Terms of Service

Last updated: 12 July 2026

Welcome to Projectunite Scholar. These terms govern your use of projectunite-scholar.org, including member accounts, the scholars platform, the learning portal, events, volunteering, fundraising, and donation services (together, the "Services"). By using the Services you agree to these terms.

1. Who we are

Projectunite Scholar is an educational initiative based in Tanzania working to make quality education accessible across East Africa through mentorship, scholarship guidance, learning resources, and community programs.

2. Your account

• You must provide accurate information when creating an account and keep it up to date.
• You are responsible for keeping your password confidential and for activity on your account.
• If you are under 18, use the Services with the knowledge and consent of a parent or guardian.
• We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms or put the community at risk.

3. Membership

• Membership of the scholars platform is free and grants access to member features such as profiles, programs, courses, XP, and certificates.
• Membership levels or badges recognize participation; they do not create an employment, agency, or partnership relationship with Projectunite.
• Certificates document completion of our learning content and are verifiable through our platform; they are not accredited academic qualifications unless expressly stated.

4. Community conduct

Our community is built on respect. When using the Services you agree not to:

• Harass, abuse, or discriminate against other members;
• Post unlawful, misleading, or plagiarized content (including competition entries);
• Attempt to access other members' accounts or data;
• Interfere with, overload, or disrupt the Services;
• Use the Services for commercial solicitation without our written consent.

5. Donations and fundraising

• Donations support our educational mission and are used at our discretion across programs unless a campaign states otherwise.
• Payment processing is provided by third-party providers subject to their own terms.
• Except where required by law, donations are non-refundable; if you believe a donation was made in error, contact us promptly and we will work with you.

6. Your content

You retain ownership of content you submit (essays, testimonials, profile information). By submitting it you grant Projectunite a non-exclusive, worldwide licence to host and display it for the purpose of running the Services and, with your consent, showcasing our programs.

7. Our content

The Projectunite Scholar name, logo, website design, learning materials, and publications (including the Dare To Dream Big guidebook) are protected by copyright and other laws. You may view and share them for personal, non-commercial purposes with attribution; any other use requires our permission.

8. Disclaimers

The Services are provided "as is". We work hard to keep information accurate — especially scholarship deadlines and program details — but we cannot guarantee completeness, and we are not responsible for decisions made by third-party institutions. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Projectunite disclaims all warranties, and our total liability for any claim arising from the Services is limited to the amount (if any) you paid us in the twelve months before the claim.

9. Changes

We may update these terms as the platform evolves. Material changes will be posted on this page with an updated date; continued use of the Services after changes take effect constitutes acceptance.

10. Governing law & contact

These terms are governed by the laws of the United Republic of Tanzania. Questions? Reach us through our contact page or by phone at +255 784 953 866.
