Terms of Use
Whereas the party of the first part (hereinafter "Provider") and the party of the second part (hereinafter "End User") mutually covenant pursuant to clause 12(c)(iv) of the master agreement…
The deal, in
plain English.
These are the rules for using Laertex, what you can expect from us, and what we ask from you. We wrote them the same way we teach money: clearly, honestly, and without traps in the footnotes. Reading this shouldn't require a law degree.
We teach, we don't advise
Laertex is education. We give you knowledge and skills, your financial decisions stay yours.
30-day refund, no drama
Buy a course, hate it, get your money back within 30 days. One email. No exit interview.
Be decent, stay welcome
Our community works because people treat each other well. Keep it kind and honest, and you're always welcome here.
The agreement
These terms are a contract between you and Laertex Inc. By creating an account or using our website, courses, and community (together, "Laertex"), you're agreeing to them. If you don't agree, that's okay, but please don't use Laertex.
You need to be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority where you live) to create an account. If you're using Laertex on behalf of a company or school, you're confirming you have the authority to accept these terms for them.
In plain English
Using Laertex means you accept these rules. You need to be an adult to sign up.
We're your teacher, not your advisor
This is the most important section on this page, so it gets the biggest box.
Everything on Laertex, courses, guides, calculators, community posts, is educational content, not financial, investment, tax, or legal advice. We teach concepts, skills, and frameworks so you can make better decisions. We don't know your full financial situation, and we don't tell you what to do with your money.
We are not a registered investment advisor, broker, bank, or tax professional. Before making significant financial decisions, consider talking to a licensed professional who can look at your specific circumstances.
Your decisions and their results are yours. Markets go down, plans change, and no education can guarantee an outcome. Anyone promising guaranteed financial results is someone to run from, including us, if we ever did. We won't.
In plain English
We hand you the map and teach you to read it. Where you drive, and how the trip goes — is up to you.
Your account
Keep your login details to yourself, your account is for you, and you're responsible for what happens under it. Use a strong password (we teach a lesson on that, actually), and tell us right away at
Give us accurate information when you sign up, and keep your email current, it's how we reach you about anything important, including changes to these terms.
In plain English
One account, one person, real email, strong password. Tell us fast if something looks wrong.
Payments & refunds
Prices are shown clearly before you pay — the price on the button is the price you're charged, plus any tax your location requires. No surprise fees at checkout, ever.
If you have a subscription, it renews automatically, and we'll email you before any renewal at a higher price. You can cancel anytime from your settings, cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period, and it's a button, not a phone call.
Our refund policy is simple: if a course isn't right for you, email us within 30 days of purchase for a full refund. We won't grill you about why. We ask honesty in return, the refund window isn't a way to take every course for free, and we may decline refunds where there's a clear pattern of abuse.
In plain English
Clear prices, a warning before renewals, easy cancellation, and 30 days to change your mind.
Using our content
When you buy a course, you get a personal, lifetime license to learn from it, watch it, re-watch it, download your worksheets, take notes, use everything you learn in your real life. That never expires.
What you can't do: resell our courses, share your login, upload our videos elsewhere, or repackage our materials as your own. Laertex content stays our intellectual property, the license is for your learning, not for redistribution. If you're a teacher or creator who wants to use our materials with a group, just ask; we say yes more often than you'd think.
In plain English
Your course is yours to learn from forever. It's not yours to resell or repost.
The house rules
Our community exists so regular people can talk about money without shame or scams. To keep it that way, don't:
Pitch or promote, no selling products, recruiting for MLMs, shilling investments, or "DM me for a great opportunity."
Give directive financial advice, share your experience ("here's what worked for me"), not instructions ("put your savings in X now").
Shame anyone about money, debt, low income, past mistakes. Everyone here started somewhere. Punch at the confusing system, never at the confused person.
Break the law or the platform, no harassment, impersonation, scraping, hacking, or using Laertex for anything illegal.
We may remove content or suspend accounts that break these rules. For anything short of serious harm, we'll warn you first and explain why.
In plain English
Be kind, be honest, don't sell stuff, don't play advisor. That covers 99% of it.
Your content
Anything you post in our community, questions, wins, budgeting tips — stays yours. By posting, you give us permission to display it on Laertex so other learners can see it. That's the whole reason you posted it, and that's all we use the permission for.
If we'd ever like to feature your story in marketing, say, a success story on our homepage , we'll ask you first. Your post in a community thread is not silent permission for a billboard.
In plain English
Your posts belong to you. We show them where you posted them, and we ask before using them anywhere else.
Ending things
You can leave anytime. Delete your account from settings, and our privacy policy takes over from there, your data is erased within 30 days.
We can suspend or close accounts that seriously or repeatedly break these terms. Unless the violation involves harm to others, fraud, or legal risk, we'll warn you before acting and tell you what happened. If we ever discontinue a paid course you own with no replacement, we'll refund the unexpired value — you won't pay for something that disappears.
In plain English
Leave whenever you want. If we ever have to close your account, you'll know why, no silent bans.
Limits of liability
We work hard to keep Laertex accurate, available, and useful, and we fix mistakes when we find them. But we provide the platform "as is": we can't promise it will always be error-free or online, and we can't guarantee any financial outcome from what you learn.
To the extent the law allows, our total liability to you is capped at the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the issue arose. We're not liable for indirect losses, like investment losses, lost profits, or decisions you made based on educational content. Some places don't allow certain liability limits, so parts of this may not apply to you; nothing here takes away rights the law guarantees you.
In plain English
We stand behind our teaching, but we can't insure your financial decisions. The most we'd owe you is what you paid us.
If we disagree
If something goes wrong, talk to us first, email
If we truly can't resolve it, these terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, and disputes will be handled in courts located in St. Johns County, Florida, or small claims court where you live, if your claim qualifies. Nothing here waives rights that your local consumer protection laws guarantee you.
In plain English
Email us before lawyering up, we'd rather fix the problem than fight about it.
Changes to these terms
If we make a change that meaningfully affects your rights or costs, we'll email you at least 30 days before it takes effect, with a plain-English summary of what's different. If you keep using Laertex after that, the new terms apply; if you don't like the change, you can close your account before it kicks in, and we'll refund any unused prepaid time. Minor clarifications just update the date at the top.
In plain English
Real changes come with 30 days' notice and an exit option. We don't move the goalposts quietly.
Questions? Ask a human.
If any part of these terms is confusing, that's a writing problem on our end, and we'd like to fix it. Write to us and a real person will reply within two business days.
