Terms & Conditions

Last updated: 20 August 2026  ·  Governing law: Republic of South Africa

1. About these terms

"We", "us" and "our" mean SimplyLearnStuff. "You" means the person or business using this website or engaging our services. By browsing this website, submitting an enquiry, or accepting a quotation, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

Where we issue a separate written quotation, proposal or service agreement, that document governs the specific work. If it conflicts with these terms, the signed document wins.

2. Our services

We provide, among other things:

• Microsoft 365 e-learning delivered through our online Learning Portal;
• data analysis and dashboard building in Excel and Power BI;
• website and application development;
• live streaming services;
• podcast studio hire.

SimplyLearnStuff is an independent business. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or an authorised training partner of Microsoft Corporation. "Microsoft", "Microsoft 365", "Excel", "Word", "PowerPoint", "Outlook", "Teams" and "Power BI" are trademarks of Microsoft Corporation and are used here only to describe the subject matter of our training. Our courses are our own material.

3. Quotations, orders and pricing

• Prices shown or discussed are quoted in South African Rand unless stated otherwise.
• A quotation is valid for 30 days from its date unless it says otherwise.
• Work begins once you accept the quotation in writing and any required deposit is received.
• Prices exclude third-party costs — domain registration, hosting, licences, stock media, paid plugins and similar — unless the quotation expressly includes them.
• Work outside the agreed scope is quoted separately before we do it.

4. Payment

• Invoices are payable by the due date shown on the invoice.
• Development projects generally require a deposit before work starts, with the balance due on completion and before final handover or deployment.
• Studio hire and live streaming bookings are payable in advance unless agreed otherwise in writing.
• We may suspend work or access to a delivered service while an account is overdue.
• Ownership of custom-developed work transfers to you only once the account is paid in full.

5. Your responsibilities

• Provide accurate information, content and access when we ask for it. Delays on your side move the timeline on ours.
• Make sure you have the rights to any text, images, audio, video, logos or data you give us to use.
• Keep your own account credentials secure, including your Learning Portal login.
• Comply with the law when using anything we build for you or teach you.

6. The Learning Portal

• Course access is granted to a named individual and may not be shared, resold or transferred.
• Course material remains our intellectual property. You may use it to learn; you may not redistribute, republish or run it as your own training.
• We may update, replace or retire course content to keep it accurate.
• We may suspend or terminate access where these terms are breached, without refund.
• We aim for continuous availability but cannot guarantee uninterrupted access; maintenance and outages happen.

7. Studio hire and live streaming

• Bookings are confirmed once payment or a written confirmation is received.
• Cancellations more than 48 hours before the booking may be rescheduled at no charge. Later cancellations may forfeit the fee, at our discretion.
• You are responsible for damage caused to studio equipment by you or your guests.
• Live streaming depends on connectivity, venue power and third-party platforms. We will use reasonable skill and care, but we cannot guarantee against failures outside our control.
• You are responsible for obtaining any consents needed from people appearing in a stream or recording.

8. Development work, revisions and handover

• Each project includes a stated number of revision rounds. Further rounds are quoted separately.
• After handover, a website or app is yours to run. Ongoing maintenance is available as a separate arrangement and is not automatic.
• We use third-party services, frameworks and AI-assisted tooling in our work. Those components remain subject to their own licences.
• We do not guarantee any particular search-engine ranking, traffic level or commercial result.

9. Intellectual property

All content on this website — text, layout, graphics, the SimplyLearnStuff name and logo — is our property or used under licence, and may not be copied or reused without our written permission. On payment in full, you own the custom deliverables we produced for you; we retain ownership of our underlying tools, templates, know-how and course material, and may reuse those on other projects.

Unless you ask us in writing not to, we may reference the work in our portfolio and marketing.

10. Third-party services

Our website links to our own subdomains and to external services. We are not responsible for the content, availability or practices of any third-party site, and a link is not an endorsement.

11. Liability

We provide our services with reasonable skill and care. To the fullest extent permitted by law:

• Our total liability arising from any engagement is limited to the amount you actually paid us for that engagement.
• We are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, including loss of profit, revenue, data, goodwill or business opportunity.
• We are not liable for failures caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including connectivity failures, load-shedding, third-party platform outages and force majeure events.

Nothing in these terms limits any right you have under the Consumer Protection Act, 68 of 2008, where it applies to you.

12. Cancellation and refunds

• Deposits cover work already scheduled and committed and are generally non-refundable.
• If you cancel mid-project, you remain liable for work completed and third-party costs already incurred.
• Digital course access, once granted, is not refundable — ask us for details before you buy if you are unsure whether a course suits you.

13. Privacy

Our handling of personal information is set out in our Privacy Policy, which forms part of these terms.

14. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. The version published on this page at the time you engage us is the version that applies to that engagement.

15. Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa. If a dispute arises, both parties agree to attempt to resolve it in good faith by discussion first. Failing that, the dispute falls under the jurisdiction of the South African courts.
