These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") govern your use of the TheLinkAI Academy website and your registration for our workshops and courses. The seller and contracting party is Hardik Nareshkumar Bhatt, trading as TheLinkAI Academy ("we", "us", "the seller"). By using this website or registering for a workshop, you agree to these Terms.

1. Our service

TheLinkAI Academy provides instructor-led, in-person and online AI training workshops and courses for students and professionals, including hands-on sessions on generative AI tools and workflows.

2. Acceptance and eligibility

By continuing to use the service or completing a registration, you accept these Terms. You confirm that you are of legal age to enter a binding contract, or that you have the authority to bind the organisation you represent.

3. Payments, billing and refunds

Our order process is conducted by our online reseller Paddle.com. Paddle.com is the Merchant of Record for all our orders. Paddle provides all customer service inquiries and handles returns.

Payment, billing, taxes, cancellations and refunds are handled in accordance with Paddle's Buyer Terms. Fees are charged per workshop batch at the price shown at the time of registration, and are due in full before your seat is confirmed. Our refund terms are set out in our Refund Policy.

4. Registrations and seats

A registration holds a provisional seat and is confirmed once payment is completed and verified. Batch sizes are limited; we may decline or cancel a registration where a batch is full or payment is not completed, in which case any amount paid will be refunded.

5. Acceptable use

You must not misuse the service. In particular, you must not:

• use the service for any unlawful purpose, fraud or spam;
• infringe intellectual property rights of any person;
• interfere with the security of the service, including introducing malware, probing, scanning or scraping our systems;
• share, resell or redistribute course materials or recordings without our written permission.

6. Generative AI content

Our workshops teach the use of generative AI tools. You are responsible for your own prompts and inputs, for how you use AI-generated outputs, for verifying the accuracy of outputs, and for ensuring you have the rights to any content you submit to AI tools. You must not use skills learned in our workshops to create illegal content, deepfakes, hate speech or malware, or to circumvent the safeguards of any AI service. AI outputs may be inaccurate and are not a substitute for regulated professional advice (legal, medical, financial) without qualified oversight.

7. Intellectual property

We retain all ownership of the service and its intellectual property, including course materials, software, documentation and branding. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to access and use the materials for your personal learning within your selected workshop. You must not reverse engineer, copy, resell or redistribute the service or materials.

You must provide accurate registration information and keep it up to date. You are responsible for activity carried out under your registration. You grant us a limited licence to host and process any content you provide solely to deliver the service.

9. Service level and warranties

We do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation of the website or service. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all implied warranties, including merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose.

10. Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, our aggregate liability arising from these Terms is capped at the fees you paid to us in the 12 months preceding the claim. We are not liable for indirect, consequential or special damages, including loss of profits, data or goodwill. Nothing in these Terms excludes liability for fraud, death or personal injury where such exclusion is not permitted by law.

11. Suspension and termination

We may suspend or terminate your access for material breach of these Terms, non-payment, security or fraud risk, or repeated or serious violations of our policies. On termination, your access ends; where practicable we will tell you what happens to any data associated with your registration.

12. General

These Terms are governed by the laws of India, and disputes are subject to the courts of Gujarat, India. You may not assign your rights without our consent; we may assign ours in connection with a merger or acquisition. We are not liable for delays or failures caused by events beyond our reasonable control. If any part of these Terms is unenforceable, the rest remains in force.
