12.

Our liability to you

12.1.
Your access to Teachers’ courses via the Teach Platform is conditional on you complying with these terms. We are not liable to you for your loss of access to Teacher’s courses, community hubs or any other materials hosted on the Teach platform if we terminate your account under clause 9.
12.2.
We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors. For the avoidance of doubt, Teachers are not employees, agents or subcontractors of Teach.
12.3.
If you are a consumer then (subject to clause 12.1 and clause 12.2 above) the following terms apply to you:
12.3.1.
we are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us up to the amount set out in clause 12.3.2. If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the sales process.
12.3.2.
Our total maximum liability to you is capped at $10 (ten US dollars).
12.4.
If you are not a consumer then (subject to clause 12.1 and clause 12.2 above) the following terms apply to you:
12.4.1.
We have no liability to you for any of the following:
(a).
loss of profits;

Our total maximum liability to you is capped at $5 (five US dollars).
12.4.3.
Unless you notify us that you intend to make a claim in respect of an event within the notice period, we shall have no liability for that event. The notice period for an event shall start on the day on which you became, or ought reasonably to have become, aware of the event having occurred (as opposed to you becoming aware of you having grounds to make a claim in respect of it) and shall expire three months from that date. The notice must be in writing and must identify the event and the grounds for the claim in reasonable detail.
13.

Intellectual property rights

13.1.
All intellectual property rights in the Teach Platform are owned by us, or our licensors. You have no intellectual property rights in, or to, the Teach Platform or Teach Documentation except for the rights set out in these terms.
13.2.
All intellectual property rights in a Teacher’s course are owned by the Teacher or their licensors.
14.

How is your personal data used

14.1.
When Teach processes your personal data in order to create and manage your account on the Teach Platform, we do so as a data controller. You can read our Privacy Policy at http://teach.io/privacy for full information about how we use your personal data.
14.2.
In other circumstances we process your personal data acting as a data processor for each Teacher whose course you have subscribed to. The Teacher is the data controller in relation to your personal data. Please refer to the Teacher’s Privacy Policy (accessible from their course page for more information).
15.

Other general terms which apply

15.1.
How these terms can be transferred. We can transfer our rights and obligations under these terms to any third party. You may only transfer your rights or your obligations under these terms to another person if we agree to this in writing.
15.2.
Nobody else has rights under these terms. These terms are between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce them.
15.3.
If a court finds part of these terms illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of the clauses in these terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining clauses will remain in full force and effect.
15.4.
Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you but we continue to provide the products, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.
15.5.
Which country's laws apply to any disputes? These terms (and any non-contractual disputes or claims arising out of them) are governed by English law. You and we agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.
