Important Disclaimer

Stridesy is a parent education and coaching tool. It is not Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy, and it is not a substitute for ABA therapy or any other clinical intervention.

ABA therapy is a clinical discipline conducted by credentialed professionals, including Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs), who conduct individualized assessments, develop treatment plans, implement programming, and monitor outcomes under ongoing clinical supervision. Stridesy does none of these things.

The activities, goal templates, and tracking tools within Stridesy are inspired by and aligned with evidence-based developmental frameworks. They are designed to help parents and caregivers practice supportive interactions at home — not to replicate, replace, or approximate clinical therapy.

Stridesy does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, or any clinical assessment. Nothing within the application — including intake questions, goal suggestions, progress data, or activity guidance — constitutes a clinical evaluation or professional recommendation.

The App's intake process is designed to help personalize your experience within the application. It is not a diagnostic tool, a formal developmental assessment, or a substitute for evaluation by a licensed psychologist, developmental pediatrician, speech-language pathologist, occupational therapist, or other qualified clinician.

If you have concerns about your child's development, health, or behavior, please consult a qualified healthcare or developmental professional. Do not delay seeking professional advice because of anything you have read or experienced in this application.

Use of Stridesy does not create a professional relationship of any kind between you and Stridesy, its staff, or any affiliated individuals. There is no therapist-client, doctor-patient, or counselor-client relationship established by your use of this application.

Child development is complex, and outcomes are influenced by a wide range of biological, environmental, and social factors that are outside our knowledge and control. Stridesy does not guarantee any particular developmental outcome, rate of progress, or skill acquisition as a result of using the application.

Progress data displayed within the App reflects information you have entered. It is not independently verified, clinically validated, or peer-reviewed.

Stridesy is designed to complement professional support, not replace it. We strongly encourage all families using this application to also work with qualified professionals — such as a BCBA, speech-language pathologist, occupational therapist, or developmental pediatrician — as appropriate for their child's needs.

If your child is currently receiving ABA therapy or another clinical service, we recommend sharing your Stridesy activities with your clinical team so they can ensure consistency and appropriateness with your child's clinical program.

Stridesy is not an emergency service. If your child is in immediate danger, is displaying behavior that poses a risk to themselves or others, or if you are experiencing a mental health crisis, please contact emergency services (911) or a crisis helpline immediately. Do not use this application to seek help in an emergency.

While we work to ensure the activities and guidance within Stridesy are grounded in evidence-based principles, we cannot guarantee that every piece of content is appropriate for every child in every situation. Content within the App is generalized and not tailored by a clinician to your specific child. Always use your judgment as a parent, and consult your child's clinical team if you are unsure whether a particular activity is appropriate.

If you have questions about this disclaimer or about the nature of Stridesy's services, please contact us at legal@stridesy.app.
