C. Code of Conduct

We have to set up some ground rules. Honestly, most of what we cover here should go without saying. However, it’s better to be upfront about things, rather than just assume everyone knows how they are expected to conduct themselves on our Platform.

  1. No Illegal Activity: This is about as simple as it gets. Do not use the Skills ReNEW Platform for any illegal activity. Period. You are not allowed to use our Platform to engage in any kind of conduct that violates any applicable federal, state, local, or international law or regulation (including, without limitation, any laws regarding the export of data or software to and from the US or other countries).

You may not use the Skills ReNEW Platform to engage in any activities that will result in sending spam to anyone on the Skills ReNEW Platform, including Skills ReNEW (and its employees), Creators, and Learners.

  6. No Exploitation: You will not use the Skills ReNEW Platform to try to gather personal information on anyone outside of the limited permissible uses for offering or accessing Content.

VII. Payments

A. Gateway Options

Skills ReNEW operates two different types of payment options for Creators who use our Platform: Skills ReNEW Gateways and Custom Gateways. Your use of either type of gateway is covered by the terms of this section.

B. Skills ReNEW Native Gateways

For the avoidance of doubt, the term Skills ReNEW Native Gateways is a reference to both Skills ReNEW Payments and the Monthly Payments Gateway

1) Appointment of Skills ReNEW as a Limited Payment Collection Agent for Skills ReNEW Native Gateways: Each Creator collecting payment for services provided on the Skills ReNEW platform via Skills ReNEW Native Gateways hereby appoints Skills ReNEW as the Creator’s payment collection agent solely for the limited purpose of accepting funds from Learners purchasing such services.

a) Each Creator agrees that payment made by a Learner through the Skills ReNEW Native Gateways shall be considered the same as a payment made directly to the Creator, and the Creator will provide the purchased services to the Learner in the agreed manner as if the Creator has received the payment directly from the Learner. Each Creator agrees that Skills ReNEW may refund the Learner in accordance with the Terms. Each Creator understands that Skills ReNEW’s obligation to pay the Creator is subject to and conditional upon successful receipt of the associated payments from Learners. Skills ReNEW guarantees payments to Creators only for such amounts that have been successfully received by Skills ReNEW from Learners in accordance with these Terms. In accepting appointment as the limited payment collection agent of the Creator, Skills ReNEW assumes no liability for any acts or omissions of the Creator.

b) Each Learner acknowledges and agrees that Skills ReNEW acts as the Creator’s payment collection agent for the limited purpose of accepting payments from you on behalf of the Creator. Upon payment of the funds to Skills ReNEW, the Learner’s payment obligation to the Creator for the agreed amount is extinguished, and Skills ReNEW is responsible for remitting the funds to the Creator deducting Skills ReNEW services charges including remittance or transfer fee in the manner described in these Terms, which constitute Skills ReNEW’s agreement with the Learner. In the event that Skills ReNEW does not remit any such amounts once successfully received from the Learner, the Creator will have recourse only against Skills ReNEW and not the Learner directly.

2) Skills ReNEW Payments: The Skills ReNEW Payments gateway allows Creators to process credit or debit card transactions and facilitates faster payout processes. Skills ReNEW Payments is available to some Creators, based on location. For a list of eligible locations, please see the Skills ReNEW website which is updated on an on-going basis.

a) Creators have the option to set up Skills ReNEW Payments from their school’s Admin page. By setting up Skills ReNEW Payments, You agree to the terms that appear in this Agreement and/or on the Skills ReNEW Platform regarding the Skills ReNEW Payments Gateway.

b) Third Party Agreement: In setting up Skills ReNEW Payments, You may be instructed to agree to terms of service offered by Stripe. Stripe is an independent party from Skills ReNEW and Skills ReNEW is not responsible for the contents of their terms of service. Should Stripe’s terms of service differ from Skills ReNEW’s terms, such differences shall not modify this Agreement in any manner.

c) By using Skills ReNEW Payments You agree that Skills ReNEW may place a portion of Your school sales in reserve for a period of time to cover losses, chargebacks, refunds, etc. The current reserve period and amount regarding Skills ReNEW Payments follow the payment gateway providers terms of use. The amount of reserves and the length of time in which they are held are subject to change at Skills ReNEW’s or payment gateway providers sole discretion. Should the reserve period or the amount withheld change, Skills ReNEW will make reasonable efforts to update the FAQ section of the website to communicate these changes.

d) Fees for Skills ReNEW Payments may be found on the Skills ReNEW FAQ All Skills ReNEW Payment gateway fees will be deducted before the funds are sent to the Creator. The fees associated with Skills ReNEW Payments are subject to change, in Skills ReNEW’s sole discretion. By using Skills ReNEW Payments, You agree to the fees as set by Skills ReNEW.

3) Custom Payments Gateway: Creators on the Professional, Business, and Enterprise plans may choose to set up a Custom Payment Gateway (CPG) to process Learner transactions. These transactions, which are made through a third-party payment gateway, are outside of the scope of your relationship with Skills ReNEW. You agree that Your CPG service is not a part of the Skills ReNEW Services. Pay-outs are distributed according to the third-party payment service’s policies and procedures, and are not subject to Skills ReNEW’s Cancellation & Refund policy or payment hold.

a) Transactions made through CPG are not subject to Skills ReNEW’s transaction fees.

b) You acknowledge that Skills ReNEW does not control any payment processing fees that may be assessed through CPG. Additionally, while Skills ReNEW may record the amounts that you owe to authors and affiliates in the transaction report, Skills ReNEW does not have the access or ability to make deductions from transaction fees processed through third-party payment gateways to pay your authors or affiliates. Creators are responsible for making payments to authors and affiliates on their own.

c) By using CPG, Skills ReNEW does not have any responsibility to pay, remit, or otherwise send to any relevant tax authorities, taxes owed, including sales taxes, on Content you sell through CPG processing.

C. Chargebacks

(3) When sales of Creator Content are processed through CPG, Skills ReNEW is not taking part in the supply of the Creator Content. Content is and remains the Creator’s property.
