These terms apply only to the 73TEC corporate website. BrightHope and other 73TEC products may have their own product-specific terms, payment terms, consent forms, and privacy policies.
These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the 73TEC company website at https://73tec.com (the "Website"). The Website is operated by 73TEC LLC ("73TEC," "we," "us," or "our"). By accessing or using the Website, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Website.
1. About the Website
73TEC LLC is a West Virginia software product company. We build, own, and operate software products and digital platforms, including BrightHope, a pastoral counseling platform.
The Website is a corporate informational website. It describes 73TEC, our product model, our operating approach, and selected products. The Website is not itself a software application, counseling platform, account portal, payment checkout, or custom software development service.
2. Relationship to Product-Specific Terms
BrightHope and any other 73TEC product, mobile app, API, subscription, payment flow, user account, counselor onboarding flow, admin portal, or product-specific website may be governed by separate terms, privacy policies, consent forms, professional disclosures, payment terms, and acceptable use rules.
If there is a conflict between these Website Terms and product-specific terms for a 73TEC product, the product-specific terms control for that product.
3. No Custom Development Offer
73TEC is a product company, not a custom software agency. Information on the Website about our capabilities, platforms, software, infrastructure, or product operations is provided for general company information. Nothing on the Website creates an obligation for 73TEC to provide custom software development, consulting, implementation, support, product licensing, or product sale terms to any visitor.
Any business relationship with 73TEC must be documented in a separate written agreement signed or otherwise accepted by 73TEC.

We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make changes, we will update the "Last updated" date above. Your continued use of the Website after changes are posted means you accept the updated Terms.
17. General Terms
If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in effect, and the unenforceable provision will be interpreted or modified to the extent necessary to make it enforceable. Our failure to enforce any provision does not waive our right to enforce that provision or any other provision later.
