Payments, Credits, and Refunds

When you make a payment for a course or any Services, you agree to use a valid payment method. If you aren’t happy with your course, Ronald Kaunda offers a 10-day refund or credit for most course purchases. Refund cannot be given after a 10-day refund period. You agree to pay the fees for courses that you purchase, and you authorize us to charge your debit or credit card or process other means of payment. When you make a purchase, you agree not to use an invalid or unauthorized payment method. If your payment method fails and you still get access to the course you are enrolling in, you agree to pay us the corresponding fees within five (5) days of notification from us. We reserve the right to disable access to any course for which we have not received adequate payment.

If the course you purchased is not what you were expecting, you can request, within 10 days of your purchase of the course, that Ronald Kaunda apply a refund to your account. 30% of the amount paid shall be deducted from your payment. We will only refund you 70% if you are eligible for refund. We reserve the right to apply your refund as a refund credit or a refund to your original payment method, at our discretion, depending on capabilities of our payment processing partners and other factors. No refund is due to you if you request it after the 10-day guarantee time limit has passed. However, if a course you previously purchased is disabled for legal or policy reasons, you are entitled to a refund beyond this 10-day limit. Ronald Kaunda also reserves the right to refund students beyond the 10-day limit in cases of suspected or confirmed account fraud.

At our discretion, if we believe you are abusing our refund policy, such as if you’ve consumed a significant portion (20%) of a course that you want to refund or if you’ve previously refunded a course, we reserve the right to deny your refund, ban your account, and/or restrict all future use of the Services.

Binding Individual Arbitration

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT. THE ARBITRATION PROCEEDINGS IN THIS SECTION WILL BE CONDUCTED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS ONLY.

Arbitration is an alternative dispute-resolution procedure that allows us to resolve issues without the formality of going to court. If you live in Zambia or another jurisdiction which allows you to agree to arbitration, you and Ronald Kaunda agree to arbitrate all Disputes (defined below) regardless of whether the Dispute is based in contract, statute, regulation, ordinance, tort (including fraud, misrepresentation, fraudulent inducement, or negligence), or any other legal or equitable theory, except that each party retains the right: (a) to bring an individual action in small claims court and (b) to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property rights.

In the event of any dispute, controversy, or difference, arising among or out of, or in relation to, or in connection with the interpretation or performance of this Agreement or any of the terms hereof, or a breach hereof (“Dispute”), the parties hereto shall promptly conduct informal discussions and negotiations in good faith with a view to resolve such Dispute effecting as nearly as possible the intent and purposes of this Agreement. Any resolution of such Dispute shall be set forth in a writing signed by the parties.

If such Dispute cannot be satisfactorily resolved by the Parties themselves through friendly consultation within a period of thirty (30) calendar days after notice by you to Ronald Kaunda of a Dispute, you or Ronald Kaunda may commence an arbitration in accordance with this Agreement.

The arbitration shall be initiated and conducted according to the Zambian laws guiding such arbitrations including but not limited to small claims court. The place of arbitration will be in any courts of law in Lusaka. The language to be used in the arbitral proceedings will be Nyanja, Bemba, English or any other Zambian languages. You and Ronald Kaunda agree that whether a dispute is subject to arbitration under this Agreement will be determined by the arbitrator rather than a court. Any decision or award will include a written statement stating the decision of each claim and the basis for the award, including the arbitrator’s essential factual and legal findings and conclusions. Judgment upon the decision or award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

Ronald Kaunda will pay its arbitration costs as required by the Arbitration Rules and, in the event that you are able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, we will pay as much of your arbitration filing and hearing fees as the arbitrator deems is necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive as compared to the cost of litigation. Each side shall pay his, her, or its own attorneys’ fees and costs unless the claim(s) at issue permit the prevailing party to be paid its fees and/or litigation costs, in which case the arbitrator shall award fees or costs as required by the applicable law.

This Binding Individual Arbitration section survives any termination of this Agreement. Further, although we may revise this Agreement, Privacy Policy, or other related agreements at our discretion, we not have the right to alter this agreement to arbitrate or the rules specified herein with respect to any Dispute once that Dispute has accrued. If any part of this Binding Individual Arbitration section is deemed invalid, unenforceable, or illegal, then the balance of this arbitration provision shall remain in effect and be construed in accordance with its terms as if the invalid, unenforceable, or illegal provision had not been included.

Class Action Waiver.

THE ARBITRATION PROCEEDINGS DESCRIBED ABOVE IN PREVIOUS SECTION OF THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE CONDUCTED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS ONLY. Neither You nor Ronald Kaunda shall be entitled to join or consolidate disputes by or against other individuals or entities, or to arbitrate any dispute in a representative capacity, including, without limitation, as a representative member of a class or in a private attorney general capacity, in connection with any Dispute. Further, unless both you and we agree, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claim. The arbitrator may award any individual relief or individual remedies that are permitted by applicable law, but to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, may not award relief against Ronald Kaunda respecting any person other than you.

Your 30-Day Right to Opt Out

You have the right to opt out of and not to be bound by the Binding Individual Arbitration of section 19 and Class Action Waiver of section 20 of this Agreement. To exercise this right, you must send written notice of your decision to contact page on Ronald Kaunda.

Your notice must include your name, mailing address, date you first purchased the Subscription Service and/or Content, and state that you do not wish to resolve disputes with us through arbitration. To be effective, this notice must be postmarked or deposited within 30 days of the date on which you first purchased the Subscription Service and/or Content unless a longer period is required by applicable law; otherwise you will be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with this Agreement. 

You are responsible for ensuring that we receive your opt-out notice, so you may wish to send it by a means that provides for a delivery receipt. If you opt out of these arbitration provisions, we will similarly not be bound by them with respect to Disputes with you.

Miscellaneous

WAIVER: Failure of Ronald Kaunda to enforce at any time or for any period of time any of the provisions hereof shall not be construed to be a waiver of such provision or our right to enforce each such provision and no waiver, if granted, shall be continuing. No waiver of any term or condition of this Agreement shall be valid or binding on us unless the same shall have been set forth in a written document, specifically referring to this Agreement and duly signed by Ronald Kaunda.

ENTIRE AGREEMENT: This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement between you and us with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes and replaces any and every other prior or contemporaneous agreement, understanding or negotiation that may have existed between you and us to the extent that any such Agreement relates to the subject matter hereof.

SEVERABILITY: If, but only to the extent that, any provision of this Agreement is declared or found to be illegal, unenforceable, or void, then the parties shall be relieved of all obligations arising under that provision, it being the intent that this Agreement will be deemed amended by modifying the provision to the extent necessary to make it legal and enforceable while preserving its intent. If that is not possible, it shall be substituted with another provision that is legal and enforceable and achieves the same objective. If the remainder of this Agreement is not affected and is capable of substantial performance, then the remainder shall be enforced to the extent permitted by law.
