2. Eligibility and Accounts
Users must be at least 13 years of age to create an account. Students under 13 require a parent or guardian to create a parent account and provide verifiable consent before the student account is activated. See our Privacy Policy for details on how we handle children's data under UK GDPR and the Age Appropriate Design Code.
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account.
3. Use of the Service
The Service is designed to supplement — not replace — classroom teaching. AI-generated content is provided for educational purposes only. While we strive for accuracy, we do not guarantee that all information provided by the AI tutor is correct.
You agree not to:
- Use the Service for any purpose other than legitimate educational study
- Attempt to circumvent usage limits, parental controls, or access restrictions
- Share your account credentials with others
- Upload harmful, offensive, or illegal content
- Attempt to reverse-engineer or interfere with the Service
4. Subscriptions and Payments
Paid plans are billed through Stripe. Subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled before the end of the billing period. Credit packs do not expire. Free starter credits are non-transferable. Refunds are handled in accordance with UK consumer protection law.
5. Data and Privacy
We collect and process personal data as described in our Privacy Policy. Session transcripts, summaries, and progress data are stored to provide the tutoring service and are accessible only to the student and any linked parent/guardian accounts.
6. Intellectual Property
All content, software, and materials provided through the Service are owned by or licensed to studysesh ltd. (trading as Director of Studies). Educational content is derived from publicly available exam board specifications and study materials, appropriately attributed.
7. Limitation of Liability
The Service is provided “as is” without warranty. We are not liable for any examination results, academic outcomes, or decisions made based on information provided by the AI tutor. Our total liability to any User shall not exceed the amount paid by that User in the preceding 12 months.
8. Termination
You may delete your account at any time from your settings page. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms. Upon termination, your data will be handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy and GDPR obligations.
