Intellectual property
CertStudy owns or licenses all platform content, including quiz questions, flashcard decks, lesson materials, UI design, and software code.
You retain ownership of your study data, including quiz results, flashcard progress, study plans, and any notes or data you create within the platform.
Certification names, logos, and exam objectives referenced on CertStudy are trademarks of their respective owners (CompTIA, Amazon Web Services, The Linux Foundation, Puppet/Perforce). CertStudy is not affiliated with or endorsed by these organizations.
Service availability
CertStudy is provided on a best-effort basis. We aim for high availability but do not guarantee any specific uptime percentage or SLA.
The service may be temporarily unavailable for maintenance, updates, or circumstances beyond our control. We will make reasonable efforts to provide notice for planned downtime.
AI features
The AI Tutor and AI Study Planner features use artificial intelligence (powered by Anthropic) to generate educational content, practice questions, explanations, and study schedules.
AI-generated responses are educational aids and should not be treated as professional advice, official certification material, or guaranteed exam preparation. AI responses may occasionally contain errors or inaccuracies.
Your study data is not used to train AI models. AI interactions are limited to the learning topic you submit.
Data and privacy
Your use of CertStudy is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which describes how we collect, use, and protect your data.
Account termination
You may delete your account at any time from Settings. Account deletion is permanent and removes all associated data.
CertStudy reserves the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms, engage in abusive behavior, or compromise the security or integrity of the service. Where possible, we will provide notice before taking action.
Limitation of liability
CertStudy is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind, express or implied. To the maximum extent permitted by law, CertStudy and its operators are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the service.
Our total liability for any claim related to the service is limited to the amount you paid for your subscription in the 12 months preceding the claim, or $100, whichever is greater.
Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the state of Washington, USA. Any disputes will be resolved in the courts of Washington state.
Changes to these terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be communicated through the platform or by email. Continued use of CertStudy after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
