Terms of Service
Effective Date: January 2026
Welcome to The Burnout Breakdown (“we,” “us,” “our”). These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of our website, content, tools, and forms (including “Check Eligibility”) (collectively, the “Services”). By using the Services, you agree to these Terms.
If you do not agree, do not use the Services.
1.) What We Provide
The Burnout Breakdown provides free educational information and general guidance related to workplace leave options, including the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA). We may also share general resources or suggest third-party professionals/services you may choose to contact.
2.) Not Legal Advice or Medical Care
The Services are for informational and educational purposes only and are not a substitute for professional advice.
  • We do not provide legal advice and are not a law firm.
  • We do not provide medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, or therapy and are not a healthcare provider.
Using the Services does not create an attorney-client relationship, clinician-patient relationship, or any other professional relationship.
3.) “Check Eligibility” and Contact Forms
If you submit information through our forms:
  • You agree that the information you provide is accurate to the best of your knowledge.
  • You understand that any response or information we provide is general guidance only and not a guarantee of eligibility, outcomes, employer decisions, or legal/medical conclusions.
  • Submitting a form does not create any professional relationship.
4.) Third-Party Resources and Referrals
We may provide links, listings, or referrals to third parties (such as licensed clinicians, legal resources, coaches, or other services) for your convenience. These third parties are independent and are not our employees, agents, partners, or affiliates.
We do not control third parties and are not responsible for their services, advice, policies, availability, fees, or outcomes. Any interaction you have with a third party is solely between you and that third party and may be subject to their own terms and privacy practices.
5.) Your Responsibilities
You agree not to:
  • use the Services for unlawful purposes,
  • impersonate others or submit false or misleading information,
  • attempt to interfere with the Services (e.g., hacking, scraping, malware),

Our collection and use of information is described in our Privacy Policy: [insert link]. By using the Services, you consent to our collection and use of information as described there.
8.) Disclaimers
The Services are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. We make no warranties, express or implied, including warranties of accuracy, reliability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.
We do not guarantee:

To the fullest extent permitted by law, The Burnout Breakdown and its owners, affiliates, and contractors will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, data, or goodwill arising from or related to your use of the Services.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total liability for any claim related to the Services will not exceed $0.
10.) Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless The Burnout Breakdown from any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or related to your use of the Services, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any rights of another.
11.) Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms at any time. The “Effective Date” will reflect the most current version. Continued use of the Services after changes means you accept the updated Terms.
