• The use of our Website, mobile application (if any), and Services is entirely at your own risk. Atypical Academy does not guarantee that Services will meet your expectations, yield specific examination results, or secure admission into any institution. Academic performance depends on multiple factors, including individual dedication, aptitude, and external circumstances.

2. Educational Information Disclaimer

• The Website provides information about various academic programs, examination structures, question patterns, and preparatory strategies. This information is compiled through internal research, publicly available data, and official sources of examination authorities.
• While we aim to provide reliable insights, this information should be treated as general educational guidance only. It should not be relied upon as professional academic counselling or career advice.
• Examination authorities may change their schedules, syllabi, or evaluation methodologies at their discretion. Atypical Academy does not guarantee that all such changes will be reflected in our Services immediately, nor shall we be responsible for outcomes arising due to reliance on outdated or incomplete information.

• (a) Breach of Terms & Conditions: If the Student violates or attempts to violate any provision of these Terms, Privacy Policy, or other policies incorporated herein by reference. Examples include but are not limited to: sharing login credentials, unauthorised distribution of study material, or disruption of live classes. Depending on the severity of the breach, termination may be temporary (suspension for investigation) or permanent (revocation of enrolment without refund).
• (b) Fraudulent or Unlawful Activity: If the Student engages in fraudulent enrolments, unauthorised use of payment methods, identity theft, misrepresentation of eligibility, or any illegal activity on the Website or within Academy Services. If such fraudulent activity causes harm to Atypical Academy, other Students, or third parties, the Academy reserves the right to report the matter to relevant law enforcement or regulatory authorities. Termination under this ground may also lead to forfeiture of all fees paid.

• 11.2. In case of termination due to Student misconduct, no refunds shall be provided.

12. Inclusive Learning & Sign Language Respect

• At Atypical Advantage, we deeply respect and celebrate sign languages, including Indian Sign Language (ISL) and other sign languages used by Deaf communities across the world. We recognize sign languages as complete, rich, natural languages that are deeply connected to identity, culture, communication, and learning.
• Our English course is not designed to replace sign language or discourage its use in any way. No learner is expected to choose English over sign language. Instead, the course is built on the belief that English can be an additional skill that supports access to education, employment, digital platforms, and wider professional opportunities.
• We also recognize that there is no single approach that works for every Deaf or hard-of-hearing individual. Learners may use sign language, written language, speech, assistive technology, or a combination of methods based on their comfort, identity, and needs.
• Atypical Advantage follows an inclusive bilingual approach: we respect and promote sign language while also supporting learners who want to strengthen their English skills.
• The goal of this course is simple: to give Deaf and hard-of-hearing learners more tools, more access, and more confidence — without compromising their language, identity, or choices.

13. Governing Law & Jurisdiction

• These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of India.
• All disputes shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts at Jamshedpur, Jharkhand, subject always to applicable arbitration clauses.

14. Policy Updates

• Atypical Academy reserves the right to update or amend these Terms from time to time to reflect changes in legal, business, or academic practices.
• Material updates will be notified through email or prominent announcements on the Website. Students are advised to periodically review these Terms to remain updated.
