situations may require individualized or specialized support beyond the scope of these resources.
Educational Use & Professional Judgment
Teacher Trap classroom management and behavior Content is provided for educational and informational purposes and is designed primarily to support typical classroom management needs and common educational challenges.
The Content is not intended to diagnose or treat behavioral, emotional, psychological, developmental, medical, or other conditions and is not a substitute for individualized assessment, intervention, or advice from qualified professionals.
Educators and other users are responsible for exercising their own professional judgment when selecting and implementing strategies, activities, or materials. Users should consider individual student needs, applicable laws, school and district policies, individualized education plans or other student plans where applicable, and relevant professional guidance.
Users should adapt, discontinue, or refrain from using a strategy when they determine that doing so is appropriate and should seek additional support from administrators, counselors, behavior specialists, mental-health professionals, healthcare providers, or other qualified professionals when student needs extend beyond typical classroom-management concerns.
9. Results & Personal Responsibility
Results will vary from classroom to classroom. Teacher Trap provides tools, strategies, and educational support, but does not guarantee specific results.
You are responsible for using your professional judgment when selecting, adapting, and implementing Teacher Trap Content and for determining whether particular strategies or materials are appropriate for your students and educational setting.
No Guarantees & Assumption of Responsibility
Teacher Trap makes no guarantee regarding specific student behavior, classroom, academic, professional, financial, or other outcomes resulting from the use or non-use of Teacher Trap Content.
Results may vary based on numerous factors, including student needs, educator experience, implementation, school environment, available support, and circumstances outside Teacher Trap’s knowledge or control.
By using Teacher Trap Content, you acknowledge that you are responsible for your own decisions, actions, implementation, and results. You agree to exercise appropriate professional judgment and due diligence before implementing strategies, plans, recommendations, or materials.
10. Payments, Refunds & Termination of Access
Courses and programs purchased through TeacherTrap.com include a 30-day money-back guarantee. If you find that your purchase isn’t the right fit, you may request a refund within 30 days of purchase. Email kady@teachertrap.com.
Purchases made through other platforms, such as Teachers Pay Teachers, are subject to the refund policies of those platforms. If you are unhappy with your purchase, please email kady@teachertrap.com so I can help.
Payment & Refund Terms
Payment is due at the time of purchase unless otherwise expressly stated.
For eligible Teacher Trap courses or programs purchased through TeacherTrap.com, you may request a refund within 30 days of purchase by emailing kady@teachertrap.com.

When a refund is issued, the license associated with the refunded purchase immediately terminates. You must cease using the refunded Content and, where reasonably applicable, delete or destroy copies in your possession or control. Access to associated online programs, accounts, or materials may also be terminated.
11. Limitation of Liability
Teacher Trap provides educational tools and information to support your work—not a guarantee of what will happen when you use them. You remain responsible for how materials and strategies are selected, adapted, and implemented in your particular setting.
Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Katherine (Kady) Dupre, DBA Teacher Trap, will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages arising out of or relating to your access to, use of, inability to use, or reliance on Teacher Trap Content.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
12. Governing Law & Disputes
These Terms and any dispute arising from or relating to them will be governed by applicable law. To the extent permitted by law, the governing law and venue for disputes involving Teacher Trap will be determined by the jurisdiction in which Teacher Trap is established, unless otherwise required by applicable consumer law.
13. Changes to These Terms
As Teacher Trap grows, these Terms may need an occasional update.
The current version will always be posted here, along with the date it was last updated.
Changes to Terms
Teacher Trap may update these Terms from time to time to reflect changes in its products, services, policies, business practices, or applicable law.
The current Terms will be posted on this page with an updated “Last Updated” date. Where required by law or where a material change affects existing rights, additional notice will be provided as appropriate.
Changes will apply prospectively as required by applicable law. Continued use of Teacher Trap Content after updated Terms become effective constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms to the extent permitted by law.
14. General Terms
If any provision of these Terms is determined to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in effect to the fullest extent permitted by law.
Teacher Trap’s failure to enforce any provision of these Terms does not waive its right to enforce that provision or any other provision in the future.
These Terms, together with any product-specific license, checkout terms, school-wide license terms, or other terms expressly presented with a particular purchase, constitute the agreement governing your use of the applicable Teacher Trap Content. If product-specific terms expressly conflict with these general Terms, the product-specific terms will control with respect to that product and only to the extent of the conflict.
