For orders of multiple licenses or company-wide deployments, a customized proposal can be prepared on request at contact@polymathinstitute.africa.
4. Prices
Prices are indicated in euros. The applicable VAT regime is indicated on each course page, in the cart, and on the invoice.
Polymath Institute reserves the right to change its prices at any time; the course is invoiced at the price in effect when the order is placed.
5. Orders
The customer selects one or more courses, checks the contents of the cart, enters their information, accepts these Terms, and then confirms payment. The order is binding once payment is confirmed.
A confirmation e-mail summarizing the order is sent to the address provided by the customer.
6. Payment

After payment is confirmed, the customer receives their access to the online learning platform by e-mail. Login credentials are personal and may not be shared.
Access requires an internet connection and an up-to-date browser. The access period is indicated on each course page.
In the event of access difficulties, the customer contacts Polymath Institute at contact@polymathinstitute.africa; a solution will be provided as quickly as possible.
8. Right of withdrawal (consumers)
Consumers have fourteen days from the date of the order to exercise their right of withdrawal, without having to give a reason, by writing to contact@polymathinstitute.africa. They are then refunded within fourteen days, using the same payment method.
In accordance with Article L221-28, 13° of the French Consumer Code, the right of withdrawal can no longer be exercised once access to the course (digital content) has begun before the end of this period, with the consumer’s prior express consent and acknowledgment that they thereby lose their right of withdrawal. This consent is collected when the order is placed.
Professional customers do not benefit from the right of withdrawal.

The course materials (videos, texts, exercises, resources) are protected by copyright and belong to Polymath Institute or its partners, including PINKTUM. The customer is granted a personal, non-transferable right of use for the duration of the access period. Any reproduction, distribution, or resale is prohibited.
11. Liability
Polymath Institute undertakes to use all reasonable means to ensure access to the courses. It cannot be held liable for interruptions due to maintenance, internet network failure, or force majeure.
With respect to professional customers, Polymath Institute’s liability is limited to the amount of the order concerned.
12. Personal data
