Last updated: March 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to ImmerseMe. These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern access to and use of the ImmerseMe platform, including our website, applications, content, and services (collectively, the “Platform”).

We design ImmerseMe to meet the expectations of educators, institutions, and learners globally, with a strong focus on safety, privacy, and educational impact.

These Terms are designed to be transparent, fair, and aligned with global education and data protection standards.

By accessing or using the Platform, you agree to these Terms.

If you are using ImmerseMe on behalf of an educational institution, organisation, or other entity (“Institution”), you confirm you are authorised to bind that entity.

2. Who These Terms Apply To

These Terms apply to:

  • Individual users

  • Teachers and educators

  • Students

  • Educational institutions (K–12, higher education, vocational)

  • Organisations using ImmerseMe for training

Where a student is under 18, the Institution or parent/guardian is responsible for consent and supervision.

3. The Service

ImmerseMe provides an immersive language learning platform using video, AI-powered conversation tools, and learning analytics.

We may update, improve, or modify features over time to enhance the learning experience.

4. Accounts and Access

You agree to:

  • Provide accurate and complete information

  • Keep login credentials secure

  • Use accounts only as intended

Institutions are responsible for:

  • Ensuring authorised use

5. Acceptable Use

You must comply with our Acceptable Use Policy.

You must not:

  • Misuse or interfere with the Platform

  • Attempt unauthorised access

  • Upload unlawful or harmful content

  • Use automation, scraping, or extraction tools

We may suspend or terminate access for violations.

6. Educational Use and Institutional Responsibilities

ImmerseMe is designed for educational use.

Institutions are responsible for:

ImmerseMe provides tools to support learning but does not guarantee specific educational outcomes.

7. Access, Licensing and Payments

7.1 Trials

We may offer free trials with limited features, content, or duration.

7.2 Licensing Model

Access to the Platform is provided through licensing arrangements agreed with the customer (e.g. via quote, order form, or agreement).

Licensing may include:

  • Per-student licences, assigned to individual named learners; or

  • Device-based licences, assigned to a specific device and usable by multiple users on that device

ImmerseMe does not provide unrestricted “site-wide” licences unless explicitly agreed in writing.

7.3 Licence Use and Eligibility

Customers are responsible for ensuring licences are used in accordance with their intended model.

  • Per-student licences are intended for use by a single named learner

  • Device-based licences may be shared across multiple users on a designated device

Certain Platform features — including competitions, rankings, and individual performance tracking — require licences to be assigned to a named individual user.

  • Device-based or shared licences are not eligible for participation in individual competitions

  • To participate, a licence must be assigned to a specific student account

  • ImmerseMe may allow temporary reassignment of licences to support participation in events or competitions

ImmerseMe reserves the right to determine eligibility for competitions and may restrict participation where licence usage does not meet these requirements.

7.4 Billing

Fees are agreed separately (e.g. via quote, order form, or agreement).

Payment must be made in accordance with the agreed terms.
