Terms of Use

Effective date: May 14, 2026 · Last updated: May 14, 2026

Please read these Terms carefully. They form a binding contract between you and Novus Technologies. Section 14 (Disclaimers) and Section 15 (Limitation of liability) limit our responsibility to you. If you are a consumer in the European Union, the United Kingdom, or Canada, those limits apply only to the extent permitted by your local consumer-protection laws.

1. About these Terms

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Solux E-Learning platform at solux-elearning.com, our web and mobile applications, and any related services (collectively, the “Service”). The Service is operated by Novus Technologies, a company registered in Cameroon (“Solux,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).

By creating an account, accessing, or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms and by our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old to use the Service. If you live in the European Union, the United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction that sets a higher minimum age for digital consent, and you are under 16, a parent or legal guardian must review these Terms and provide verifiable consent on your behalf.

By using the Service you confirm that you have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms and that all information you provide is accurate and complete.

• keeping your login credentials confidential;

We may refuse to register, suspend, or terminate an account that violates these Terms or applicable law.

• Online courses, lessons, quizzes, and certificates covering programming, cloud computing, cybersecurity, data science, and related fields;

• An in-app AI assistant that generates responses to your prompts;
• A marketplacefor branded merchandise (“Goodies”);
• Gamification such as experience points (XP), streaks, leaderboards, and a referral programme.

We may add, modify, suspend, or remove features at any time. We will give you reasonable notice of material changes that adversely affect you, where required by law.

5. User content

5.1 Ownership and licence

You retain all rights you hold in the content you create or upload to the Service (your “User Content”). By submitting User Content you grant Solux a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable licence to host, store, reproduce, display, distribute, transmit, adapt, and create derivative works of that content solely for the purpose of operating, promoting, and improving the Service. This licence ends when you delete your User Content, except for backups, caches, content shared with others who have not deleted it, and aggregated/de-identified analytics.

5.2 Your responsibilities

You represent and warrant that, for any User Content you submit:

• you own it or have the necessary rights to share it;
• it does not infringe any third-party intellectual-property, privacy, publicity, or other rights;
• it complies with applicable law and these Terms (including Section 6 below).

5.3 Moderation

We do not pre-screen User Content but we may review, refuse, relocate, edit, or remove content that we reasonably believe violates these Terms or applicable law, with or without notice. We are not responsible for User Content posted by others.

6. Acceptable use

You agree not to use the Service to:

• break the law or encourage others to do so, or violate the rights of any person;
• publish, share, or distribute content that is hateful, harassing, defamatory, sexually explicit involving minors, violent, deceptive, or otherwise harmful;
• impersonate any person or entity or misrepresent your affiliation;
• collect or scrape data from the Service or its users without our written permission;
• probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of the Service, or breach any security or authentication measures;
• interfere with or disrupt the Service, including by sending viruses, malware, or excessive automated requests;
• reverse-engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract source code, except to the extent that applicable law expressly permits it;
• resell, sublicense, or use the Service for the benefit of a third party without our prior written consent;
• use the AI assistant to generate content that violates this Section 6 or attempt to bypass its safety controls.

7. Courses and digital content

Some courses and lessons are available free of charge or through XP; others require a payment. Course access is granted to you for personal, non-commercial use unless we expressly state otherwise. You may not record, copy, redistribute, or publicly display course materials without our written consent.

Course content, including videos, quizzes, certificates, and attachments, may be updated, replaced, or withdrawn over time. Where we withdraw a paid course you have already purchased, we will provide a comparable replacement or a pro-rata refund where required by law.

7.1 Right of withdrawal (EU/EEA/UK consumers)

If you are a consumer in the EU/EEA or the UK, you generally have a 14-day right of withdrawal from contracts concluded online. By purchasing digital content (such as a course) and beginning to access it, you expressly consent to immediate performance and acknowledge that you lose your right of withdrawal once access begins, in line with Article 16(m) of Directive 2011/83/EU. If you have not yet started consuming the course, you can withdraw within 14 days by emailing novustechnologies7@gmail.com.

8. Marketplace (“Goodies”)

Physical products sold through the Service are offered subject to availability. The order is confirmed once payment has been successfully processed and we have sent you an order confirmation.

• Pricing & taxes: prices are displayed in the currency configured for your region (default: XAF). Applicable taxes and shipping fees are shown at checkout.
• Delivery: we will provide an estimated delivery window at checkout. Delivery times are estimates and not guarantees. Risk in the goods passes to you on delivery.
• EU/EEA/UK consumer right of return: you have the right to withdraw from a purchase of physical goods within 14 days of receipt without giving any reason, except where the goods are customised or unsealed and unsuitable for return for hygiene reasons. To exercise this right, contact us at novustechnologies7@gmail.com and ship the goods back at your cost. We will refund the price (and original standard shipping) within 14 days of receiving the goods or proof of return.
• Defective goods: nothing in these Terms affects your statutory rights as a consumer in respect of defective goods or goods not as described.

9. Payments

Payments are processed by third-party providers including Fapshi, NotchPay, and Stripe. By providing a payment method you authorise us (and the relevant provider) to charge it for the amounts due, including taxes. You are responsible for maintaining a valid payment method.

We do not store full card details on our servers. The processor’s terms and privacy policy apply to your use of their service in addition to ours.

10. Experience Points (XP), virtual rewards, and referrals

XP, “Solcoin”, course streaks, leaderboard ranks, certificates of completion, referral rewards, and any similar in-app rewards (collectively, “Virtual Rewards”) are personal to you, non-transferable, and have no monetary value. They cannot be exchanged for cash or for goods or services outside the Service except where we expressly state otherwise.

We may modify, expire, suspend, or revoke Virtual Rewards (including retroactively in cases of fraud, abuse, or violation of these Terms). Referral rewards are subject to additional rules we publish in the Service; we may invalidate referrals that appear inauthentic or intended to game the programme.

11. AI assistant

The in-app AI assistant generates responses using machine-learning models. You should treat its outputs as general information only.

• AI outputs may be inaccurate, incomplete, or out of date; verify before relying on them.
• AI outputs are not professional advice (legal, financial, medical, or otherwise).
• Do not submit personal information about other people, sensitive health data, or confidential information into the assistant unless you are entitled to do so.
• You are responsible for how you use AI outputs, including ensuring that any onward use complies with applicable law and third-party rights.

12. Intellectual property

The Service, including its software, design, text, graphics, logos, trademarks, and curated course content (other than User Content), belongs to Novus Technologies or its licensors and is protected by intellectual-property laws. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to access and use the Service for its intended purpose, subject to these Terms.

“Solux” and the Solux logo are trademarks of Novus Technologies. All other trademarks are the property of their respective owners.

12.1 Copyright complaints

If you believe content on the Service infringes your copyright, send a notice to novustechnologies7@gmail.com including: (a) your contact details; (b) identification of the copyrighted work; (c) the URL of the allegedly infringing content; (d) a statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is unauthorised; and (e) a statement, under penalty of perjury, that your notice is accurate and that you are the rights-holder or authorised to act on their behalf. We may remove infringing content and terminate the accounts of repeat infringers.

13. Termination

You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time from your account settings or by contacting us. We may suspend or terminate your access immediately, with or without notice, if you breach these Terms, if required by law, or if continued provision of the Service to you is no longer commercially viable.

On termination, the licence to your User Content granted in Section 5.1 ends, except as described there. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including 5, 10, 12–19) will survive.

14. Disclaimers

Except where prohibited by law, the Service is provided on an “as-is” and “as available” basis. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Solux disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and accuracy. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, secure, or free of errors, that defects will be corrected, or that course completion will lead to any particular outcome (such as employment or certification recognition by third parties).

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any warranty, right, or remedy that cannot be excluded or limited by applicable consumer law, including in the EU, the UK, and Canada.

15. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Solux, its directors, employees, and agents will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, or other intangible losses, arising out of or in connection with the Service.

Our total aggregate liability to you for all claims arising out of or relating to the Service in any 12-month period will not exceed the greater of (a) the amounts you paid to us in that period, or (b) one hundred Euros (€100).

These limitations do not apply to: (i) liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence; (ii) fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; (iii) liability that cannot be excluded under applicable consumer-protection law; or (iv) under PIPEDA and other Canadian law, any liability that cannot be limited.

16. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless Novus Technologies and its affiliates from and against any claims, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of (a) your breach of these Terms; (b) your User Content; or (c) your violation of any law or of any third-party right. This indemnity does not apply to consumers in the EU, the UK, or Canada to the extent it is unenforceable under local law.

17. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Cameroon, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles. The courts of Yaoundé have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute, except as set out below.

EU/EEA/UK consumers:nothing in this Section deprives you of the protection afforded by mandatory consumer-protection laws of your country of residence, and you may bring proceedings in the courts of your country of residence. The European Commission’s Online Dispute Resolution platform is available at ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr.

Canadian consumers: mandatory provincial consumer-protection laws (including those of Quebec) continue to apply to you, and you may bring proceedings in your province of residence.

18. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date above. If the changes are material, we will give you reasonable advance notice (for example by email or in-app notification) before they take effect. Continued use of the Service after a change becomes effective constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms. If you do not agree to the changes, you must stop using the Service and may close your account.

19. Miscellaneous

• Entire agreement. These Terms and the documents they reference (including the Privacy Policy) form the entire agreement between you and Solux regarding the Service.
• Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.
• Waiver. Our failure to enforce a right or provision is not a waiver of that right or provision.
• Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganisation, or sale of assets.
• No agency. No agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment relationship is created between you and us by these Terms.
• Languages. These Terms may be made available in languages other than English; in case of conflict, the English version prevails, except where mandatory local law requires otherwise.
