Terms

The Academy plan is a monthly subscription. It opens everything the Academy holds while it runs: the skills, the training, the weekly challenges, and a monthly allowance of credits. It renews every month on the day you joined until you cancel. You can cancel at any time from your Settings; the month you have paid for stays open to its end, and nothing is charged after.

A course bought once before the plan existed is still yours to keep, and the plan is not needed for it. Nothing you bought is taken away by the plan.

"Yours to keep" means you may use the course for as long as we run the Academy and offer that course. We do not promise to run either forever. If we decide to close the Academy or retire a course you bought, we will tell you by email at least 60 days before, so you have time to finish.

We improve courses over time. Lessons may be added, changed or removed. You get the course as it is at the time you use it.

You sign in with an email address, by a one-time code or with Google. There is no password. Whoever controls that email address controls the account, so keep it secure.

An account is for one person. You may not share it, sell it or let others use it.

You must be at least 18, or the age of legal majority where you live, to buy a course.

Members of the Hypear community may have access to courses as part of their membership. That access depends on the membership and ends with it. It is not a purchase under these Terms.

Prices are shown in US dollars on the page you buy from. The price you pay is the one shown when you press the button to join or to buy. The plan's monthly price is charged on the day you join and on the same day each month after, until you cancel. We may change the plan's price; if we do, we tell you by email at least 30 days before the change applies to you, and you may cancel before it does.

A course may be offered at a launch price until a stated day. The launch price ends when that day has ended everywhere in the world, which is 12:00 UTC on the following day. After that the regular price applies.

Taxes may apply depending on where you live. If they do, the checkout shows them before you pay.

Payments are handled by Stripe. We do not receive or store your card details. Stripe sends your receipt by email.

Your access starts as soon as your payment clears. All sales are final: a month of the plan and a course bought once are paid for good, and cancelling the plan stops the next charge and does not refund the current month. Our Refund policy explains this and the cases in which we will put things right.

If you are a consumer in the European Union or the United Kingdom, you agree at checkout that your access starts immediately and that you give up the 14-day right to withdraw. We confirm this by email after you pay.

We give you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use the courses you have access to, for your own learning.

You may not:

• copy, record, publish or redistribute lessons, exercises or other Academy material;
• share your access, or resell a course;
• use Academy material to build or train a competing course or product;
• scrape the Academy, probe it for weaknesses, or interfere with how it works.

The Academy, its lessons, software, design and marks belong to us or to those who license them to us.

What you write and the pictures you generate in the Academy are yours, as far as the law and the terms of the AI model that made them allow. We claim no ownership of them.

You give us permission to store them, process them and show them back to you, so the Academy can work. We will not use your work in our marketing without asking you first.

Pictures made by an AI model are labelled as generated. Different people can get similar results from similar prompts, and the law on who owns AI output differs between countries. We make no promise that a picture can be protected by copyright or is free of others' rights.

Some lessons let you generate pictures or have your prompt checked by an AI model. To do this we send your prompt, and any picture you chose to work on, to the companies that run those models. Our Privacy policy names them.

AI output can be wrong, odd or offensive. It is your job to review what you make before you use it.

Generating uses credits. A month of the plan brings an allowance of them, and an account may come with some. Credits have no cash value, are not sold on their own, cannot be transferred, and are not refunded; an allowance not used is not owed. We may change what things cost in credits and how many a month brings. We set limits to keep the Academy fair and running.

You may not use the Academy to make content that is illegal, that sexualises minors, that harasses or defames a person, that shows a real person without the right to do so, or that infringes someone else's rights.

The Academy teaches a skill. We do not promise that you will get clients, a job or any income from it. What you earn depends on you and on things we do not control.

We may suspend or close an account that breaks these Terms, that is used for fraud, or whose payment is reversed. Where it is reasonable we will warn you first.

You may stop using the Academy at any time. To have your account deleted, write to us.

We work to keep the Academy running and correct, but we provide it "as is" and "as available". To the extent the law allows, we give no warranties, express or implied, including of fitness for a particular purpose or of uninterrupted service.

To the extent the law allows, our total liability to you for anything connected to the Academy is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim arose. We are not liable for lost profits, lost data or indirect losses.

Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, or takes away rights that the law of your country gives you as a consumer and that cannot be waived.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, United States, without regard to its conflict of law rules. Disputes are to be brought in the state or federal courts located in Florida.

If you are a consumer, you also keep the protection of the mandatory laws of the country where you live, and you may bring a claim in the courts of that country where those laws say so.

We may change these Terms. When a change matters, we will tell you by email or in the Academy before it takes effect. The version and date at the top say which Terms are in force. A change does not alter the price you already paid.
