Platform Terms of Use

1 Operator and agreement

TestDoodle is provided by Mbali Expeditions trading as TestDoodle Pty (Ltd), registration number [registration number to be confirmed], at [registered address to be confirmed]. These Terms govern your use of https://testdoodle.lovable.app and its related services. Effective date: 6 November 2026. By expressly accepting these Terms through an authorised account setup, you agree to them. If you act for an organisation, you confirm that you have authority to bind it within the agreed scope.

2 Institutional and student use

An institution's signed order and data-processing agreement may add terms for its service. The data-processing agreement controls on personal-data processing conflicts; mandatory law always prevails. Students must follow the institution's authorised assessment instructions. A student who cannot independently enter a contract participates through the applicable institution or guardian arrangement; these Terms do not replace legally required permissions.

3 Accounts and access

Provide accurate necessary account information, protect your credentials and use only authorised roles. Do not share lecturer / teacher or administrator accounts. Notify mbaliexpeditions@gmail.com of suspected misuse. We may verify institutional authority and restrict access where reasonably needed to protect information or investigate misuse. A test code does not grant access to another person's results or restricted records.

4 Permitted use

Use the service for authorised teaching, learning, assessment and administration. Do not access other users' information without authority, impersonate another person, alter marks improperly, distribute malware, overload the service, evade access controls, or upload unlawful or infringing material. Report a security issue responsibly to mbaliexpeditions@gmail.com; do not exploit it or expose student information.

5 Ownership and limited permission

Users and their respective rights holders retain ownership of the content they provide. You confirm that you have the rights or lawful authority needed to submit and use it. You grant us a nonexclusive permission to host, copy, transmit, process and display that content only as needed to provide the requested service, follow authorised institutional instructions and meet applicable legal obligations. This permission does not transfer ownership or permit unrelated commercial reuse.

Our original platform materials are owned or licensed by us. Third-party materials remain subject to their owners' rights and applicable licences. You may not commercially exploit protected platform materials beyond the permission given by these Terms or law.

6 Rights complaints

Send a rights complaint to mbaliexpeditions@gmail.com, identifying the protected work, the disputed material or location, your authority to report it and your contact details. We assess complaints and may restrict or remove material as appropriate. We may seek further information and allow a response where permitted. Our use of development or AI tools does not remove our responsibilities concerning third-party rights.

7 Assessment and integrity information

Automated marking and integrity indicators support assessment; they do not guarantee accuracy, originality or prevention of misconduct. Similarity and AI indicators measure different matters and may require contextual interpretation. An authorised lecturer / teacher or institution remains responsible for reviewing evidence, confirming academic decisions and providing its applicable response or appeal procedure. Provisional results are labelled until confirmed.

8 Third-party integrations

Integrations such as Turnitin operate only when enabled under a valid agreement and subject to their applicable terms, permissions and technical limits. Required provider notices or user terms are presented separately. Features may differ by institution, licence, language, file or assessment type. We do not imply affiliation, endorsement or certification beyond the permissions actually granted.

9 Fees and introductory offers

Before a paid purchase, we disclose the plan, price, currency, taxes, included limits, billing interval and any renewal/cancellation conditions. A free period does not by itself authorise a later charge. Any automatic renewal requires a clear separate purchase agreement and a usable cancellation method. Promotional conditions are shown before enrolment and existing commitments are honoured. Statutory cancellation and refund rights remain unaffected.

10 Service availability and account closure

We aim to operate the service reliably but cannot promise uninterrupted availability or error-free automated outputs. We provide reasonable notice of planned material changes where practicable and preserve applicable contractual and statutory obligations. If an integration is unavailable, we identify that limitation rather than invent a result. Institutions must maintain appropriate assessment continuity arrangements.

We may proportionately suspend access for material misuse, security risks, unlawful activity or failure to meet agreed payment terms. Where reasonably practicable, we explain the reason and allow correction before suspension. You or your authorised institution may close an account by contacting mbaliexpeditions@gmail.com. Data export, retention and deletion follow the Privacy Notice and institutional agreement. Suspension does not permit unrelated use of student records.

11 Responsibilities and limits

Each party remains responsible for its own applicable legal obligations. Nothing in these Terms excludes liability or rights that cannot lawfully be excluded, including mandatory consumer protections. We do not guarantee that content, an AI output or a generated asset is free of third-party rights. Any additional commercial limitation of liability or indemnity must be expressly agreed in an institution's contract and reviewed for enforceability; it is not imposed on students through a generic disclaimer.

12 Changes and disputes

We publish revised Terms with a version and effective date and give reasonable notice of material changes. We obtain renewed acceptance where legally required. New terms do not retrospectively remove accrued rights. These Terms are governed by [governing law to be confirmed], with disputes addressed through [court or dispute venue to be confirmed], subject to mandatory consumer rights that apply in your place of residence.
