Terms of Service
Last updated: [DATE]. These terms are a draft to be reviewed by counsel before publishing.
1. Agreement
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of this platform operated by [COMPANY LEGAL NAME] (“we”, “us”). By creating an account or using the service you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the service.
2. Eligibility & accounts
You must be at least [AGE] years old (or have verifiable guardian consent) to use the service. You must provide accurate information, keep your credentials secure, and are responsible for activity under your account. There are two roles: coaches who publish courses and academies, and students who enroll and learn.
3. Coaches, content, and ownership
Coaches retain ownership of the content they upload and grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive license to host, process, and deliver it to their enrolled students for the purpose of operating the service. Coaches are responsible for ensuring they have all rights to their content and that it is lawful and non-infringing. We may remove content that violates these Terms or applicable law.
4. Payments, refunds & withdrawal
Paid courses and subscriptions are offered by the coach through the platform; payments are processed by Stripe. [CONFIRM SELLER/MERCHANT-OF-RECORD: is the coach the seller and we the platform/agent, or are we the seller?] Prices, taxes, and any coupons are shown at checkout. Subscriptions and payment plans renew until cancelled; cancel from your account. Refunds follow the coach’s stated policy and [REFUND WINDOW], and platform fees are disclosed at [FEES URL]. EU/UK consumers: a statutory right of withdrawal may apply, subject to the exception for digital content supplied with your prior consent once access has begun. [CONFIRM WITHDRAWAL TERMS + THE DIGITAL-CONTENT CONSENT FLOW.]
5. Acceptable use
You agree not to misuse the service: no unlawful, infringing, harmful, deceptive, or abusive content; no attempts to breach security, scrape, reverse-engineer, or disrupt the platform; no automated webhook/URL targets aimed at internal or third-party systems; and no reselling or sharing access without authorization.
6. Termination
We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms or that create legal or security risk. You may close your account at any time. Sections on ownership, payment obligations, disclaimers, limitation of liability, and governing law survive termination.
7. Disclaimers & limitation of liability
The service is provided “as is” without warranties to the extent permitted by law. Coaching and course content is not professional, medical, legal, or financial advice. To the maximum extent permitted by law, our aggregate liability is limited to [AMOUNT / FEES PAID IN THE PRIOR 12 MONTHS]. Nothing limits liability that cannot be limited by law, and mandatory consumer rights in your jurisdiction are unaffected.
8. Governing law & changes
These Terms are governed by the laws of [JURISDICTION], and disputes are subject to [COURTS / DISPUTE PROCESS], without affecting any mandatory consumer protections in your country of residence. We may update these Terms; we will post material changes and, where required, notify you. Questions: [LEGAL EMAIL].
