We strongly recommend that, as you read this User Agreement, you also access and read the linked information. By accepting this User Agreement, you agree that this User Agreement and Privacy Policy will apply whenever you use CourseHorse sites or services, or when you use the tools we make available to interact with CourseHorse sites and services.

  • use our sites, services or tools if you are not able to form legally binding contracts, are under the age of 18, or are temporarily or indefinitely suspended from using our sites, services or tools;

  • fail to deliver a class purchased from you, unless the student fails to meet the posted terms, or you cannot authenticate the student's identity;
  • manipulate the price of any class or interfere with other users' listings;
  • circumvent or manipulate our fee structure, the billing process, or fees owed to CourseHorse;
  • post false, inaccurate, misleading, defamatory, or libelous content (including personal information);

Abusing CourseHorse

CourseHorse and our users work together to keep our sites and services working properly and safely. Please report problems, offensive content, and policy violations to us.Without limiting other remedies, we may limit, suspend or terminate our service and user accounts, prohibit access to our sites and their content, services and tools, delay or remove hosted content, and take technical and legal steps to keep users off the sites if we think that they are creating problems or possible legal liabilities, infringing the intellectual property rights of third parties, or acting inconsistently with the letter or spirit of our policies (for example, and without limitation, conducting off-CourseHorse transactions, feedback manipulation, circumventing temporary or permanent suspensions or users who we believe are harassing our employees or other users). Additionally, we may, in appropriate circumstances and at our discretion, suspend or terminate accounts of users who may be repeat infringers of intellectual property rights of third parties. We also reserve the right to cancel unconfirmed accounts or accounts that have been inactive for a long time, or to modify or discontinue CourseHorse sites, services or tools.

Student Protection

Students and educators share the responsibility for making sure purchases facilitated by CourseHorse are exciting, rewarding and hassle-free. We strongly encourage students to work with educators before opening a claim relating to a purchase.We require CourseHorse educators to comply with our resolution process. Students and educators permit us to make a final decision, in our sole discretion, on any claim that a student files with CourseHorse under the CourseHorse Student Protection Policy. If we resolve a dispute in the student's favor, we will refund the student for the full cost of the class (including any applicable sales taxes), and we will require the educator to reimburse us for the amount due to the student. Without limiting the foregoing, educators may not have to pay a reimbursement for a CourseHorse claim if they provide sufficient documentation (for example, proof that the class was as described). Educators agree to allow us to debit their monthly account balance for amounts due to students. If educators do not provide CourseHorse with a valid reimbursement method, we may collect amounts owed using other collection mechanisms, including retaining collection agencies. We may also suspend or restrict educators from selling on our sites until payment is made.

  • Correcting Mistakes in Payments to Students or Educators.  We reserve the right to fix any processing errors we discover. We will correct any processing errors by debiting or crediting the payment method used for the erroneous student or educator refunds or reimbursements.

Fees and Services

You have an opportunity to review and accept the fees that you will be charged based on your particular Fee Schedule, available within your account information. Changes to that schedule are effective after we provide you with at least fourteen days' notice by posting the changes on the CourseHorse site. We may choose to temporarily change the fees for our services for promotional events (for example, free listing days) or new services, and such changes are effective when we post the temporary promotional event or new service on the sites.Unless otherwise stated, all fees are quoted in U.S. Dollars. Fees will be debited from your monthly account balance. If your payment method fails or your account is past due, we may collect fees owed using other collection mechanisms.
