A clear understanding of how to use ImBright.
These Terms of Use describe the intended use of ImBright’s website, educational resources, programs, and support pathways. By accessing or using the ImBright website or its resources, you agree to use them in accordance with these terms.
Last updated: August 2026
Educational use
ImBright provides general emotional wellness education, practical exercises, supportive resources, and opportunities for support conversations.
Our content is designed for information, education, personal reflection, and skill-building.
ImBright does not provide medical, psychiatric, psychological, legal, or other professional healthcare advice through its general website content.
Our resources are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any medical or mental health condition.
Not an emergency service
ImBright is not an emergency or crisis-response service.
Do not use the ImBright website, forms, email, support conversations, or other communication channels to seek help for an immediate medical or mental health emergency.
If you believe you or another person is in immediate danger or requires urgent assistance, contact appropriate emergency or crisis services in your area.
Because ImBright does not continuously monitor website submissions or communications, we cannot guarantee an immediate response.
No guaranteed outcome
People respond differently to educational resources, exercises, programs, and support.
ImBright does not promise or guarantee a particular result from using our website, educational materials, programs, or support services.
Information and support provided by ImBright should not be considered a replacement for care or advice from an appropriately qualified professional when professional care is needed.
Support conversations
ImBright may provide opportunities to request or participate in support conversations.
These conversations are intended to provide educational support, reflection, practical tools, and help identifying possible next steps.
Unless expressly stated otherwise, an ImBright support conversation does not establish a doctor-patient, therapist-client, attorney-client, or other licensed professional relationship.
You are responsible for deciding whether information or suggestions provided through a support conversation are appropriate for your circumstances.
Your choices and responsibility
ImBright provides information and tools that you may choose to consider or use.
You remain responsible for your own decisions, actions, and use of the information provided through ImBright.
If you have concerns that require medical, mental health, legal, financial, or other professional expertise, you should seek assistance from an appropriately qualified professional.

The ImBright website may link to or interact with third-party services such as Google, Givebutter, or other external websites and resources.
These services are operated independently from ImBright and may have their own terms, privacy policies, security practices, and data-handling procedures.

Donations and payments
ImBright may provide opportunities to make charitable donations or payments through third-party payment platforms.
