Terms of service

These terms are an agreement between you and LDG Detailing Academy ("the academy", "we") for the use of this website, your account, subscriptions and course material. By creating an account or using the courses, you agree to them. Please read them with the privacy policy.

1. Accounts and eligibility

  • You must be at least 18 years old, or have the consent of a parent or guardian who accepts these terms for you.
  • Give your real name and an email address you can reach, and keep them up to date. Your name appears on your work, grades and watermarks.
  • An account is for one person only. Do not share your password or let anyone else use your account, and do not create accounts for others.
  • Keep your password private and use two-step verification if you can. Tell us straight away if you think someone else has used your account. You are responsible for what happens in your account until you tell us.

2. Subscriptions and payment

  • Creating an account is free. You can browse course outlines and preview lessons without paying.
  • Lessons, assignments and exams open with a subscription. The plans, prices and what each includes are shown on the pricing page at the time you order. Prices are in Philippine pesos unless stated otherwise.
  • Payment is made by bank transfer or e-wallet, quoting the payment reference shown in your account. Academy staff check each payment by hand. Your subscription starts when the academy confirms your payment, not when you send it, and runs to the end date shown on your account page.
  • If a payment cannot be matched or confirmed, we will tell you and it will not start a subscription until it is resolved.

3. Renewals

  • Subscriptions do not renew or charge you automatically. To continue, order and pay for a new period.
  • If you renew before your current period ends, the new period starts on your current end date, so you do not lose any paid days.
  • When a subscription ends, lessons, assignments and exams lock. Your progress, submissions and grades stay on your account and are available again when you renew.

4. Cancellation and refunds

  • You can stop using the service at any time. Because subscriptions do not renew automatically, there is nothing to cancel for future periods.
  • Refund requests for a period you have already paid for are handled case by case under the academy's refund policy as published or provided to you at the time of purchase. Contact us with your payment reference.
  • Nothing in these terms limits the rights you have as a consumer under the Consumer Act of the Philippines (Republic Act No. 7394) and other applicable law.
  • If the academy ends your subscription early for a reason that is not your fault, for example because it stops offering a course your plan was bought for, we will offer a fair remedy such as a pro-rated refund or credit.

5. Your licence to use the course material

Course videos, documents, drawings, exams and other material belong to the academy or its instructors and licensors and are protected by the Intellectual Property Code of the Philippines (Republic Act No. 8293). While your subscription is active, the academy gives you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to view the material for your own learning. You may not:

  • record, screen-capture, download or save videos or video streams, or try to get around the protections on them;
  • copy, share, sell, publish or upload course material, except files clearly marked as downloadable, which are still for your personal use only;
  • share your account or sign-in, or let others watch through your account;
  • use the material to run your own training for others.

Videos and documents carry a watermark with your name and account details to discourage copying. Unless your plan says otherwise, your account can be signed in on up to 2 devices at once; signing in on another device ends the oldest session.

6. Your submissions

  • You keep ownership of the work you hand in. You give the academy a licence to store, copy and show it to the instructors and staff who need to grade it, review it for academic integrity and keep records of your results.
  • The academy will not publish your work or show it to other students without your permission.
  • Hand in only work you have the right to share. Do not upload confidential drawings or documents from an employer or client unless you are allowed to, and remove details that identify a real project where you can.

7. Acceptable use

Do not use the website to:

  • break the law or anyone's rights, including privacy and intellectual property rights;
  • upload viruses or harmful files, or files that are not related to your coursework;
  • try to get into accounts, areas or data you are not authorised to see, test the site's security without written permission, or overload the service;
  • scrape or copy the site with automated tools;
  • harass, threaten or abuse instructors, staff or other students.

8. Academic integrity

  • Assignments must be your own work. Say where you used someone else's work.
  • Exams are taken alone, within their time limit, and without help from other people or materials the exam does not allow. Do not share exam questions or answers.
  • Instructors may ask for changes before grading, and grades follow the rubric or marking shown with the task. If we find cheating or copying, we may give a grade of zero, cancel the result, or suspend the account under section 9.

9. Suspension and termination

  • The academy may suspend or close an account that breaks these terms, for example by sharing an account, copying course material or cheating. We review each case first, tell you why and give you a chance to reply, unless the law or an urgent security risk prevents it.
  • Records are kept during a suspension. If your account is closed for a serious breach, you may not be entitled to a refund for the rest of the period, subject to your rights under consumer law.
  • You can delete your account at any time from your profile page. Deleting it ends your access straight away. How your data is handled is explained in the privacy policy.

10. Educational content, not professional certification

  • The courses are training in structural steel detailing. Completing a course, passing an exam, or any record of completion the academy issues is not a professional licence, an engineering qualification or a certification by any government or professional body.
  • Course examples are for learning. They are not engineering advice and must not be used as the design or approval for a real structure. Real projects need checking and approval by a qualified, licensed engineer under the codes that apply.
  • We work to keep the material accurate and the website available, but the service is provided "as is". We do not promise it will be free of errors or available without interruption, and courses may be updated, replaced or retired.

11. Limitation of liability

To the extent the law allows, the academy is not liable for indirect or consequential loss, such as lost profits, lost work opportunities or loss caused by relying on course examples in real projects. Our total liability to you for any claim about the service is limited to the amount you paid the academy for the subscription period in which the claim arose. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, including for fraud, gross negligence or your rights as a consumer.

12. Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of the Philippines. If you have a complaint, please contact us first so we can try to resolve it. Any dispute that cannot be settled will be brought before the proper courts of the Philippines, without affecting your right to go to the Department of Trade and Industry or another government agency.

13. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms when the service or the law changes. We will tell you by email or in your account before a material change takes effect. The terms in force on the day you pay apply to that subscription period. If you do not accept the new terms, you may stop using the service before they apply to you.

14. Contact

For questions about these terms, payments or refunds, write to the academy from the email address registered to your account.
