Terms, in plain English

Last updated November 11, 2026

These terms are the deal between your PTO or PTA and PTO Magic. We kept them short. By starting a school or signing in, you agree to them.

The service

PTO Magic helps parent groups plan posts, run projects, coordinate volunteers, track money and hand things to next year's officers. We'll keep improving it, and sometimes that means changing how things work.

Your account and your team

  • The person who starts a school is its owner. The owner handles billing and can hand ownership to someone else.
  • You're responsible for who you invite and the roles you give them.
  • Keep your email account secure, since that's how you sign in.

Paying

PTO Magic is $9 a month per school, billed by card through Stripe. Cancel anytime from the billing page; you keep access until the end of the month you paid for. We don't give partial refunds, but if something went wrong, write to us and we'll make it right. If we ever change the price, we'll tell the owner at least 30 days ahead.

Your data

Everything your school puts in stays yours. You give us permission to store and process it only to run PTO Magic for you. Our privacy page has the details.

Be kind

  • Only add people your PTO has a real reason to contact, and only use PTO Magic for your PTO's work.
  • Don't upload student records, illegal content, or anything you don't have the right to share.
  • Don't try to break, overload or get into parts of PTO Magic that aren't yours.

If someone does, we may suspend their access. We'll explain why and try to sort it out first.

AI features

Some features draft posts, plans and answers with AI. They're usually helpful and occasionally wrong. Read drafts before you send them, and double-check numbers before they go in the minutes.

The fine print

We work hard to keep PTO Magic running and your data safe, but we provide it “as is,” without warranties. To the extent the law allows, our total liability to your school is limited to what you paid us in the 12 months before the problem. We're not liable for indirect losses. These terms are governed by the laws of the United States and the state where PTO Magic is based.

Changes and questions

If we change these terms in a way that matters, we'll email your school's owner first. Questions? hello@ptomagic.com.
