Broad Definitions
The herein and hereto “Terms” (Terms of Use) constitute a legal tender binding Apax Researchers (“we,” “us,” and Apax Researchers hereinafter) and you. Direct any questions, concerns, or comments about these Terms to our email: support@apaxresearchers.com.
Herein, the “User” refers to any Services’ registrants and utilizers, including but not limited to individuals accessing the Services as students, tutors, or any other. The “Tutor” is the party providing courses electronically, answers electronically, instruction electronically, and learning and tutoring electronic services via Apax Researchers' Website, products, and services. In these Terms, "Content" refers to all text, data, graphics, articles, images, photos, course materials, illustrations, flashcards, class notes, Tutor Answers, and any materials and information displayed on the Services. "Submissions" are any user-generated Content, including your posts, shares, uploads, storage, study notes, question responses, questions, and any other material you provide through the Services, whether as a service user or Tutor. Finally, "Charges" are the applicable fees and any additional costs, including taxes, the User may incur with Apax Researchers while purchasing products and using the Services.
Changes
Users should check the Terms periodically for changes and updates. Apax Researchers can implement Terms’ alterations at any time without limitation, including pricing and payment alterations. We will post the updated terms upon any modifications of these Terms and may also send a related change notice via the email addresses of registered users. It is deemed that you acknowledge and are, thus, bound by the new Terms upon your continuance of the Services' utilization after postings of the concerned changes.
Privacy Policy
The Apax Researchers Privacy Policy is the official governance framework for utilizing and collecting our Services.
Account Registration and Security
You must register for an account and establish a username and password to utilize the Services. Users can also register for the Services through Google, Facebook, LinkedIn, and other social networks of a third-party nature. Your provision of such account information and/or credentials to us will be, thus, necessary. Access through these modalities of a third-party nature provides your implicit consent for the said information transmission to our systems. In addition, Apax Researchers will subject a user who registers as a Tutor to our latest vetting and verification process. These provisions only authorize your creation of a single Apax Researchers account that is, therefore, not transferrable and devoid of any prior consent from us in formal writing.
Terms Governing the Utilization of Apax Researchers Services
We only authorize your personal consumption of the Content and Services while abiding by all applicable legal and regulatory frameworks and provisions. Except for your Submissions, these provisions do not provide for and disallow reselling and any other commercial application of any Apax Researchers content or Services. A personal license to access and utilize the Content applies to any content you access through your purchase of the Services.
Student/Tutor Interaction
The User's primary engagement with our platform is submitting questions and specifying the parameters to refine their query. They can make price offerings expressing the lowest and highest prices they associate with the value of the answer to the submitted query. They, then, have two options in selecting a Tutor to work with. They can choose Apax Researchers' auto-match function to match the question posed to a Tutor or select a Tutor to work with Apax Researchers' recommendations of Tutors to respond to the question. Users can also request specific Tutors to answer questions we will consider when making recommendations or an auto-match.
Apax Researchers recommends tutors based on price considerations and availability to meet the student's requested deadlines or due dates, which start upon matching a Tutor with the User. We charge the User a down payment upon their acceptance of a Tutor for a specific question, except in cases where the User has a credit balance account with Apax Researchers to cover the price settled for answering the question.
Before the deadline (due date), the User and accepted Tutor can utilize the Services platform’s chat functionality to implement the required or necessary communications. At Apax Researchers' discretion, included in the Services are tools to monitor the Tutor's Submissions' originality. Neither the User nor Apax Researchers is obligated to use the tools. We do not guarantee the tools and the accuracy of their results. The governing authorities, such as laws and regulations, and the practices, standards, and procedures applicable to a User's particular question may differ with the User's location. The only way for Apax Researchers to discover the information about the said practices, standards, and procedures applicable to a User's particular question and specifying parameters is typically through evaluations and/or visits in person. For instance, certain types and categories of Tutors may be educated, licensed, experienced, or employed only in their particular practice jurisdictions.
Payments
A down-payment fee for processing and answering the question is due upon its User's Submission. Such payment will be the equivalent of the hereinafter question price or the total fee of the User's accepted Tutor plus a fee. Apax Researchers implements a default service fee rate of +25% of the question price for questions and may charge a special 25% service fee rate for new users for a maximum of two (2) complete question purchases. Complete question purchases occur once we release the payment to the Tutor. The User has no more than three (3) after the answer deadline they specify to implement the termination and confirmation of the question session. On failure to do so, Apax Researchers deems the Tutor's answer to the question the required User actions completed and the question successfully processed by the lapse of the three (3) days. We then release the Tutor payment after deducting a commission fee based on Apax Researchers' tutor payment terms. The User's question Submission and Tutor selection and acceptance, or their purchase of a document or a ready-made product or solution from us, is an express agreement to Apax Researchers' permission to bill the applicable Charges to the User's provided PayPal account or credit card under the provisions of the billing terms that are applicable at the time. Apax Researchers maintains its inherent right to terminate or render inapplicable these Terms and the User's Service access if payment cannot be charged to the User's credit card account or is not received for any reason. Without exceptions other than those expressly set forth herein, all charges are non-refundable, all purchases are non-cancellable, and Apax Researchers will dispute all chargebacks for the provided services. Additionally, Apax Researchers reserves the right to ban or pursue legal action against a User who wrongfully files a chargeback.
You agree and acknowledge that Apax Researchers will automatically charge your PayPal account or credit card on record upon your election to purchase a Subscription to any of our services according to the listed prices or your acceptance of a Tutor to answer a question, as applicable.
Apax Researchers' electronic communications with a User, which the User receives as part of their purchases, are part of our relationship with the User. Electronic communication can include notices regarding transactional data and information and correspondence related to or concerning our offerings, Services, and products. Utilizing our services implies your consent to receive electronic communication from Apax Researchers. You, therefore, consent to the assertion and agree that any electronic communications’ information we convey or otherwise transmit sufficiently meets all of the criteria requisite legally or otherwise, including the criterion requiring explicitly written communications.
Policies and Procedures Applicable to Complaints by Users and Governing Suspensions
Upon a question's due date, the User is authorized to convey formal complaints regarding a Tutor, answer, or both. The User will submit the complaint after filing a complaint, upon which correspondence between the Tutor and User on the question through the Services will not be permitted. Apax Researchers has the overriding right to determine the actions to take related to the complaint, including whether to warn the Tutor, suspend the Tutor, expel the Tutor, refund the User, or refrain from any of the stated actions. A Tutor's suspension means they cannot request to work on new questions unless and until Apax Researchers exercises its sole discretion to reverse the suspension. However, the Tutor may still complete any prior or ongoing work if Apax Researchers so determines. A complaint resulting in a Tutor's ban means they will no longer work on any questions, including those accepted before the ban. Finally, Apax Researchers provides the User with a refund in the form of a credit that can apply to the User's future purchases.
Apax Researchers reserves the right to hold any moneys we receive as part of the transactions upon the User’s Terms' violations and upon Apax Researchers' belief of suspicious activity or a high level of risk associated with all transactions related to a User's account. Apax Researchers may also hold funds temporarily in a User's account to mitigate any potential liability by the coverage of such held amount in certain circumstances when the User is involved in a dispute. Apax Researchers will remove the funds from your account if you lose the dispute or lift the temporary hold upon the dispute's resolution in your favor. Learn more about Apax Researchers' policy regarding holding payments on our Tutor Payments Policy page.
