Accepted Payment Methods

Payments may be made via bank transfer and/or secure payment processors (cards, direct debit, payment links). Payment instructions are provided via invoice or portal.

If a payment fails (insufficient funds, expired card, blocked card), you must update payment details promptly. We may suspend access until resolved.

Chargebacks / Payment Disputes

If you initiate a chargeback or payment dispute:

● if the chargeback is resolved in our favor, you remain responsible for any outstanding balances and may be responsible for reasonable administrative costs where permitted by law.


Refunds, Cancellation Rights, and Consumer Protections

● your Enrollment Contract explicitly provides refunds, or

● Mandatory law requires a refund/price reduction/other remedy.

EU/UK/EEA Distance-Sales Withdrawal (Digital Content)

If you are a consumer in the EU/EEA/UK, you may have a legal right to withdraw from a distance contract within a set period (commonly 14 days) unless an exception applies.

Important: Where legally required, if you request immediate access to digital content/services, you may be asked to provide:

● express consent to begin performance immediately, and

● acknowledgement that you may lose the withdrawal right once the digital

content/service is delivered or performance begins (as applicable).

Your results depend on your effort, time, and other factors outside our control.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law:

● your illegal acts,

● infringement caused by your uploads,

Upon termination:

We will try to resume services as soon as reasonably possible.

Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms. Material changes will be posted with an updated “Last Updated” date and may be notified via email or portal. Continued use after changes means acceptance, except where prohibited by law. Changes do not retroactively alter your Enrollment Contract unless agreed in writing.

Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of North Macedonia, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.

Consumer Rights Carve-Out: If you are a consumer and your local mandatory consumer laws provide protections that override parts of these Terms, those mandatory protections apply.

Courts of competent jurisdiction in [Skopje, North Macedonia] will have jurisdiction, unless mandatory law requires otherwise.

Dispute Resolution (Practical + Professional)

Before formal legal action, both sides agree to attempt good-faith resolution:

2. Allow 14 days for response and negotiation.

3. If unresolved, either party may proceed under Section 23.

● You: the email address linked to your student account (or stated in your Enrollment

Contract)

Notices are deemed received:

● for email: when sent (unless bounced),

● for mail/courier: upon confirmed delivery.

Severability, Waiver, Assignment

● Severability: If a provision is unlawful/unenforceable, the remainder stays effective.

● Waiver: Failure to enforce a right is not a waiver of that right.

● Assignment: You may not assign your rights/obligations without written consent. We may assign in connection with a merger, acquisition, or restructuring.
