Terms of Use

1. Who may agree to these Terms

These Terms constitute an agreement between you and Crown Oak Learning LLC, the creator and operator of Kids Business Adventure Academy. Kids Business Adventure Academy is an educational program created and operated by Crown Oak Learning LLC. It is not a separate company.

Only an adult of at least 18 years who is a parent or legal guardian may create an account, buy a membership, or agree to these Terms. A child may not contract with us, accept these Terms, authorize a payment, manage a subscription, or access payment information.

If we learn that an account was created by a child rather than by a parent or guardian, we will close it and delete the information it holds.

2. Accounts

A free account gives a verified parent access to Worlds 1 and 2 and the separate World 7 preview. A family membership adds the rest of the course, child profiles, saved progress, and the ability to contribute to the Community Hall.

You are responsible for keeping your password private and for what happens under your account. Tell us promptly if you think someone else has used it.

3. Child profiles

Child profiles belong to your parent account. You choose the nickname or first name, the age range, and the avatar. You decide whether each child may contribute to the Community Hall.

You may review, correct, or delete a child profile at any time from your parent account. A child profile is not an independent account and cannot exist without a parent account.

4. The Community Hall

The Community Hall is visible only to signed-in academy families. It is not public and is not indexed by search engines.

A signed-in family without a membership may read it. A family with a current membership may also post, comment, and react.

There is no private messaging of any kind between any two people on this service.

Content that shares contact details, personal locations, or unsafe material is not permitted. We may hide it, remove it, restrict a profile, or close an account.

5. Your content stays yours

You and your child keep ownership of everything you create: business ideas, names, artwork, written work, and projects. We claim no ownership of any of it.

You grant us only the limited permission we need to store it, display it inside the Community Hall to authorized families, moderate it, back it up, and operate and protect the service. That permission ends when the content is deleted, except for backups that age out on their normal cycle.

6. Our content

The lessons, videos, artwork, characters, worlds, music, and software are owned by Crown Oak Learning LLC or its licensors. You may use them for your own family's learning. You may not copy, resell, redistribute, or publicly perform them.

7. Payment, renewal and cancellation

Membership is billed in advance and renews automatically until you cancel. The price, the interval, the amount charged today, and the renewal terms are disclosed before you authorize payment, and are set out in the Subscription, Cancellation and Refund Terms, which form part of this agreement.

You can cancel online at any time from your parent account.

8. Educational purpose, and what we do not promise

This is educational content for young people. It is not individualized legal, tax, accounting, investment, or financial advice, and it is not a substitute for advice from a qualified professional.

We do not promise any sale, any income, any profit, or any business outcome. Results depend on the individual. Nothing in the program guarantees scholarship eligibility, approval, or reimbursement by any scholarship organization.

9. Acceptable use

Do not attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the service, interfere with it, scrape it, or use it to harm or contact a child. Do not use it to break the law.

10. Suspension and termination

We may suspend or close an account that breaks these Terms or that puts a child at risk. Where it is safe and lawful to do so, we will tell you why.

You may close your account at any time by emailing crownoaklearning@gmail.com from the address on the account. We will confirm it is you before acting.

11. Disclaimers

The service is provided as is and as available, to the fullest extent the law allows. We do not warrant that it will be uninterrupted or error free.

12. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, our total liability arising out of or relating to the service is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the event giving rise to the claim, or five hundred US dollars.

Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited, including liability for fraud, for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or any right you have as a consumer under the law of your own state.

13. Third parties

We use service providers to host the site, process payments, and send email. We are responsible for choosing them carefully. We are not responsible for websites we link to that we do not operate.

14. Governing law and venue

Florida law governs these Terms. The state and federal courts serving Lee County, Florida are the venue for disputes, without limiting any right you have to bring a claim where you live or to use a small claims court.

These Terms do not include an arbitration clause, a jury waiver, or a class action waiver.

15. Changes

We will tell you before a material change takes effect. Where the law requires it, we will ask you to accept the new version before you continue.

16. If the business changes hands

If Crown Oak Learning LLC is sold, merged, or transfers this program to another operator, your family's information may transfer with it so the service can continue. We will tell you before that happens, and the new operator must honour the commitments in these Terms and in our privacy notices, or you may close your account and request deletion first.

We will not transfer a child's information to an operator that will not accept those commitments.

17. Severability and contact

If any part of these Terms is unenforceable, the rest continues to apply.
