  6. DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES

    StudyHQ is a technology-enabled career discovery and guidance platform for students, parents, and educational institutions. We leverage psychometric assessments, AI-assisted guidance (including our AI assistant Bixa), a curated learning and preparation library (Drona), and expert counselling to help users make informed career decisions.

    Our services are not limited to psychometric assessments, career counselling and guidance, stream and course recommendations, college shortlisting, study abroad guidance, Statement of Purpose (SOP) assistance, scholarship guidance, progress tracking, and project-based extracurricular programmes, as may be provided from time to time.

    By entering into the present agreement, you accept that you are using the services rendered at StudyHQ at your sole discretion, without any undue influence from StudyHQ, and at your sole responsibility (under the supervision of a guardian in the case of minors).

    You further agree to ensure that you avail the services with due care and due diligence and as per the terms and conditions of this EULA and the respective service you are availing.

    StudyHQ provides guidance and support tools, but final decisions regarding career, education, college, or any other matter always remain with the User. StudyHQ does not guarantee outcomes such as admissions, placements, examination results, scholarship awards, or career success.

  7. FEES

    StudyHQ shall charge fees for the services provided as per the structure published on the Website. By using the services which are subject to payment, you accept to pay for the same before using the services.

    You further undertake not to raise any dispute regarding the fee charged for the services in any manner whatsoever, as you have agreed to the same out of free will and without any undue influence.

    You further undertake that you have read the Terms and Conditions of the Payment that are prompted when you move towards payment of the paid services and have accepted the same before making the payment.

    StudyHQ uses third-party payment providers (including but not limited to Razorpay) to receive payments from users. StudyHQ is not responsible for delays, erroneous transaction execution, or cancellation of orders due to payment issues at the third-party provider's end. StudyHQ takes utmost care to work with trusted third-party payment providers but does not control their systems, processes, technology, and workflows, and therefore cannot be held responsible for any fault at the end of payment providers.

    The fees to be charged by StudyHQ from users shall be decided solely by StudyHQ, and the users shall have no right or say to interfere in the same. StudyHQ reserves the right to revise pricing at any time, provided that existing active subscriptions shall be honoured at the originally agreed price until the end of their current term.

  8. TAXES

    You agree to bear all applicable taxes, charges, and cess levied on the services being rendered to you as notified by the Central or State Government from time to time, unless already included in the price offered. Goods and Services Tax (GST) shall be applied as per prevailing rates.

  9. REFUND POLICY

    StudyHQ operates on a strict no-refund policy. The services we render, including but not limited to career assessments, psychometric evaluations, counselling sessions, career reports, roadmaps, Statement of Purpose (SOP) assistance, scholarship guidance, and access to our AI assistant Bixa and learning library Drona, act as bona fide guidance to the User and are rendered as soon as availed. Therefore, there is no provision for the refund of fees paid by the User.

    The User is deemed to have understood and accepted that once the fee is paid to StudyHQ for the services availed, there shall be no refund of the said fees under any circumstances. This includes, without limitation, cases where:

    • The User changes their mind after purchase;
    • The User does not utilise the services within the subscription period;
    • The User is dissatisfied with the outcome, recommendations, or guidance provided;
    • The student does not secure admission, scholarship, or any other outcome;
    • The subscription is cancelled or the account is terminated due to violation of these Terms.

    Subscriptions are non-transferable between users or student profiles. A subscription purchased for one student cannot be used by another student, including siblings. Parents with multiple children must purchase separate subscriptions for each child.

    Narrow exceptions: The only exceptions to the above no-refund policy are:

    • Duplicate payments: If you are accidentally charged twice for the same service, the duplicate amount will be refunded after verification.
    • Verified technical failure: If a payment is successfully deducted but the service is not activated due to a verified technical failure on StudyHQ's side, and we are unable to activate the service or provide an equivalent alternative, the amount will be refunded.
    • Legally required refunds: Where applicable Indian law mandates a refund, StudyHQ will comply with the same.

    In all exception cases, the User must contact [email protected] within seven (7) days of the payment with relevant order details and proof. Refund requests beyond this window will not be entertained.

    Chargebacks initiated by the User through their bank or card provider in violation of this policy will be contested by StudyHQ with relevant documentation, and may result in immediate termination of the User's account.

    For institutional contracts (schools, colleges, coaching centres), refund terms are governed by the specific terms recorded in the signed agreement between StudyHQ and the institution, and not by this clause.

  10. TERM AND TERMINATION OF THE CONTRACT

    There shall be no contract between StudyHQ and the User until the services are availed by the User against consideration. Access to the free portion of the Website is only for the welfare of the User and does not give rise to any contract between the User and StudyHQ in any manner.

    The contract against consideration for the services shall be strictly in terms of the services availed and shall end as soon as the services are rendered or the subscription term expires, whichever is earlier.

    StudyHQ is entitled to terminate the contract at all times and with immediate effect (by disabling your use of the Website and the Service) if you:

    • Violate or breach any term of this EULA;
    • In the opinion of StudyHQ, misuse the Website or Service;
