Terms of Service

Effective Date: [Insert Date - e.g., March 15, 2024]

IMPORTANT: These Terms of Service govern your relationship with Sprachlingua. Please read them carefully. This document requires review and potential modification by a qualified legal professional to ensure it fully meets your specific operational needs and complies with all applicable laws in your jurisdiction(s). Do not rely solely on this template without consulting legal counsel.

1. Introduction and Acceptance of Terms

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Sprachlingua website located at https://e-sprachlingua.com/ (the "Site"), our online language learning platform ("Platform"), and all related content, courses, materials, and services offered by Sprachlingua ("Sprachlingua", "we", "us", or "our") (collectively, the "Services").

By accessing the Site, registering for an account, enrolling in a course, or using any part of our Services, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy [Ensure you have a Privacy Policy page and link it here]. If you do not agree with these Terms, you must immediately cease using the Site and all Services.

2. Description of Services

Sprachlingua provides specialized online language courses, primarily focused on German language instruction [Modify if other languages are primary]. This includes access to our Learning Management System (LMS), proprietary course materials, structured lesson plans, interactive exercises, and potentially tutor or instructor interaction as defined by the specific course enrollment. [Adapt this description to accurately reflect ALL services you offer, e.g., specific levels, exam preparation, etc.].

3. User Accounts and Registration

Accessing specific Services, such as enrolling in courses and using our Platform, requires account registration. By registering, you agree to:

Provide accurate, truthful, current, and complete information as prompted by the registration form.
Maintain and promptly update your registration data to keep it accurate, current, and complete.
Securely maintain your password and accept full responsibility for all activities occurring under your account.
Immediately notify Sprachlingua through email/phone of any unauthorized use of your password or account or any other breach of security.

Sprachlingua is not liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with these obligations.

4. Fees, Payment, and No Refund Policy

Access to specific courses and potentially other premium Services requires payment of associated fees. Current fees for available courses are displayed on our Site [Link to your pricing/course enrollment page if applicable].

You agree to pay all fees applicable to your selected Services in full, prior to gaining access. Payments are processed via [Mention your payment processor, e.g., Stripe, PayPal, Razorpay]. All fees are stated and must be paid in [Specify Currency, e.g., INR, EUR, USD]. You are responsible for any applicable taxes or transaction fees imposed by your bank or payment processor.

No Refund Policy: Please carefully review course descriptions and schedules before enrolling. All fees paid to Sprachlingua for course enrollment and access to Services are final and non-refundable. Once payment is completed and you have been granted access to the course materials or Platform, no refunds will be issued for any reason. This includes, but is not limited to, student withdrawal (voluntary or involuntary), dissatisfaction with the course content or teaching style, scheduling conflicts, technical issues not directly caused by a complete failure of Sprachlingua's core service delivery, failure to attend classes, or change of mind. By completing your payment, you acknowledge and explicitly agree to this no-refund policy.

5. User Conduct and Responsibilities

Your use of the Services is subject to all applicable local, state, national, and international laws and regulations. You agree to use the Services responsibly and ethically. Specifically, you agree *not* to:

Use the Services for any unlawful or prohibited purpose.
Engage in any activity that disrupts, interferes with, or harms the Services, servers, networks, or other users' experience.
Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the Services, other accounts, computer systems, or networks connected to the Services.
Reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell, distribute, or exploit any portion of the Services, course materials, or Sprachlingua Content (as defined below) without our express prior written permission.
Engage in disrespectful, harassing, abusive, or otherwise inappropriate behavior towards instructors, staff, or fellow students within the Platform or any associated communication channels.
Share your account credentials or allow others to access the Services through your account.
Multiple Batch Attendance: While Sprachlingua understands that unforeseen circumstances may arise, repeating a previously enrolled course (attending a subsequent batch of the same course level) is permitted only *once* per student, per course level, subject to availability and potentially additional administrative or re-enrollment fees if applicable. This allowance is intended solely to accommodate genuine, unavoidable interruptions to a student's learning path and **cannot be used as a method for repeated practice, auditing, or extending access beyond the intended course duration.** Sprachlingua reserves the right to deny re-enrollment in a subsequent batch if it determines, at its sole discretion, that the request is not based on genuine need.
[Add any other specific rules, e.g., regarding submission of assignments, academic honesty.]

Violation of these conduct rules may result in suspension or termination of your access to the Services without refund.

6. Intellectual Property Rights

The Site, the Platform, all course materials, lesson structures, learning methodologies, software, text, graphics, logos, images, audio/video clips, trademarks, service marks, and all other content provided through the Services (collectively, the "Sprachlingua Content"), including all associated Intellectual Property Rights, are the sole and exclusive property of Sprachlingua and/or its licensors.

Your enrollment grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Services and Sprachlingua Content solely for your personal, non-commercial educational purposes, according to these Terms and any specific course enrollment conditions. Nothing in these Terms grants you any right, title, or interest in the Sprachlingua Content beyond this limited license. You agree not to copy, modify, distribute, sell, lease, publicly display or perform, transmit, publish, adapt, or create derivative works from any Sprachlingua Content without our express prior written consent.

7. Termination

Sprachlingua reserves the right to suspend or terminate your account and access to the Services immediately, without prior notice or liability, if you breach these Terms or engage in conduct that we, in our sole discretion, deem harmful to the Services, other users, or our reputation. Such termination may occur without any refund of fees paid.

You may terminate your account by discontinuing use of the Services and notifying us at [Your Support Email Address]. Termination of your account does not relieve you of any outstanding payment obligations nor entitle you to a refund.

Upon termination, your license to use the Services and Sprachlingua Content ceases immediately. Provisions of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination (including, without limitation, ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, indemnity, and limitations of liability) shall survive termination.

8. Disclaimers

The Services are provided strictly on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis. Your use of the Services is at your sole risk. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Sprachlingua expressly disclaims all warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including, but not limited to, implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement.

Sprachlingua does not guarantee that the Services will meet your specific requirements or learning goals; that the Services will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free; that the information or results obtained from the use of the Services will be accurate, reliable, or complete; or that any errors in the Services will be corrected. No advice or information, whether oral or written, obtained by you from Sprachlingua or through the Services shall create any warranty not expressly stated in these Terms.

9. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall Sprachlingua, its affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents, suppliers, or licensors be liable for any indirect, punitive, incidental, special, consequential, or exemplary damages, including without limitation damages for loss of profits, goodwill, use, data, or other intangible losses, resulting from or relating to:

Your access to or use of, or inability to access or use, the Services;
Any conduct or content of any third party on the Services;
Any content obtained from the Services;
Unauthorized access, use, or alteration of your transmissions or content;

This limitation applies whether the alleged liability is based on contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, or any other basis, even if Sprachlingua has been advised of the possibility of such damage. [Consider adding a specific cap on direct liability if required/advised by your legal counsel, e.g., limited to the amount you paid for the specific service in the preceding X months.]

10. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Sprachlingua and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, licensors, and suppliers from and against any and all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs or debt, and expenses (including but not limited to attorney's fees) arising from:

Your use of and access to the Service, including any data or content transmitted or received by you;
Your violation of any term of these Terms;
Your violation of any third-party right, including without limitation any right of privacy or Intellectual Property Rights;
Your violation of any applicable law, rule, or regulation;
Any content submitted via your account; or
Any other party's access and use of the Service with your unique username, password, or other appropriate security code.

11. Governing Law

You agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located within [Specify City/Region, e.g., Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India] for the resolution of any disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services. [Modify jurisdiction and dispute resolution details as advised by legal counsel. Consider arbitration clauses if appropriate.]

12. Changes to Terms

Sprachlingua reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to modify or replace these Terms at any time. If a revision is material (as determined by us), we will provide reasonable notice prior to the new terms taking effect, which may include posting a notice on the Site or sending an email to the address associated with your account. We suggest providing at least [e.g., 15 or 30] days' notice for material changes.
