Terms of Service

Please read these terms carefully before using our services

Effective Date: September 11, 2026

Welcome to Special Needs Care Network ("SPCN," "we," "our," or "us"). By using our website specialneedsusa.com ("Site"), you agree to the following Terms of Service. If you do not agree, please discontinue use immediately.

1. Purpose of the Site

SPCN is an online directory designed to connect families, caregivers, and individuals with schools, service providers, and resources related to special needs education and care. The information provided is for informational purposes only and is not medical, legal, or professional advice.

2. No Endorsement or Guarantee

Listings on our Site do not imply endorsement, recommendation, or guarantee. We do not verify every detail provided by third parties and cannot be held responsible for inaccuracies. Users are encouraged to independently verify any information before making decisions.

3. User Accounts & Submissions

If you create an account (e.g., to claim a listing) or submit content (such as reviews, lead forms, or provider information), you agree to provide accurate and lawful information.

  • You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account.
  • By submitting content, you grant SPCN a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to display and distribute it on our Site.
  • Reviews are subject to moderation. We may reject or remove reviews that we determine to be false, abusive, or otherwise in violation of these Terms.

4. Provider Relationships & Lead Submission

If you contact a specific listing, you authorize SPCN to deliver that inquiry to the provider identified on the listing. If you submit a matching request, you ask SPCN to evaluate the services and preferences you selected and match you with one or more providers that appear relevant to that request. Matching-request users do not select the receiving providers in advance.

Before submitting a matching request, you must expressly authorize SPCN to share your request details and contact information with the providers SPCN selects. After matching, SPCN sends a notice identifying the provider or providers that received the request. Those providers may contact you only about the services you requested and using the contact method you selected. You may ask SPCN or a provider to stop future contact.

We may have paid relationships with certain providers. Paid placement may be considered when SPCN orders eligible matching candidates, but payment does not guarantee delivery of a request and does not constitute a recommendation or endorsement. You remain responsible for evaluating any provider before obtaining services.

SPCN Text Messaging Program

SPCN offers a Customer Care text messaging program for user-initiated provider matching requests. When you submit after seeing the text notice, you agree to receive an automated verification code from SPCN at the mobile number you provide. If you complete verification, SPCN may also send confirmation and provider match updates about that request. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. You may dismiss phone verification without canceling the request; unverified requests continue by email and do not receive SPCN match-update texts.

Reply STOP to stop SPCN texts, START to resume after opting out, or HELP for help. You may also contact admin@specialneedsusa.com. Wireless carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. Standard SMS is not encrypted, and messages may be visible to anyone with access to your device; SPCN therefore limits these texts to confirmation and request-update information.

SPCN may modify or end the text messaging program. Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle mobile numbers, consent records, replies, and delivery information.

5. Sponsored Listings & Advertising

Some listings or features may be sponsored or paid placements. These will be clearly identified as such.

6. Prohibited Conduct

You may not use the Site to:

  • Submit false, misleading, or fraudulent information
  • Scrape, harvest, or use automated means to collect data from the Site without permission
  • Spam, harass, or misuse the contact or lead submission features
  • Violate any applicable law or the rights of others

We may suspend or terminate access for violation of these terms.

7. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, SPCN and its officers, directors, and affiliates are not liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages resulting from your use of the Site, including reliance on information found here, how listings are ranked or displayed, or actions of any third-party providers. Your sole remedy for dissatisfaction is to stop using the Site.

8. Modifications

We may update these Terms from time to time. Continued use of the Site after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms. Material changes may be noted by an updated effective date; we encourage you to review these Terms periodically.

9. Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Wyoming, United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Any dispute arising from these Terms or the Site shall be brought in the state or federal courts located in Sheridan County, Wyoming, and you consent to personal jurisdiction and venue in those courts.

10. Paid Provider Listings

10.1 Fees & Billing. Paid listings are offered on a subscription basis. The fee, billing interval, and subscription term applicable to your listing are those set forth in the order form, invoice, or provider agreement you accept at the time of purchase. Rates are not published here and may vary by market and tier. Fees are charged for advertising placement only. They are not charged per inquiry, per family, per referral, or per enrollment.

10.2 Approval. All paid listings are subject to review and approval by SPCN. If your application is not approved, you will receive a full refund. Approval is not guaranteed.

10.3 Cancellation & Refunds. Cancellation rights, notice periods, and any refund or proration terms are those set forth in your provider agreement. If your application is not approved and your listing never goes live, you receive a full refund as described in 10.2.

10.4 Term & Renewal. Your subscription term and renewal terms are those set forth in your provider agreement.

10.5 Removal. SPCN reserves the right to suspend or remove any listing that violates these Terms, contains inaccurate or misleading information, or no longer meets our verification standards. Removals for policy violations are not eligible for a refund.

10.6 Placement Order. Premium placement is not limited to a fixed number of providers in a city, metro, or state. Eligible paid listings are ordered using SPCN's placement rules, including any grandfathered contract terms, administrative ordering, and placement seniority. Your provider agreement controls the geographic scope and term of your placement.

10.7 No Guarantee of Results. Paid listings increase visibility on the SPCN platform. SPCN does not guarantee a specific number of inquiries, leads, or enrollments. Because fees are for placement rather than for results, no portion of any fee is contingent on the volume or outcome of family contacts.
