Terms of use
Last updated November 11, 2026
Pedigree Builder (pedigreebuilder.com) is run by Mueller Studio, in Maine, USA. By using the site you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use it.
What Pedigree Builder is
A tool for typing in an animal and its ancestors and printing a pedigree, with optional accounts that keep your records on our server and add breeding and show records.
A pedigree you print here is your own record. It is not a registration certificate, and Pedigree Builder is not connected to any breed association or registry. You are responsible for the accuracy of what you enter.
Using it without an account
Making and printing pedigrees without an account is free. Your records are kept in your browser on your device. We do not have a copy and cannot restore them. Download a backup file if the records matter to you.
Accounts
- You need to be 13 or older to create an account. If you are under 18, a parent or guardian must agree to these terms for you, and must be the one who pays.
- Keep your password to yourself. You are responsible for what happens in your account.
- There is no password reset yet. If you lose your password we cannot recover the account for you.
Price
- The first month is free. No card is needed to start.
- After that an account costs $3 a month.
- Paying is not switched on yet. Until it is, accounts are free. If you created your account before then, your free month starts on the day paying is switched on.
- If an account is not paid for, it becomes read-only: you can still view your records, print pedigrees and download a backup. Your records are not deleted.
- If the price changes, we will say so on the site before the change, and it will not apply to time you have already paid for.
Cancelling and refunds
Once paying is switched on, you can cancel at any time, and you keep full use of your account until the end of the period you paid for. We do not refund part of a period. If you were charged by mistake, write to hello@pedigreebuilder.com and we will put it right.
Your records
What you enter is yours. You give us permission to store it and show it to you so the service can work, and nothing more. You can download a copy or delete your account at any time. The Privacy page says what we store and where.
What you agree not to do
- Break into, overload or disrupt the site, or try to reach other people’s records.
- Use the site for anything unlawful.
- Create accounts by automated means.
We may suspend or close an account that does these things.
Availability
We work to keep the site running and your records safe, but we do not promise it will always be available or free of errors. Keep your own backup of anything you cannot afford to lose.
Disclaimer and limit of liability
The site is provided as it is, without warranties of any kind, to the extent the law allows. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for lost records, lost sales, or other indirect losses from using the site, and our total liability to you is limited to what you paid us in the 12 months before the claim.
Ending these terms
You can stop using the site and delete your account at any time. We can stop offering the site. If we do, we will give notice on the site and time to download your records.
Changes to these terms
If these terms change in a way that matters, we will say so on the site before the change takes effect.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Maine, USA.
