Terms & Conditions
Please read these terms carefully before using the BidandStudy platform. By using our services, you agree to be bound by these terms.
Last updated: April 24, 2026
1. Overview and Scope
FPP Edu Media LLC ("FPP Edu Media," "we," "our," "us") operates an online marketplace (the "Platform") that connects individual learners ("Students") with language schools ("Schools"). The Platform is marketed under the trade names BidandStudy, LeilãodeIntercâmbio, RematedeCursos, among others, used exclusively for marketing and communication purposes. The registered company responsible for all services and obligations is FPP Edu Media LLC. The Platform is not a university/college marketplace and does not itself provide educational services.
By accessing or using the Platform, you agree to be bound by these Terms & Conditions (the "Terms"), our Privacy Policy, and our Cookie Policy.
2. Key Definitions
School: A language school participating on the Platform.
Student: An individual using the Platform to find and enroll in language courses.
Bid: A Student's price proposal and preferences submitted through the Platform.
Counteroffer: A School's reply proposing different terms.
Acceptance: A School's acceptance of a Bid (or a Student's acceptance of a Counteroffer).
Reservation Deposit: the US$ 100 the Student pays FPP Edu Media to hold a chosen offer. It is not refundable if the Student withdraws, and it is deducted from the final price of the accepted program. Amounts are always shown as absolute figures before any charge, never as percentages.
Expiration Time: The date/time after which a Bid, Counteroffer, or Acceptance automatically lapses if no required action is taken.
3. Eligibility and Capacity
You must be 18 years or older and have legal capacity to contract. If you are under 18, you may only use the Platform with the active consent and responsibility of a parent or legal guardian.
4. Role of FPP Edu Media
FPP Edu Media operates the Platform that connects Students and Schools and, when receiving payments from a Student (reservation deposit, intermediate payment or program balance), acts as payment facilitator for those amounts. The education contract is formed directly between the Student and the School. Schools are solely responsible for their course content, pricing, availability, policies, quality, and delivery.
5. School Identity and Messaging
School profiles may be visible in a generic form on the Platform. The School's full identity (name, logo, and website) is revealed to the Student once a School sends a proposal (Acceptance or Counteroffer).
Once the Student accepts an offer, the Student is introduced to the School by full name (first and last) and the reservation deposit is charged. Enrollment logistics are coordinated by FPP Edu Media: the Student communicates with FPP Edu Media and the School communicates with FPP Edu Media, and messages are relayed between them. FPP Edu Media does not open a direct messaging channel between Student and School on the Platform.
6. Submitting Bids
Submitting a Bid on the Platform is free. There is no bid fee and no payment required to receive School responses. Schools receiving a Bid may accept, decline, or respond with a Counteroffer. All actions may include an Expiration Time displayed in the Platform. No contract is binding until the Student confirms an accepted offer by paying the reservation deposit before expiry.
Decision window: Once the first School responds to your Bid, you have 72 hours to choose a School on the Platform. If no selection is made within that window, the pending offers are withdrawn and our team takes over the follow-up. The countdown is paused while any admin thread you opened is awaiting a reply from us, and resumes automatically once we reply.
7. Acceptances and Payments
Reservation deposit (US$ 100): when the Student chooses a School, the Student pays a US$ 100 reservation deposit to FPP Edu Media to hold the offer. Offers carry an Expiration Time, and Schools have the right not to hold an offer after it expires. The deposit is not refundable if the Student withdraws, but it is deducted from the final price of the accepted program.
Remaining balance: the remaining program amounts (course, accommodation, airport transfers and other items shown on the offer) are paid to FPP Edu Media no later than 3 weeks (21 days) before the course start date, by card or bank transfer. After receiving the full amount, FPP Edu Media settles the corresponding amounts with the School. Card payments carry the processing fee shown at checkout; bank transfers carry none.
Taxes, FX, and Charges: Prices may exclude taxes/fees. Bank charges, foreign exchange spreads, and payment processor fees are the Student's responsibility.
Chargebacks/Failures: We may suspend pending actions if a payment fails or is charged back.
8. Expirations
If the Student does not confirm an accepted Bid or Counteroffer by paying the reservation deposit before the Expiration Time, the offer lapses automatically without liability to either party.
9. Enrollment Confirmation and Contracting Party
Enrollment is only confirmed once (a) the School has accepted the Bid or the Student has accepted a Counteroffer, and (b) the Student has paid the reservation deposit before the Expiration Time. The School then issues written confirmation and an invoice for the remaining amounts.
10. Changes to Reservations
Changes to confirmed bookings are governed by each School's policies. Some Schools allow changes within a short window after confirmation without extra fees; others may charge administrative or third-party costs. Changing Schools, reducing duration, or downgrading services may be treated as a cancellation under the School's policy.
11. Cancellations and Refunds
If the Student does not confirm an accepted Bid or Counteroffer before expiry, the offer simply lapses and no deposit is charged.
After payment, the reservation deposit is handled as follows: (a) if the School fails to honour the accepted offer, the Student receives a full refund with no administrative fee; (b) if cancellation is not caused by the Student (visa refusal despite the Student following the guidance, documented force-majeure, or equivalent), the Student receives a refund minus a small administrative fee disclosed at checkout; (c) if the Student withdraws after choosing for their own reasons, the deposit is non-refundable but is deducted from the final price if the Student later completes the same program.
Visa Refusal: Students must submit official refusal documentation no later than 21 days before the course start date (unless the School specifies a different window) to qualify under (b) above. Admin fees may apply as disclosed at checkout and/or by the School.
Remaining amounts paid to the School: Refunds on amounts the Student paid directly to the School are governed by the School's own refund policy, shown before the Student confirms the offer.
After start date: After the course begins, refunds are generally not available for the remainder, unless explicitly provided in the School's policy.
12. Accommodation (If Offered)
Accommodation (when provided) is managed by the School or third-party providers and is subject to their terms. Preferences listed in the Bid are not guaranteed. Detailed accommodation information is typically provided 1–2 weeks before the course start date.
13. Airport Transfers and Ancillary Services
Airport transfers and other ancillary services may be available through individual Schools or third parties and are subject to their separate terms, pricing, and availability.
14. Minimum Class Size and Holiday Schedules
Schools may replace group classes with reduced individual/small-group classes if minimum class sizes are not met. Classes typically do not occur on local/national holidays or weekends; missed classes are not usually refunded or rescheduled unless stated otherwise by the School.
15. Student Responsibilities (Travel, Health, Compliance)
Students are responsible for passports, visas, travel arrangements, insurance, customs/immigration rules, and health requirements. Students should inform Schools of relevant medical considerations and follow local regulations.
16. Prohibited Conduct
You agree not to: (a) misrepresent identity or documentation; (b) automatically extract data from, harvest information from, or reverse-engineer the Platform; (c) post abusive, illegal, or infringing content; (d) interfere with the Platform; or (e) violate sanctions, export controls, or other applicable laws. We may suspend or terminate accounts for violations.
17. Information Accuracy
School listings, prices, availability, policies, and descriptions are provided by the Schools. FPP Edu Media does not guarantee accuracy or completeness and is not liable for errors/omissions. Currency conversions shown on the Platform are for information only.
18. Privacy; KYC/AML
We process personal data per our Privacy Policy (GDPR- and LGPD-aligned). We may conduct KYC/AML/sanctions screening and freeze or refund payments where required by law or to prevent misuse.
19. Intellectual Property and Use of Site
All Platform content is owned by FPP Edu Media or its licensors and protected by intellectual property laws. You may use the Platform for personal, non-commercial purposes only. No automated data extraction, framing, unauthorized copying, or derivative works are permitted.
20. Third-Party Links and Services
The Platform may link to third-party sites or services. We do not control or endorse third-party content and are not responsible for it. Your use of third-party services is at your own risk and subject to their terms.
21. Disclaimers; Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Platform is provided "as is." We do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation, admission outcomes, visas, accommodation, or course results.
Schools are solely responsible for the delivery and quality of their services.
Our total liability for claims arising out of or related to the Platform shall not exceed the aggregate fees paid to FPP Edu Media for the relevant transaction(s). We shall not be liable for indirect, punitive, incidental, or consequential damages.
22. Suspension and Termination
We may suspend or terminate access to the Platform at any time for any reason, including misuse, fraud, non-payment, chargebacks, or suspected violations of these Terms.
23. Governing Law and Venue
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Nevada, USA, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. You agree to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the courts located in Clark County, Nevada for all disputes arising from these Terms or the Platform.
24. Language and Precedence
We may provide these Terms in multiple languages (e.g., English, Portuguese, Spanish). In the event of inconsistency or conflict, the English version controls.
25. Changes to Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. The "Last updated" date will reflect changes. Your continued use of the Platform after updates constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
