These terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and steady-return Advisory Services Ltd, a company registered in England and Wales (Company Number 08234567).

Our Services

steady-return provides educational platform advisory services, including consultations, platform analysis, and recommendations. Our services are designed to help individuals and organisations make informed decisions about educational platforms and learning programmes.

We provide guidance based on our research and expertise, but we do not guarantee specific outcomes from using any educational platform. Success depends on many factors including individual effort, aptitude, and circumstances.

Service Engagement

When you engage our paid services, you enter into a separate service agreement that governs the specific terms of that engagement. These Terms of Use apply alongside any such agreement, with the service agreement taking precedence in case of conflict.

Payment terms, cancellation policies, and service-specific conditions are detailed in individual service agreements provided before engagement begins.
