Terms of use

Hizr Academy is an online course platform built in the Kurdistan Region. Teachers record video courses, students watch them, and the site keeps each student’s place from one lesson to the next.

These terms apply to everyone who uses the site. If you do not agree with them, do not use an account here.

An account needs a real e-mail address that you can open: you sign in with it, and the six-digit code that confirms it is sent there. An address you cannot read means an account you cannot get back into.

One account belongs to one person. Keep your password to yourself; whatever is done from your account is treated as done by you. If you think someone else is in it, change your password — that signs out every other device.

A free course opens as soon as you enrol. A paid course is not sold on the site: there are no online payments here yet. Hizr Academy grants access to a paid course once it is arranged with us, and the price on a course page is what it costs, not a checkout.

Access is yours alone — to watch, not to download, copy, re-upload or share. A university’s subjects are opened by that university to its own members.

A course can change: a teacher may add lessons or correct them, and Hizr Academy may unpublish a course. A course you already have stays open to you after it leaves the catalogue.

Anyone can ask to teach, and an admin reads the application and decides. Every course is reviewed by an admin before it is published, and so is every change to a published one.

A course belongs to the teacher who made it — the video, the text and the files are theirs, and we only publish them here. What you write on the site stays yours, and we show it only where it was sent: a suggestion to the admins, an application to whoever reviews it.

The full teacher terms are on the About page.

Use the site honestly. Do not record, download or re-publish a course; do not share your account or an access link; do not upload anything unlawful, abusive or made by someone else; do not attack the site, probe it for holes, or script it to collect what is on it.

The suggestion box and the application forms reach real people. Write what you would say to them in person.

Hizr Academy may suspend an account that breaks these terms. A suspended account is signed out on every device at once and cannot sign in until it is reactivated. A suspended teacher’s courses leave the catalogue but stay open to the students who already have them.

We may also change these terms. The text on this page is always the one that applies.

If something here is unclear, or your account has been suspended, write to us.
