Please read these Terms and the Privacy Policy carefully before using the PROGRAM Service. These Terms constitute a binding agreement between you and Suffolk University Center for Continuing and Professional Education and its affiliates and subsidiaries (“Suffolk University Center for Continuing and Professional Education”, “our”, “we,” or “us”). At all times herein, Institution, our, we and/or us, are to be considered as one and the same. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the PROGRAM Terms. “Users” shall mean all visitors to the PROGRAM Service. You accept these Terms and agree to abide by these Terms, by accessing the PROGRAM Service. If you do not accept these Terms, you must not use, and hereby agree not to use the PROGRAM Service.

We reserve the right to and may revise these Terms at any time by posting an updated version. You should visit this page periodically to review the most current Terms, because you are bound by them.

2. Eligibility

The PROGRAM Service is only available to individuals who are at least 18 years old, unless we specify otherwise and with the consent of a guardian for anyone under the age of 18 years old.

3. The PROGRAM Service

The “PROGRAM Service” means the website(s) and any associated software, applications, and Internet services under Suffolk University Center for Continuing and Professional Education control, whether partial or otherwise, used in connection with providing the services provided by Suffolk University Center for Continuing and Professional Education. The PROGRAM Service provides an online platform to enable you to view information online and through other connected devices for and about areas of study, classes, courses, workshops, and other education programs and events offered by the Suffolk University Center for Continuing and Professional Education (each a “Program” and, collectively, “Programs”). Together with our teachers, members, thought leaders, and seasoned practitioners (collectively, “Instructors”), participants have access to a robust curriculum focused on skills development in a variety of areas. The PROGRAM Service will also, at times, permit the community of users of the PROGRAM Service to engage in discussions and communications with one another and with the Instructors.

Availability. You may sign up for a Program using the PROGRAM Service. However, we cannot promise the desired or expected availability of the Program. Suffolk University Center for Continuing and Professional Education may, in its sole discretion, change or alter the availability of any Program including but not limited to changing when the course is offered, where the course is offered, how the course is offered, and changing the curriculum content of the course as a substitute for the course selected by the student but which may no longer be provided or available.

Rescheduling, Cancellation and No-Show Policies. We determine the rescheduling, cancellation and no-show policies and apply them at our discretion. You should contact us directly using the contact information provided below, and not the Instructors, for any rescheduling, cancellation or no-show questions.

Chat Room Service. You may, from time to time, be able to engage in online chat sessions with other users of the PROGRAM Service, including Instructors. You should exercise caution, good sense, and sound judgment when submitting messages to be posted in a chat room. The terms “post” and “posting” as used in these Terms shall mean the act of submitting, uploading, publishing, displaying, or similar action on the PROGRAM Service. Think – and read twice – before you post anything. Once something is posted online it may live in perpetuity, and messages posted today could be highly embarrassing or damaging to your credibility or reputation in the future. You are solely responsible for any comments or materials you post in a chat room and assume any and all liability arising out of a post. Suffolk University Center for Continuing and Professional Education makes no representations or warranties with respect to the confidentiality of any posts you make through the PROGRAM Service.

Information You Provide to Instructors. Your Instructors may ask for information from you, such as your email address, to help facilitate the provision of the Program. Instructors are required to use this information only to communicate with you in a professional manner about Program materials.

Third-Party Products and Services. We use third-party software, applications, and other products and services to help us provide the Service, but such use does not indicate that we endorse them or are responsible or liable for their quality, performance or actions. The PROGRAM Service may link to third-party websites or applications to facilitate its provision of services to you. If you use these links, you will leave the PROGRAM Service. Some of these third-party websites or applications may use PROGRAM Content (defined below) under license from PROGRAM Services. PROGRAM Services is not responsible for these third-party websites or applications, whether or not PROGRAM Services is affiliated with such third-party websites or applications. Through our use, we do not endorse the organizations sponsoring such third-party websites, applications or their products or services. You agree that PROGRAM Service is not responsible or liable for any loss or damage of any sort incurred as a result of any such dealings you may have on or through a third-party website, application or as a result of the presence of any third-party advertising on the PROGRAM Service. You should check the privacy policy and terms of use of any third-party website or application that you use or visit as a result of the PROGRAM Service.

Social Sign-On. The PROGRAM Service may allow you to register and log in using sign-on functionality provided by social networks, such as Facebook. You agree to abide by the social networks’ terms and conditions applicable to you.

Featuring a Program or Instructor. We may recommend a Program and/or Instructor as part of a collection of Programs. However, as stated more fully elsewhere in these Terms, Suffolk University Center for Continuing and Professional Education makes no representations or warranties as to the quality or nature of Programs or Instructors shown on the PROGRAM Service or any outcome you may achieve as a result of taking a Program or Programs.

Featuring Your Work.

You Agree To Pay Us For Your Purchases. You agree to pay for all products and services that you purchase through the PROGRAM Service, and you agree that we may charge your selected payment method, either directly or through the services of a third-party payment processor, for any such payments. Only those payment methods accepted by our third-party payment processor can be used to purchase products, goods, or services through the PROGRAM Service. If you repeat any Program, you must pay all of the then current tuition applicable to such Program.

Third-Party Payment Processors. Suffolk University Center for Continuing and Professional Education currently uses third-party payment processors for electronic commerce. Our third-party payment processor accepts payments through methods detailed on the applicable payment screen, which may include various credit cards and PayPal.

Availability of Certain Forms of Payment. Suffolk University Center for Continuing and Professional Education makes no representations or warranties about the continued availability of any particular form of payment method made available for use with the PROGRAM Service.

Pre-Authorization. When you provide a credit card number to us to activate and/or pay for any fees related to PROGRAM Service, we, through our third-party payment processor, may seek pre-authorization of your credit card account prior to a purchase to verify the credit card is valid and/or has the necessary funds or credit available to cover your purchase. These pre-authorizations will reduce your available balance by the authorization amount until it is released or reconciled with the actual charge. Please contact your card issuer if you have additional questions regarding when an authorization amount will be removed from your statement.

Timing of Charges. Charges occur within a reasonable time of the transaction or shortly thereafter, and multiple charges during the same period may be aggregated together.

Disputed Charges. You agree to submit any disputed charges you become aware of on your account immediately, by sending a notice in writing to Suffolk University Center for Continuing and Professional Education within thirty (30) days of your receipt such disputed charge, or your dispute is waived, and such charge will be final and not subject to challenge.

Right to Cancel/Rescind Prior to Starting Program. Before you start your Program, you may cancel/rescind your Enrollment Agreement and request a refund of any tuition and fees paid to us, only if a cancellation to attend the Program is requested in writing by you at least seven (7) calendar days before the start of your Program. If a request is made six (6) or fewer days before the start of your Program, no refund will be granted. Please submit a written request for cancellation of your Program, and if applicable, to request a refund, using the address provided in Section 15 below.

Modification of Cancellation/Rescission and Refund Policies. We may modify our cancellation/rescission or refund policies at any time with or without specific notice to you; provided, however, the policies in effect at the time of any transaction shall apply to such purchase despite any subsequent change in such policy.

Taxes. The term “Taxes” includes sales, use, value added, or transaction taxes and other government-imposed fees and charges. You are responsible for paying the appropriate taxes resulting from a transaction occurring through the PROGRAM Service. Suffolk University Center for Continuing and Professional Education is not responsible for collecting, reporting, paying, or remitting to you any such taxes, unless required by law.

Currency. The currency required for settling transactions with us will be U.S. dollars. Depending on where you are located, your transaction may be subject to applicable currency conversion-related transaction fees and exchange rate changes.

Fees Charged by Third-Party Payment Processors. The PROGRAM Service uses third parties to process payments. Use of such third-party payment services is subject to their terms and conditions of use. Those third parties may charge fees to process payments, and Suffolk University Center for Continuing and Professional Education is not responsible for any fees charged by them. Suffolk University Center for Continuing and Professional Education disclaims all liability with regard to any fees or problems you have with third-party payment processors.

Violations of Copyright. Tell us if you think a user has violated your copyright using the PROGRAM Service, or if you think someone incorrectly reported that you violated his or her copyright.

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA”) provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law. If you believe in good faith that materials posted on the PROGRAM Service infringe your copyright, you (or your agent) may send us a written “Notification of Claimed Infringement” requesting that the material be removed, or access to it blocked. The notice must include the following information:

  1. A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the works that have been allegedly infringed;
  2. Identification of the copyrighted work alleged to have been infringed (or if multiple copyrighted works located on the PROGRAM Service are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works);
  3. Identification of the specific material alleged to be infringing or the subject of infringing activity, and information reasonably sufficient to allow us to locate the material on the PROGRAM Service;
  4. Your name, address, telephone number, and email address (if available);
  5. A statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and
  6. A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

If you believe in good faith that a notice of copyright infringement has been wrongly filed against you, the DMCA permits you to send PROGRAM a counter-notice.

Notices and counter-notices must meet the then-current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA; see http://www.loc.gov/copyright/ for details. Notices and counter-notices with respect to the PROGRAM Service should be sent to Suffolk University Center for Continuing and Professional Education, 73 Tremont Street, Boston, MA 02108, USA. Consult your legal advisor and see 17 U.S.C. § 512 before filing a notice or counter-notice as there are penalties for false claims under the DMCA.
