3. Eligibility and Account Registration

3.1 Who May Use Our Services

Our Services are intended for adults (18 years of age or older), specifically parents, guardians, and educators. The educational content is designed to help adults guide children aged 5 to 15 in developing AI literacy and critical thinking skills. Children should not register for accounts independently.

4. Memberships and Subscriptions

4.1 Free Newsletter

Anyone may subscribe to our free weekly newsletter to receive high-level AI parenting tips and updates. Newsletter subscribers do not receive access to paid member content.

4.2 Paid Membership

Paid membership grants you full access to the complete archive of articles, step-by-step parenting frameworks, the private community, and early access to app features. Paid membership is available on a Monthly or Yearly billing basis.

4.3 Seven-Day Free Trial

When you sign up for a Monthly or Yearly plan, you will not be charged for the first 7 days. During this trial period, you have full access to all Paid Member Only content. You may cancel at any time within those 7 days via your Account Portal at aipolymath.org/#/portal/account without incurring any charge.

4.4 Billing and Plan Changes

After the 7-day free trial, your chosen plan will be billed automatically at the rates published at the time of sign-up. You may upgrade from a Monthly plan to a Yearly plan at any time through your account settings to take advantage of the discounted annual rate.

You may cancel your subscription at any time directly through your Account Portal. No email request is required. Upon cancellation, your paid access will continue until the end of the current billing period. After cancellation, you will remain on the free newsletter list unless you separately choose to unsubscribe.

5. Refund Policy

Because AI Polymath offers a 7-day free trial on all Monthly and Yearly membership plans — providing full access at no charge before any payment is made — all transactions are final after the trial period ends. No refunds will be issued for charges incurred after the free trial has expired.

If you believe a charge was made in error, please contact us at aipolymath.org/contact within 14 days of the charge date.
