Skillshare Terms of Service

These Terms govern how you can use Skillshare as a Student or Teacher, including rules for your account and subscription. Your subscription renews automatically and Skillshare can change its price at the next billing cycle; refunds are not guaranteed, and you are limited to at most one. If you have a dispute with Skillshare, you must resolve it through individual arbitration — not a lawsuit or class action.

Skillshare's Terms of Service establish the conditions under which users may create and maintain accounts, access the platform's educational content, and transact as Students or Teachers. The document imposes account-level restrictions — including a minimum age of 18, single-user access requirements, and automatic subscription renewal — alongside a broad content license granted by non-EU/UK Students to Skillshare with sublicensing rights for any lawful purpose. Dispute resolution is channeled exclusively into final and binding individual arbitration, with users waiving class-action, class-wide arbitration, and jury trial rights. Skillshare's liability exposure is narrowed by exclusions covering special, punitive, incidental, indirect, and consequential damages, and by a refund policy that imposes no obligation on Skillshare and caps users at one refund to the extent permitted by applicable law. Users bear indemnification obligations for costs, liabilities, and attorneys' fees arising from their own Terms violations, and Skillshare retains unilateral authority to suspend or delete accounts for violations of its Terms, Teacher Rules and Requirements, or Community Guidelines.

As a Skillshare user, your subscription renews automatically each billing period and Skillshare can adjust the price or other subscription terms at the start of your next cycle, so monitoring billing notices matters. Refunds are not guaranteed and are capped at one per user. When you enroll in any class, your personal data — including information you provided to Skillshare — is shared with the Teacher of that class. If a dispute arises, you are bound to individual arbitration and cannot join a class action or seek a jury trial. Skillshare can permanently delete your account for violations of its Terms, Teacher Rules and Requirements, or Community Guidelines. If you are under 18, you are not permitted to create an account. The one concrete action available: you can cancel your subscription before your next billing period begins to stop automatic renewal charges.
