Welcome to Think Lab Academy. These Terms and Conditions explain the rules that apply when you visit our website, create an account, purchase a course, attend a live class, watch a recorded class, submit an assignment, or use any other service offered by Think Lab Academy.
Please read these Terms and Conditions carefully before using our website or purchasing any course. By using the website, creating an account, or completing a purchase, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to these Terms and Conditions.
If you do not agree with these Terms and Conditions, you should not use our website or purchase our services.

1. About Think Lab Academy
Think Lab Academy is an online learning platform that provides live classes, recorded courses, educational materials, workshops, training programmes and other learning services for students, teachers, professionals and other learners.
Our courses cover subjects such as research skills and research design, statistics and data analysis, programming and software tools (for example R), artificial intelligence, academic writing, and other professional or technical topics.
In these Terms:
  • “Think Lab Academy,” “we,” “us” or “our” means the owner and operator of the Think Lab Academy website.
  • “Website” means www.thinklabacademy.org and any related learning portal, mobile application or digital platform operated by us.
  • “User,” “you” or “your” means any person who visits the website, creates an account, purchases a course or uses our services.
  • “Course” includes live classes, recorded classes, workshops, webinars, training programmes, digital materials and related educational services.

2. Eligibility to Use the Website
You must be at least 18 years old, or have reached the age of legal majority in your country, to create an account or purchase a course independently.
If you are under 18 years of age, you may use the website or purchase a course only with the permission and supervision of a parent or legal guardian. The parent or guardian will be responsible for the account, payment and use of the course.
We may ask for reasonable proof of age or of guardian consent, and we may restrict access where this is not provided.
By creating an account or making a purchase, you confirm that the information you provide is true, accurate and complete.

3. User Accounts
Some courses and services may require you to create an account.
You are responsible for:
  • Providing correct and current registration information;
  • Keeping your username, password and login details confidential;
  • Preventing other people from using your account;
  • Informing us immediately if you believe that your account has been accessed without permission; and
  • Ensuring that all activities performed through your account comply with these Terms.
An account is intended for one registered user only. You must not sell, transfer, share, rent or allow another person to use your account or course access. We may apply reasonable limits on the number of devices or simultaneous sessions used with one account.
We may temporarily block or permanently close an account if we reasonably believe that it is being shared, misused or used in violation of these Terms.

4. Course Information
We make reasonable efforts to provide clear and accurate information about each course, including its subject, instructor, price, schedule, duration, access period and delivery method.
Before purchasing a course, you should carefully review:
  • The course title and description;
  • Whether the course is live, recorded or a combination of both;
  • The class schedule;
  • Course access duration;
  • Language of instruction;
  • Technical requirements;
  • Instructor information;
  • Included learning materials; and
  • Any course-specific rules.
Course images, promotional videos, previews and descriptions are provided for general information. Minor changes may be made to improve the course or update its content.
Purchasing a course does not guarantee any particular academic result, examination score, employment, promotion, income or professional outcome.

5. Live Classes
Live classes will normally be conducted according to the schedule shown on the course page or communicated to registered learners.
We may change the date, time, instructor or delivery platform of a live class where reasonably necessary. We will try to provide advance notice through the website, email, SMS, telephone or other available communication method.
Live classes may be delivered through third-party tools such as video-conferencing or messaging platforms. You may need to accept the relevant third party’s own terms in order to join a class.
Live classes may be recorded for teaching, quality and record-keeping purposes. By joining a live class you accept that your display name, voice, camera image, chat messages or questions may be captured in the recording and may be shared with other learners of the same course or batch. Please inform us before the class if you do not wish to appear on camera.
A learner who misses a live class is not automatically entitled to:
  • A refund;
  • A private replacement class;
  • A change to another batch; or
  • An extension of course access.
Where available, we may provide a recording of a missed live class. However, we do not guarantee that every live class will be recorded or made available afterwards.
A transfer to another batch, a deferral or an extension may be allowed at our discretion, and a reasonable administrative charge may apply.
Learners must behave respectfully during live classes. Harassment, abusive language, disruption, unauthorized promotion, discrimination or inappropriate conduct may result in removal from the class without a refund.

6. Recorded Courses
Recorded courses may be available for a fixed period, for the lifetime of the course, or for another access period stated on the course page.
“Lifetime access,” where offered, means access for as long as the course remains available on the Think Lab Academy platform. It does not mean the lifetime of the learner and does not guarantee that the course will remain available permanently.
Recorded lessons are provided through personal, limited and non-transferable access. Users are not allowed to download, record, copy or redistribute lessons unless a download option or written permission is specifically provided by us.

7. Prices and Payments
Course prices will be displayed on the website or communicated through our authorized sales channels.
Prices may be shown in Bangladeshi Taka or another stated currency. Applicable taxes, transaction fees or payment charges may be added where required.
Payments may be accepted through mobile financial services, cards, banks, payment gateways or other payment methods approved by us. Payments are processed by third-party payment providers, and their own terms may also apply to the transaction.
You are responsible for:
  • Selecting the correct course;
  • Providing accurate payment information;
  • Paying the full amount shown at checkout; and
  • Keeping your payment confirmation or transaction reference.
A course purchase is confirmed only after we successfully receive or verify the payment.
We may change course prices at any time. A price change will not affect a purchase that has already been successfully completed.
Discounts, promotional codes, scholarships and special offers may be subject to additional conditions and may be changed or withdrawn at any time before purchase.
Where a course is offered in instalments, access may be limited or suspended until the outstanding instalments are paid.

8. Subscriptions and Memberships
Where we offer a subscription or membership plan, the following also applies:
  • The subscription fee recurs for each billing period until you cancel;
  • You authorize us and our payment provider to charge the recurring fee unless and until you cancel;
  • You may cancel at any time through your account or by contacting us at support@thinklabacademy.org;
  • Unless otherwise stated, cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing cycle; and
  • No partial refund is provided for the unused part of a billing period.
Access to subscription content ends when the subscription ends.

9. No-Refund Policy
All course purchases are final. Once payment has been completed, no refund, exchange, cancellation or transfer will normally be provided.
This no-refund policy applies where:
  • You change your mind after purchasing;
  • You purchase the wrong course;
  • You fail to attend a live class;
  • You do not complete the course;
  • You do not use your course access;
  • Your personal schedule changes;
  • You do not achieve your expected result;
  • Your internet connection or device does not work properly;
  • You lose access because you violated these Terms; or
  • You are dissatisfied for a reason that was clearly disclosed in the course description before purchase.
Before making payment, you are responsible for checking the course description, instructor, schedule, price, access period, language and technical requirements.
However, Think Lab Academy may provide a refund or another reasonable solution where:
  • The same payment was charged more than once because of a verified technical error;
  • Think Lab Academy cancels a paid course and does not provide a suitable replacement;
  • We are permanently unable to provide the purchased course;
  • A payment was taken but course access was not provided due to an error caused by us and we cannot correct the problem within a reasonable period; or
  • A refund is required under applicable law.
Where we clearly publish a specific refund or cancellation window for an individual course, subscription or programme, that published condition will apply to that purchase instead of this general no-refund rule.
A refund request must be submitted to support@thinklabacademy.org with the learner’s name, registered phone number, course name, payment date, transaction reference and proof of payment if requested.
We review each refund request individually and may ask for additional information to verify eligibility. Any approved refund will normally be returned through the original payment method or another method selected by us, and will usually be processed within 14 business days. The time taken for the money to reach you also depends on your payment provider. Payment-gateway fees, bank charges or transaction costs may be deducted where legally permitted.
Nothing in this section removes any right that cannot legally be excluded under the laws of Bangladesh, and where the law gives you a right to a refund, repair, replacement or cancellation, that legal right will apply.

10. Chargebacks and Payment Disputes
If you believe a charge was made in error, please contact us first at support@thinklabacademy.org so that we can try to resolve the matter.
Raising a chargeback or payment dispute without first contacting us, or making an improper or fraudulent chargeback, may result in suspension or termination of your account and course access. We may also recover reasonable costs and charges caused by such a dispute where legally permitted.

11. Course Access and Technical Requirements
You are responsible for having:
  • A compatible mobile phone, computer or tablet;
  • A reliable internet connection;
  • Updated software or browser;
  • Required applications for live classes; and
  • Sufficient data, storage and audio or video facilities.
Some courses may require specific software (for example R, RStudio or other tools). Where such software is provided by a third party, you are responsible for installing it and complying with its own licence terms.
We are not responsible for service interruptions caused by your device, internet provider, electricity supply, browser, third-party application or local network.
We may perform maintenance, updates or security work that temporarily affects access to the website. We will try to restore access within a reasonable time.

12. Intellectual Property Rights
All content available through Think Lab Academy is owned by or licensed to Think Lab Academy or the relevant instructor or content owner, and is protected by intellectual property laws.
Protected content may include:
  • Recorded videos;

  • Audio files;
  • Study materials; and
  • Downloadable documents.
When you purchase a course, you receive a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable right to access the course for your own educational use.
Purchasing a course does not transfer ownership of the course content to you.
You must not:
  • Copy or reproduce course content;
  • Record live or recorded classes without permission;
  • Share videos, passwords or login details;
  • Upload course materials to another website, group, drive or social-media platform;
  • Sell, rent or distribute course content;
  • Modify, adapt or translate course content for commercial use;
  • Remove watermarks, copyright notices or ownership information;
  • Use course content to create a competing course or for commercial training without our written permission; or
  • Use screen-recording or similar technology to capture protected lessons.
Unauthorized use may result in immediate account termination and legal action.

13. Acceptable Use
You agree to use the platform respectfully and lawfully. You agree not to use the website or services to:

  • Conduct any activity that may damage Think Lab Academy’s reputation, systems or users.
We may remove content, restrict access, suspend accounts or report unlawful conduct to the appropriate authority where necessary.

14. User-Submitted Content
Users may sometimes submit assignments, comments, reviews, questions, images, documents, code or other materials.
You remain the owner of the content you submit, and you remain responsible for it. You confirm that:
  • It belongs to you or you have permission to use it;
  • It does not violate another person’s rights;
  • It is not unlawful, misleading, defamatory or offensive; and
  • It does not contain viruses or harmful material.
You give Think Lab Academy permission to store, process, display and share submitted content as reasonably necessary to provide the course, assess your work, give feedback and operate the platform.
We may remove user-submitted content that violates these Terms.

15. Academic Integrity
Learning with Think Lab Academy requires honest work. You must not:
  • Submit work that is not your own or that is copied without acknowledgement;
  • Plagiarise published material, another learner’s work or online sources;
  • Ask or allow another person to attend a class or sit an assessment in your place;
  • Share or obtain assessment questions or answers without permission;
  • Falsify data, results or references in an assignment or project; or
  • Use artificial-intelligence or automated tools where the course clearly states that they are not permitted.
Where academic misconduct is found, we may cancel the affected mark, refuse or withdraw a certificate, require the work to be resubmitted, suspend or terminate the account, and refuse a refund.

16. Instructors and Educational Information
Our instructors may include teachers, trainers, specialists and professionals from different fields.
Views expressed by an instructor are the instructor’s own views and do not necessarily represent the official views of Think Lab Academy.
Course materials are provided for general educational and informational purposes only. They do not constitute legal, financial, tax, medical, psychological, licensing or other regulated professional advice, unless the course is specifically delivered as an authorized professional service. You are responsible for how you use the information provided.
Users should obtain advice from an appropriately qualified professional before making important decisions based on course content.

17. Instructors and Content Partners
If you join Think Lab Academy as an instructor, teacher, trainer or content partner, these Terms apply to you in addition to any separate instructor, revenue-share or engagement agreement.
As an instructor you confirm that:
  • You own the material you upload or have the necessary rights and permissions to use it;
  • You will not upload third-party copyrighted material, exam papers, books or datasets without permission;
  • The information you provide about your qualifications and experience is accurate;
  • You will deliver classes according to the agreed schedule and syllabus; and
  • You will treat learners and staff respectfully and keep learner information confidential.
You grant Think Lab Academy a licence to host, deliver, promote and make available your course content on the platform for as long as the course remains published, and for learners who have already purchased access.
Commission, revenue share and payouts are paid on the terms and schedule agreed with you and shown in your instructor account. We may withhold or adjust a payout where a payment is reversed, refunded, disputed or found to be fraudulent, or where a course was delivered in breach of these Terms.

18. Assessments and Certificates
Some courses may include assignments, tests, attendance requirements or certificates.
A certificate may be issued only when the learner satisfies the stated requirements. These may include:
  • Completing a required percentage of lessons;
  • Attending live classes;
  • Submitting assignments;
  • Passing an assessment; or
  • Paying all applicable fees.
Unless clearly stated otherwise, a Think Lab Academy certificate is a certificate of participation or course completion. It confirms only that you completed the relevant course requirements on our platform. It is not necessarily an academic degree, government qualification, professional licence or guarantee of employment.
We do not guarantee:
  • Academic admission;
  • Publication success;
  • Employment;
  • Promotion;
  • Grants or funding;
  • Professional certification or licensing; or
  • Any specific research or career outcome.
Your results depend on many factors beyond our control, including your own effort, background and application of the material.
We may refuse or cancel a certificate obtained through cheating, impersonation, account sharing, false information or other misconduct.

19. Third-Party Services
The website may use third-party services, including payment gateways, video-conferencing tools, hosting providers, messaging services, artificial-intelligence tools, coding or notebook platforms, community tools and external links.
These third parties may have their own terms and privacy policies. Think Lab Academy is not responsible for a third party’s independent service, content, security, availability or conduct.
A link to an external website does not mean that we approve or guarantee everything available on that website.

20. Privacy and Personal Information
We may collect and use personal information such as your name, phone number, email address, billing address, payment information processed by our payment provider, course activity, attendance and communications.
We use this information to:
  • Create and manage accounts;
  • Process payments;
  • Provide course access;
  • Communicate class information;
  • Offer customer support;
  • Improve our services;
  • Prevent fraud and misuse; and
  • Comply with legal obligations.
Our handling of personal information is also governed by our Privacy Policy. Users should read the Privacy Policy before creating an account or making a purchase.
You are responsible for ensuring that the information you provide is accurate and that you have permission to provide information relating to another person, including where you register on behalf of a learner under 18.

21. Marketing Communications
By providing your contact information, you agree that we may send necessary service communications concerning your account, payment, classes, schedules and course access.
With your consent, we may also send promotional information about courses, offers and events. You may request to stop receiving optional marketing communications, but you may still receive essential account and service messages.

22. Support, Notices and Communication
You can contact us for support by email at support@thinklabacademy.org or through the contact details published on the website. We aim to reply within a reasonable time on working days.
We will normally communicate with you using the email address, phone number or messaging number registered with your account. A notice sent to your registered contact details is treated as received by you, so please keep them up to date.

23. Complaints
If you are unhappy with a class, an instructor, a payment or any other part of our service, please contact us at support@thinklabacademy.org with your name, registered phone number, course name and a description of the problem.
We will look into the matter and try to respond with a reasonable solution. Complaints about an instructor, harassment or academic misconduct will be treated confidentially so far as reasonably possible.

24. Suspension and Termination
We may suspend or terminate your account or course access if you:
  • Violate these Terms;
  • Share your account or course materials;
  • Make a fraudulent, reversed or disputed payment;
  • Abuse an instructor, employee or learner;
  • Attempt to damage the platform;
  • Use false information;
  • Commit academic misconduct; or
  • Engage in unlawful activity.
We may also suspend, withdraw or restrict access to all or part of the platform for maintenance, updates, security or other operational reasons.
Where reasonably possible, we may provide a warning before suspension. However, serious violations may result in immediate termination.
Upon termination, your right to use the platform ends immediately. A user whose access is terminated because of misconduct will not normally receive a refund.
You may stop using the website at any time, but stopping use does not create a right to a refund.

25. Availability and Changes to Services
We aim to provide reliable services but cannot guarantee that the website or every course will always be available without interruption, delay or error.
We may:
  • Update course content;
  • Replace an instructor;
  • Change a class schedule;
  • Correct errors;
  • Modify website features;
  • Remove outdated materials; or
  • Discontinue a course or service.
We do not guarantee that any particular course will always remain available.
Where a significant change affects a paid course, we will try to offer a reasonable alternative, extended access, replacement course or other appropriate solution.

26. Disclaimer of Warranties
The website and all courses, content and services are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we make no warranties, express or implied, and we do not guarantee that:
  • The website will always operate without interruption;

  • Every course will meet every learner’s personal expectation or be fit for a particular purpose;
  • Course content will remain unchanged;
  • A learner will pass an examination;
  • A learner will obtain employment, promotion or income; or
  • Every external service will remain available, secure or free from harmful components.
Nothing in these Terms excludes any guarantee or responsibility that cannot legally be excluded.

27. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Think Lab Academy and its owners, employees, instructors, contractors, affiliates and partners will not be responsible for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive loss arising from the use of the website or a course.
This may include loss of income, business opportunity, data, academic opportunity or expected results.
Where Think Lab Academy is legally responsible for a claim relating to a purchased course, our total financial responsibility will normally be limited to the amount paid by the user for that specific course or service.
This limitation does not apply where liability cannot legally be limited or excluded.

28. Indemnity
You agree to compensate and hold harmless Think Lab Academy, its affiliates, staff, instructors and service providers for reasonable losses, claims, costs or expenses resulting from:
  • Your unlawful use or misuse of the website;
  • Your infringement of intellectual-property rights;
  • Your unauthorized sharing or sale of course content;
  • Your violation of these Terms or of any law or third-party right;
  • Content you submit; or
  • Your harmful conduct toward another user, instructor or third party.
This section applies only to the extent permitted by law.

29. Events Beyond Our Control
We will not be responsible for delays or failures caused by events reasonably beyond our control.
These may include:

  • Flood, fire or severe weather;
  • Epidemic or public emergency;
  • Political unrest;
  • Government restrictions;
  • Internet or telecommunications failure;
  • Power failure;
  • Cyberattack;
  • Failure of a third-party platform; or
  • Other force majeure events.
We will make reasonable efforts to resume affected services or provide an alternative arrangement.

30. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms and Conditions to reflect changes in our services, business practices, technology or legal requirements.
The latest version will be published on this page with a revised “Last updated” date.
Changes will normally apply from the date they are published. Significant changes affecting existing paid services may also be communicated through email, SMS, account notification or another reasonable method.
Continuing to use the website after an updated version becomes effective means that you accept the updated Terms.

31. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
These Terms and Conditions are governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of Bangladesh.
If a dispute arises, you should first contact Think Lab Academy at support@thinklabacademy.org or on our WhatsApp number +8801348116869. Both parties should try to resolve the matter through good-faith discussion.
If the dispute cannot be resolved informally, it may be submitted to the courts or other competent authorities of Bangladesh in accordance with applicable law.
Nothing in these Terms prevents a consumer from exercising any legal right or submitting a complaint to an appropriate consumer-protection or regulatory authority.

32. Severability
If any part of these Terms is found to be unlawful, invalid or unenforceable, that part will be limited or removed only to the extent necessary.
The remaining sections will continue to apply.

33. No Waiver
If we do not immediately enforce a provision of these Terms, this does not mean that we have waived our right to enforce it later.

34. Transfer of Rights
You may not transfer your account or your rights under these Terms to another person without our written permission.
We may transfer our rights and obligations under these Terms to another business, for example as part of a reorganisation or sale. Your rights under these Terms will not be reduced by such a transfer.

35. Language
These Terms and Conditions are written in English. Any translation is provided for convenience only, and the English version will apply if there is a difference in meaning.

36. Entire Agreement
These Terms and Conditions, together with our Privacy Policy and any course-specific conditions, form the agreement between you and Think Lab Academy regarding use of the website and services.
