2. Description of Service

Secure Dues is a private loan management platform that allows individuals ("Lenders") to track personal loans, generate loan contract templates, and collect payments from borrowers via Stripe. Secure Dues is a software tool only — it is not a bank, financial institution, or licensed lender.

3. Contract Disclaimer

Loan contracts generated by Secure Dues are templates only and may not be legally binding in your jurisdiction. Secure Dues makes no representations or warranties regarding the legal enforceability of any contract. You are solely responsible for ensuring that your lending activities, interest rates, and contracts comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws, including usury laws and consumer lending regulations.

We strongly recommend consulting a licensed attorney before entering into any lending arrangement.

4. Platform Fees

Secure Dues charges a platform fee of 2.5% per payment processed through the Service. This fee is deducted automatically at the time of payment processing via Stripe. By using the payment collection features, you agree to this fee structure.

9. Account Termination

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account at any time for violations of these Terms or for any other reason at our discretion.
