Publisher Terms

1          GENERAL

1.1        A person becomes a “Publisher” for the purposes of these Publisher Terms upon completing and submitting the Publisher Registration Form and Learnt receiving the first payment of the Publisher Annual Contribution in accordance with these Publisher Terms.

1.2        A person may only be a “Publisher” if they are:

(a)         a User who is 13 years of age or older, and where that User is aged 13 to 17, that User has a parent or guardian who has agreed to supervise and accept responsibility and liability for that User’s participation as a “Publisher” on the Learnt Platform; or

(b)         an Enterprise on the Learnt Platform.

If a person ceases to be a User or Enterprise, that person cannot be a “Publisher” and these Publisher Terms will terminate in accordance with clause 17.4.

1.3        Upon becoming a “Publisher” pursuant to these Publisher Terms, the Publisher agrees to, and must comply with the:

(a)        Publisher Terms – This explains what the Publisher can and cannot do in relation to publishing Courses in the Learnt Marketplace, and details how the Publisher may earn Monthly Revenue Share in respect of Courses and Playlists;

(b).      Acceptable Use Policy – This explains what the Publisher can and cannot do in relation to using the Learnt System, Learnt Platform and Learnt Marketplace;

(c)       Privacy Policy – This explains what the Publisher and Learnt can and cannot do in relation to Personal Information collected, disclosed, used and/or otherwise stored on the Learnt System; and

(d)       List of Common Definitions – This provides definitions that are commonly used in various Learnt documentation, including but not limited to this document. In this document, unless the context otherwise requires in this document, or as otherwise specified in this document, the definitions in the list of Common Definitions will apply. If there is any inconsistency between this document and the List of Common Definitions, this document will prevail to the extent of any inconsistency.

1.4        These Publisher Terms act separately and independently to the User Terms and the Enterprise Licence Agreement. The Publisher Terms are however conditional on the Publisher being a User or an Enterprise. The Publisher cannot be a “Publisher” unless the Publisher is at the same time, a User or an Enterprise. A person can however be a User or an Enterprise and not be a Publisher.

1.5       The Publisher acknowledges and agrees that the User Terms or Enterprise Licence Agreement which the Publisher has entered into, continues to apply notwithstanding these Publisher Terms. If there is an inconsistency between any of these documents, the Publisher Terms will prevail to the extent of any inconsistency.

Learnt is only liable to pay, in respect of the Sub-licence of a Course or Playlist, the Monthly Revenue Share, and no greater amount, subject to and in accordance with, clause 10.2; and

(d)         the payment of an amount in respect of Monthly Revenue Share for a Month of an Access Period of a Sub-licence of a Course or Playlist does not mean that the Publisher is “entitled” to Monthly Revenue Share in respect of that Month, and Learnt retains the right to determine that the Publisher is not “entitled” to Monthly Revenue Share in respect of that Month and that the payment has been made incorrectly and/or mistakenly, and to require the repayment of such overpayment pursuant to clause 10.7 and 10.8.

10.10   The Publisher acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding any other provision of these Publisher Terms, Learnt may from time to time offer a User or Enterprise a free trial or other special promotion or discount in order to encourage the sale of a Sub-licence of a Course or Playlist.

(a)         determine the Total Content Fee for a Course;

(b)         adjust the Total Content Fee for a Course by any Adjustments in order to determine the Net Total Content Fee for that Course;

(c)         determine the Publisher Revenue Share as follows:

(ii)         for a Sub-licence of a Playlist:

A.          Learnt will multiply the Net Total Content Fee for that Playlist by the Publisher Percentage in order to determine the Playlist Revenue Share for that Sub-licence (being the anticipated maximum amount that all of the Playlist Publishers for that Playlist as a whole may become entitled to over the Access Period of the Sub-licence); and

B.          Learnt will multiply the Playlist Revenue Share by the Publisher Playlist Percentage. This will determine the Publisher Revenue Share for that Sub-licence (being the anticipated maximum amount that the Publisher may become entitled to over the Access Period of the Sub-licence);
