Privacy Policy I Terms of Use
Terms of Use
These Terms of Use set forth the terms and conditions of an agreement (this "agreement") between you (1) as an individual that has purchased access to products and services available through CLEO Education, Inc. (collectively the "services"), (2) on behalf of an institution or other entity that has purchased access to the services, or (3) as a user of the services either with access purchased by you or another individual or available to you in any other capacity. Purchase of access to use the services, or use of the services by other means, constitutes your agreement with these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, or do not intend to comply, with these Terms of Use, you should not purchase access to or otherwise use the services.
Scope of This Agreement
In this agreement, "you" or "your" means any individual or entity, in one or more capacities described above, subscribing to the services (a "subscriber") or using the services (a "user"). Unless otherwise stated, "CLEO," “CLEO Education”, "we," "us," or "our" means CLEO Education, Inc.
This agreement, along with any other written agreements that you have entered into with CLEO Education with respect to the services and your authorized access, constitutes the entire understanding between you and CLEO Education with respect to the subject matter hereof. All other prior representations, statements, and undertakings, whether oral or written, are hereby expressly superseded and canceled.
This agreement incorporates by reference the CLEO Education Privacy Policy, which is available for your review at cleoedu.com (our "site"). You should read and understand the provisions of our Privacy Policy before you become a subscriber to, or user of, the services.
We may amend this agreement from time to time by posting the amended terms on our site. Except as stated below, all amended terms shall be effective 30 days after they are initially posted on our site, and when they become effective, they will be incorporated into the Terms of Use on this page.
PLEASE READ THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT CAREFULLY BEFORE USING OUR SERVICES.
Certain Requirements
In order to obtain access to, or to use, CLEO Education services, you must:
Be an individual at least 13 years of age or older, and
Have the power and authority to enter into binding agreements with us without restriction under applicable law or be using the services as purchased by an individual or entity with such power and authority.
You must not obtain access to, or use, CLEO Education services if you are doing so for the benefit of a competitor.
Finally, in accordance with the current United States export restrictions, the CLEO Education software may be used by individuals and entities throughout the world except those in embargoed countries and regions. If you reside in such a country or region, you may not purchase access to, or use, the CLEO Education software.
Grant of License
In consideration of, and subject to, payment of the appropriate access fee for the purchased services, and your agreement to, and compliance with, the terms and conditions in this agreement, CLEO Education grants to you a non-exclusive, non-sub-licensable, non-transferable license and right to use and access the licensed materials from multiple devices and locations with nonconcurrent log-on access. Downloadable documents shall only be used by authorized users.
Software Use
The term "software" includes all CLEO Education products, features, applications, services, technologies, and software.
The content presented in any self-assessment examination serves as an educational tool for use by students and health care providers. Any score that may be calculated by CLEO Education is based on its own proprietary algorithm. No score is intended to predict your score on any actual exam, but it is designed for instructional purposes to help you evaluate your level of preparedness and to assist you in assessing your relative strengths and weaknesses in the various subject matter.
Access via Mobile Devices
Access to CLEO Education materials via certain mobile devices (e.g., smartphones, tablet computers) is provided as an additional feature on some of our services, but it is not intended to be a replacement for computer access. CLEO Education, at its sole discretion, may choose to discontinue offering access via any or all mobile devices at any time with or without notice, reason, or explanation.
You agree that CLEO Education shall not be held liable for any damage to your mobile devices or operating systems, or any data loss resulting from the direct or indirect installation or use of the CLEO Education software.
No refund or cancellation will be honored due to your inability to install or use the CLEO Education software on any mobile device.
An Internet connection is required while the CLEO Education software is in use, and a Wi-Fi Internet connection with an unlimited data plan is highly recommended (both unlimited upload and unlimited download). Use of a fixed data plan, limited data plan, or any other pay-per-use data plan for an Internet connection is not recommended. If you use a fixed, limited, or pay-per-use data plan, you will be solely responsible for any data charges incurred. You agree that CLEO Education shall not be held liable for any data charges, overage fees, or any other miscellaneous fees or costs that result, directly or indirectly, from using the CLEO Education software on your devices, including in the event of CLEO Education software malfunction.
Access to Content
You are allowed to use the licensed materials for the specific materials to which you have purchased access to. Each material has its own access fees and duration. You are not allowed to access the content of materials for which you have not purchased access (e.g., an individual with access as a student may not have access to the same materials as a student accessing content through an institutional agreement).
Reasonable Use
CLEO Education products are intended for individual self-study and exam preparation. Access to the services and materials is purchased. Usage of the CLEO Education products in a manner that exceeds normal product usage is not permitted. Normal product usage does not include usage which is suspected to be shared between multiple users on the same device or network. Access utilization that is indicative of, or arising from, impermissible business, multiple users, community use, or fraudulent use may result in suspension or termination of the access in question. CLEO Education may contact any user at any time to request clarification of a usage pattern that is suspected of unreasonable use.
Orders
Most of the information you enter at checkout is used solely to process your order. When you provide your card details, they are encrypted in your browser and sent directly to Stripe, our PCI-compliant payment processor. CLEO’s servers never see or store your full card number or CVC. Stripe transmits the necessary payment information to the card networks and issuing bank to obtain authorization. A temporary authorization (a “pending amount”) may appear on your statement until the charge is captured or released. We charge your card only after a payment is successfully authorized and captured, then display an on-screen confirmation and email you a receipt at your registered address. You can also log in to your CLEO account to download past receipts. We do not share your personal or financial information with third parties except as described in this Privacy Policy. You will be asked to provide financial information such as your credit/debit card number, expiration date, CVV2 code, payee name, and billing address. This information is used for billing purposes and to fulfill your order. To properly process your credit/debit card information, we must share your personal and financial information with the merchant bank for authorization and approval. This process is protected by an enhanced security system. We do not share your personal and financial information with any other third parties except those specified in our Privacy Policy.
Refunds
Except as otherwise provided in this agreement or at the sole discretion of CLEO Education, no refunds, cancellations, or changes to access will be allowed. CLEO Education reserves the right to refuse a refund if the subscriber or user is found to be in violation of this agreement or acting against CLEO Education's interest.
Member Account/Password and Security
You must complete CLEO Education's registration process in order to subscribe to and use the services by providing us with current, complete, and accurate information as prompted by the applicable registration form. You are responsible for the accuracy of the data provided and may update your profile data to reflect the most accurate current information. You will also choose a password. You are entirely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and account and for any and all activities that occur under your account. You agree to notify CLEO Education immediately of any unauthorized use of your account or any other breach of security. CLEO Education shall not be liable for any loss that you may incur as a result of someone else using your password or account, either with or without your knowledge. However, you could be held liable for losses incurred by CLEO Education or another party due to someone else using your account or password.

Access Term
You have the right to use and access the licensed materials for the courses and materials you have purchased for the duration of your access period selected at checkout, except during any scheduled maintenance downtime. The licensed materials will be provided as described in the respective product descriptions and may change, at CLEO Education’s sole discretion, during the course of your access period. Your access period begins immediately upon activation. Access periods cannot be paused or suspended, nor can they be reactivated once they expire. You must use the course material within the access period, and no complimentary extensions are granted for unused time.
When your access period ends, your right to use and access the licensed materials will expire automatically. Continued access requires a new purchase under CLEO Education’s then current terms and pricing. A new purchase provides a fresh access period starting on the date of activation and applies only to the course(s) purchased. This Agreement – and your right to use the licensed materials – will also terminated at CLEO Educations’ sole discretion if you fail to comply with any of its terms and conditions.
