Terms of Service

Last updated: 26 April 2026

These terms govern your use of Aren, an AI-powered law career preparation platform available at aren.bot. By creating an account you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the service.

1. The service

Aren helps UK university students prepare for training contract and vacation scheme applications. The service includes:

• AI advice chat — conversational career coaching with Fast and Deep Thought modes
• Practice exercises — Situational Judgement Tests, Watson Glaser Critical Thinking, Written Exercises, and Group Exercises tailored to specific law firms
• Interview preparation — AI Partner voice interviews and Video Interview recording with AI feedback
• Application tracker — deadline management and application organisation
• Question Reviewer — AI review of CVs, cover letters, and application answers
• Daily commercial brief — business news analysis with partner-style questions
• Readiness score — firm-weighted assessment readiness tracking across all skills

Aren is a preparation tool only. Nothing provided by Aren constitutes legal advice, career counselling, or a guarantee of any application outcome. AI-generated content may contain errors. Always verify important information independently.

2. Your account

You must be at least 18 years old to create an account. You are responsible for keeping your login credentials secure and for all activity under your account. Notify us immediately at hello@aren.bot if you suspect unauthorised access.

3. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• Use the service for any unlawful purpose
• Attempt to circumvent usage limits or payment systems
• Create multiple accounts to abuse free tier limits
• Share your account credentials with others
• Scrape, copy, or redistribute content from the service
• Use the service to generate content that is misleading, harmful, or fraudulent
• Attempt to reverse-engineer, extract, or replicate any part of the service
• Submit content designed to manipulate or exploit the AI system

4. Subscription tiers and pricing

Aren offers three tiers:

• Aren Free — AI advice chat (Fast mode, 3 messages per day), Application Tracker with firm dossiers, Application Lab Question Reviewer (1 scoring per month).
• Aren+ (currently £14.99/month) — everything in Free plus SJT, Watson Glaser, Written Exercise, Group Exercise, Video Interview, Deep Thought chat mode, Daily Commercial Brief, and the Application Lab suite (unlimited Question Reviewer and Document Editor). 5x the usage of Free.

Prices may change. We will notify existing subscribers at least 30 days before any price increase takes effect.

5. Billing and cancellation

Payments are processed by a third-party payment provider. Subscriptions renew automatically each month. You can cancel at any time from Account settings — cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. No partial refunds are given for unused portions of a billing period.

Under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013, you have a 14-day cooling-off period from the date of purchase. To request a refund within this period, email hello@aren.bot.

6. Usage limits

Each tier has a monthly usage allowance. Usage resets on the 1st of each month. If you exceed your limits, you can upgrade your tier or wait until the next reset. We reserve the right to adjust limits to maintain service quality.

7. AI-generated content

Aren uses AI to generate responses, exercises, transcriptions, and speech. AI outputs:

• May contain factual errors, outdated information, or inaccuracies
• Should not be submitted verbatim as your own work in applications
• Are provided for preparation and learning purposes only
• Do not constitute legal, financial, or professional advice

You are solely responsible for how you use AI-generated content in your applications.

8. Intellectual property

All software, design, branding, and proprietary exercise logic belongs to Aren. AI-generated content (chat responses, exercise scenarios, feedback) is provided for your personal use in preparing applications. You may not reproduce, resell, or distribute it commercially.

Content you create (application answers, cover letters, tracker notes) remains yours.

9. Your data and privacy

Your use of Aren is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which explains what data we collect, how we process it, and your rights under UK GDPR. Key points:

• You can view, export, and delete your data at any time from Account settings
• You can reset your AI dossier (what Aren remembers about you) at any time
• Deleting your account permanently removes all your data within 30 days
• We do not sell your data or use it for advertising

10. Disclaimers

The service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not warrant that:

• The service will be uninterrupted, timely, or error-free
• AI-generated content will be accurate, complete, or suitable for any particular purpose
• Exercise scores or feedback will predict real assessment performance
• Using Aren will result in a training contract offer or any specific outcome

11. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by the laws of England and Wales:

• Aren shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages
• Aren shall not be liable for any loss of profit, data, or opportunity arising from use of the service
• Our total aggregate liability shall not exceed the amount you paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim

Nothing in these terms excludes liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or any other liability that cannot be excluded by law.

12. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your account if you violate these terms, without prior notice. You may delete your account at any time from Account > Data & Privacy > Delete account, or by emailing hello@aren.bot.

On termination, your right to use the service ceases immediately. Data deletion follows the timeline in our Privacy Policy.

13. Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales. Any disputes shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales. Nothing in these terms affects your statutory rights as a consumer.

14. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms to reflect changes to the service, pricing, or legal requirements. Material changes will be communicated by updating the date above and, for existing users, by email notification at least 14 days before they take effect. Continued use of the service after changes constitutes acceptance.
