Legal
Terms of service
These terms describe how coaching institutes and the users they invite can access Apneeds, and the mutual obligations that come with that access.
Who these terms apply to
These terms apply to the coaching institute that opens an account on Apneeds and to any user - owner, administrator, teacher, student or parent - who accesses the platform under that account.
What Apneeds is offered as
Apneeds is a hosted platform. Access is provided as a service on the plan the institute has selected. The platform is offered as-is, subject to reasonable service availability and the responsibilities set out here.
Accounts and access
- The institute is responsible for the accuracy of its account information and the identity of the users it invites.
- Each user must keep their login credentials secure and must not share them with anyone.
- Suspected unauthorised access must be reported to us through the contact form as soon as possible.
- We may suspend accounts or specific users where we reasonably believe the platform is being misused.
Acceptable use
The platform may not be used to upload or transmit content that is unlawful, harassing, defamatory or that infringes third-party rights. Attempts to access data belonging to another institute, to disrupt the platform, to bypass technical controls, or to scrape data in bulk without authorisation are not permitted.
Content and ownership
The institute retains all rights to the content it or its users upload - notes, quizzes, worked examples, fee records, rosters and similar material. By using the platform, the institute grants us a limited licence to host, process and display that content strictly to operate the platform on the institute’s behalf.
Aggregate and de-identified information generated by platform usage may be used by us to operate, secure and improve the platform. This does not include the underlying identifiable content of any student, parent or teacher.
Aggregate and de-identified information generated by platform usage may be used by us to operate, secure and improve the platform. This does not include the underlying identifiable content of any student, parent or teacher.
AI-generated outputs
The platform includes AI-generated explanations, plans and messages. These outputs draw on the institute’s own material where available. They are useful but not infallible. The institute remains responsible for reviewing outputs that will be sent to parents or used to take material actions.
Fees and payment
Institute plans are billed on the cycle chosen at onboarding. Fees for a paid cycle are non-refundable once the cycle has begun, except where required by law. Where usage - for example outbound SMS or WhatsApp - is billed at pass-through, that usage is shown in advance on the account.
Confidentiality
Non-public information exchanged between the institute and us during onboarding, support and general operation is treated as confidential and used only for the purpose of running the service.
Availability and support
We work to keep the platform available continuously, subject to planned maintenance windows and events beyond our reasonable control. Support scope depends on the plan in force, as described on the Pricing page.
Termination
Either side may terminate access at the end of the current billing cycle with reasonable notice. We may terminate immediately in the event of a material breach of these terms. On termination, the institute may export its data within a defined window before it is deleted.
Liability
To the extent permitted by law, our aggregate liability in connection with the platform is limited to the fees paid by the institute for the twelve months preceding the event giving rise to the claim. We are not liable for indirect or consequential losses.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of India. Any dispute is subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent courts at the seat of the operating team.
Changes to these terms
Material changes will be communicated to institute administrators. Continued use of the platform after such a change indicates acceptance of the updated terms.
Contact
Notices under these terms can be sent through the contact form on the contact page.
