Terms of Service

We may, from time to time, modify these Terms. Please check the updated terms of service at www.serosoft.com/terms-of-service or www.academiaerp.com/terms-of-service periodically. If you do not agree to, or cannot comply with, the modified Terms, you must stop using the “Service” and “Sites”. The updated Terms will take effect upon their posting and will apply on a going-forward basis, unless otherwise provided in a notice to you, and except as provided in the Mandatory Arbitration and Class Action Waiver section of these Terms. Your continued use of the Service and Websites after any such update constitutes your acceptance of such changes.

Violation of any of the terms below will result in the termination of your Account. While the service provider prohibits such conduct and Content on the Service, you understand and agree that the service provider cannot be responsible for the Content posted on the Service and you nonetheless may be exposed to such materials. You agree to use the Service at your own risk.

Serosoft and Academia have four different types of users depending on the product/services used:

We call users of the Websites “Site Visitors.”

We call users who use the Academia ERP service which is further classified as 

  1. “Students” at our customer which is an educational institution.
  2. “Parents” of these students 
  3. “Employees” of our customer which is an educational institution.

The Service features and functionalities available to these users are determined by the subscription tier and the specific terms agreed to between Serosoft and the customer that entered into a separate agreement that governs delivery, access, and use of the Service (the “Customer Agreement”).

We refer to these types of users collectively as “Users” or “you” for purposes of these User Terms of Service (the “Terms”). Regardless of what type of User you are, these Terms create a legal agreement directly between you and Serosoft and explain the rules governing the use of the Service and Websites.

You must provide your legal full name, a valid email address, and any other information requested by your institution (our Customer) in order to complete the signup process.

Your login may only be used by one user – a single login shared by multiple people is not permitted. You may create separate logins for as many users as your plan allows.

You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account and password. The service provider cannot and will not be liable for any loss or damage from your failure to comply with this security obligation.
