That is an excellent and crucial clarification. Thank you for providing the specific business model details for Itirac.
I will now revise the generated Terms and Conditions to accurately reflect that Itirac operates as a technology platform (SaaS/Marketplace hybrid) that facilitates training organizations, professionals, and teachers in creating, managing, and selling their content, rather than acting as a traditional "academy" or direct course provider.
The key changes based on your input will be:
Revenue Model: Updating the payments section to include monthly/annual subscription fees from participants (students/training organizations) AND commissions on course purchases/consultations.
Role Clarification: Emphasizing that Itirac is a facilitator and technology provider, not the creator or seller of the Content.
Instructor/Organization Focus: Strengthening the sections governing the relationship with the trainers (Instructors/Organizations) who use the platform to run their businesses.
Consultation Service: Adding terms specific to the paid consultation booking feature.
Here are the revised and updated Terms and Conditions.
Effective Date: November 27, 2025
These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Itirac website, platform, and associated technology services (collectively, the “Services”).
By registering, accessing, or using the Services, you are agreeing to be bound by these Terms, Itirac’s Privacy Policy, and Itirac’s Refund Policy. If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not use the Services.
“Itirac” (or “We,” “Us,” “Our”) refers to the technology platform and service provider, accessible at itirac.org.
“Content Provider” or “Trainer” refers to any user (individual professional, teacher, or training organization) who uses the Platform to create, manage, sell, and provide their courses or consultations.
“Participant” or “User” refers to any individual accessing or using the Services, including those paying a subscription fee or purchasing Content/Consultations.
“Content” refers to all course materials, lectures, quizzes, documents, video, audio, text, images, and other educational or informational materials uploaded by Content Providers.
“Consultation” refers to a scheduled, paid service (e.g., meeting, coaching session) booked and facilitated through the Platform by a Content Provider.
“Platform” refers to the Itirac technology that hosts the content, manages transactions, and facilitates bookings.
Itirac is a Technology Platform and Marketplace Facilitator. We provide the software, infrastructure, and marketplace to enable Content Providers to operate their training businesses. Itirac does not create, own, or sell the Content, nor do we provide the professional Consultation services. The Content Provider is solely responsible for all Content quality, accuracy, and professional delivery.
To use the Services (as a Content Provider or Participant), you must register for an account. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials. You must be at least 18 years of age to use the Services.
Itirac earns revenue through two primary methods:
Participant Subscription Fees: Participants may be required to pay a monthly or annual subscription fee to access the general marketplace, specific features, or premium content tiers.
Commissions on Sales: Itirac receives a commission when a Content Provider successfully sells a course or books and completes a paid Consultation through the Platform.
While we strive for high availability, the Services may occasionally be unavailable due to maintenance, upgrades, or technical issues. We are not liable for any downtime or loss of data resulting from such events.
If you purchase a monthly or annual subscription, you will have access to the features and content specified at the time of purchase for the duration of the paid term. Subscriptions are automatically renewed unless canceled before the renewal date.
When you purchase a course or book a Consultation, you are entering into a direct contract with the Content Provider, not Itirac.
Itirac acts solely as the agent for the transaction, processing the payment on behalf of the Content Provider.
Upon purchasing a course, you receive a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license from the Content Provider (facilitated by Itirac) to view the Content solely for your personal, non-commercial, educational purposes. You may not reproduce, redistribute, or publicly display the Content.
Pricing: Prices for individual courses and Consultations are set by the Content Provider.
Billing: You agree to pay all fees and applicable taxes for your subscriptions, courses, and Consultations.
Refunds: All refund requests must comply with the Itirac Refund Policy. Refunds for course purchases or Consultations are subject to the Content Provider’s policies, as facilitated and processed by Itirac.
You agree that you are an independent contractor (or organization) operating your business through the Platform. Nothing in these Terms creates an employment, partnership, or joint venture relationship between you and Itirac.
You grant Itirac a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license (with the right to sublicense) to host, use, reproduce, distribute, and display your Content and professional profile for the purpose of operating, marketing, and promoting the Platform and the Services.
You are solely responsible for:
Legal Compliance: Ensuring your Content, Consultation services, and delivery methods comply with all applicable laws and regulations, including licensing, privacy, and consumer protection laws.
Quality and Accuracy: Ensuring all Content is accurate, up-to-date, and professionally delivered.
IP Rights: Ensuring your Content and materials do not infringe upon any third party's intellectual property rights.
Taxes: Calculating and paying all necessary sales, income, and other taxes related to the revenues earned through the Platform.
Itirac will pay you the revenue generated from your sales (less the Commission Rate and any applicable transaction fees, taxes, or refunds) as defined in your separate Service Agreement with Itirac.
The Commission Rate is the percentage Itirac retains from the sale of your course or booked Consultation.
Itirac reserves the right to hold or offset payments for refunds, chargebacks, or if we suspect a breach of these Terms or fraudulent activity.
Itirac does not screen or endorse any Content Provider or their Content/Consultations. You acknowledge that purchasing Content or Consultation services is done at your own risk.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Itirac shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, punitive, or consequential damages (including loss of data, revenue, profits, or business opportunities) arising out of or related to your use of the Services or the performance of any Content Provider.
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Itirac, its officers, directors, agents, and employees from any claim, demand, loss, damage, or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or related to:
Your Content or Consultation services.
Your breach of these Terms.
Your violation of any law or the rights of a third party (especially related to intellectual property).
These Terms shall be governed by the laws of Quebec. Any legal action will be brought exclusively in the courts located in Montreal.
