2. Terms and Conditions for Accessing Recorded Course Materials (course recordings are at the discretion of the teacher)

Access and Usage
Students enrolled in online language courses are granted access to recorded sessions for personal use only. The recordings are intended solely for individual study.

Prohibited Sharing and Distribution
Students are strictly prohibited from sharing, distributing, or making recordings available to third parties, including those not enrolled in the course or who have not paid the required fee. Unauthorized sharing via any means (e.g., social media, electronic platforms) is not allowed.

Intellectual Property Rights
All course recordings, materials, and content remain the intellectual property of SSEES. Unauthorized reproduction or distribution may result in legal action.

Monitoring and Compliance
We reserve the right to monitor the usage of recorded materials. Any violation may lead to suspension of access, course removal, and potential legal action.

Consequences of Violation
Breaches, including unauthorized sharing, will result in revocation of access to all course materials. Disciplinary actions, including legal proceedings, may be pursued.


3. Background Appropriateness Policy

To maintain a respectful and conducive learning environment, students must observe the following guidelines when attending online classes:

  1. No Offensive Content: Backgrounds must be free from discriminatory, explicit, or violent content.
  2. Professional Setting: Choose a neutral or professional background (e.g., a simple, tidy physical background or virtual background).
  3. Privacy Considerations: Be mindful of personal and others’ privacy. Avoid displaying personal information or private spaces.
  4. Tutor Discretion: Tutors may request a background change if it is deemed inappropriate or distracting.
  5. Non-Refundable Course Fees: Non-compliance with these guidelines may result in removal from the session, without a refund.

Refunds
Refunds will only be processed if a student notifies Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê SSEES in writing at least two weeks before the start of term. No refunds will be given for cancellations made less than two weeks before term begins.

Due to substantial subsidies for Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê students, refunds are only available if the student has enrolled for a minimum of 3 terms in advance.

The amount of refund you will receive, if you inform us that you wish to withdraw at least 2 weeks before the start of the first, second or third term, will vary based on any discount you received at the time of enrolment. For calculation, please click on the appropriate link below:
