Terms of Use

Last updated: October 05, 2026

By using HostFamilyMatch.com, you agree to these terms.

What we do

HostFamilyMatch is a free informational and matching service. We provide comparisons of exchange-student host programs and, with your consent, connect you with programs that may fit your family. We are not an exchange organization and do not place students ourselves.

No guarantee

We work to keep program information accurate and current, but details (benefits, requirements, deadlines) are set by each organization and can change. Always confirm current terms directly with the program. We do not guarantee acceptance as a host family, which is decided by the exchange organizations based on their own screening.

Information you provide

You agree that the information you submit is accurate and that you are the person authorized to submit it. You consent to us sharing your information with matched programs as described in our Privacy Policy.

Independence & compensation

We may be compensated by exchange organizations as an authorized referrer, at no cost to you. See our Disclosure.

Limitation of liability

HostFamilyMatch is provided "as is." To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for decisions made by exchange organizations, host families, or students, or for any indirect or consequential damages arising from use of this site.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Michigan, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute arising from these terms or your use of the site will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Michigan.
