Agreeing to these terms
By creating an account or using Starting Strong, you agree to these terms and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. If you don't agree, please don't use the program.
Your account
You must be 18 years of age or older to use Starting Strong. Give accurate information, keep your password private, and let us know if you think someone else has used your account. You are responsible for activity on your account.
An educational program
Starting Strong is an educational premarital relationship program. It is not psychotherapy, counseling, mental-health treatment, crisis care, medical care, legal advice or financial advice, and it is not a substitute for professional help when that help is needed. We can't promise any particular outcome for your relationship.
If you or someone else is in danger, or you are experiencing a crisis or abuse, contact local emergency services or a qualified professional right away.
Taking part with your partner
Starting Strong is designed for two partners, each with their own account. Some parts only open once both of you have done your part.
- Private responses stay private to you. Answers you choose to share, or that are marked to be revealed, are shown to your partner.
- You are responsible for what you choose to share with your partner.
- Use only your own account. Don't sign in as, or try to access, anyone else's account or private responses.
AI-assisted features
Some features, such as optional follow-up questions during Reveals, Listen and voice dictation, use AI. AI-generated content can be imperfect, incomplete or not fit your situation. It is offered to support reflection and conversation, not as professional advice. Use your own judgment.
