Data Privacy, Collection, & Use

Please review our Privacy Notice to understand our data collection and use practices. We will collect, process and use your personal information in accordance with our Privacy Notice.

We May Occasionally Need to Change the Terms of This EULA

Summary: We may occasionally need to update the rules in this EULA. But if we make meaningful changes, we’ll let you know. By continuing to use the Services, you agree to follow the updated rules.

Pearson may make changes to this EULA from time to time for any reason. Typically, these changes are made to conform to current practices, comply with changing regulatory requirements, or other similar purposes. If Pearson modifies this EULA in a manner that materially changes the terms or scope of the Services made available to you, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you by either contacting you via email or posting reasonable notice in connection with the Services to alert you to such changes. Your continued use of the Services after reasonable notice of such changes to the EULA has been provided will constitute your consent to the revised EULA terms, which shall apply to any use of the Services following reasonable notice. If you have any questions about this EULA, please contact us at Pearson Support.

What We Mean by The “Services”

Summary: By “Services,” we mean Pearson’s digital products, and everything that powers them. While Pearson or its licensors own them, we want you to use and enjoy the Services according to these rules.

This website and its related applications, technology, content, and services (collectively the "Services") are owned or licensed by Pearson. The Services may be delivered to you through the Internet via your browser or app (mobile or otherwise) and may include enrollment ("Enrollment") in one or more online courses ("Course(s)") or classes provided through the Services for use in connection with classes and programs offered by your school, employer, university, or other educational institution ("Institution"). While your User Account (defined below) for the Services may continue for an indefinite period of time during which you may enroll in other Courses, your access to those specific Courses provided through the Services is provided on a subscription basis for a limited period of time (each a "Subscription"). The Services may be provided directly by Pearson or accessed through a third-party integration with accounts managed by your Institution or an integrated third-party service provider ("Third-Party Service"). The Services may link to or provide options to access third-party websites or applications.

Who Is Authorized to Use the Services?

Summary: To use the Services, you’ll need to create a Pearson account. But don’t use the Services if you are a minor, UNLESS you’re enrolled in college.

The Services are available only to individuals, including but not limited to administrators or other representatives of Institutions, and students, who have gained lawful access to the Services directly from Pearson or its Third-Party Service provider or through the Institution with which such individual is affiliated ("Authorized User"). In order to initiate access to the Services, you must register for a user account ("User Account") by providing your first name, last name, valid email address (and in the case of Enrollments, your Institution and Course name or code), and designating a secret and unique username and password ("Account Credentials"), as well as any additional information that may be required by your Institution. In some cases, your User Account may already be established for you by your Institution, or by way of direct access from an integrated Third-Party Service, such as a learning management system, each of which may have additional terms of use or requirements for account access. Pearson may use your Account Credentials to validate your account prior to providing access to the Services each time you access the Services.

Unless otherwise agreed by Pearson in writing, you may have only one active User Account at any given time. You agree to provide accurate and truthful information when creating a User Account and to promptly update such information should it change.

You may not self-register for or otherwise access the Services if you are under the age of consent within your jurisdiction or under the age of 13 unless your Institution or parent has established an account or registered on your behalf. If you are under the age majority pursuant to the laws in your jurisdiction (typically under the age of 18), you may not register or use the Services without first obtaining permission from your parent or guardian. However, if you are under the applicable age of majority and enrolled at an institution of higher education, you may self-register for the Services.

You understand and acknowledge that the administrators associated with your Institution or a Third-Party Service may have access to your User Account and may suspend, modify or terminate your User Account and/or your access to the Services at any time and for any reason.

Please Keep Your Account Credentials Secret & Safe

Summary: You agree to: (1) keep your Account Credentials secret; (2) not let others log into your User Account; and (3) let us know if someone else gets hold of your Account Credentials.

Your User Account is for your personal use only. Unless we provide an approved mechanism for such use, allowing others to access or use the Services through your User Account is strictly prohibited and you are responsible for all uses of the Services associated with your User Account, whether the use is made by you personally or by a third party.

In order to protect the security of your Account Credentials and the Services, it is important that you maintain the confidentiality of your Account Credentials. You agree not to: (1) use Account Credentials other than your own; or (2) to disclose your Account Credentials to any third party or service, other than an authorized Third-Party Service. You agree to take reasonable steps to protect the secrecy of your Account Credentials and immediately notify Pearson at Pearson Support of any known or suspected loss, disclosure, or theft of your Account Credentials and/or access codes you obtain in connection with the Services.

The Services may provide functionalities for Authorized Users to create, upload, or post questions, responses, comments, ideas, articles, information, data, text, multimedia content, chat conversations or logs, messages, and other materials or submissions ("User Content"). You may only post User Content that is your own original work or for which you have obtained the necessary rights or permissions for reproduction and public display through the Services, and which includes any applicable ownership or attribution notices.

Pearson does not pre-screen User Content and assumes no responsibility for User Content.

Pearson has the right (but not the obligation), in its sole discretion, to monitor, refuse to post or otherwise distribute, or remove any User Content for any reason and to terminate your access to the Services to prevent further posting or distribution of Prohibited User Content.

Further, you acknowledge and agree that your User Content shall be available to other users on the same terms as granted by you to Pearson under this EULA and specifically this Section 12. Pearson shall not be responsible or liable for the deletion, destruction, damage, loss, or failure to store any User Content.

You agree to provide proper copyright notices in connection with any User Content in which you or a third party assert a right of copyright.

Pearson always welcomes suggestions and comments regarding the Services. Suggested improvements, additions, or other comments may be submitted by you to Pearson, whether through the Services, online, offline, verbally, or in writing ("User Suggestions"). Regardless of the manner of submission, you hereby acknowledge that all right, title, and interest and any other intellectual property rights in the User Suggestions shall become the exclusive property of Pearson and may be used for its business purposes at Pearson’s sole and absolute discretion without any payment or accounting to you.

Access to Third-Party Websites & Content Is at Your Own Risk

Summary: If the Services link or redirect you to non-Pearson websites or services, you agree to use them at your own risk.

Pearson assumes no responsibility for third-party content ("Third-Party Content"), services, or applications that may be accessed by way of links on the Services to sites hosted by third parties that are outside of Pearson's control ("Third-Party Sites"). Pearson does not endorse or guarantee the accuracy, integrity, or quality of Third-Party Sites or Third-Party Content and disclaims all liability for any errors, omissions, violation of third-party rights, or illegal conduct arising from such content or sites. The inclusion of a link to any ThirdParty Site in the Services does not imply that the owners of such Third-Party Sites have sponsored or endorsed the Services. Pearson is not responsible for the availability of Third-Party Sites accessed through links to the Services. Should you discover that a link to a Third-Party Site is no longer functional please contact us at Pearson Support. Any links which directs users to inappropriate content or Prohibited User Content should be reported to us at pearsondmca.agent@pearson.com.

Availability of the Services

Summary: You understand that the Services: (1) need Internet access to work; (2) may occasionally be offline for maintenance or emergencies; and (3) have features and functionality that may change over time.

The scope and availability of the Services may vary according to: (1) additional terms presented at the time of purchase or registration; (2) enrollment in or registration for a specific Course or Service; and/or (3) any licensing terms between Pearson and your Institution. Pearson is not responsible for limitations of access resulting from any Third-Party Service or as the result of certain account settings established by your Institution.

You are responsible for obtaining Internet access in order to use the Services. In some cases the Services are also available in an offline format where indicated. You may access a Course available through the Services only for the duration of the Subscription purchased (typically one or two semesters depending on the Course), whether or not the Services are used, and subject to Pearson's right to terminate access under this EULA. Institution access may be provided for a different time period.

While Pearson makes reasonable efforts to ensure the availability of the Services to Authorized Users with active Subscriptions, the Services may be unavailable for limited periods of time due to scheduled routine maintenance, emergency maintenance or factors beyond Pearson's control, such as disruptions of Internet services or unforeseen threats to the integrity or security of the Services.

Pearson may at any time, with or without notice to you, restrict the use and accessibility of the Services and/or discontinue any portion, feature, or content of the Services. Pearson will make reasonable efforts to provide Authorized Users with active Subscriptions notice of significant changes to the Services whenever reasonably feasible and provide alternative materials or services if substantial portions of the Services become unavailable. Information and updates about changes to the Services and its availability are posted regularly at Pearson Support.

Terminating Your Subscription & Access to the Services

Summary: You or Pearson may cancel your Subscription at any time for any reason set forth below.

• Trial Access. On a case-by-case basis, Services may be made available to you for a trial review period, typically for up to fifteen (15) days ("Review Period"). During the Review Period, you will be provided access to the Services without charge. If your Review Period is time limited, however, access to the Services offered for trial review will be terminated if payment is not made prior to the end of the Review Period. Termination of a Service does not automatically terminate your User Account. Further, you expressly acknowledge and agree that if at any time during the Review Period, Pearson, in its sole discretion, determines that you are utilizing the Review Period as a substitute or proxy for a paid Service, it may immediately terminate or suspend your access to the applicable Service for which you’ve been granted a Review Period. In the event of any suspension or termination of your access to such a Service, you acknowledge and agree that: (1) the Service, its functionality, activities, materials, or any results generated by your use thereof may not be available to you or any other person; and (2) neither you nor any other person are authorized to access or use any results generated by your use of the suspended or terminated Course, its functionality, activities, or materials regardless of whether such results are available within the Course or the Services. If your access to a Course is terminated due to you not purchasing a Course Subscription, and then Pearson subsequently reinstates your access to the Course upon later receiving payment, any such reinstated access shall remain subject to the terms of this EULA.
• Termination by You. Subject to account restrictions that may be imposed by your Institution or a Third-Party Service through which access to the Services is provided, you may terminate your User Account at any time by notifying Pearson of your decision to do so. Your satisfaction with the Services is important to us. If you have any concerns or complaints about the Services or wish to terminate your access to the Services, please contact us at Pearson Support.
• Termination by Pearson. Pearson may, in its sole discretion, and with or without advance notice, suspend your access to all or any part of the Services, or terminate your rights to use the Services, for any conduct or use (whether by you or anyone else having access to the Services under your User Account) that Pearson reasonably believes violates this EULA.
• Effect of Termination. Whether termination is initiated by you, your Institution or Pearson, Sections 12, 14, 17-22, and 26 of this EULA shall survive any such termination. Any User Account information, data, settings or specifications, or customizations of a Service or Subscription specific to your User Account may be permanently lost upon termination of a Service or Subscription, whether by you, Pearson, or your Institution. User Content and other user information associated with your use of the Services may still be accessible by your Institution or, to the extent it is posted in a public forum, to other users of the Services for which such information was posted, even after termination.

Your Exclusive Remedies Under This EULA

Summary: If something goes wrong, your remedies under this EULA are: (1) restoration of access to the Services; or (2) a refund of fees.

Pearson's entire liability to you, and your sole and exclusive remedy, regarding the use of the Services shall be either, in Pearson’s sole discretion: (1) restoration of access to the Services to which you have subscribed; or (2) a refund of any fees paid directly by you to Pearson for the particular Service or Subscription. When available, refunds will only be made if requested by you in writing within the first 30 days after Enrollment or registration. Refunds can only be provided for purchases made directly from Pearson's website by an Authorized User. Refunds are not available for lost or stolen access codes, or any purchases made through third parties (for example, your campus bookstore). If you are dissatisfied with a Service or wish to request a refund, please contact us at Pearson Support.

The Services Come with No Warranties

Summary: The Services’ availability and performance occasionally may be less than perfect, and you nonetheless agree to use them “as-is” and at your own risk.

YOU EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT: (1) YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES IS AT YOUR OWN RISK. THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS; (2) YOU HAVE NOT RELIED ON ANY STATEMENT, INFORMATION, OR ADVICE FROM PEARSON'S REPRESENTATIVES OR RESELLERS THAT WOULD BE DEEMED TO BE A WARRANTY OF THESE SERVICES OR FORM THE BASIS FOR ANY LIABILITY OF PEARSON; AND (3) TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, PEARSON AND ITS LICENSORS AND CONTRACTORS EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING THOSE CREATED BY COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, COURSE OF DEALING, USAGE OF TRADE, AND WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

NO ACTION, REGARDLESS OF FORM, ARISING UNDER THIS EULA MAY BE BROUGHT BY YOU MORE THAN ONE YEAR AFTER THE FACTS SUPPORTING THE CAUSE OF ACTION HAVE BECOME KNOWN, OR REASONABLY SHOULD HAVE BECOME KNOWN, TO YOU. NOTHING IN THIS EULA IS INTENDED TO EXCLUDE OR LIMIT ANY CONDITION, WARRANTY, RIGHT, OR LIABILITY THAT MAY NOT BE LAWFULLY EXCLUDED OR LIMITED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.
