Version 1 · effective 5 November 2026
Terms of Use
Draft, pending legal review.
These terms apply when you use AcademyOS: the app at app.academyos.io, its sign-in service, and the academies it runs. By signing in you agree to them. Our privacy notice explains what we keep about you.
Early access
AcademyOS is in early access and open by invitation only. Features may change, move or be removed, and the service may be unavailable at times. AcademyOS is free during early access; if paid features come, they will have their own terms, which you will see before you pay.
Your account
- You must be 18 or over, and sign in with an account that is yours.
- Keep your Google or GitHub account secure: whoever controls it can sign in to AcademyOS as you.
- Tell us at hello@academyos.io if you think someone else has used your account.
Your content
You keep ownership of what you publish: courses, lessons, quizzes, images and files. You give AcademyOS permission to store, copy and show it to the people you choose, such as your academy’s members, only so the service can run. That permission ends when you delete the content, apart from copies in backups until they are overwritten.
You are responsible for having the rights to what you publish. An academy, not AcademyOS, decides who may join it, what its courses teach, and when it issues a certificate. AcademyOS does not accredit academies or their certificates.
Acceptable use
Don’t use AcademyOS to:
- break the law, or publish content you have no right to publish;
- harass, threaten or deceive anyone, or publish hateful or sexually explicit content;
- upload malware, or try to get into accounts, data or systems that aren’t yours;
- overload the service, or copy it in bulk with automated tools;
- send spam, including invitations to people who haven’t asked for them.
We may remove content or suspend an account that breaks these terms, and will tell you why unless the law or safety prevents it.
Ending
You can stop using AcademyOS at any time and ask us to delete your account. We may end an account that breaks these terms, or end the service, in which case we will give account holders at least 30 days’ notice and a way to export their courses.
Our limits
AcademyOS is provided as it is, during early access, without warranties of any kind, to the extent the law allows. We are not liable for indirect losses, or for losses caused by content that others publish. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under consumer law that cannot be limited.
Changes
Each version of these terms is numbered and dated. We will tell account holders before a change takes effect, and using AcademyOS after that means you accept the new version.
