Terms of Use

Summary: Skoolari is a tool for teachers. Use it lawfully and professionally. You own your data. We own the platform. Do not misuse the AI features, share accounts, or upload content you do not have the right to use. Paid subscriptions auto-renew. You can cancel anytime.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using Skoolari ("the Service," "the Platform"), including registering for an account, uploading materials, or generating assessments, you ("User," "Teacher," "you") agree to be bound by these Terms of Use ("Terms") and our Privacy Policy.

If you are using Skoolari on behalf of a school, institution, or organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity to these Terms, and "you" refers to both you individually and that entity.

If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use Skoolari. We reserve the right to update these Terms at any time with at least 14 days notice to registered users before material changes take effect.

2. Description of Service

  • Subject folder organization for materials, assessments, and grade records

The Service is provided on a subscription basis with a limited free tier. We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Service at any time, with reasonable notice where possible.

5. Content and Intellectual Property

5.1 Your content

You retain full ownership of all content you upload to Skoolari, including instructional materials, student grade records, and generated assessments that incorporate your materials. You grant Skoolari a limited, non-exclusive license to store, process, and display your content solely for the purpose of providing the Service to you.

5.2 AI-generated content

Assessments generated by Skoolari's AI from your materials are produced for your use. You may use them freely for your teaching purposes. We make no warranty as to the accuracy of AI-generated assessments — you are responsible for reviewing generated content before distributing it to students.

5.3 Skoolari intellectual property

The Skoolari platform, including its software, design, branding, user interface, and underlying technology, is owned by Skoolari and protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or create derivative works of the platform without our written permission.

5.4 Feedback

If you provide suggestions, ideas, or feedback about the Service, you grant us a perpetual, royalty-free license to use that feedback for any purpose, including improving the product, without compensation to you.

5.5 Copyright responsibility

You are solely responsible for ensuring that materials you upload do not infringe on third-party intellectual property rights. If you are a rights holder and believe your copyrighted material has been uploaded without authorization, contact us at legal@skoolari.com with details and we will investigate.

  • If we discontinue the Service, we will provide a prorated refund for unused time on annual plans.

6.6 Failed payments

6.7 AI usage caps

Monthly AI usage caps (assessments and auto-grades) reset on the 1st of each calendar month. Unused capacity does not roll over to the next month.

7. Data and Privacy

Your use of Skoolari is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. Key points:

  • You own your data. We process it only to provide the Service.
  • We do not sell your data or use it for advertising.
  • Student answer uploads are automatically deleted 90 days after upload.
  • Grade records are retained permanently as part of your class records.
  • You can export your data (CSV) and delete your account at any time.

When using the AI grading features, your materials and student submissions are transmitted to our AI processing provider. By using these features, you confirm you have the right to submit this data for processing and that you have complied with any applicable institutional or legal requirements.

8. Storage Limits and Data Retention

Each plan includes a storage quota for uploaded instructional materials:

  • Free: 50 MB
  • Teacher Pro: 2 GB
  • Campus: 20 GB (shared across all teachers)

Grade records, assessments, and gradebook data are never subject to storage limits — only uploaded files count toward your quota.

You will receive an email warning when you reach 80% of your storage quota. When your quota is full, you will be unable to upload new materials until you delete existing ones or upgrade your plan.

Inactive free accounts: Accounts with no login activity for 12 consecutive months will receive a warning email. If the account remains inactive for 18 months, it will be permanently deleted. Paid accounts are never auto-deleted while a subscription is active.

9. Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability

9.1 AI accuracy disclaimer

Skoolari uses AI to generate assessments and grade student work. AI-generated content may contain errors, inaccuracies, or omissions. You are solely responsible for reviewing all AI-generated assessments before distributing them to students, and for verifying AI-assigned grades before recording them as official marks. Skoolari does not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or suitability of AI-generated content for any specific educational purpose.

9.2 Service availability

We strive to keep Skoolari available but do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free access. The Service is provided "as is" and "as available." We are not liable for downtime, data loss, or service interruptions caused by factors outside our reasonable control, including third-party API outages (e.g., Google AI API unavailability).

9.3 Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Skoolari and its operators shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of, or inability to use, the Service. Our total liability to you for any claim arising from these Terms or the Service shall not exceed the amount you paid to us in the 3 months preceding the claim.

9.4 Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Skoolari and its operators from any claims, damages, or expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from: (a) your violation of these Terms; (b) your violation of any third-party rights, including intellectual property rights; (c) your use of the Service in violation of applicable law.

10. Termination

10.1 Termination by you

You may close your account at any time from your profile settings. Deletion is immediate and permanent — all your folders, materials, assessments, and grade records will be erased. Export your data before deleting.

10.2 Termination by us

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account, with or without notice, if:

  • You violate these Terms of Use
  • You engage in fraudulent, abusive, or illegal activity
  • Your account poses a security risk to other users or the platform
  • Payment obligations remain unresolved after 7 days of failed payment

In cases of clear violation, termination may be immediate without prior warning. In other cases, we will attempt to notify you before termination.

10.3 Effect of termination

Upon termination, your right to access the Service ceases immediately. Sections of these Terms that by their nature should survive (including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitations of liability, and governing law) will survive termination.

11. Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Republic of the Philippines, without regard to conflict of law principles.

Any dispute arising from these Terms or your use of Skoolari shall first be attempted to be resolved through good-faith negotiation. If the dispute cannot be resolved informally within 30 days, it shall be submitted to the appropriate courts of the Philippines.

You agree that any claim must be brought within one (1) year of the event giving rise to the claim, after which the claim is permanently barred.

12. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. For material changes, we will:

  • Update this page to reflect any changes
  • Notify all registered users by email at least 14 days before changes take effect
  • Display a notice in your Skoolari dashboard

Your continued use of Skoolari after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms. If you disagree with changes, you may close your account before the effective date.

13. Contact

For questions, concerns, or notices related to these Terms:

These Terms of Use constitute the entire agreement between you and Skoolari regarding use of the Service and supersede all prior agreements, representations, and understandings. If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in full force. These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of the Philippines.
