Participants in our programs are expected to abide by the rules and conduct guidelines set by our Partners. Awaystudies.com does not enforce specific rules, but students may be subject to terms outlined by the host institutions, schools, or host families.
5. Limited Responsibility
Awaystudies.com acts as a communication facilitator between students, parents, and Partners. While we ensure that our Partners meet the necessary standards, we are not responsible for the safety, visa issues, or health of students during their stay.

8. Third-Party Providers
Awaystudies.com works with trusted third-party Partners for certain aspects of the programs (e.g., schools, travel agencies, insurance providers). These Partners have their own terms and conditions, which will apply in addition to our terms. Awaystudies.com is not responsible for any issues or disputes arising from services provided by third-party Partners.
9. Dispute Resolution
Any disputes arising from the use of Awaystudies.com or its services will be resolved through binding arbitration in the state of Nevada, USA. By using our website and services, you agree to waive any right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class-action lawsuit.
