Acceptable Use Policy

1. Content you may not publish

• Anything that infringes copyright, trade mark, patent, trade secret, moral rights, or a right of publicity — including material you bought, downloaded, scraped or were sent, unless you hold the rights to republish it here.
• Anything that discloses another person’s private information without their consent, or that uses their name, likeness or voice without permission.
• Sexual content involving minors, in any form, real or synthetic. We report this to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children and to law enforcement, and terminate immediately and permanently. There is no appeal and no warning.
• Intimate images published without the consent of the person shown.
• Content that harasses, threatens, or incites violence or self-harm; or that attacks a person or group by race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, disability, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, age or immigration status.
• Content promoting terrorism or violent extremism.
• Instructions for making weapons, explosives or illegal drugs; for defeating security controls; or for committing fraud.
• Deliberately false or dangerous medical, legal, financial or safety advice presented as fact.
• Malware, exploits, phishing pages, or anything designed to compromise a device or an account.
• Content that is defamatory, or that presents fabricated statements as those of a real person or organisation.
• Content that breaches an export-control or sanctions regime that applies to you.

2. Conduct that is not allowed

• Impersonating another person, a creator, an institution, or Intelligena.
• Selling a course you have no right to sell, or reselling somebody else’s course as your own.
• Making a guarantee you cannot keep — of income, employment, a qualification, accreditation, an exam result, or a health outcome. Any claim of an outcome must be true, typical, and substantiable.
• Manipulating enrolment counts, reviews, ratings, completion figures or referral tracking, including with accounts you control.
• Fraud, money laundering, or using the payment features for anything other than a genuine sale of what was advertised.
• Circumventing a suspension or termination, including by opening a new account.
• Scraping, bulk-downloading, or accessing the platform by automated means beyond what a published API allows; probing or testing its security without written permission; or interfering with its operation or with anyone else’s use of it.
• Collecting personal data about other users beyond what your own courses require, or using data you obtained here for anything but the purpose it was given for.
• Using AI features to mark, transcribe or evaluate a person’s work without telling them, or acting on an AI output as though it were a human assessment.

3. What we do about it

We do not review content before it is published. When something is reported, or comes to our attention, we may — proportionately to what we find — take any of the following steps:

1. Ask the account holder to change or remove the material.
2. Remove or disable the material, or make it unavailable in a particular jurisdiction.
3. Unpublish a course or restrict a feature.
4. Record a strike, where the report was a copyright notice we upheld.
5. Suspend the account.
6. Terminate the account, and where appropriate the organisation with it.
7. Report to law enforcement, where the law requires it or the harm warrants it.

Except where the law, an emergency, or the risk of tipping off a wrongdoer prevents it, we tell the account holder what was removed and why, and how to respond.

4. Repeat infringers

Intelligena terminates, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of people who repeatedly infringe copyright. This is our policy under 17 U.S.C. §512(i), and it is implemented, not merely stated:

• An upheld copyright notice records a strike against the account responsible for the material.
• A strike expires twelve months after it is issued.
• A strike is withdrawn if a counter-notice runs its course and the material is restored, or if the complainant retracts the notice. A withdrawn strike stops counting, and the record that it was withdrawn is kept.
• An account holding 3 live strikes is terminated.
• We may terminate sooner where the infringement is flagrant, commercial-scale, or the account exists for it.

Terminating an account under this policy does not, by itself, cancel money already earned and owed for lawful sales; it does end access, publication and future earning.

5. Appealing a decision

If we remove your material or restrict your account and you believe we got it wrong, reply to the notice we sent you, or write to abuse@yoshuko.com with the reference number. A person who was not involved in the original decision will review it. We aim to answer within ten business days.

If your material was removed following a copyright notice, the route is a formal counter-notice rather than an appeal — see the copyright page, which explains the consequences of filing one.
