Agreement to Terms

By accessing and using the Economic Mastery Platform, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms of Use and all applicable laws and regulations. These terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and the Economic Mastery Platform regarding your use of our educational services, website, and related resources.

If you do not agree with any part of these terms, you are not authorized to use our platform or services. Your continued use of the platform following any modifications to these terms constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms. We recommend reviewing these terms periodically to ensure your ongoing compliance and understanding of your rights and obligations.

Educational Services Description

The Economic Mastery Platform provides comprehensive online educational services focused on economics, finance, and related professional development areas. Our services include structured courses, interactive learning materials, assessments and evaluations, certification programs, expert instruction, and ongoing educational support. We strive to deliver high-quality educational content that meets professional standards and industry requirements.

Our educational programs are designed for adult learners seeking to advance their professional knowledge and skills. While we make every effort to provide accurate and current information, the field of economics and finance is constantly evolving, and we encourage students to supplement their learning with current market research and professional consultation where appropriate.

User Accounts and Registration

To access our educational services, you must create a user account by providing accurate, complete, and current information. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. You agree to immediately notify us of any unauthorized use of your account or any other breach of security.

Each user account is personal and non-transferable. You may not share your account credentials with others or allow anyone else to access your account. Creating multiple accounts for the same individual is prohibited unless specifically authorized by our platform administrators. You are responsible for ensuring that your account information remains accurate and up-to-date throughout your use of our services.

Course Enrollment and Payment Terms

Course enrollment requires payment of applicable fees as displayed during the registration process. All prices are listed in Sri Lankan Rupees and are subject to change without prior notice. Payment must be completed before accessing course materials, and we reserve the right to suspend access to educational content for accounts with outstanding payment obligations.

Refund policies vary by course type and enrollment timing. Generally, refunds may be available within a specified period after enrollment, provided that minimal course content has been accessed. Completion certificates and professional credentials cannot be refunded once issued. Detailed refund policies are provided during the enrollment process and may vary based on the specific educational program.

Intellectual Property Rights

All content provided through the Economic Mastery Platform, including but not limited to course materials, videos, presentations, assessments, software, and written materials, is protected by intellectual property laws. This content is owned by the Economic Mastery Platform or our licensed content providers and is provided for your personal educational use only.

You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access and use the educational content for your personal learning purposes. You may not reproduce, distribute, transmit, display, sell, license, or otherwise exploit any content for commercial or public purposes without explicit written permission. Any violation of these intellectual property rights may result in immediate termination of your access to our platform.

Acceptable Use Guidelines

Users must conduct themselves professionally and respectfully while using our platform. Prohibited activities include sharing false or misleading information, engaging in harassment or discrimination, attempting to gain unauthorized access to platform systems, disrupting the learning environment for other students, using the platform for any illegal activities, and violating the intellectual property rights of others.

We reserve the right to monitor user activity to ensure compliance with these guidelines and may take appropriate action, including warnings, suspension, or termination of access, for violations. Users are expected to maintain professional standards in all interactions with instructors, support staff, and fellow students.

Academic Integrity and Assessment Policies

Academic integrity is fundamental to the value of education provided through our platform. Students are expected to complete all assessments and assignments independently unless collaborative work is explicitly permitted. Cheating, plagiarism, unauthorized collaboration, and any form of academic dishonesty are strictly prohibited and may result in immediate course failure and account termination.

Our assessment systems include measures to detect academic misconduct, and we regularly review submission patterns and assessment responses. Students found to have violated academic integrity policies may be required to retake assessments, may receive failing grades, or may be permanently excluded from our educational programs.

Platform Availability and Technical Requirements

While we strive to maintain consistent platform availability, we cannot guarantee uninterrupted access to our services. Scheduled maintenance, technical difficulties, and other factors may occasionally impact platform accessibility. We will make reasonable efforts to notify users of planned maintenance and to minimize disruptions to the learning experience.

Users are responsible for ensuring they have adequate internet connectivity and compatible devices to access our educational content. Technical support is available to assist with platform-related issues, but we cannot provide support for general computer problems or internet connectivity issues beyond our platform.

Limitation of Liability

The Economic Mastery Platform provides educational services on an "as is" basis without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. We do not guarantee that our educational content will meet your specific professional requirements or that the skills acquired will result in particular career outcomes or financial benefits.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to loss of profits, data, or business opportunities, arising from your use of our platform or educational services. Our total liability for any claims arising from these terms or your use of our services shall not exceed the amount you paid for the specific course or service giving rise to the claim.

Certification and Professional Recognition

Certificates issued upon successful completion of our courses represent achievement within our educational framework and demonstrate mastery of the specific curriculum content. However, these certificates do not constitute professional licensing, regulatory approval, or guarantee of employment opportunities. Students are responsible for understanding the recognition and acceptance of our certificates within their specific industry or profession.

While our courses are designed to provide valuable professional knowledge and skills, we make no representations about the acceptance of our certifications by employers, professional organizations, or regulatory bodies. Students should research the specific requirements and recognition standards within their intended field of practice.

Your privacy is important to us, and our collection and use of personal information is governed by our comprehensive Privacy Policy. By using our platform, you consent to the collection, processing, and use of your information as described in our Privacy Policy. We implement appropriate security measures to protect your personal data, but cannot guarantee absolute security of information transmitted over the internet.

Modification of Terms

We reserve the right to modify these Terms of Use at any time to reflect changes in our services, legal requirements, or business practices.
