Aprovado provides services for you to track, manage and share your study activities. The Services do not contain or constitute, and should not be construed as, advice or opinion on preparing for qualifying exams at a regional or national level.

Your use of the website or mobile application does not create a student-teacher relationship between you and Sand Robot. The name Aprovado is merely a registered trademark and cannot be interpreted as a guarantee of passing such exams.

These Terms of Service, and any rights and licenses granted herein, are not transferable or assignable by you, but may be assigned by us without restriction.

These Terms of Service are governed by Brazilian laws, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. You expressly agree to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of state and federal courts. If any provision of these Terms of Service is held to be invalid by any court having competent jurisdiction, the invalidity of such provision will not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of the Terms of Service, which will remain in full force and effect. Our failure to enforce any provision of the Terms of Service shall not be construed as a waiver of that provision or any other provision of these Terms of Service. No action will be effective against us unless in writing. Unless expressly agreed by us and you, these Terms of Service constitute the entire agreement between you and us with respect to subject matter, and supersede all prior or contemporaneous agreements, written or oral, between the parties with respect to subject matter. Section titles are provided for convenience only and no legal significance will be given. These Terms of Service will inure to the benefit of our successors, assigns, licensees and sublicensees.

The Services may also include access to certain advertisements for study materials and related courses (“Ads”). The Ads service is a collection of study materials including, but not limited to, books, handouts, ebooks, videos, images, courses (“Material”), provided by third parties (“Advertisers”), under these Additional Terms and Conditions, in addition to the Terms of Service (collectively, the "Agreement"). The offer of the Material is a courtesy of Sand Robot, by agreement between the Advertiser and Sand Robot, and you must evaluate its content, conditions, usefulness, payment methods, quality, reliability, accuracy, completeness directly with the advertiser, using its informative material made available on its website. The relationship between Sand Robot and Advertisers is an association of Advertiser and advertising media (the Aprovado). Advertisers and Sand Robot are independent parties. We do not claim any partnership, commercial or legal representation, or similar association with Advertisers.

The entire guarantee of the material in the Ads is given, if any, by the corresponding Advertisers who offer the material. Sand Robot will, whenever possible, indicate the corresponding Advertiser offering the Material. Sand Robot makes no warranty as to the accuracy, reliability, completeness, or reliability of the Material. The advertisement of the Material is the responsibility of the Advertiser. Sand Robot will do its best to maintain a relevant and up-to-date list of advertisements, but for technical reasons, we are not responsible for discrepancies between the advertised content and the content marketed by the Advertiser.

Likewise, the rules and terms of use of each Material are the sole responsibility of the Affiliate. The Terms of Service herein have no effect on such Materials.

All use rights, proprietary rights, copyright and intellectual property rights, and other legal rights in the Material belong to their authors or their respective legal owners. We do not claim any rights to the Material.

The price of the Material is the sole responsibility of the corresponding Advertiser, and we have no control, right, or opinion over it. For your convenience, in some situations we may display the price of the Material within the Aprovado website. Sand Robot will do its best to keep the advertised values synchronized with the values charged by the Advertiser, but due to technical issues such as Internet delay, caching and communication interruption, there may be temporary discrepancies between the quoted price and the price charged by the Advertiser. In any case, the effective price of the Material will be the one that the Advertiser informs when requesting payment. We are not responsible for the divergence of prices between the one charged by the Advertiser and the one shown on the Aprovado website.

Likewise, the payment terms and conditions for the Material, the mechanism, payment methods, terms, discounts, fees and taxes, installments and other conditions, are the responsibility of the Advertiser. Sand Robot does not claim any control over payment for the Material. It is your responsibility to inquire about the conditions and terms of payment for the Material from the corresponding Advertiser. We disclaim any responsibility for the matter.
