Terms

These terms are between you and Study Hall ("we"), which runs Study Hall. By creating an account or buying a course you agree to them.

Your account

Keep your password to yourself; you're responsible for what happens under your account. Accounts are for one person: please don't share a login.

Buying a course

We currently sell courses only to customers in the United States. At checkout your card is first only authorized (a hold); we charge it once we've confirmed the card is from the United States. If it isn't, we release the hold, you aren't charged, and the course isn't unlocked.

When your payment goes through, you get access to the course for the period shown on the course page and in your receipt ("lifetime" means for as long as we run the course). Prices are shown before you pay. Payments are handled by Stripe; we never see your card details.

At checkout you ask for access to start right away. Where the law gives a 14-day right to cancel online purchases, that right ends once access starts. Our refund policy applies instead, and it doesn't limit rights under consumer law that can't be excluded.

Using the courses

The courses are for your own personal study. Please don't copy, share, resell or republish the lessons, questions or audio. We may update a course to fix mistakes or improve it.

If someone breaks these terms (for example by sharing an account or copying course material), we may suspend their account, after telling them why where we reasonably can.

Our responsibility

We work hard to keep the courses accurate and the site running, but we can't promise it will never have errors or downtime. As far as the law allows, our total liability to you for anything relating to a course is limited to what you paid for it, and we aren't liable for indirect losses. This doesn't limit liability that the law doesn't let us limit.

Your data and cookies

What we keep: your name, email address and password (stored only in scrambled, hashed form, so we can't read it); your progress, quiz and test results; and your orders. For card payments, Stripe handles your card details; we receive only the card's brand, last four digits and country, and an identifier Stripe gives the card, which we use to check where a card is from and to apply the refund limits. We use this information to run your account and courses, to send the emails described below, and to keep records of sales as the law requires. We don't sell it or share it for advertising.

Emails: we email you about your account and purchases (receipts, password resets, and a reminder before your access ends). Progress emails and study reminders are optional: turn them off on your account page.

Cookies: we use one cookie, which keeps you signed in and remembers your cart. When you're signed in it lasts 14 days from your last visit; otherwise it ends when you close your browser. We don't use tracking, analytics or advertising cookies. Stripe's checkout page, on Stripe's own site, sets its own cookies under Stripe's privacy policy.

Your choices: to correct your name or email, get a copy of your data, or have your account deleted, email admin@example.com. We keep order records for as long as tax and accounting rules require, even after an account is deleted.

Questions and disagreements

If you have a problem, email admin@example.com first and give us a chance to put it right.

Changes

We may update these terms. Changes apply to purchases made after the update; a purchase you've already made keeps the terms you agreed to.
