Live sessions are recorded and available for students and teachers within their private Digital Learning Space for (i) Academic, (ii) Quality Control, and (iii) Dispute resolution purposes.

i. Academic Purposes: Both Students and Teachers benefit greatly from the video recordings of their sessions. Students are able to review their past sessions as many times as they want which allows them to remember and fully understand all academic material covered during one or more completed sessions (new vocabulary, grammar, exam techniques etc). Teachers can also and at any time have a clear picture of all materials that have already been taught by them in the past and in what detail, and be sure of what remains to be taught in the future. Teachers can also inform their students for specific sessions they might have to review in order to move on with the course without having to constantly repeat specific topics and fall back on course syllabus, usually at the expense their fellow-students (in case of group lessons)

ii) Quality Control Purposes: Live session video recordings are also sporadically being monitored by Globalcitizen academic advisors and technical staff, in order for them to be able to ensure the highest quality of the Educational Services that are bought from the Students and provided by the Teachers in terms of the application of its unique educational system (Globalcitizen methodology®) as well as the correct use of the educational and other digital tools necessary for the correct conduct of the lessons (procedure for which all Teachers have been fully informed about, trained upon and have accepted to use during their lessons with their students).

iii) Dispute resolution purposes: Students and Teachers can get in various types of dispute between each other and ask for Globalcitizen for intervention on a specific matter. Through the Lesson video recordings that the Globalcitizen admin team will have access to, a number of disputes can easily be resolved eg whether a lesson has been conducted on a specific date and time and for the its total duration as agreed upon, whether the material taught is relevant and up to Globalcitizen standards, plus any dispute for either Teacher of Student ill behavior during lessons.

The Video recordings are available for viewing (for any of the above mentioned purposes) for a total period of 12 months.

4. Financial Terms for Teachers

By accepting a Lesson/Package Request, you agree to provide the Lesson to the Student/s at the date and time as described in the applicable Lesson/Package Request be it private or group lesson. You can choose to decline any Lesson/Package Request. If you do not respond within the predefined request limit, the Lesson/Package Request will automatically expire.

4.2 Teacher Fees

For every Lesson/Package Request, Teachers in combination with the Globalcitizen Retail Associate/Partner come to an agreement upon a specific “Teacher Lesson/Package Fee”. This fee can vary depending on a number of factors such as type of Service provided each time by the Teacher and/or number of students attending a Lesson/Package.

The Commission Fee will be deducted upon the transfer of Globalcitizen Credits from the Student’s Account to the Teacher's Account.

The balance shown in the Teacher Wallet is the full balance after all fees have been deducted and will be directly related to the Teacher Fee agreed upon for each individual Lesson/Package Requests accepted by the Teacher.

Withdrawals from the Teachers Account are typically made at the beginning of each following month and are made by Globalcitizen through the Teachers designated Withdrawal Method.

4.7 Withholding or Delaying Disbursement of Funds

5. Lesson Packages

A Teacher may accept Lesson Requests that include more than one Lesson in a single package (each such lesson package, a "Lesson Package"). Students are expecting to complete all Lessons in the Lesson Packages within six (6) months of the purchase date (the "Package Expiration Date"). If there are any remaining Lessons that have not been completed on or before the Package Expiration Date, Globalcitizen will send reminders to both the Student and the Teacher prior to the applicable Package Expiration Date. The Student may extend the Lesson Package on the Student’s Globalcitizen Account before the applicable Package Expiration Date, but if the Student fails to do so, then all remaining Globalcitizen Credits in the package will be sent to the Teacher, minus Globalcitizen's Commission Fees.

6. Taxes

Teachers shall be solely responsible for determining their applicable tax related duties in connection with the income obtained from their Teacher Services, and shall also be solely responsible for remitting to the relevant authority any applicable taxes that need to be paid. Globalcitizen cannot and does not offer tax-related advice to any Members.

7. Globalcitizen Credits Policies

7.1 Globalcitizen Credits are not Bank Deposits

You acknowledge that: (1) Globalcitizen is not a bank, and Student and Teacher Accounts are a payment service rather than a banking service; and (2) Globalcitizen is not acting as a trustee or fiduciary with respect to your funds, but is acting only as an agent and custodian. (3) GLOBALCITIZEN IS NOT A BANK, AND AMOUNTS TRANSFERRED THROUGH OR STORED IN STUDENT ACCOUNTS OR TEACHER ACCOUNTS ARE NOT INSURED DEPOSITS.

7.2 Globalcitizen Credits Expiration Policy

Globalcitizen Credits in a Globalcitizen Account will be valid for so long as the Member remains active on Globalcitizen. If any Member’s Globalcitizen Account has been inactive for more than twelve (12) months, the Globalcitizen Credits will expire. Credits can be reactivated by contacting Globalcitizen customer support with a reactivation request, with the condition that the credits have been expired for less than 12 months. Credits can be reactivated only one time, and will be valid for 12 months after the reactivation. Any activity in the credits will extend the expiration date of the credits an additional 12 months.

7.3 Foreign Exchange Risk

Globalcitizen Credits are tied to Euros.

7.4 Globalcitizen Credits Limitations

Globalcitizen Credits are valid only when purchased on the Globalcitizen Platform or through authorized Globalcitizen Retail Associates/Partners. Globalcitizen Credits in the form of Globalcitizen gift cards or vouchers cannot be resold or redeemed for cash. Globalcitizen Credits redeemed from gift cards or vouchers purchased through unofficial sources or channels are subject to cancellation without notice.

8. Globalcitizen's Rights Regarding Globalcitizen Accounts and Funds

8.1 Security and Financial Fraud

As a security measure, Globalcitizen may impose transaction limits on some or all Students and Teachers relating to the value of any transaction or disbursement, the cumulative value of all transactions or disbursements during a period of time, or the number of transactions per day or other period of time. We will impose these limits before any services are rendered if we determine it is necessary for security reasons or the prevention of fraud.

Globalcitizen reserves the right to void Globalcitizen Credit purchases if purchases are found to be fraudulent. This includes Globalcitizen Credits that have been redeemed from fraudulent Globalcitizen gift card purchases.

8.2 Reservation of Rights for Erroneous Transactions

Globalcitizen reserves the right to seek reimbursement from any Teacher or Student, if Globalcitizen, in its sole discretion, determines that erroneous or duplicate transactions have occurred. Globalcitizen may obtain such reimbursement by deducting from future payments owed to such Teacher, by reversing any Globalcitizen Credits to such Teacher's Teacher Wallet, or by seeking reimbursement from such Teacher by any other lawful means.

8.3 Prohibition on Friendly Fraud

"Friendly Fraud" is when a person initiates a fraud dispute with a payment provider, claiming that their credit card (or other payment method) was not intended to be used. Because Globalcitizen does not offer refunds, users that disagree with the policy have tried to use Friendly Fraud to receive a refund.

This type of behavior is illegal and prohibited by all payment providers. Globalcitizen also strictly opposes Friendly Fraud. If Friendly Fraud is discovered, the Student's Globalcitizen Account will be deactivated, purchased credits will be confiscated, and the Student will be noted as a financial security risk.

In the case of honest mistakes, Globalcitizen can reverse the transaction. We strongly advise Students to contact Globalcitizen Customer Service to resolve any financial disputes.

9. Prohibitions

In addition to complying with the restrictions regarding improper use of the Globalcitizen Platform described in Section 11 (Restrictions) of the Globalcitizen Terms, you understand and agree that you are solely responsible for compliance with any applicable laws, rules, regulations, and tax obligations that may apply to you in connection with the use of the Payment Services.

10. Teacher – Student Dispute

In the event of a disagreement between a Teacher and a Student, Globalcitizen encourages the Teacher and Student to communicate directly through its official communication channels and attempt to resolve the disagreement. If a Teacher and Student are unable to resolve a disagreement and Globalcitizen is asked to mediate, Globalcitizen will have to look at all Live Lesson delivery materials (Lesson recordings) and Digital Classroom activity records regarding the dispute, which should show all key relevant information including the time, date and communication details. Although Globalcitizen will attempt to evaluate the dispute on an impartial basis, Globalcitizen will have the authority to resolve the dispute in its sole discretion, and Globalcitizen’s resolution of the dispute will be final. As a result, Globalcitizen shall have the right, in its sole discretion:
