By purchasing or accessing our products, you agree to these Terms.

1. Our Products and Services

We offer digital educational products and services at the following tiers:

When you purchase a product:

• We create an account for you using the email address you provided at checkout
• You receive a "Set Your Password" email to activate your account
• You are responsible for keeping your login credentials secure
• One account per person. Do not share your login with others.

Lifetime access (for one-time purchases) means access for as long as we operate the course platform at thefourlanguages.com. If we ever discontinue the platform, we will provide at least 90 days notice and ensure you can download your materials.

3. What You Can and Cannot Do

You CAN:

• Access and use the course content for your own personal and professional development
