Term Of Use

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) were last updated on May 15, 2022.

The objective of GMAX Learn is to enhance lives through education. We make it possible for anybody, anywhere, to develop and distribute educational content (instructors) and to learn from that information (students). Our marketplace approach is the most effective way for us to provide our users with quality instructional information. For you, us, and our student and instructor community, we need regulations to keep our platform and services safe. These Terms apply to anything you do on the GMAX Learn website, the GMAX Learn mobile apps, our APIs, and other associated services (“Services”).

You must agree to the Instructor Terms if you publish a course on the GMAX Learn platform, and you must agree to the Affiliate Terms if you promote and sell our courses.. Our Privacy Policy also contains information about how we handle personal information about our students and educators.

1. Accounts

Most activity on our platform require an account. Because you are responsible for any activity linked with your account, keep your password somewhere safe. Please notify our Support Team if you feel someone else is using your account. To use GMAX E-Learning, you must have reached the age of permission for online services in your country.

Most activities on our platform require an account, including purchasing and accessing content and submitting content for publication. You must supply and maintain correct and complete information, including a valid email address, when creating and maintaining your account. You are solely responsible for your account and everything that occurs on it, including any harm or damage caused by someone using your account without your consent (to us or anyone else). This means you must be cautious while selecting a password. You may not transfer your account to another person or use another person’s account. If you contact us to request access to an account, we will not grant you such access unless you can provide us with the information that we need to prove you are the owner of that account. In the event of the death of a user, the account of that user will be closed.

Your account login information must not be shared with anyone else. GMAX Learn will not intervene in disputes between students or instructors who have shared account login passwords because you are responsible for what happens with your account. You must contact our Support Team right once if you feel someone else is using your account without your permission (or if you suspect any other security violation). We may ask for some information from you to verify that you are the account’s owner.

To create an account on GMAX Learn and use the Services, students and instructors must be at least 18 years old. You may not set up an account if you are under the age of 18 but over the age required for consent to use online services where you live (for example, 13 in the United States or 16 in Ireland), but we encourage you to invite a parent or guardian to do so and help you access content that is appropriate for you. You may not create a GMAX Learn account if you are under the age of permission to use internet services. If we discover that you have created an account that violates these rules, we will terminate your account. Under our Instructor Terms, you may be requested, if need be, to verify your identity before you are authorized to submit content for publication on GMAX Learn.

You can terminate your account at any time by following the appropriate steps. Check our Privacy Policy to see what happens when you terminate your account.

2. Content Enrollment and Lifetime Access

When you enroll in a course or other content, we provide you a license to see it only through the GMAX Learn Services. Make no attempt to transfer or resell content. Unless we have to disable the content for legal or policy reasons, we usually provide you a lifetime access license.

When instructors post content on GMAX Learn, they grant GMAX Learn permission to sell the content to students under our Instructor Terms. This means we have the right to sublicense the content to students who are enrolled. When you enroll in a course or other content, whether it’s free or paid, you’re giving GMAX Learn permission to see it through the GMAX Learn platform and Services, and GMAX Learn is the licensor of record. You are licensed, not sold, the content. You do not have the right to resell the content in any way under this agreement (including by sharing account information with a purchaser or illegally downloading the content and sharing it on torrent sites).

In legal terms, GMAX Learn grants you (as a student) a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access and view content for which you have paid all required fees through the Services, solely for your personal, non-commercial, educational purposes, in accordance with these Terms and any conditions or restrictions associated with the specific content or feature of our Services. All other uses are strictly forbidden. Unless we give you explicit permission to do so in a written agreement signed by an GMAX Learn authorized representative, you may not reproduce, redistribute, transmit, assign, sell, broadcast, rent, share, lend, modify, adapt, edit, create derivative works of, sublicense, or otherwise transfer or use any content. This holds true for content accessed through any of our APIs.

When students enroll in a course or other content, we usually provide them a lifetime access license. However, we reserve the right to revoke any license to access and use any content at any time if we decide or are required to disable access to the content for legal or policy reasons, such as if the course or other content you enrolled in is the subject of a copyright complaint or if it violates our Trust & Safety Guidelines. This license does not apply to Subscription Plans or add-on features and services linked with the course or other content you enroll in.

Instructors, for example, may decide at any time to stop providing instructional support or Q&A services related to the content. To be clear, the course information is accessible for life, but not the instructor.

Instructors may not directly award students licenses to their content, and any such direct license is void and in violation of these Terms.

3. Payments, Credits, and Refunds

You agree to use a valid payment method when you make a payment. GMAX Learn offers a 30-day refund or credit for most content purchases if you aren't satisfied.

3.1 Pricing

GMAX Learn content prices are regulated by the terms of the Instructor Terms and our Promotions Policy. Due to mobile platform providers’ pricing structures and restrictions regarding implementing sales and promotions, the price of material offered on the GMAX Learn website may differ slightly from the price offered on our mobile or TV applications.

We occasionally hold content specials, promotions and sales, during which specific content is available at a reduced price for a limited time. The price that applies to the content will be the price at the moment that you finish your content purchase (at checkout). Because certain of our specials are exclusively available to new users, any price provided for particular content may alter when you are logged into your account from the price available to users who aren’t registered or logged in.

3.2 Payments

You agree to pay the fees for the content you purchase, and you give us permission to charge your debit or credit card or process other forms of payment (such as Paypal, Paystack, direct debit, or mobile wallet) for such fees. GMAX Learn collaborates with payment service providers to provide you with the most convenient payment methods available in your location while also safeguarding your payment information. Using information provided by our payment service providers, we may update your payment options. For more information, see our Privacy Policy.

You promise not to use an invalid or unauthorized payment method when you make a transaction. You agree to pay us the associated payments within thirty (30) days of receiving notified from us if your payment method fails and you still have access to the content you are enrolling in. We reserve the right to restrict access to any content for which we have not been paid in full.

3.3 Refunds and Refund Credits

If the content you purchased is not what you expected, you can seek a refund from GMAX Learn within 30 days of your purchase. Any course not refundable will be clearly stated at the purchase of the course. Depending on the capabilities of our payment service providers, the platform from where you purchased your content (website, mobile, or app), and other considerations, we retain the right to apply your return as a refund credit or a refund to your original payment method. If you request a refund after the 30-day guarantee period has expired, you will not receive one. If the content you previously purchased is disabled for legal or policy reasons, you are eligible for a refund once the 30-day period has passed. In circumstances of suspected or confirmed account fraud, GMAX Learn reserves the right to repay students after the 30-day period has passed.

Follow the procedures below to get a refund. Instructors acknowledge that students have the right to receive these returns, as stated in the Instructor Terms.

If we believe you are abusing our refund policy, such as if you have consumed a significant portion of the content you want to refund or if you have previously refunded the content, we reserve the right to deny your refund, restrict you from receiving future refunds, ban your account, and/or restrict all future use of the Services at our discretion. For any refund related issues, write us a mail to support@gmaxent.com or refund@learn.gmaxent.com. You will not be eligible for a refund if we suspend your account or disable your access to the content as a result of your violation of these Terms or our Trust & Safety Guidelines.

4. Content and Behavior Rules

GMAX Learn can only be used for legal purposes. You are solely responsible for the content you publish on our platform. You must comply with our Trust & Safety Guidelines and the law while posting reviews, questions, posts, courses, and other content, and you must respect the intellectual property rights of others. For repeated or serious crimes, we may suspend your account. Let us know if you believe someone is violating your copyright on our platform.

For illegal purposes, you may not access or use the Services or create an account. Your activity on our platform and usage of the Services must comply with applicable local or national laws and regulations in your country. You are solely responsible for your understanding of and compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.

If you are a student, the Services allow you to ask instructors questions about courses or other content you are enrolled in, as well as publish content reviews. The instructor may ask you to submit content as “homework” or assessments for certain topics. Anything that is not yours should not be posted or submitted.

You can submit content for publishing on the site and engage with students who have registered in your courses or other content if you are an instructor. You must follow the law in both circumstances and respect the rights of others: you may not publish any course, question, response, review, or other content that violates your country’s applicable local or national laws or regulations. You are solely responsible for the consequences of any courses, content, or activities you post or take on the platform and Services. Before you submit any content for publishing on GMAX Learn, be sure you understand all of the copyright restrictions outlined in the Instructor Terms.

If we receive notice that your course or content violates the law or the rights of others (for example, if it is established that it violates others’ intellectual property or image rights, or is about illegal activity), if we discover that your content or behavior violates our Trust & Safety Guidelines, or if we believe your content or behavior is unlawful, inappropriate, or objectionable (for example, if you impersonate someone else), we may remove your content. Copyright laws are followed by GMAX Learn.

GMAX Learn has discretion in enforcing these Terms and our Trust & Safety Guidelines. We may restrict or terminate your permission to use our platform and Services or ban your account at any time, with or without notice, for any or no reason, including for any violation of these Terms, if you fail to pay any fees when due, for fraudulent chargeback requests, upon the request of law enforcement or government agencies, for extended periods of inactivity, for unexpected technical issues or problems, if we suspect that you engage in fraudulent or illegal activities, or for any other reason in our sole discretion. Upon any such termination we may delete your account and content, and we may prevent you from further access to the platforms and use of our Services. Your content may still be available on the platforms even if your account is terminated or suspended. You agree that we will have no liability to you or any third party for termination of your account, removal of your content, or blocking of your access to our platforms and services.

Please notify us if a user has published content that violates your copyright or trademark rights. Our Instructor Terms demand that our teachers observe the law and respect other people’s intellectual property rights.

5. GMAX Learn’s Rights to Content You Post

You maintain ownership of all content, including your courses, that you submit to our site. We have permission to distribute your content with anyone via any medium, including advertising on other websites.

The content you post as a student or instructor (including courses) remains yours. By posting courses and other content, you allow GMAX Learn to reuse and share it but you do not lose any ownership rights you may have over your content. If you are an instructor, be sure to understand the content licensing terms that are detailed in the Instructor Terms.

You authorize GMAX Learn to use and share this content with anyone, distribute and promote it on any platform and in any media, and make modifications or edits to it as we see fit when you post content, comments, questions, reviews, and submit ideas and suggestions for new features or improvements.

In legalese, you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license (with the right to sublicense) to use, copy, reproduce, process, adapt, modify, publish, transmit, display, and distribute your content (including your name and image) in any and all media or distribution methods by submitting or posting content on or through the platforms (existing now or later developed). This includes making your content available to other companies, organizations, or individuals who work with GMAX Learn to syndicate, broadcast, distribute, or publish content on other media, as well as marketing your content. To the extent permitted by law, you also waive any rights to privacy, publicity, or other similar rights with respect to all of these uses. You represent and warrant that you have all essential rights, powers, and permission to allow us to utilize any content you provide. You also accept that you will not be compensated for any such usage of your content.

6. Using GMAX Learn at Your Own Risk

GMAX Learn allows anyone to develop and distribute information, and we also allow instructors and students to interact for teaching and learning. Some things can go wrong with GMAX Learn, just as they may with other platforms where individuals can upload content and communicate, and you use it at your own risk.

We do not check or modify content for legal reasons, and we are unable to assess the legality of content due to our platform architecture. We have no editorial control over the content available on the platform, and as a result, we cannot guarantee the content’s trustworthiness, validity, correctness, or veracity in any way. You use any information provided by an instructor at your own risk if you access content.

You may be exposed to content that you find offensive, indecent, or objectionable if you use the Services. To the extent permitted by law, GMAX Learn has no responsibility to keep such content from you and no liability for your access to or enrolment in any course or other content. This includes any content related to health, wellness, or physical activity. You recognize the inherent risks and dangers in the strenuous nature of this sort of content, and you choose to incur such risks voluntarily by accessing such content, including the risk of disease, bodily harm, disability, or death. You are solely responsible for your decisions made prior to, during, and after access to the content.

When you contact directly with a student or an instructor, you must be cautious about sharing personal information. While we limit the types of information instructors can request from students, we have no control over what students and instructors do with the data they collect from other platform users. For your own protection, you should not share your email or any personal information.

We do not employ or hire instructors, and we are not responsible or liable for any interactions between instructors and students. We are not responsible for any disputes, claims, losses, injuries, or damage arising from or related to the behavior of instructors or students.

You will see links to other websites that we do not own or control when using our Services. We are not responsible for the content or any other feature of these third-party sites, including their collecting of personally identifiable information. Read their terms and conditions as well as their privacy policies.

7. GMAX Learn’s Rights

We own the GMAX Learn platform and services, including the website, current and future apps and services, as well as our logos, API, code, and employee-created content. You may not mess with or use them without permission.

GMAX Learn and its licensors own all right, title, and interest in and to the GMAX Learn platform and Services, including our website, existing or future applications, APIs, databases, and the content our employees or partners submit or provide through our Services (but excluding content provided by instructors and students). Copyright, trademark, and other laws in the United States and other countries protect our platforms and services. Nothing grants you permission to use the GMAX Learn name or any of its trademarks, logos, domain names, or other unique brand elements.

You may not do any of the following while accessing or using the GMAX Learn platform and Services:

  • access, tamper with, or use non-public areas of the platform (including content storage), GMAX Learn’s computer systems, or the technical delivery systems of GMAX Learn service providers.
  • disable, interfere with, or try to circumvent any of the features of the platforms related to security or probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of any of our systems.
  • copy, modify, create a derivative work of, reverse engineer, reverse assemble, or otherwise attempt to discover any source code of or content on the GMAX Learn platform or Services.
  • access or search or attempt to access or search our platform by any means (automated or otherwise) other than through our currently available search functionalities that are provided via our website, mobile apps, or API (and only pursuant to those API terms and conditions). You may not scrape, spider, use a robot, or use other automated means of any kind to access the Services.
  • in any way use the Services to send altered, deceptive, or false source-identifying information (such as sending email communications falsely appearing as GMAX Learn); or interfere with, or disrupt, (or attempt to do so), the access of any user, host, or network, including, without limitation, sending a virus, overloading, flooding, spamming, or mail-bombing the platforms or services, or in any other manner interfering with or creating an undue burden on the Services.

8. Miscellaneous Legal Terms

These Words are similar to any other contract in that they contain tedious but necessary legal terms that protect us from a variety of risks and clarify the legal relationship between us and you.

8.1 Binding Agreement

By registering, accessing, or using our Services, you acknowledge that you are entering into a legally binding relationship with GMAX Learn. Do not register, access, or use any of our Services if you do not agree to these Terms.

You represent and warrant that you are permitted to accept these Terms and use our Services on behalf of a corporation, organization, government, or other legal body if you are an educator.

Any version of these Terms written in a language other than English is given for your convenience, and you understand and agree that if there is a conflict, the English language will take precedence.

The whole arrangement between you and us is governed by these Terms (including any agreements and policies linked from these Terms) (which include, if you are an instructor, the Instructor Terms).

If any part of these Terms is found to be illegal or unenforceable under applicable law, that provision will be replaced with a valid, enforceable provision that most nearly fits the original provision’s intent, and the remainder of these Terms will remain in effect.

Even if we delay or fail to exercise our rights in one instance, this does not indicate we have waived our rights under these Terms, which we may decide to enforce in the future.

The following sections shall survive the expiration or termination of these Terms: Sections 2 (Content Enrollment and Lifetime Access), 5 (GMAX Learn’s Rights to Content You Post), 6 (Using GMAX Learn at Your Own Risk), 7 (GMAX Learn’s Rights), 8 (Miscellaneous Legal Terms), and 9 (Dispute Resolution).

8.2 Disclaimers

It is possible that our platform will be unavailable due to planned maintenance or a technical issue with the site. It’s possible that one of our instructors will make a mistake in their content. It’s also possible that we’ll run into security difficulties. These are just examples. You accept that you will not have any recourse against us in any of these types of cases where things don’t work out right. In legal, more complete language, the Services and their content are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. We (and our affiliates, suppliers, partners, and agents) make no representations or warranties about the suitability, reliability, availability, timeliness, security, lack of errors, or accuracy of the Services or their content, and expressly disclaim any warranties or conditions (express or implied), including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement. We (and our affiliates, suppliers, partners, and agents) make no warranty that you will obtain specific results from use of the Services. Your use of the Services (including any content) is entirely at your own risk. Some jurisdictions don’t allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so some of the above exclusions may not apply to you.

At any moment and for any reason, we may decide to stop providing some elements of the Services. GMAX Learn, its affiliates, suppliers, partners, or agents will not be held accountable for any damages resulting from such interruptions or lack of availability of such functionalities under any circumstances.

We are not liable for any delays or failures in the provision of Services caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control, such as acts of war, hostility, or sabotage; natural disasters; power, internet, or communications outages; or government restrictions.

8.3 Limitation of Liability

There are dangers associated with using our Services, such as injuring yourself when accessing health and wellness material such as yoga. You acknowledge and agree that even if you incur loss or harm as a result of utilizing our platform and Services, you will have no recourse to seek damages. We (and our group companies, suppliers, partners, and agents) will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, punitive, or consequential damages (including loss of data, revenue, profits, or business opportunities, or personal injury or death), whether arising in contract, warranty, tort, product liability, or otherwise, even if we have been advised of the possibility of damages in advance.

8.4 Indemnification

If you do something that puts us in legal problems, we may take legal action against you. You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold GMAX Learn, our group companies, and their officers, directors, suppliers, partners, and agents harmless from and against any third-party claims, demands, losses, damages, or expenses (including reasonable attorney fees) arising from (a) the content you post or submit, (b) your use of the Services, or (d) your violation of any third-party rights. Your indemnification obligation shall continue even if these Terms and your usage of the Services are terminated.

8.5 Governing Law and Jurisdiction

When these Terms relate to “GMAX Learn,” they’re referring to the GMAX Learn business with which you’ve signed a contract. If you’re a student, your contracting entity and governing legislation will be established by where you live.

8.6 Legal Actions and Notices

Except where this limitation cannot be imposed by law, no action arising out of or connected to this Agreement, regardless of form, may be brought by either party longer than one (1) year after the cause of action has accrued.

Any notice or other communication required under this agreement will be made in writing and sent by registered or certified mail with return receipt requested, or by email (by us to the email connected with your account, or by you to info@gmaxent.com or support@gmaxent.com).

8.7 Relationship Between Us

We agree that we do not have a joint venture, partnership, employment, contractor, or agency relationship.

8.8 No Assignment

These Terms may not be assigned or transferred (or the rights and licenses granted under them). For example, if you created an account as a firm employee, you cannot move your account to another employee. Without restriction, we may assign these Terms (or the rights and licenses granted under them) to another firm or person. No right, benefit, or remedy is conferred on any third-party person or entity by these Terms. You acknowledge that your account is non-transferable and that upon your death, all rights to your account and any rights under these Terms end.

9. Dispute Resolution

If there’s a dispute, our Support Team is happy to help resolve the issue. 

10. Updating These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time to explain our practices or to reflect new or different practices (for example, when we add new features), and GMAX Learn has the right to alter and/or change these Terms at any time in its sole discretion. If we make a major change, we will notify you by email to the email address indicated in your account or by posting a notice on our Services. Unless otherwise specified, changes will take effect the day they are posted.

Continued use of our Services after the changes take effect means you agree to the changes. All prior Terms will be superseded by any amended Terms.

12. How to Contact Us

Contacting our Support Team is the best approach to get in touch with us. Your questions, complaints, and criticism on our Services are welcome.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experiences with us!
