Your Submitted Content will not infringe or misappropriate any third party's intellectual property rights. You have the required qualifications, credentials, and expertise (including education, training, knowledge, and skill sets) to teach and offer the services that you offer through your Submitted Content and use of the Services; and You will ensure a quality of service that corresponds with the standards of your industry and instruction services in general.

Post or provide any inappropriate, offensive, racist, hateful, sexist, pornographic, false, misleading, incorrect, infringing, defamatory or libellous content or information; post or transmit any unsolicited or unauthorized advertising, promotional materials, junk mail, spam, or any other form of solicitation (commercial or otherwise) through the Services or to any user; use the Services for business other than providing tutoring, teaching, and instructional services to students; engage in any activity that would require us to obtain licenses from or pay royalties to any third party, including the need to pay royalties for the public performance of a musical work or sound recording; frame or embed the Services (such as to embed a free version of a course) or otherwise circumvent the Services; impersonate another person or gain unauthorized access to another person's account; interfere with or otherwise prevent other instructors from providing their services or content; or abuse Ezstudy.lk resources, including support services.

License to Ezstudy.lk

You grant Ezstudy.lk the rights detailed in the Terms of Use to offer, market, and otherwise exploit your Submitted Content. This includes the right to add captions or otherwise modify Submitted Content to ensure accessibility. You also authorize Ezstudy.lk to sublicense these rights to your Submitted Content to third parties, including to students directly and through third parties such as resellers, distributors, affiliate sites, deal sites, and paid advertising on third-party platforms. Unless otherwise agreed you have the right to remove all or any portion of your Submitted Content from the Services at any time. Except as otherwise agreed, Ezstudy.lk's right to sublicense the rights in this section will terminate with respect to new users 60 days after the Submitted Content's removal. However, (1) rights given to students before the Submitted Content's removal will continue in accordance with the terms of those licenses (including any grants of lifetime access) and (2) Ezstudy.lk's right to use such Submitted Content for marketing purposes shall survive termination. We may record and use all or any part of your Submitted Content for quality control and for delivering, marketing, promoting, demonstrating, or operating the Services. You grant Ezstudy.lk permission to use your name, likeness, voice, and image in connection with offering, delivering, marketing, promoting, demonstrating, and selling the Services, your Submitted Content, or Ezstudy.lk's content, and you waive any rights of privacy, publicity, or other rights of a similar nature, to the extent permissible under applicable law.

Co-Instructors and Teaching Assistants

The Ezstudy.lk allows you to add other users as co-instructors or teaching assistants for Submitted Content that you manage. By adding a co-instructor or teaching assistant, you understand that you are authorizing them to take certain actions that affect your Ezstudy.lk account and Submitted Content. Violations of Ezstudy.lk's terms and policies by your co-instructor or teaching assistant may also impact your Ezstudy.lk account and Submitted Content. Ezstudy.lk is not able to advise on any questions or mediate any disputes between you and such users.

Relationship to Other Users

Instructors do not have a direct contractual relationship with students, so the only information you will receive about students is what is provided to you through the Services. You agree that you will not use the data you receive for any purpose other than providing your services to those students on the Ezstudy.lk, and that you won't solicit additional personal data or store students' personal data outside the Ezstudy.lk platform. You agree to indemnify Ezstudy.lk against any claims arising from your use of students' personal data.

Price Setting

When creating Submitted Content available for purchase on Ezstudy.lk, you will be prompted to select a price for your Submitted Content. Alternatively, you may choose to offer your Submitted Content for free.

If you do not opt to participate in any Promotional Programs, we will list your Submitted Content for the set Price or the closest local price. If you opt to participate in a Promotional Program, we may set a different discounted price or list price for your Submitted Content.

When a student purchases using a foreign currency, we will convert the relevant Base Price or Promotional Program price into the student's applicable currency using a system-wide foreign currency conversion rate set by Ezstudy.lk and fixed periodically into a table of corresponding price tiers by currency.

You give us permission to share your Submitted Content for free with our employees, with selected partners, and in cases where we need to restore access to accounts who have previously purchased your Submitted Content. You understand that you will not receive compensation in these cases.

Promotional Programs

Ezstudy.lk offers several optional marketing programs in which you can choose to participate. These programs can help increase your revenue potential on Ezstudy.lk by finding the optimal price point for your Submitted Content and offering them through subscriptions collections.

Revenue Share

When a student purchases your Submitted Content, we calculate the gross amount of the sale as the amount received by Ezstudy.lk from the student ("Gross Amount"). From this, we subtract any Transaction Taxes, any mobile platform fees applied to mobile provider checkout sales, a 6% service and processing fee.

Ezstudy.lk makes all instructor payments in LKR (Sri Lankan Rupees) regardless of the currency with which the sale was made. Ezstudy.lk is not responsible for your foreign currency conversion fees, wiring fees, or any other processing fees that you may incur. Your revenue report will show the sales price (in local currency)

Receiving Payments

For us to pay you in a timely manner, you must own a Sri Lankan bank account in good standing and must keep us informed of the correct email associated with your account. You must also provide any identifying information necessary for payment of amounts due, and you agree that we have the right to withhold appropriate taxes from your payments. We reserve the right to withhold payments or impose other penalties if we do not receive proper identifying information or tax documentation from you. You understand and agree that you are ultimately responsible for any taxes on your income. Depending on the applicable revenue share model, payment will be made within 45 days of the end of the month in which (a) we receive the fee for a course or (b) the relevant course consumption occurred. We reserve the right not to pay out funds in the event of identified fraud, violations of intellectual property rights, or other violations of the law.

Refunds

You acknowledge and agree that students have the right to receive a refund, as detailed in the Terms of Use. Instructors will not receive any revenue from transactions for which a refund has been granted under the Terms of Use. If a student asks for a refund after we have paid the relevant instructor payment, we reserve the right to either (1) deduct the amount of the refund from the next payment sent to the instructor or (2) where no further payments are due to the instructor or the payments are insufficient to cover the refunded amounts, require the instructor to refund any amounts refunded to students for the instructor's Submitted Content.
