PLEASE PRINT OR SAVE A COPY OF THESE TERMS FOR YOUR REFERENCE BEFORE EXITING THIS PAGE.

YOU AFFIRM THAT YOU ARE ENROLLING IN GUIDON, A KAPLAN BRAND, PRODUCTS FOR THE SOLE PURPOSE OF EARNING A CREDENTIAL, PREPARING FOR AN EXAMINATION, OR ENGAGING IN A GENUINE LEARNING EXPERIENCE AND NOT AT THE DISCRETION OF, OR FOR THE BENEFIT OF, ANY COMPETITOR OR THIRD PARTY WITH INTENT TO CAUSE HARM TO KAPLAN.

These enrollment terms, together with the Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy govern your purchase (collectively “Terms”) with Guidon, a Kaplan brand. Please carefully review the Terms in their entirety before proceeding to checkout and retain a copy for your records. If your purchase is for use by another, these Terms govern both you and other(s) who use the Guidon product (collectively, “You”). You acknowledge you are the age of majority in your state and agree to be bound by these Terms, which is a legally binding agreement between Kaplan and You. Individuals aged 13-17 are required to have parents or guardians consent prior to activation of access to Guidon products.

Payment and Billing

You must pay in full for your purchase in one payment. You certify that you are an authorized user of the credit card, debit card, or bank account provided, and you authorize Kaplan to charge that account in the amount shown for the purchase at checkout. We reserve the right to correct any incorrect pricing / charges that may have occurred. Any applicable discounts must be made at the time of purchase. Promotions cannot be combined or applied retroactively. Purchases may be subject to taxes. Tax rates are different from state to state and country by country. You are responsible for paying all such taxes.

One Accountholder Per Person

Each purchase provides access solely for one individual ("Account Holder") to the learner portal to engage with the product during the Access Period. Similarly, each enrollment is also for one person and a set access period. You must choose a password and are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of the password and for any and all use of the account or accountholder. You agree not to disclose your password to any third party or share your enrollment with others. Subject to compliance with the Terms and payment, Kaplan grants You a limited, personal, non-exclusive, revocable and non-transferable license to access the products and Kaplan services. You may not purchase an enrollment for the purpose of sharing, reselling or distributing it for profit. A breach or violation of any of the Terms will result in an immediate termination of the access to all services. Kaplan reserves the right to modify the Terms and the availability of services at any time without notice.

Access Period and Included Content

Your purchase gives the Account Holder access to the product purchased for twelve (12) months from the date of purchase, or as otherwise stated at checkout (the "Access Period"). The end date of your Access Period is shown on your receipt. Your purchase includes the content described on the product page at the time of purchase. Kaplan may at its discretion choose to add topics or other content during your Access Period, at no additional charge. Regardless of any content added during your Access Period, access shall end on the date shown on your receipt upon purchase, even if that content is added shortly before the end date of your Access Period. Kaplan may add, update, or remove topics from time to time, is not obligated to add any particular topic or content, and does not commit to any release date. Other products are sold separately.

End of Access Period

When your Access Period ends, your access to the product and all content included in it ends. Kaplan may, at its discretion, offer you the option to extend your Access Period for an additional fee. Any extension is a separate one-time purchase, is subject to these Terms, and does not renew automatically.

Price Changes

Kaplan may change the price for new purchases at any time. A price change does not affect the price you paid or the content and Access Period included in your purchase.

Refund Policy

You may request a full refund within fourteen (14) days of your purchase date by contacting Customer Support. Access ends when the refund is requested. After fourteen days from the date of your purchase, fees paid are non-refundable. Any approved refunds will be issued to the original payment method and the payor within 60 business days after the request is received and processed.

Circumstances in Which No Refund Is Available

No refund is available where your access has been terminated or suspended for breach of these Terms, including the Student Code of Conduct, password or account sharing, resale, or unauthorized reproduction, distribution, or submission of Content into any AI software.

Purchases Made By or Through Another Party

Where an employer, school, program, government agency, or other organization has purchased a product for you or arranged your access, refunds and cancellations are governed by that organization’s written agreement with Kaplan and not by this section, and any refund due is payable to that organization rather than to you.

Performance Feedback

You will receive feedback about your performance on the tests and exams utilized in the products. You understand that the performance feedback is intended to highlight areas of your strengths and weaknesses and to assist you in your preparation for the exam. The performance feedback is in no way intended to act as a projection or a forecast of your actual exam score and is solely a diagnostic tool of your knowledge as you prepare for the exam. Your practice scores may be affected by factors beyond Kaplan’s control. Kaplan does not guarantee acceptance to any school or residency program, passage of any exam or any other such outcome. Kaplan does not unconditionally promise or represent any outcome, score, or increase.

Technology Requirements

You agree that you will access the products through your own desktop or laptop computer running an operating system that receives security updates and connected to a reliable broadband internet connection. For the best experience, we recommend using the latest stable version of Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge and keeping your browser updated. JavaScript and cookies necessary for sign-in and product functionality must be enabled. Speakers or headphones are needed to hear any audio content.

Content Modifications and Releases

You understand and agree that Kaplan has the right to revise the content of its online products from time to time to meet its training objectives. It may add or remove materials that it considers unnecessary or no longer relevant for exam preparation. Once the material is removed it will not be accessible and will no longer be available.

Student Code of Conduct

Kaplan may terminate access to the products for those students whom Kaplan deems in its discretion to be disruptive to the learning environment, harassing or dangerous to other students or faculty, repeatedly violate policies such as classroom etiquette, have acted in a manner that shows lack of dignity and respect for faculty and/or students, have violated any intellectual property rights of Kaplan or others, or have engaged in academic misconduct, such as cheating or violating confidentiality. Students removed for violations of the Code of Conduct are not eligible for refunds or eligible to purchase other products with Kaplan.

Sanctions and Export Compliance

Kaplan complies with U.S., UK, EU, and other economic and/or trade sanctions and export laws and regulations. Kaplan products and services are not intended for distribution or use in any jurisdiction or country where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or regulation or which would subject Kaplan to any registration requirement within such jurisdiction or country. Thus, no Kaplan software or services may be used, downloaded by, exported, or re-exported to: (a) a person located, organized, or ordinarily resident in any country that is the subject of comprehensive sanctions imposed by the U.S., UK, EU, or UN; (b) any person listed on any U.S., UK, EU, or other relevant sanctions- or export controls-related list of prohibited or restricted parties, including but not limited to the U.S. Treasury Department's list of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Nationals, the U.S. Commerce Department's Denied Persons List or Entity List, the UK sanctions list, or the EU consolidated list of persons, groups, and entities subject to EU financial sanctions; (c) any entity 50% or more owned, directly or indirectly, or controlled by any such person(s) described in (a) or (b); or (d) to any person otherwise blocked by or the subject of sanctions imposed by the U.S., UK, EU, or other relevant government or governing body.

Current students or customers traveling or relocating outside of the U.S. may be unable to access the learning management system, services, and courses from countries or regions subject to economic and/or trade sanctions by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) or other authorities.

Arbitration and Class/Collective Action Waiver

Any and all disputes arising from or related to this Agreement, including whether the dispute is arbitrable and the scope of this arbitration agreement, shall be finally resolved by arbitration administered by a single arbitrator under the then-applicable rules of the American Arbitration Association (as modified herein) in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act. The arbitration shall be governed by and construed by federal law to the fullest extent possible. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, the arbitration shall take place in the largest U.S. city within 100 miles of your permanent residence. If You reside outside the United States, then the arbitration shall take place in accordance with the American Arbitration Association Consumer Rules and Protocol. Judgment on the arbitral award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, should You wish to initiate a legal action against Kaplan in arbitration, You waive any right or ability to be a class or collective action representative or to otherwise participate in any putative or certified class, collective or multi-party action or proceeding based on such a claim in which Kaplan or a related entity is a party. The same applies to Kaplan's legal actions against You. Thus, You and Kaplan agree that each may bring claims in arbitration against the other only in your or its individual capacity and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class. Further, unless both You and Kaplan agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims and may not otherwise preside over a representative or class proceeding.

Miscellaneous

These Terms supersede all prior oral or written agreements and constitute the entire agreement between the parties. Terms cannot be changed or modified orally. If any provision of Terms is found to be unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be construed by limiting it to make it enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law, and the remainder of Terms shall continue in full force and effect.
