Terms and Conditions

Welcome to EduQarar ("the site", "we" or "us"). These terms govern your use of the site and all its services. By using the site or creating an account on it, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree to them, please do not use the site.

These terms are read together with the Privacy Policy, which explains how we collect, process and protect your personal data.

1. Definitions

• The site: the EduQarar platform and all its pages and services.
• User: anyone who browses the site or uses any of its services, with or without an account.
• Account holder: anyone who created an account on the site, whether a parent, a university student, a teacher or a representative of an educational institution.
• Educational institution: a school, university or college that has a profile on the site.
• Teacher: anyone who created a profile on the site to offer private lessons.
• Advertiser: anyone who asks to publish an advertisement or a sponsored search result on the site.

2. What the site is

2.1. EduQarar is an information platform that helps students and parents search for and compare schools, universities, colleges and teachers in Jordan.

2.2. The site is not an admission or registration body, does not represent any educational institution and does not speak on its behalf, unless clearly stated otherwise.

2.3. The site is not a party to any agreement between a user and a teacher, or between a user and an educational institution.

3. Eligibility and accounts

3.1. Only people aged 18 or older may create an account. People under 18 may not create an account on the site in any case.

3.2. If we find that an account holder is under 18, we may stop and delete the account and its data.

3.3. People under 18 may browse the public information on the site without an account.

3.4. Account holders must give correct information and keep their password secret, and are responsible for everything done through their account.

3.5. A representative of an educational institution must be authorised by the institution to manage its profile on the site. We may ask for proof of this, and refuse or cancel the request if it is not proven.

4. Accuracy of the information

4.1. We collect the information of educational institutions, such as fees, minimum admission averages and majors, from their official sources as far as possible, and show the source and the date of the last check where available.

4.2. This information may still change at any time without our knowledge. The final and binding reference is the educational institution itself. Please check with it directly before making any decision.

4.3. Phrases such as "you may be eligible" or "you are likely to be admitted" are estimates based on the available information, not a guarantee of admission.

4.4. The fees and estimated costs shown are for guidance only and may differ from the actual amounts. Discounts and scholarships are subject to the institution's own terms.

4.5. The results of the student tools on the site, such as the Tawjihi calculator and the university GPA calculator, are estimates for guidance only and do not replace official results and transcripts. Their calculations run in the user's browser, and we do not keep the marks entered.

5. Teachers and institutions are responsible for their content

5.1. Teachers and educational institutions alone are responsible for the accuracy and currency of what they publish on their profiles, including qualifications, experience, prices, fees and photos.

5.2. The site does not verify teachers' qualifications, experience or certificates. Users should check them themselves before contracting with any teacher.

5.3. Anyone who publishes content on the site confirms that they have the right to publish it, and that it does not break the law or infringe the rights of others.

6. Contacting teachers and institutions

6.1. The site offers ways to get in touch, including internal messages, teachers' phone numbers and registration and contact request forms.

6.2. Any agreement on a lesson, price, time or payment method is made directly between the user and the teacher or institution, who alone are responsible for it. The site does not take part in it and does not guarantee it.

6.3. We advise care when meeting anyone or paying them, and taking the usual precautions.

7. Prohibited conduct

Users must not:

• send messages that are offensive, annoying, threatening, harassing or otherwise inappropriate;
• impersonate any person or institution, or give false or misleading information;
• use contact details available on the site for unsolicited marketing, or collect them by any means;
• copy the content or data of the site by automated means (scraping), or republish it without our written permission;
• attempt to hack or disrupt the site, or access anything they are not allowed to access;
• use the site in any way that breaks the laws in force in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan.

8. Advertising and sponsored results

8.1. The site shows advertisements and sponsored search results, clearly marked as advertising.

8.2. Advertising does not affect the order of the ordinary search results. A sponsored result appears only in its own place, and only when it matches what the user is searching for.

8.3. Every advertisement is reviewed by us before it is published, and we may refuse or stop it without giving reasons.

8.4. Advertisers alone are responsible for the content, accuracy and lawfulness of their advertisements.

8.5. We do not sell users' data or share it with advertisers. Advertisers see totals only, such as the number of views and clicks.

9. Pro profiles and paid services

9.1. The site offers a free standard profile, and a Pro profile with extra features.

9.2. We may give a Pro profile free of charge for a set period, shown to the profile owner in their dashboard. When it ends, the profile goes back to the standard profile automatically, and its data and content are kept.

9.3. The standard profile stays free, always. Some additional services may become paid in the future. We will announce this in advance, and no fees will be charged without the account holder's agreement.

9.4. When paid services start, we will add a clause on prices, payment and refunds to these terms, and tell account holders about it before it takes effect.

10. Our rights in running the site

10.1. We may, without prior notice, freeze or delete any profile or account, hide it from search results, or delete any content or advertisement, if it breaks these terms or the law, or harms users or the site.

10.2. We may change the site and its services, or stop any of them temporarily or permanently.

11. Deleting your account

11.1. Account holders may delete their account at any time.

11.2. On deletion, the account stops at once and the profile disappears from the site, then the personal data is deleted for good within 30 days.

11.3. Messages the account holder sent stay with the other person in the conversation, under the name "Deleted user".

11.4. For more details, see the Privacy Policy.

12. Intellectual property

12.1. The design, logo, software and data organisation of the site belong to EduQarar, and may not be copied or used without written permission.

12.2. Content that users publish, such as photos and texts, remains theirs. By publishing it on the site, they give us a non-exclusive, free permission to show it on the site, in search results and in sharing links, for as long as it is published.

12.3. The names and logos of educational institutions belong to their owners, and are shown on the site only to identify them.

13. Limits of liability

13.1. The site provides its information to help users search and decide, and the final decision remains the user's alone, whether about registering with an institution or dealing with a teacher.

13.2. The site is not responsible for:

• any error in information taken from institutions or published by teachers and institutions;
• any dispute between a user and a teacher or institution;
• the content of advertisements;
• any indirect damage resulting from the use of the site.

This does not apply where the law expressly provides otherwise.

13.3. We aim for the site to work at all times and without errors, but we do not guarantee this. The site may stop temporarily for maintenance or for reasons beyond our control.

14. External links

The site may contain links to other sites, such as the official sites of institutions, Google Maps or YouTube. We are not responsible for the content or policies of these sites.

15. Changes to these terms

15.1. We may change these terms. The version number and its effective date are shown at the top of the page.

15.2. If we make a material change, we will tell account holders through the site or by email before it takes effect.

15.3. If you keep using the site after a change takes effect, you agree to it.

16. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, and the Jordanian courts have jurisdiction over any dispute arising from them.
