Terms of use
The mission of the UPSC Guide(officially registered as Nikam Education (OPC) Pvt Ltd under the Company’s act of Government of India) is to enhance life through learning. We allow anyone to create and share educational courses (instructors) anywhere and to enroll for
learning (students) in these educational courses. We see our online platform as the best way to provide our users with useful educational content. To keep our site and resources secure for you, us, and our group of students and teachers, we need guidelines. Such Terms apply to all of the activities on the website of the Nikam Education (OPC) Pvt Ltd, mobile apps of the Nikam Education (OPC) Pvt Ltd, and other related services.
Accounts
You require an account on our website for most of the activities. Hold your password safe somewhere because you are responsible for all your account-related activities. If you think that someone else is using your password, contact our Support Team to let us know. You must
have reached the age of consent in your country to use the Nikam Education (OPC) Pvt Ltd for online services. When you share your account login credentials with someone else, you are responsible for what happens to your account and the Nikam Education (OPC) Pvt Ltd will not interfere with conflicts between students or teachers who have exchanged account login credentials. To build an account on the Nikam Education (OPC) Pvt Ltd and use the Services, students and instructors must be at least 18 years of age. You may not be able to set up an account if you are younger than the required age, but we encourage you to allow a parent or guardian to open an account and help you enroll in courses that suit you. We will terminate your account if
we learn that you have created an account and you are younger than the age needed to agree to use online services (for example, 13 in the US). Course Enrollment and Lifetime Access You get a license from us when you participate in a course to access it through the Nikam Education (OPC) Pvt Ltd Services and no other application. Don't try to transfer or resell courses in any way. We grant you a lifetime access license, except when we must disable the course because of legal or policy reasons. This means that we are entitled to sub-license the course to the students who participate in the course. As a student, you get a certificate from Nikam Education (OPC) Pvt Ltd to access the course through the Nikam Education (OPC) Pvt Ltd Platform and Services when you enroll in a course, whether it's a free or paid course, and Nikam Education (OPC) Pvt Ltd is the record licensor. Courses are available to you, not rented. This license does not give you any right to resell the course in any manner (including by sharing account information with a purchaser or illegally downloading the course and sharing it on torrent sites). In legal, more complete terms, Nikam Education (OPC) Pvt Ltd grants you (as a student) a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access and view the courses and associated content for which you have paid all required fees, solely for your personal, non- commercial, educational purposes through the Services, in accordance with these Terms and any conditions or restrictions associated with a particular courses or feature of our Services. All other applications are specifically forbidden. You may not reproduce, redistribute, transmit, assign, sell, broadcast, rent, share, lend, modify, adapt, edit, create derivative works of, sublicense, or otherwise transfer or use any course unless we give you explicit permission to do so in a written agreement signed by a Nikam Education (OPC) Pvt Ltd authorized representative. This also applies to content you can access via any of our APIs. We generally give a lifetime access license to our students when they enroll in a course. However, we reserve the right to revoke any license to access and use courses at any point in time in the event where we decide or are obligated to disable access to a course due to legal or policy reasons, for example, if the course you enrolled in is the object of a copyright complaint, or if we determine its content violates our Trust & Safety Guidelines. The lifetime access is not applicable to add-on features and services associated with a course, for example, translation captions of courses may be disabled by instructors at any time, and an instructor may decide at any time to no longer provide teaching assistance or Q&A services in association with a course. To be clear, the lifetime access is to the course content but not to the instructor. Instructors may not directly issue student licenses for their courses and any such direct license shall be null and void and a violation of these Terms. Payments, Credits, and Refunds You consent to use a legal method of payment when you make payment. If you are not pleased with your course, there is no refund or credit given by the Nikam Education (OPC) Pvt Ltd for any purchases of the course. Pricing-In some cases, due to the pricing systems of mobile platform providers and their policies
regarding the implementation of sales and promotions, the price of a course offered on the Nikam Education (OPC) Pvt Ltd website may not be exactly the same as the price offered on our mobile. With our courses, we regularly run deals and discounts and certain courses are only available for a set period of time at discounted prices. The price for a course will be the price when you complete the course's purchase (at checkout). Any price offered for a specific course may also differ from the price available to users who are not registered or logged in when you are logged into your account because some of our promotions are only available to new users. If you are logged into your account, when you created your account, the currency you see will be based on your location. If you are not signed in, the price currency will be dependent on the country you are located in. We do not allow users in other currencies to see pricing. If you are a student in a country where the tax on use and sales, goods and services, or value-added tax applies to consumer sales, we are responsible for collecting and sending that tax to the proper tax authorities. The price you see may include these taxes in some countries. Payments You agree to pay the fees for the courses you purchase and you authorize us to charge for those fees your debit or credit card or other payment methods (such as Boleto, SEPA, direct debit or mobile wallet). Nikam Education (OPC) Pvt Ltd works with payment processing partners from third parties to provide you with the most convenient payment methods in your country and to keep your payment details secure. For more info, see our Privacy Policy.
You agree not to use an invalid or unauthorized method of payment when you make apurchase. If your method of payment fails and you still have access to the course you are enrolling in, you agree to pay us the fees within thirty (30) days of our notification. We reserve
the right to disable access to any course for which adequate payments have not been received. We will grant credits to your account in some situations. These credits will be automatically applied to our website for your next course purchase, but can't be used for mobile purchases.
If used within the specified period, credits can expire and have no cash value.
Content and Behavior Rules
The Nikam Education (OPC) Pvt Ltd can only be used for legitimate purposes. You are

You can submit courses for publication on the website if you are a teacher, and you can also
interact with the students who have enrolled in your courses. In both cases, you must comply

summary or other material that violates your country's relevant local or national laws or
regulations. You are solely responsible for any courses, content, and acts you post or take
through the website and its consequences.
When, at the request of law enforcement or government agencies, you fail to pay any payment
due for prolonged periods of inactivity, for unexplained technical problems or accidents, or if
we believe you are engaged in fraudulent or illegal activities. We may delete your account and
content upon such termination, and we may prevent further access to and use of our Services
platforms. Even if your account is terminated or removed, your content may still be available
on the platforms. You agree that we will not be responsible for terminating your account,
removing your content or blocking your access to our platforms and services to you or any
third party.
