Online course terms that suit your enrolment and content access

Key details include whether the course is self-paced or cohort-based, whether access is one-off or recurring, what refund position you want to take, and whether students receive recordings, downloads, live support or community access. It also matters how customers sign up, when they get access, and whether there are upsells, trials or bonus inclusions. If you collect personal information through checkout forms, student dashboards or discussion spaces, the drafting may also turn on how that information is collected, used and shared.

After you place your order, you will be asked for details about the course, platform, pricing model and any current terms you want reviewed. A lawyer then prepares a draft or markup based on that information, and one round of amendments is included after your feedback. Timing will vary depending on whether you have a straightforward single course or a more layered setup with memberships, subscriptions or app access. If you also need related website terms or privacy documents, that can be discussed as separate work.

No. This service covers the legal drafting or review of the online course terms and conditions themselves. It does not include configuring your learning platform, changing checkout settings, implementing technical controls, or acting for you in a dispute with a student or payment provider. If your business later changes its course structure, adds a membership library or introduces a new delivery channel, the terms may need updating and that can be arranged as a separate piece of work.

Problems often show up after payment, not before it. A student may ask for a refund after opening modules, share login details with others, dispute how long access lasts, or reuse worksheets and recordings beyond what you intended. If your offer includes live calls, a private community or bonus content, expectations can become even less clear. Well-written terms help set the ground rules around purchase, access, use of materials and account behaviour, which gives you a clearer position if issues come up later.

They commonly cover who can enrol, what the customer is buying, pricing, payment methods, refund settings, access periods, account security, acceptable use, intellectual property and restrictions on copying or sharing course content. Depending on the product, the terms may also deal with live sessions, replays, downloadable resources, certificates, community rules, subscription renewals or tiered access. If your course is sold through a website, app or member portal, the wording may also need to reflect how users interact with those systems in practice.
