Terms & Conditions
Last updated: November 7, 2024
Welcome to SupertutorTV, a product of Supertutor Media, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, products, and affiliates, “SupertutorTV” or “Supertutor” or “Supertutor Media” or “we” or “us”). By visiting supertutortv.com (the “Site”), you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions. We reserve the right to change these Terms and Conditions at any time and will make the most recent version available on the Site. By using this Site and continuing to use the Site after any modifications, you agree to the terms and to be bound by any such changes.
(“Supertutor Media” or “We”) provides this Site on the following terms and conditions to each visitor, regardless of whether the visitor has an account, whether that account is paid, and whether their use of Supertutor Media is through a parent, school, or other party. Please read these Terms of Service for All Visitors (“Terms” or “AVT”) carefully before using this Site, registering for its services or purchasing any of its products. By using this Site in any capacity, you agree to these Terms; if you do not agree to these Terms, you may not use this Site.
Your continuing use of this Site constitutes your acceptance of any modifications, revisions or updates to the Terms, all of which shall become effective. You agree that your interaction with the Site is solely with Supertutor Media, Inc. and none of the managers, shareholders, employees, or workers directly, and indemnify all parties other than Supertutor Media, Inc. from lawsuits and other disputes. You agree that if you had previous relationships with any parties above other than Supertutor Media, Inc. in use of the Site, that your continued use gives consent for that relationship to be transferred to Supertutor Media, Inc.
Personal Use Only: This Site is for your personal use only. Commercial use of the Site or of any Site content is prohibited.
Operation of the Website & Course Platform
Supertutor will use reasonable commercial efforts to keep this Site available for access on a 24 hour a day, seven day a week basis, subject to scheduled downtime for maintenance purposes, unscheduled maintenance, and systems outages. There are no assurances, however, that access will be available at all times and uninterrupted. Our hosting platform, for example, may become unavailable for short periods during intermittent server delays, unexpected server volume, malware attacks, system maintenance, or updates beyond our control. Our video hosting platform, Vimeo, may experience outages in service beyond our control for short or extended periods of time. Further, Supertutor Media does not warrant that the operation of this Web Site will be error-free, that defects will be corrected, or that this Web Site or the servers that make it available are free from viruses or other harmful components.
You are solely responsible for obtaining telecommunications access to the Site and any fees (such as internet service provider or airtime charges) relating to such access. Similarly, you are solely responsible for all equipment necessary to access this Site. Users are responsible for maintaining a service connection capable of streaming video content. Note to international Users: Supertutor Media subscription video content is hosted on Vimeo.com, a site which may be blocked by some foreign governments, such as China’s. It is the User’s responsibility to obtain access that allows content from Vimeo servers and confirm that such access is not restricted by any international law, government or service provider access restrictions, web browser or firewall privacy settings, or telecommunications limitations.
Browser Support
The Supertutor Media online prep system may not support all web browsers or computer systems. Older web browsers, such as Internet Explorer, may not provide functional access to this site. Supertutor Media recommends Google Chrome, Firefox, and Safari browsers. Best efforts will be made to provide support at all times for at least one browser for Mac and PC (Windows OS) systems. The course may not be compatible with firewall software or all privacy settings on all browsers, as our servers must authenticate paid subscriber access of videos. Support for other operating systems and browsers is not guaranteed. Some school issued laptops, school WiFi networks, or library WiFi networks may restrict privacy settings in ways that are incompatible with our site.
Process to Access All Features
Some advertised features may not directly be accessible after logging in and payment. Such features must be requested by the user via email to info@supertutortv.com. In most cases, up to 7 days may be required for the feature to be provided; when feature is related to 3rd party material outside our control, feature is not guaranteed (see below). The user agrees to make no claims that any feature is missing without first contacting info@supertutortv.com with a 7 day notice period. Please note that any materials advertised or mentioned in any documentation, video, or otherwise as “coming soon” or as in development are not guaranteed as part of your course offerings and any projected release timing offered is a best estimate and also not guaranteed. A projected release date that is not met shall not be considered a breach of contract.
A summary of advertised features for our online courses may be found at:
Supertutortv.com/the-best-act-prep-course-ever
and Supertutortv.com/the-best-SAT-prep-course-ever
Some advertised features, specifically the Bluebook import tool or any other test import or data analysis tool that relies on data or test results from 3rd parties are not guaranteed. 3rd parties may change the formatting, nature, or availability of said data that would be incompatible with the SupertutorTV platform and SupertutorTV offers no guarantee its site can adapt given the potential variability of 3rd party products. For example, if the College Board rolls out Bluebook SAT® practice tests that randomize question order by individual student, introduce multiple “versions” of tests with the same label, or change the questions on the exams in ways that differ from current practices, Supertutor may not be able to effectively import or track data from the Bluebook platform. Should College Board add more Bluebook Tests or alter current exams, even if in the same manner as it did in August of 2024 or earlier, Supertutor does not guarantee import support for those new or altered exams. Analysis of ACT practice exams (labelling questions by content tag) may not be as comprehensive on all exams covered by the online course. Further features may be available within the course, but are not guaranteed if not explicitly described on our sales pages and any such additional features not clearly described may be removed at the discretion of Supertutor Media.
Advertised features for newer subscribers may differ from advertised features for older subscribers. For instance, we may ship a newer version of the ACT Official Guide to newer subscribers and subsequently offer video explanations related to material in that book, but not in an older edition of the book, only to subscribers who received the newer version. Subscribers to our Digital SAT® platform do not have the same number of videos or style of review videos that were once available on our paper SAT®course. We may also update our platform or content delivery methods for a new “version” of the course (for example the “Digital” version of the SAT® or ACT). Older subscribers are not guaranteed access to new versions of our course. Newer versions of the course do not guarantee functionality that mirrors older versions.
Furthermore, we reserve the right to change out specific materials available on the course, replace course content with similar or updated content, remove course content entirely, or otherwise modify the course as necessary and at Supertutor Media’s discretion, so long as our course continues to offer a version of the general features, quantity of material, and/or value of material advertised in our initial offering to you.
Accounts
If you enroll in any of Supertutor Media’s test preparation services that include platform access, you will have an account and a password. Access to password protected portions of this Site is available for only so long as you have paid all required fees to Supertutor Media. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password and for restricting access to SupertutorTV’s Site course material to anyone other than yourself. You agree to accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account or password. Supertutor Media reserves the right to refuse service, terminate accounts, remove or edit content, or cancel orders in its sole discretion.

Free Trial Period
We offer a limited access 5-day free trial (five 24-hour periods) to our self-paced course and Tutor Mode products only for those who electively check the “free trial” box upon checkout. This trial does NOT include all course features and is offered at the discretion of Supertutor Media, which reserves the right to revoke free trial access or availability at any time. Unless you cancel within the five day period within the course by the end of your trial period, by starting a support ticket from within your course 24 hours before the end of your trial period, or by emailing info@supertutortv.com 24 hours before the end of your trial period, your credit card will be charged for the course you selected at the price of sale originally offered at the time of trial initiation. Free trials do not include books or most pdf downloads (including slide decks for educators on Tutor Mode). We only charge your card after your free trial is over.
If you have signed up for a trial but wish to sign up for a different product and are still in your trial period (for example, you are on trial for both SAT® and ACT but only want to study for the ACT), you will need to cancel your trial within the 5-day period and email us so we can clear out your account and you can subscribe to the product you wish to have. Many changes to Tutor Mode accounts can be made from your account dashboard, so long as the new subscription selected is a higher price point than the previous one.
Refunds
Self-Paced Courses:
We do not offer refunds once a self paced course once has been purchased. We do not offer a score increase guarantee to any subscribers who subscribed before April 1, 2020. For student self-paced course subscribers who subscribed after April 1, 2020, we offer a money back policy if no score increase is achieved and course materials and all practice tests are completed, subject to our terms: https://supertutortv.com/higher-scores-money-back-guarantee-terms. Once the course has been purchased outright or “unlocked,” we do not offer “prorated” refunds. For example, if you purchase the 1-year course but later decide you only want 6 months access, you are not entitled to receive the difference between the 1-year price and the 6-month price.
Tutor Mode Subscriptions:
We do not offer refunds once a Tutor Mode Subscription has been purchased. Any free access offers that are triggered by student connected sales or group sales shall be an add-on to a current Tutor’s account access. Once the access has been purchased outright or “unlocked,” we do not offer “prorated” refunds. For example, if you purchase the 1-year access but later decide you only want 6 months access, you are not entitled to receive the difference between the 1-year price and the 6-month price.
Live Classes / Group Seminars:
Full refunds for any live classes or group seminars must be requested a minimum of 7 days (7 24-hour periods) in advance of the first lesson/class/event. In no case may a refund be made with intention of a price adjustment. A refunded class may not be repurchased at a lower sale price or coupon rate. A partial refund may be granted at SupertutorTV’s discretion with a minimum of 24 hours notice minus a service fee of 25%. After this time, should a student be unable to attend, Supertutor Media may, at its discretion, grant access to the missed session either in the form of a non-transferable, recorded similar workshop/class or access to a future session (if available) upon request only.
If a student purchases a live class bundled with an online course, and requests a refund at least 7 days in advance, only the portion of the purchase attributable to the live class portion minus the non-prorated full retail cost of the online self-paced course access shall be refunded. The self-paced course is not refundable.
Private Tutoring:
Our company maintains differing cancellation policies depending on the tutor. Each tutor maintains a 72, 48, or 24 hour cancellation policy: cancellations of private tutoring sessions must be given by written email notice to both Supertutor Media and the individual tutor’s SupertutorTV email 72 hours (or the prevailing number as agreed to in writing per your invoice according to each individual tutor) in advance of the start of one’s lesson time, or full cost of the lesson shall be due. Please refer to your individual tutoring contract or invoice for your tutor’s cancellation policy.
Private tutoring sessions that have been cancelled in a timely manner may be rescheduled and payment applied to a future lesson. Should a student no longer wish to work with Supertutor Media’s tutors, and sessions are cancelled with greater than the 72 / 48 / 24 hours notice (according to the invoice/contract for your tutor), a refund may be processed at the end of the tutoring relationship or upon completion of tutoring objective (for example college essay deadlines or final SAT® test date); however, for package purchases, remaining credit shall be refunded after accounting for all lessons used at the pay-as-you-go rate, not the discounted package rate. Remaining package value may be alternatively applied to other tutors at their respective pay-as-you go rates, or to other tutors on identical rate schedules at the package rate, if available.
Price Adjustments
If a sale, package, or coupon rate becomes available after a student has already paid for a course or a lesson, no price adjustments shall be made to previously purchased products or services. Coupons are valid for new sales and purchases of courses only.
Recourse
In the case Supertutor Media is not able to deliver online self-paced course services or features purchased, Supertutor Media may offer you a partial, pro-rated, or full refund in return for cessation of all remaining services. Our obligation to you shall be no more than an amount equivalent to the prorated cost based on the amount of subscription time on the course remaining, minus the full retail value of the Official ACT Prep Guide when applicable. Supertutor does not refund shipping fees. Further, Supertutor may terminate its relationship with any customer for any legal reason, or no reason at all if legal, at Supertutor’s discretion by offering the customer a full refund of all amounts paid. Supertutor’s maximum liability shall not exceed the actual purchase price paid for the account or products, and in no event shall Supertutor be liable for loss of, damage to, or corruption of data stored with Supertutor about your account, or for special, incidental, consequential, or indirect damages whatsoever, including without limitations teaching strategies or content that is ineffective, faulty, or incorrect.
In the case Supertutor Media is not able to deliver tutoring services purchased, Supertutor Media will attempt to offer a replacement tutor for the same subject and according to the student’s available schedule. Alternatively at its discretion, Supertutor Media may offer you a partial, pro-rated, or full refund in return for cessation of all remaining services.
Course Extensions or Retakes
Course Extensions for student purchased online self paced courses for longer than the six month (or one year, when applicable) period, may be granted at the discretion of Supertutor Media, Inc. Students who have a Course Extension must accept any ongoing changes to the course, which may or may not adhere to the originally advertised materials available. Students who have a Course Extension are not entitled to upgrades or transference of their account to any other version / test of the package, even if the original test version is discontinued. If a Course Extension is paid for, then the payment for the Extension has no trial refund period. Supertutor Media, Inc. reserves the right to deny package extensions at its sole discretion. If Supertutor Media believes a purchaser is not an individual, single user student or is using the program for a purpose other than studying for the ACT or SAT® for admission to an undergraduate college program (i.e. the program is purchased on behalf of a private tutor or institution), it furthermore may limit subscriber ability to purchase an extension or may offer such extensions at different subscription rates. Supertutor Media further reserves the right to require proof of registration for future ACT or SAT® test dates or previous test dates, or other proof of status including but not limited to student transcripts or copy of a student ID, to confirm student intentions.
Recurring Charges
Tutor Mode subscriptions are subject to automatic renewal and recurring charges. Auto renew may be cancelled at any time in the account page.
Student self-paced courses rely on a one-time charge and do not auto-renew. To purchase a course extension, go to your account page before your account lapses or email us info@supertutortv.com. Discounted extensions are available up to two weeks after a course expires but are non-transferable.
Account Cancellation
Any admin may cancel any account associated with the organization by sending an email to Supertutor Media (info@supertutortv.com). Cancelled accounts may be erased the moment such an email is received, and usage data, historical grades, scores, and other information associated with the account may not be maintained.
One Person Per Account
You agree both directly and through your administrators to only allow one natural person to use each online course account purchased and each online live course/class seat. By way of example, if Simon and FeiFei are two people in a class, they many not actively prepare using the same account; likewise, if Simon uses an account for 4 months, she may not pass in on to FeiFei who uses it for another 2 months. If Sharon and Billy are twins, and they wish to sign up for an online group cram session, they should sign up for two seats at the online session. This limitation does not include having a person debug an account or otherwise help that first person, as long as such time is limited to less than 5% of the total access time.
Tutor Mode Plus! Accounts may be used by a single tutor with multiple 1:1 students, so long as the tutor is present during any use of the account and no photocopies of materials from the course are distributed to any students. For example, a tutor may use on screen practice problems during an online lesson with a shared screen to review a particular question type with a student. Tutors planning to use our course with a class room should contact info@supertutortv.com. In no case may tutors share their login information with students.

The organization agrees to allow each account to be updated to the latest version of the site along with the rest of the site.
