Terms of Use

Effective Date: January 1, 2026
Last Updated: July 10, 2026

These Terms of Use ("Terms") are a binding legal agreement between you ("you," "your," "Client," or "User") and THE CODDE GROUP LLC, a California limited liability company doing business as RESTORED MINDS ("Restored Minds," the "Company," "we," "us," or "our"). They govern your access to and use of the Restored Minds website at www.restoredminds.com, our mobile and web application, and all related content, assessments, AI-generated materials, guided meditations, emotional-release exercises, programs, and services (collectively, the "Service").

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY. BY PURCHASING, SUBSCRIBING, CREATING AN ACCOUNT, CLICKING "I AGREE," OR OTHERWISE ACCESSING OR USING THE SERVICE, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS AND BY OUR PRIVACY POLICY, WHICH IS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE, DO NOT ACCESS OR USE THE SERVICE.

These Terms include a binding arbitration provision and class-action waiver (Section 15), important disclaimers of warranties (Section 12), and limitations of liability (Section 13) that affect your legal rights.

1. Mental Health Policy — Educational Purpose Only

THE CODDE GROUP LLC dba Restored Minds and Matthew Codde are not providing health advice, medical diagnoses, mental-health treatment, therapy, psychotherapy, counseling, or mental-health services of any kind through the Service.

You understand and agree that the Company and Matthew Codde are not acting as a doctor, psychotherapist, psychiatrist, psychologist, or licensed clinician in connection with the Service. The Company and Matthew Codde have not promised, are not obligated to, and will not: (1) procure or attempt to procure individual medical or psychological guidance for you; or (2) act as a therapist providing psychoanalysis, psychological counseling, diagnosis, or behavioral therapy.

AT THIS POINT, MATTHEW CODDE NO LONGER PRACTICES AS AN LCSW AND NO LONGER MAINTAINS A CLINICAL PRACTICE. MATTHEW CODDE NO LONGER OPERATES AS A LICENSED HEALTHCARE PROVIDER AND DOES NOT ENGAGE IN PATIENT DIAGNOSIS OR THE PRACTICE OF MEDICINE OF ANY KIND.

The Service provides educational content and self-guided tools based on the Triple-A Response® methodology. The Service teaches you how to apply the Triple-A Response®— to move into a state of non-resistance to your thoughts and feelings from the position of the witness or observer — through educational instruction, a structured self-assessment, AI-generated educational prompts, guided meditations, and emotional-release exercises. None of this is "treatment" of any kind.

The content of the Service is meant solely for informational and educational purposes and is not meant to substitute for advice provided by medical or mental-health professionals. If you suspect you are facing mental-health-related problems, you are strongly encouraged to seek professional help from a licensed professional in your area. Do not disregard professional advice, and do not delay seeking it, because of anything you have read or accessed through the Service. Do not self-diagnose, and do not start, stop, or adjust any medication without speaking to your physician or healthcare professional.

No professional relationship is created. Your use of the Service does not create a therapist–client, doctor–patient, clinician–patient, or any other professional or fiduciary relationship between you and the Company or Matthew Codde.

2. Not a Crisis Service — Client Safety and Assumption of Risk

Restored Minds is NOT a crisis service, emergency service, or suicide-prevention service, and the Service is not monitored in real time.

If at any time you are experiencing a medical or mental-health emergency — including, but not limited to, thoughts of self-harm, suicidality, or thoughts of hurting others — do not use the Service. Immediately go to your nearest emergency room, call or text the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (dial or text 988 in the United States), use the in-app crisis link, or contact 911 or your local emergency services. Outside the United States, contact your local emergency number or crisis hotline.

Acknowledgment and assumption of risk. By using the Service, you acknowledge and agree that:

  • (a) You will not use the Service while in a state of crisis or acute mental-health emergency, and you will instead seek qualified professional help or emergency services;

  • (b) The Service provides general educational content and self-guided exercises that may not be appropriate for your particular circumstances, which you are in the best position to evaluate;

  • (c) The application of the principles in the Service may vary from person to person, results may differ, and we do not and cannot guarantee any particular result or outcome;

  • (d) You assume full responsibility for how you use the Service and for any decisions, actions, or inactions you take based on it; and

  • (e) You use the Service voluntarily and entirely at your own risk.

3. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years of age to access or use the Service. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you are 18 or older, have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms, and are not barred from using the Service under applicable law. We do not provide the Service to children, and the Service is not directed to anyone under 18.

4. Accounts

To use most features, you must create an account using a valid email address. You are responsible for: (a) providing accurate information; (b) maintaining the confidentiality of your account and any sign-in codes; and (c) all activity under your account. Notify us promptly at support@restoredminds.com of any unauthorized use. We may suspend or terminate accounts as described in Section 17.

5. Subscriptions, Billing, Auto-Renewal

Subscription. The app Service is offered as a paid monthly subscription at the price shown at checkout and in your account settings (plus applicable taxes), unless otherwise stated at the point of purchase. Other programs and services (such as coaching programs) may be offered under separate fee schedules and agreements.

Payment processor. Subscription payments are processed by Stripe. By subscribing, you authorize the Company and Stripe to charge your selected payment method. Your payment information is handled by Stripe under its own terms and privacy policy. The Company does not store full payment-card details except as necessary to complete a transaction.

AUTOMATIC RENEWAL. Your subscription automatically renews on a monthly basis. Unless and until you cancel, you authorize us, through Stripe, to charge your payment method the monthly price shown at checkout and in your account settings (plus applicable taxes) at the then-current rate, without further notice or action by you, until you cancel. Each renewal is for a successive one-month term. If your plan includes a free trial, it begins as a free trial for the period shown at checkout and automatically converts to a paid, auto-renewing monthly subscription at that price when the trial ends — billing your payment method — unless you cancel before the trial ends.

Cancellation. You may cancel at any time through your account settings or by contacting support@restoredminds.com. Cancellation stops future renewals and takes effect at the end of your current billing period; you retain access until then. Amounts already charged are not prorated.

Late payments. If any payment is not made on time, you agree to pay interest on all past-due sums at a rate of 1.5% per month or the highest rate allowed by law, whichever is greater.

Price changes. We may change pricing prospectively. We will provide notice of any price change before it takes effect, and the change will apply to your next renewal. Continued use after the change takes effect constitutes acceptance.

California subscribers: Consistent with California's Automatic Renewal Law (Cal. Bus. & Prof. Code §17600 et seq.), you are enrolling in an automatically renewing subscription that continues and bills monthly until you cancel. Before charging you, we present these auto-renewal terms in a clear and conspicuous manner at checkout and obtain your affirmative consent. You may cancel at any time through your account settings or by emailing support@restoredminds.com, and we provide an online cancellation mechanism for this purpose.

6. No Refunds; Chargebacks

ALL SUBSCRIPTION PAYMENTS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE. We do not provide refunds or credits for any partial subscription period, unused time, or fees already paid, except where prohibited by applicable law. By subscribing, you acknowledge that no one has represented to you that refunds are available. Cancelling does not entitle you to a refund of amounts already charged.

Separate programs (such as coaching programs) are governed by their own refund terms in their respective agreements, which control for those programs.

Chargebacks. If you initiate a chargeback or payment dispute in violation of these Terms, the Company may charge you an additional administrative fee of $250, in addition to pursuing any other remedy available.

7. AI-Generated Content

The Service uses third-party artificial-intelligence providers through OpenRouter, which may route requests to Anthropic models, to generate individualized educational prompts and content based on your self-reported, structured inputs. AI-generated content is created using anonymized data only; your name, email address, and other personally identifying information are never included in the prompts sent to our AI providers, and user data sent to our AI providers is not used to train future AI models (see our Privacy Policy).

You understand and agree that AI-generated content: (a) is educational and self-help in nature only and is not advice, diagnosis, or treatment; (b) may be inaccurate, incomplete, or unsuitable for your specific circumstances; and (c) must not be relied upon as a substitute for professional judgment. You are solely responsible for how you interpret and use any AI-generated content.

8. License to Use the Service

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, single-user license to access and use the Service for your own personal, non-commercial use only. This license terminates automatically if you violate these Terms.

9. Intellectual Property; No Transfer

The Service and all of its contents — including the Triple-A Response® mark, the "Restored Minds" and "Taking Back Control" names and marks, the underlying methodology, text, assessments, prompts, meditations, releases, audio, graphics, software, design, and all other materials — are copyrighted, original works and the exclusive property of The Codde Group LLC, protected by copyright, trademark, trade-secret, and other intellectual-property laws. Triple-A Response® is a trademark of The Codde Group LLC. Restored Minds protects its names.

No license to sell or distribute the Company's materials is granted or implied, and you receive no ownership of any content. You may not copy, reproduce, re-engineer, reverse-engineer, distribute, modify, create derivative works from, publicly display, scrape, resell, or otherwise provide access to any part of the Service or its content — for free or paid, in whole or in part — without the Company's express written consent. By using the Service, you agree not to infringe any copyright, patent, trademark, trade secret, or other intellectual-property right of the Company. If you violate, or display any likelihood of violating, this Section, the Company is entitled to seek injunctive relief to prohibit such violations and protect against their harm.

10. Acceptable Use

You agree not to: (a) use the Service for any unlawful purpose or in violation of these Terms; (b) share, resell, or provide access to your account to others; (c) attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service or its systems; (d) interfere with or disrupt the Service; (e) use automated means to access or extract content; (f) misrepresent your identity or age; or (g) use the Service to develop a competing product or to train any machine-learning model. We may investigate and take action — including suspension or termination — for any violation.

11. Third-Party Services

The Service relies on and may link to third-party services (such as Stripe, our AI providers, our email provider, our hosting provider, and analytics tools). We are not responsible for the content, policies, or practices of third parties. Your use of third-party services is governed by their own terms and privacy policies. You should review each third party's privacy policy and practices before disclosing any information.

12. Disclaimer of Warranties

THE SERVICE AND ALL CONTENT, INCLUDING AI-GENERATED CONTENT, ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE.

WE MAKE NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES ABOUT THE COMPLETENESS, ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, SUITABILITY, OR AVAILABILITY OF THE SERVICE OR ITS CONTENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, ERROR-FREE, OR ACCURATE, OR THAT IT WILL PRODUCE ANY PARTICULAR RESULT, OUTCOME, OR IMPROVEMENT IN YOUR HEALTH OR WELL-BEING. ANY RELIANCE YOU PLACE ON THE SERVICE AND ITS CONTENT IS STRICTLY AT YOUR OWN RISK. NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM THE SERVICE CREATES ANY WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY STATED HERE.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so some of the above may not apply to you.

13. Limitation of Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL THE CODDE GROUP LLC, MATTHEW CODDE, OR THEIR RESPECTIVE MEMBERS, MANAGERS, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, AGENTS, AFFILIATES, OR SUCCESSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, OR FOR ANY PERSONAL INJURY, EMOTIONAL DISTRESS, OR HEALTH OUTCOME, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF (OR INABILITY TO USE) THE SERVICE, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, OR ANY OTHER THEORY, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE TOTAL AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100).

You release the Company and its Releasees from any and all damages that may result from your use or misuse of the Service, and you accept any and all risks, foreseeable or unforeseeable. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so some of the above may not apply to you. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.

14. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless The Codde Group LLC, Matthew Codde, and their respective members, managers, officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, affiliates, and successors (the "Releasees") from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, settlements, investigations, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use of the Service; (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) your violation of any law or third-party right; or (d) any decision, action, or inaction you take based on the Service or its content.

15. Binding Arbitration; Class-Action and Jury-Trial Waiver

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT AND TO HAVE A JURY TRIAL.

15.1 Good-Faith Negotiation. Before initiating arbitration, the parties agree to first attempt to resolve any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service ("Dispute") through good-faith negotiation.

15.2 Agreement to Arbitrate. If not resolved by negotiation, you and Restored Minds agree that any Dispute will be resolved by final and binding individual arbitration, administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its applicable consumer rules, rather than in court, except as set out in Section 15.5. This agreement is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act.

15.3 Class-Action and Jury-Trial Waiver. You and Restored Minds waive any right to a jury trial and agree that all Disputes will be brought solely in an individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, consolidated, or representative proceeding. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims or preside over any class or representative proceeding.

15.4 Procedure. Arbitration will be conducted before a single neutral arbitrator, in English, and may occur by telephone or video where available. Venue, to the extent an in-person proceeding is required, will be Orange County, California. The arbitrator's written decision will be binding and may be entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.

15.5 Exceptions. Either party may (a) bring an individual claim in small-claims court if it qualifies, and (b) seek injunctive or equitable relief in court to protect intellectual-property or confidential-information rights.

15.6 30-Day Opt-Out. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by emailing support@restoredminds.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms, stating your name, account email, and intent to opt out. Opting out will not affect any other part of these Terms.

15.7 Severability. If the class-action waiver is found unenforceable as to a particular claim, that claim will proceed in court, but the remainder of this Section will remain in effect.

16. Governing Law; Venue

These Terms and any Dispute are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Subject to Section 15, you consent to personal jurisdiction in, and agree that the exclusive venue for any matter not subject to arbitration is, the state and federal courts located in Orange County (Costa Mesa), California.

17. Suspension and Termination

We may suspend, restrict, or terminate your access to the Service at any time, in our sole discretion, with or without notice, if we believe you have violated these Terms, become disruptive, or for any other lawful reason — without refund or forgiveness of amounts owed. You may stop using the Service and cancel your subscription at any time (see Sections 5–6). Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including Sections 1, 2, 6, 9, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, and 19) will survive.

18. Non-Disparagement

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you agree not to engage in any conduct or communication, public or private, designed to disparage, defame, or make false statements about the Company, Matthew Codde, or their programs, members, owners, directors, officers, affiliates, employees, agents, or representatives.

19. General

19.1 Force Majeure. The Company will not be liable for any delay or failure to perform due to causes beyond its reasonable control, including acts of God, war, terrorism, labor disputes, civil disturbance, government action, or interruption of facilities.

19.2 Independent Status. Nothing in these Terms creates a partnership, joint venture, agency, or employment relationship between you and the Company.

19.3 Entire Agreement. These Terms and the Privacy Policy constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the app Service and supersede all prior agreements relating to that subject matter. Separate program agreements (such as coaching agreements) govern those programs.

19.4 Severability and Waiver. If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force, and the unenforceable provision will be modified to the minimum extent necessary. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of our right to do so later.

19.5 Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our written consent. We may assign them freely.

19.6 Modification. We may modify these Terms at any time. Material changes will be posted on our website with an updated Effective Date, and we will provide reasonable notice (such as by email or in-app notice). Your continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance.

19.7 Electronic Consent. By clicking "I agree," subscribing, or using the Service, you consent to contract electronically, and your electronic acceptance has the same legal effect as a handwritten signature.

19.8 Notices and Contact. Notices may be sent by email to support@restoredminds.com or by mail to: The Codde Group LLC dba Restored Minds, 2973 Harbor Blvd. #237, Costa Mesa, CA 92626.
