The Test Tutor’s Sellers Terms of Service
Welcome to The-Test-Tutor.com.
The following describes the terms on which The-Test-Tutor.com (referred to herein as “TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING,” “we,” or “us”) offer you access to our services. Your permission to use the TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING Service, and the licenses granted herein, are expressly conditioned upon your acceptance of these Terms of Service, and the following additional terms and conditions and policies, which are hereby incorporated by reference (collectively, the “Agreement”):
TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING is a web-based service available from the domain WWW.THE-TEST-TUTOR.COM. This service provides tutors, teachers and publishers with an online marketplace to buy and sell educational materials directly from and to each other, which may consist of original digital or physical materials created by the seller (“Test Preparation Content”). The service provided by TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING is referenced herein as the “Service.” TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING at no time owns or sells any product for or on behalf of teachers or publishers. Teachers and tutors who sell Test Preparation Content via the Service are referenced herein and in the Service as “Teacher/Tutor Sellers.” Publishers who sell Test Preparation Content via the Service are referenced herein and in the Service as “Publisher-Sellers.” Teacher/Tutor Sellers and Publisher-Sellers are referenced together, herein and in the Service, as “Sellers.” Teachers who purchase Test Preparation Content via the Service are referenced herein and in the Service as “Customers.”
This Terms of Service/User Agreement (“Agreement”) governs your access to and use of the Service, whether in the capacity of a Teacher/Tutor Seller, Publisher-Seller, Customer, or visitor, including the finding, buying, posting, selling, and sharing of Test Preparation Content, and participating in online forums, feedback loops, bulletin boards, wikis, and chats, which features and activities shall also be considered part of the “Service.” Portions of the TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING Service are publicly available to all visitors to the site. Other portions of the Service are available only to registered Sellers who are Teacher/Tutor Sellers, Publisher-Sellers, and/or Customers (collectively, “Sellers”). By registering with TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING or by using the Service in any manner – including, but not limited to, by visiting the www.TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING.com website – you acknowledge and agree to the terms stated in this Agreement. This Terms of Service applies to both visitors and Sellers.
The Service is intended for adults only. You must be 18 years or older to use this site; users under 18 are not authorized to use the Service.
Sellership Fees, Service Fees & Transaction Fees. Teacher/Tutor Sellers who wish to sell their Test Preparation Content through the Service must join TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING. Sellers who are Teacher/Tutor Sellers pay no annual Sellership fee.
Shipping, Handling and Processing Charges. Teacher/Tutor Sellers and Publisher-Sellers may charge for shipping, handling, and processing of the physical materials that are sold via the Service in one of two ways: (1) by including the shipping, handling, and processing method and charges in the sale price of the item; or (2) by charging a flat rate for shipping, handling, and processing of all items sold, which will be reimbursed in full to you in your Monthly Payout (the amount to be paid to you each month pursuant to this Agreement).
Teacher/Tutor Sellers and Publisher-Sellers are solely responsible for setting the prices for the sale of their Test Preparation Content distributed through the Service, including for both electronic and physical materials, provided that such pricing (for items that are not offered free of charge) is not below the minimum price set by TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING. The minimum price is subject to change. Sellers are obligated to sell their Test Preparation Content at the prices listed on the Service.
In consideration for the services provided by TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING, you (Teacher/Tutor Seller) agree to pay TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING a service fee (“Service Fee”) for all Test Preparation Content you sell to Customers through the Service, in accordance with the following: Sellers will pay a Service Fee equal to 10% of the sale price (excluding shipping)
For each transaction, TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING will automatically deduct the 10% Service Fee from the sale price collected from Customers through the Service, and then will distribute the remaining amounts to the Teacher/Tutor Seller on a monthly basis as follows: (a) TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING will collect payment from Customers at the time Test Preparation Content is purchased through the Service, (b) TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING will notify you (the Teacher/Tutor Seller or Publisher-Seller) by email of the sale once payment has been verified and collected from the Customer, (c) in the case of physical Test Preparation Content, TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING will provide the Teacher/Tutor Seller or Publisher-Seller with the Customer’s shipping address and any other information required for the Teacher/Tutor Seller or Publisher-Seller to fulfill the order, and (d) provided you are in compliance with these Terms, on a monthly basis, TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING will distribute the monies due to you (as a Teacher/Tutor Seller or Publisher-Seller) for the sale of your Test Preparation Content. If you are in breach of these Terms, for example due to violation of the conduct provisions in Section 6 hereto, TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING reserves the right, according to its sole discretion, to withhold any funds that would otherwise be due to you under these Terms, and either _keep those funds permanently_, or refund them to the Customers who purchased content from you. All monies due to Sellers pursuant to this Section C will be paid to such Sellers _as close to _21 days following the last day of the month in which an item of your Test Preparation Content is sold (e.g., within 21 days after January 31 for January sales). TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING reserves the right to delay payment. Monthly payments will be made through PayPal for all Teacher/Tutor Sellers and Publisher-Sellers. TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING reserves the right to add, remove or otherwise alter the payment processors used by the Service. If you (as a Teacher/Tutor Seller or Publisher-Seller) cannot acquire an account with an approved payment processor, we may consider an alternative form of payment on a case-by-case basis. We make no representation regarding the services provided by our payment processors, and are not responsible for delays in payment caused by them. TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING will charge a fee for making each Monthly Payout that is equal to but not more than the cost to TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING from its respective payment processors for making the payout. This fee is subject to change at the discretion of the payment processors, and will be taken directly out of your Monthly Payout. You agree that upon notification of a sale of Test Preparation Content, you will promptly ship the relevant physical Test Preparation Content sold by you through the Service, in accordance with any representations made by you on the Service and/or in connection with such Test Preparation Content, including, for example, with respect to the pricing and shipping of such Test Preparation Content, and in any event in accordance with all applicable state and federal laws, rules, regulations, and/or industry standards. Teacher/Tutor Sellers and Publisher-Sellers are not authorized by the Service to ship to any address other than that which is provided to it by TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING.
By listing an item for sale, or uploading it to the Service, you (Teacher/Tutor Seller or Publisher-Seller) represent and warrant to prospective Customers that you have the right and ability to sell and to ship, and that the listing is accurate, current, and complete and is not misleading or otherwise deceptive. You further represent and warrant that the Test Preparation Content, and use of the same will not infringe any right – including, but not limited to the copyright or trademark right – of any third party.
If you are a Teacher/Tutor Seller or Publisher-Seller of digital Test Preparation Content, you agree to make at least one sample of such digital Test Preparation Content available to Customers at no charge at all times when you are offering digital Test Preparation Content for sale via the Service. When selling digital Test Preparation Content, you agree that the entire product being sold must be contained within the download offered, and that no part of such digital Test Preparation Content will be delivered separately or require an additional purchase, for example via a third-party website or other channel.
For any printable, non-video item of Digital Content you upload, you agree to provide your authorization, in the form of the statement below, to Buyers to print and make copies of free and purchased resources.
"The holder of this receipt is authorized by the owner or creator of the materials listed
below, to print and/or make copies of these materials for personal use and/or classroom
instruction."
Additionally, unless otherwise authorized, Sellers agree not to – and agree to cause their affiliates, agents, employees and contractors not to – use or disclose to any third party any order information, or other data or information regarding Customers or any other users of the Service, which is obtained through the Service or disclosed to Sellers by TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING in connection with a transaction made via the Service, for any purpose except as necessary to complete transactions made through the Service and otherwise fulfill their obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, for purposes of solicitation, advertising, direct marketing, harassment, invasion of privacy, or any other objectionable conduct).
Your use of the Service includes the ability to enter into agreements and/or to make purchases electronically. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOUR ELECTRONIC SUBMISSIONS CONSTITUTE YOUR AGREEMENT AND INTENT TO BE BOUND BY AND TO PAY FOR SUCH AGREEMENTS AND PURCHASES. YOUR AGREEMENT AND INTENT TO BE BOUND BY ELECTRONIC SUBMISSIONS APPLIES TO ALL RECORDS RELATING TO ALL TRANSACTIONS YOU ENTER INTO ON THIS SITE, INCLUDING NOTICES OF CANCELLATION, POLICIES, CONTRACTS, AND APPLICATIONS. In order to access and retain your electronic records, you may be required to have certain hardware and software, which are your sole responsibility.
Your direct interactions (if any) with other visitors to or Sellers of the Service, including the purchase of, sale of, payment for, and delivery of goods or services, and any other terms, conditions, warranties, or representations associated with such dealings, are solely between you and that individual. Like with any web-based interaction, we suggest that you use caution and good judgment. You further understand and agree that TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING is not involved in any actual transactions made through the Service, and that it is not the agent or representative of any Teacher/Tutor Seller, Publisher-Seller, or Customer (or any visitor) for any purpose whatsoever and that it is not responsible for any loss or damage incurred as the result of any such dealings or with respect to any other visitor’s or Seller’s use or disclosure of your personally identifiable information. For details about our information collection practices, please see our Privacy Policy. IF THERE IS A DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND ANY THIRD PARTY (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY SELLER OR VISITOR OF THE SERVICE), TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING IS UNDER NO OBLIGATION TO BECOME INVOLVED, AND YOU HEREBY RELEASE TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING FROM ANY CLAIMS, DEMANDS, OR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND AND OF ANY NATURE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY SUCH DISPUTE. You agree that you are solely and exclusively responsible for any federal, state, or local taxes, including sales taxes, that might apply to any sales you make in connection with Service.
All physical and digital product sales are final, and no refunds are available.
TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING may in its sole discretion make certain exceptions to this policy on a case-by-case basis, for example if: (a) a digital file is defective; (b) a product description is materially deceptive or misleading; or (c) a physical item has not been shipped within two weeks of an order being placed. If such an exception is made, TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING may issue to the buyer a refund for such purchase in any manner it deems appropriate, including without limitation in the form of store credit.
It is the buyer’s responsibility to determine that they have the appropriate hardware/software internet and service connectivity to make use of digital files, that the file format is appropriate for their needs, and that the content they are purchasing is legal and noninfringing. No refunds are available in these cases. Products removed from the Service due to a complaint of copyright/trademark infringement, or for any other reason, are not eligible for a refund.
If TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING elects to issue a refund to a buyer, the amount refunded will be deducted from the seller’s next Monthly Payout, provided however that if the seller’s next Monthly Payout is less than the refund amount(s), TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING may charge such refund amount(s) to the seller’s credit card, PayPal account, or other payment processor account.
TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING does not transfer legal title or ownership of items from the Teacher/Tutor Sellers or Publisher-Sellers to the Customers, and nothing in this Agreement shall modify the applicable provisions of Uniform Commercial Code 2-401(2) which provide that, unless otherwise explicitly agreed between a seller and a buyer, legal title to a purchased item transfers to the buyer upon physical delivery of the item to the buyer from the seller. Accordingly, unless a Customer and Seller agree otherwise, legal ownership to any item of the Test Preparation Content passes to the Customer upon the physical delivery of such item of Test Preparation Content from the Seller to the Customer.
When you (Teacher/Tutor Seller or Publisher-Seller) submit or upload content on or through the Service, you retain ownership of any copyright you claim to your submitted content. However, by making your content available through the Service you automatically grant TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING a royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable (except as expressly set forth in this Agreement), non-exclusive, worldwide, sublicensable right to exercise any copyright, trademark rights publicity rights, and/or database rights (but no other rights) you have in the content, in any media now known or later developed, solely as reasonably necessary to make the Test Preparation Content available through the Service. This allows TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING to engage third-party servers to host or store your content so that we can make it available through our Service. IF YOU CHOOSE TO CANCEL YOUR SELLERS ACCOUNT AND LEAVE THE SERVICE, AND/OR HAVE REMOVED YOUR TEST PREPARATION CONTENT FROM THE SERVICE, THIS LICENSE WILL BE DEEMED REVOKED AT THE TIME THAT YOU CANCEL YOUR ACCOUNT AND/OR REMOVE ALL SUCH TEST PREPARATION CONTENT, HOWEVER TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING’ LICENSE TO MAKE TEST PREPARATION CONTENT YOU HAVE SOLD PRIOR TO CANCELLATION OF YOUR SELLERSHIP AND/OR REMOVAL OF SUCH CONTENT AVAILABLE TO SELLERS WHO HAVE PURCHASED SUCH MATERIAL PRIOR TO CANCELLATION OF YOUR SELLERSHIP AND/OR REMOVAL OF SUCH CONTENT SHALL SURVIVE CANCELLATION OF YOUR SELLERSHIP AND/OR REMOVAL OF SUCH CONTENT.
When you (Teacher/Tutor Seller or Publisher-Seller) submit or upload content (including without limitation Test Preparation Content) on or through the Service, you represent and warrant that (a) you have all the rights and/or licenses necessary to use, reproduce, publish, publicly display, publicly perform, distribute, and otherwise exploit such content in connection with the Service, including the right to grant to others all of the rights and licenses contemplated herein; (b) the content will not infringe or otherwise violate the copyright, trademark, or other intellectual property rights of any third party; and (c) you have the consent, release, and/or permission of each identifiable person depicted in your content to upload, transmit, publish, sublicense, and/or disseminate their name and/or likeness through the Service. You (Teacher/Tutor Seller or Publisher-Seller) retain ownership of any rights – including, but not limited to, copyrights and trademark rights – you claim to your submitted content. As such you control the copyright licenses granted to a Customer and it is your responsibility to give notice to Customers of the terms under which you offer your Test Preparation Content to such Customers. TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING may, in its sole discretion, provide a means for Sellers to offer multiple licenses. Nothing in the Service or in these Terms limits the existing rights of Customers under the Copyright Act, including but not limited to rights under Sections 110(1) (classroom teaching), 110(2) (distance learning), or 107 (fair use) of the Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. 101 et seq.).

- Waiver and Severability. The failure of TEST TUTOR PUBLISHING to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Terms of Service shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
