Please read these terms before you enrol. They are a contract between you and us. They are written in plain English on purpose. If any part is unclear, write to us before you accept, and we will explain it.
This is a summary, put here because doctors do not read long documents. It is accurate, but it is not the contract. The clauses below are.
1.1 The provider is DoctorLawyer™ Medicolegal Consulting Services, a sole proprietorship. The proprietor is Dr. Rupal V. Rana, MBBS, DCH, LLB, LLM.
1.2 The address for all purposes is 412, Bldg 2, Wing 4, Mandpeshwar Dham CHS, Laxman Mhatre Marg, SVP Road, Borivali (W), Mumbai 400103. The telephone number is +91 88509 78548. The email address is doctorlawyerofficial@gmail.com.
1.3 DoctorLawyer™ Academy is the name under which the practice provides education. It is not a separate legal entity. It is not a company, a university, a college, an institute of any statutory kind, or a body recognised by any regulator.
1.4 In these terms, "we", "us" and "our" mean the practice described in clause 1.1. "You" and "your" mean the person who accepts these terms and enrols.
2.1 You accept these terms by ticking the box that says you have read and agree to them and then clicking to enrol. That tick is your signature for this purpose.
2.2 If you do not agree to these terms, do not tick the box and do not enrol. You will not be able to use the Academy.
2.3 The version number and date of the terms you accepted are recorded at the moment you accept, together with the other information set out in the acceptance record we keep. You can ask us for a copy of what was recorded for you at any time.
2.4 A copy of the terms in force is available on the Academy at all times, and a copy of the version you accepted is available to you on request.
3.1 The Academy provides education for practising doctors in India on medicolegal, regulatory and documentation subjects.
3.2 At present the Academy offers twenty courses. The first is Medicolegal Essentials, at doctorlawyeracademy.com/primer. It is a written course and it is paid. Clause 14.1 says what it costs. It runs to about 33,500 words, which is about four and a half hours of work in total, and it consists of:
(a) eight written modules, each of about twelve minutes' reading, each carrying the case, section or regulation that every legal proposition in it rests on, and each leaving you a document you can use in your own practice;
(b) a scored quiz at the end of each module, of five applied questions, requiring four correct answers out of five to pass, which you may retake as often as you like, with the authority explained on every answer, and your best score kept;
(c) a final quiz, which opens once you have passed all eight module quizzes, of sixteen questions drawn two from each module, requiring twelve correct answers out of sixteen to pass, which you may also retake as often as you like, and where the sixteen questions put to you are not the same as those put to another participant; and
(d) a certificate of completion, issued when the eight module quizzes and the final quiz are all passed. Clause 13 says what that certificate is and, importantly, what it is not.
3.2C The course is kept current, and here is exactly how far that goes. This course is about law, and law moves. We review each module at least once during your twelve months. Where the law changes in a way that affects a module, we change the module, record the change with its date on the What Has Changed page in your course, and email you. Changes reach you at no further charge and your access is not shortened by them.
3.2D What we do not undertake, said plainly rather than left to be assumed. We do not undertake that every change in the law will be reflected in the course immediately, or within any stated period. We do not undertake a number of updates, and there may be none if nothing relevant changes. We do not undertake that the course is complete or current as a statement of the law at any moment, and nothing in it is advice on your own matter: clause 4 governs that and is not weakened by this clause. If you need to know the position on a live matter of yours, ask, and that is separate work.
3.2E A change is never used to reduce what you have. We will not remove a module, a document or the certificate from a course you have paid for, and a change made under clause 3.2C does not restart, shorten or otherwise alter your twelve months.
3.2F The second course is Clinic Compliance and Social Media, at doctorlawyeracademy.com/clinic. It is a written course and it is paid. Clause 14.1 says what it costs.

It has the same shape as the sixteenth course (clause 3.2U): eight written modules, each tying the legal rules it teaches to the Act, regulation, notice or judgment it rests on, marking our own readings and the points that are not settled as such, and each leaving you a working sheet for your own practice; a scored quiz at the end of each module on the terms in clause 3.2(b); a final quiz on the terms in clause 3.2(c); a certificate of completion on the terms in clause 3.2(d) and clause 13; and a free bonus module, on premises and records, with a final drill, which is included in the fee, sits outside the eight, is not part of the final quiz and is not needed for the certificate. Module one and its quiz are open before you pay, as clause 3.2A says of the first course. It teaches the law, the records and the process around aesthetic work by homoeopaths, and where the position is not settled it says so. It is general education about the law and is not legal advice for any individual practice. It does not say that any service, procedure or product is permitted for any homoeopath. It teaches no clinical practice, and finishing it is not a qualification, professional certificate, licence or permission to do or offer anything. Its author, Dr. Rupal V. Rana, is a medical practitioner qualified in law and is not a homoeopath. For now it is not part of a pair, it does not count towards the combined credential in clause 13.1A, and seats in it cannot be bought under clause 29.
3.2Y The twentieth course is BHMS Doctors and the CCMP: the Law in Maharashtra, at doctorlawyeracademy.com/homoeoccmp. It is written for registered homoeopathic practitioners in Maharashtra, with or without the Certificate Course in Modern Pharmacology, homoeopathy students and interns, and hospitals and nursing homes that employ homoeopathic doctors. It is about the law on homoeopaths and modern medicine in Maharashtra, including the Certificate Course in Modern Pharmacology and the case on it before the Bombay High Court, and clause 9.1Q says who it is for. It is a written course and it is paid. Clause 14.1AP says what it costs. It has the same shape as the sixteenth course (clause 3.2U): eight written modules, each tying the legal rules it teaches to the Act, regulation, notice or judgment it rests on, marking our own readings and the points that are not settled as such, and each leaving you a working sheet for your own practice; a scored quiz at the end of each module on the terms in clause 3.2(b); a final quiz on the terms in clause 3.2(c); a certificate of completion on the terms in clause 3.2(d) and clause 13; and a free bonus module, a dated summary of what the texts say and what is still open, which is included in the fee, sits outside the eight, is not part of the final quiz and is not needed for the certificate. Module one and its quiz are open before you pay, as clause 3.2A says of the first course. It teaches the law, the records and the process, and where the position is not settled it says so. It describes the law as it stood on the date each module states; the High Court's judgment, when given, may change it. It is general education about the law and is not legal advice for any individual practice. It does not say whether any homoeopath may or may not practise modern medicine. It teaches no clinical practice, and finishing it is not a qualification, professional certificate, licence or permission to do or offer anything. Its author, Dr. Rupal V. Rana, is a medical practitioner qualified in law and is not a homoeopath. For now it is not part of a pair, it does not count towards the combined credential in clause 13.1A, and seats in it cannot be bought under clause 29.
3.2G The first two courses may be bought together, at doctorlawyeracademy.com/bundle, for the one price clause 14.1Y states. One payment opens two separate enrolments, one in each course, each running for its own twelve months from the day of payment, each with its own personal link, its own quizzes and its own certificate on the terms above. A person who already holds one course inside its term is not sold the pair; the site directs them to the other course alone. When both certificates have issued in the same name at the same email address, a third certificate, the combined credential, issues on the terms in clause 13.1A.
3.2A Module one and its quiz are open before you pay. You give us your name and your email address, accept these terms and consent to the processing described in Part B, and module one and its quiz open. No fee is charged, no payment instrument is asked for, and nothing is charged later unless you choose to enrol in the full course. Everything in clauses 10 and 11 about the licence and about what you must not do applies to what you read in module one exactly as it applies to the rest, and clause 5.1(d) of Part B applies too: the pages you read before paying carry your name and your email address in the same way.
3.3 We intend to offer, in future, recorded tracks for a fee, live cohorts for a fee, and workshops held at a physical venue for a fee. Nothing in these terms is a promise that any particular future course will be offered, or offered at any particular time, price or place.
3.4 Where a course is offered, the page for that course tells you what it contains, how long access lasts, and what it costs. That page and these terms are to be read together. If the two conflict on what a course contains or costs, the course page governs on those points and these terms govern on everything else.
3.5 We may improve, correct and update course content. Clause 16 says what happens if a change is material.
4.1 The Academy does not give advice on your own matter, your own patient, your own practice, your own documents or your own dispute.
4.2 The Academy does not provide a formal legal opinion, and does not provide representation before any forum.
4.3 The Academy does not provide clinical teaching. Nothing in any course is teaching on diagnosis, treatment, prescribing, any procedure, or the management of any patient. Nothing in any course is a clinical guideline, a protocol for patient care, or a substitute for your own clinical judgement or for the clinical literature.
4.4 The Academy does not audit your practice, does not certify your practice as compliant with anything, and does not issue any certificate of compliance.
4.5 The Academy does not accept or review your documents, your case papers, your patient records or your correspondence. Clause 6.4 tells you not to send them.
5.1 Everything in a course is general educational material. It is prepared for a general audience of practising doctors. It is not prepared against your facts, and we do not know your facts.
5.2 Two situations that look the same can attract different answers because of a difference in facts, in documents, in dates, in the State you practise in, or in the forum involved.
5.3 Do not act on course material in a live matter, or in any matter where something turns on the answer, without taking advice on your own facts. Clause 7 says how you can do that.
5.4 Statements about the law in a course are prepared with care and are believed to be correct on the date the module is published. The law changes. A module is not a running record of the law, and we do not undertake to tell you when something in it has changed.
5.5 Where a point of law is unsettled, we say so in the module. Where we say a point is unsettled, do not treat it as settled.
6.1 Enrolling in a course does not make you a client of the practice. No relationship of adviser and client arises from your enrolment, from your use of any course, from any certificate, or from any answer given to a question asked inside a course.
6.2 No advocate and client relationship arises from your enrolment, from any course, or from any communication with the Academy. The Academy is education. It is not the practice of law on your behalf.
6.3 It follows that communications between you and the Academy are not protected in the way that communications with an advocate about your own matter are protected. Assume that what you write to the Academy is not privileged.
6.4 Do not send us patient records, patient identifying information, case papers, notices, complaints, correspondence, or anything confidential. If you send us anything of that kind we will not read it beyond what is necessary to identify it, we will tell you, and we will delete it.
6.5 If you want us to look at your own matter, do not send it through the Academy. Clause 7 tells you how it is done.
7.1 A medicolegal risk and compliance review of your own practice is available from the practice on a separate instruction. It is separately agreed, separately scoped and separately charged. It is not part of any Academy fee.
7.2 What the practice issues on such an instruction is a medicolegal risk and compliance review prepared by a medical practitioner qualified in law, for the purpose of identifying regulatory, professional and documentary exposures and recommending their remediation. It is not a formal legal opinion, does not constitute representation before any forum, and is not a certification of compliance.
7.3 Where a matter needs representation before a forum, or needs a formal legal opinion, that work is arranged separately with a High Court advocate. It is instructed separately and charged separately, and the fee for it is agreed with and payable to the advocate. It is not part of any Academy fee and is not included in any Academy course.
7.4 We may tell you, in general terms, that a situation of the kind you describe usually needs advice on the facts or needs an advocate. Telling you that is not advice on your matter.
8.1 We do not promise any outcome, and no course can promise one.
8.2 No course prevents a complaint. Completing any course does not stop a patient complaining, does not stop a State Medical Council or the National Medical Commission opening an enquiry, does not stop a consumer complaint, does not stop a civil claim, and does not stop a criminal process.
8.3 No course is a defence in itself. What a course can do is help you understand the framework you work in, and help you keep records and documents that stand up better than they otherwise would.
8.4 We make no representation that any course is approved, recognised, accredited, endorsed or affiliated by or with any Medical Council, the National Medical Commission, any university, any Bar body, any government department or any other authority. It is not.
8.5 Nothing said by us anywhere, on the Academy or off it, is a guarantee, a warranty or a promise that any particular result will be achieved.
9.1 The Academy is intended for doctors practising in India who hold a current registration. By enrolling you confirm that this describes you, or that you have told us at enrolment that it does not and we have agreed to your enrolment anyway.

Clause 9.1 does not apply to it. It teaches the law, the records and the process around veterinary practice and no clinical practice, and its author is not a veterinarian: nothing in it states a veterinary clinical standard of its own, and every clinical decision it mentions remains the practitioner's own. Where it quotes official or international guidance on a clinical subject, it names the source and quotes it for context only, not as advice.
9.1C The course Certificate Course in Medicine and Law for Advocates and Legal Professionals is open to advocates, law graduates and persons working in legal, compliance, claims, insurance or medico-legal roles in India.

9.1G The course The Resident’s Bedside Handbook: Calls, Notes and Nights on Duty is intended for doctors in India who work as residents, including postgraduate and senior residents, and for interns. Clause 9.1 applies to it, and a provisional registration is a current registration for that purpose.

9.1H The course Aesthetic Practice: Consent, Photographs and Patient Privacy is intended for doctors in India in aesthetic, dermatology, cosmetic surgery and hair practice, including doctors who own or run such a clinic.

Anyone may enrol in it, and clause 9.1 does not apply to it. The law it teaches is the law as it applies in Maharashtra; for any other State, Sheet 6 helps you find that State’s own law, and does no more than point the way. Nothing in it is advice on any project, building, purchase or appointment: before you sign, buy or apply, take advice from your own advocate, chartered accountant, architect or other adviser.
9.1K The course Before the Needle: Acupuncture, Cupping and the Law in Maharashtra is written for acupuncture practitioners and their assistants, doctors and other practitioners who add acupuncture, acupressure or cupping, and therapy-centre owners.

9.1Q The course BHMS Doctors and the CCMP: the Law in Maharashtra is intended for registered homoeopathic practitioners in Maharashtra, with or without the Certificate Course in Modern Pharmacology, homoeopathy students and interns, and hospitals and nursing homes that employ homoeopathic doctors in India. Clause 9.1 does not apply to it. It teaches the law, the records and the process around homoeopaths and modern medicine in Maharashtra, and no clinical practice, and its author is not a homoeopath: nothing in it states a clinical standard of its own, and every clinical decision it mentions remains the practitioner's own. Where it quotes official guidance on a clinical subject, it names the source and quotes it for context only, not as advice. It does not say whether any homoeopath may or may not practise modern medicine, and nothing in it is advice on any practice, patient, complaint or notice. We do not ask for your registration number or any identity number, and you must not give either to us.
9.2 You must be at least eighteen years of age.
9.3 We do not ask for, and you must not give us, your medical registration number. Part B explains what we collect and what we do not.
9.4 One account per person. An account is personal to you. You must not create more than one account, and you must not create an account in someone else's name or in a false name.
9.5 The information you give us at enrolment must be accurate, and you must keep it up to date. Your certificate, if you earn one, is issued in the name on your account.
9.6 You are responsible for keeping your password and any access link confidential. You must not share them with anyone, including a colleague, a junior, a spouse, an assistant or a member of your staff.
9.7 Tell us at once if you think someone else has your credentials or has used your account.
9.8 Anything done through your account is treated as done by you, unless you have told us your credentials were compromised and you could not reasonably have prevented it.
10.1 All course material stays ours, or stays with whoever owns it. You are given a licence to use it. You are not given ownership of it.
10.2 The licence is personal to you, is not transferable, and cannot be sub licensed.
10.3 The licence permits you to access and read or view the material for your own learning, and to apply what you learn in your own practice. It does not permit any of the things listed in clause 11.
10.4 You may take your own handwritten or typed notes for your own use, and you may print or save a copy of any document the Academy expressly provides for download, for your own use.
10.5 The licence lasts as long as your access to the course lasts. It can be revoked if you breach these terms, as clause 18 explains.
10.6 Where the Academy gives you a template, checklist or form and says on its face that you may adapt and use it in your own practice, you may do so for your own practice only. You may not sell it, circulate it, or hold it out as your own work for onward supply to others.
11.1 You must not record any part of any course. This includes audio recording, video recording, screen recording, screenshots, screen capture, and photographing a screen or a page.
11.2 You must not copy, reproduce, download beyond what the platform expressly permits, scrape, translate, adapt, summarise for distribution, or create any derivative work from the material.
11.3 You must not share your login credentials or any access link with anyone.
11.3A Two devices at a time. An enrolment opens on two devices at a time, for example your phone and one computer. On a third device you can move the course there with the button shown, which signs out the device you used least recently (up to five times in thirty days), or ask for a sign-in link, which we send to the email address on your enrolment. Reaching five moves is not a breach; after that, use the sign-in link. Your progress, quiz results and certificate stay with your enrolment whichever device you use. We keep a record of each move, with its date, the country it came from and the type of browser, and we read it only to detect sharing, to deal with a matter under clause 35 and where the law requires. Moving so often, or from so many places, that the account is plainly being used by more than one person is a breach of clause 11.3.
11.4 Subject to clause 35.1, you must not circulate, forward, post, upload or display the material, or any part of it, to anyone or anywhere, including a group on a messaging application, a social media account, a cloud drive, a shared folder, a hospital intranet, a study group or another platform.
11.5 You must not resell the material, licence it, rent it, or use it to provide a paid or unpaid course, workshop, talk or training of your own.
11.6 You must not use the material, or any part of it, to train, fine tune, prompt or build any automated or machine learning system, or submit it to any such system, except a tool you use privately that does not retain or reuse what you submit.
11.7 You must not remove, obscure, alter or defeat any copyright notice, ownership notice, watermark or per viewer marking.
11.7A The invisible marking. Every lesson page carries, in its text, a code that cannot be seen and that identifies the enrolment the page was shown to. It does not change what you read or hear, and it does not stop you taking your own notes under clause 10.4. If material from a course is found circulated in breach of clause 11, we may use the code to identify the enrolment it came from, and clause 18 applies. Clause 3.1(jB) of the Data and Privacy Notice says how the code is made and used.
11.8 You must not attempt to gain access to any part of the platform you have not been given access to, or interfere with the platform's operation or security.
11.9 You must not use the Academy or anything in it to hold yourself out as qualified, certified, accredited or approved in any way you are not. Clause 13 governs what you may say about a certificate.
11.10 If you become aware that any part of the material has been circulated or made available in breach of these terms, whether by you or by anyone else, please tell us.
12.1 The course material, the structure and sequence of the courses, the templates, the checklists, the certificate design, the verification page, the Academy name and the DoctorLawyer™ name and mark are ours or are used by us with permission.
12.2 Copyright subsists in original work from the moment it is created and recorded. It does not depend on registration. The absence of a registration number, a notice or a symbol on a page does not mean the page is unprotected.
12.3 Nothing in these terms transfers any intellectual property to you.
12.4 You may cite a course by name, and may say that you completed it, subject to clause 13.
13.1A The combined credential. When certificates of completion have issued to you for two or more Academy courses, in the same name at the same email address, a further certificate issues recording which courses you completed. It has its own number, verifies on the same public page, is issued at no charge, and carries exactly the standing described in clause 13.3: it is a certificate of completion of two short educational courses and nothing more. It is withdrawn if either underlying certificate is withdrawn under clause 13.6.
13.1 Where a course provides for a certificate, and you complete the course as that course requires, we issue a certificate of completion in the name on your account. For each course, completing the course means passing the quiz at the end of each of its eight modules and then passing its final quiz, as clauses 3.2 and 3.2F describe. The bonus module in each course is outside this and is not required. The certificate names the course it was issued for.
13.1A The certificate is issued in the name on your account, exactly as you entered it. Please enter your name at enrolment exactly as you want it to appear, including the title and any initials. You can ask us to correct it at any time before the certificate issues, and we will. If it has already issued, clause 13.6 applies: the certificate has to be withdrawn and a fresh one issued, which we will do at no charge, but the withdrawn number will show as withdrawn on the verification page.
13.2 A certificate issued by DoctorLawyer™ Academy is a certificate of completion only. It is not a diploma. It is not a certification. It is not recognised by any Medical Council, any university or any Bar body. It does not by itself carry continuing medical education credit.
13.2A The two courses in medicine and law. A certificate issued for the course in clause 3.2K or the course in clause 3.2L records completion of a private course and nothing more. It is not a degree, diploma or recognised qualification of any university. It is not recognised or approved by the Bar Council of India, any State Bar Council, the University Grants Commission or any other regulator. It carries no continuing legal education credit, and it confers no specialist standing in any field. Whether and how an advocate may refer to it is a matter for the rules of that advocate's own Bar Council, which the advocate should read before doing so. Clause 13.4 applies to it as to every certificate.
13.3 The same words appear on the face of every certificate and on the public verification page. Please read them before you rely on a certificate for any purpose.
13.4 You may state truthfully that you completed the named course on the stated date, and you may show the certificate. You must not describe yourself as certified, accredited, qualified, specialised, approved or recognised on the strength of it, and you must not describe the Academy as a recognised or accredited body.
13.5 Each certificate carries a reference that can be checked on the public verification page. We may keep that page available, and keep the record behind it, for as long as the certificate remains capable of verification. Part B says what that means for your data.
13.6 We may withdraw a certificate, and mark it as withdrawn on the verification page, if it was obtained by misrepresentation, by another person using your account, or by a breach of clause 11. We will tell you before we do so, and give you a reasonable opportunity to respond, unless we cannot.
13.7 A certificate is not transferable and has no monetary value.

14.1S Medicolegal Essentials for Hospital Staff costs Rs. 799, paid once, and access to it runs for six months from the day you enrol, not the twelve months in clause 14.1A; everything else clause 14.1A says applies to it. The six months apply to enrolments made on or after 27 September 2026; an enrolment paid for before that day keeps its twelve months. A seat bought by an institution under clause 29 carries twelve months, as clause 29.6 says. Seats in it bought by an institution are priced on the pricing page and governed by clause 29.

14.1AN Your Indemnity Cover: Read It, Keep It, Use It costs Rs. 3,999, paid once, with twelve months of access from the date you enrol, on the terms in clause 14.1A. For now it is not sold as part of a pair or in seats under clause 29.
14.1AO Homoeopaths and Aesthetic Practice: where the law draws the line costs Rs. 4,999, paid once, with twelve months of access from the date you enrol, on the terms in clause 14.1A. For now it is not sold as part of a pair or in seats under clause 29.
14.1AP BHMS Doctors and the CCMP: the Law in Maharashtra costs Rs. 2,999, paid once, with twelve months of access from the date you enrol, on the terms in clause 14.1A. For now it is not sold as part of a pair or in seats under clause 29.
14.1Y The first two courses together. Bought together under clause 3.2G, the two courses cost Rs. 4,999, against Rs. 5,998 for the two bought separately. For our records the one payment is apportioned between the two courses in the proportion of their separate prices; that apportionment is ours and does not affect what you paid or what you get. Clause 15 applies to the pair as one purchase: a refund under clause 15.3 is of the whole fee and requires its conditions to be met in both courses, and there is no refund of one course out of the two.
14.1AA One price. Each course is sold at the one price stated in this clause 14, to everybody. The amount you pay is fixed when your order is created, and nothing is added at the payment step. Anyone who paid a different amount for a course before 28 September 2026 keeps everything that payment bought.
14.1AB A change of price never reaches back. If we change the price of a course, the change applies only to orders created after it, never to a course you have already paid for, and nothing further is ever charged to you for it.
14.1AC The course you pay for is complete on the day you pay. Nothing in it waits for a later release. If we later add another format to the course, such as audio, that is at our discretion and is not part of what you paid for; what we do undertake is that you are never asked for more money for this course whatever it grows into.
14.1AD Recorded audio. Where a module or lesson has a recording, it is read by a digitally synthesised voice, generated by software from the written text of the course. It is not the voice of Dr. Rupal V. Rana or of any other person. The written text is the authoritative version; if the recording and the text ever differ, the text governs.
14.1A The fee gives you all eight modules, the quiz at the end of each module, the final quiz, and the certificate of completion if you pass all of them, for twelve months from the date you enrol. It is one payment. There is no subscription, and nothing renews by itself. When the twelve months end, the modules, quizzes and final quiz close; your quiz results are kept and a certificate already issued does not expire. If you then wish to read the course again you may enrol again at the price in force on that day, on the same account, and your results carry over.
14.1B Anyone who enrolled in the Primer while it was offered at no charge keeps that access at no charge, because version 1.0 of these terms promised exactly that.
14.2 Paid courses are payable in advance and in full, before access begins. We do not offer part payment or credit unless the course page says otherwise.
14.3 Prices are stated on the course page in Indian rupees. Any tax that applies is shown before you pay. If no tax is shown, none is being charged.
14.4 Payment is taken through a payment service provider. We do not receive or hold your card number or your bank account details.
14.5 Access begins when the payment is confirmed to us, and lasts for the period stated on the course page.
14.6 We may change the price of any course, and clauses 14.1 and 14.1Z say that the price of each course rises once its launch places are taken. A change applies only to enrolments made after the change takes effect. It never applies to a course you have already paid for, and it never results in anything further being charged to you for a course you have already bought.
14.7 If a price is displayed incorrectly because of an obvious error, we may decline the enrolment and refund you in full. We will tell you promptly and you may enrol again at the correct price.
15.1 This clause sets out what you are entitled to as of right. It is in addition to your rights under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 and does not replace them or reduce them. Clause 25 explains that.
15.2 Free courses. No fee is paid, so no refund arises. You may stop at any time.
15.3 Recorded tracks bought for a fee. If you ask within seven days of purchase, and you have not completed more than twenty five per cent of the modules, we refund the fee in full and access ends. You do not have to give a reason.
15.4 Live cohorts. If you cancel seven or more days before the first session, we refund the fee in full. If you cancel between six days and forty eight hours before the first session, we refund half the fee. If you cancel within forty eight hours of the first session, no refund arises as of right, but if you tell us before the first session begins we will transfer you once to the next cohort at no further charge.
15.5 Workshops at a physical venue. If you cancel fourteen or more days before the workshop, we refund the fee in full. If you cancel between thirteen and seven days before, we refund half the fee. If you cancel within seven days, no refund arises as of right, but if you tell us at least forty eight hours before we will transfer you once to the next workshop of the same kind at no further charge.
15.6 If we cancel, postpone or do not deliver. If we cancel a course or a session, or move it, or do not make a paid course available, you may choose a full refund of the fee for the part not delivered, or a transfer to the next occasion. For a workshop at a physical venue that we cancel for a reason within our control, we will also consider a reasonable claim for travel or accommodation costs you have actually incurred and cannot recover, supported by receipts.
15.7 If a course is not as described or is materially defective. You are entitled to a refund whether or not any window in this clause has passed. Tell us what the problem is and we will deal with it.
15.8 Errors. If you are charged twice, or charged the wrong amount, we refund the difference in full as soon as we are told or as soon as we notice.
15.9 Outside these windows. If your circumstances fall outside the windows above, write to us with the reason. We will consider it on its merits and answer in writing. We do not operate a rule that refunds are never given.
15.10 How a refund is made. We decide a refund request within seven working days of receiving it. Where a refund is due we process it to the original payment method within seven working days of the decision. How long it then takes to reach you depends on your bank or card issuer.
15.11 Where you are in breach. If we end your access under clause 18, for any reason including a serious breach of clause 11, we retain only the fee attributable to the part of the course you had already received, and we refund the fee for the part you had not received. We do not forfeit the whole fee, and nothing in these terms operates as a penalty.
16.1 We may correct, update and improve course material at any time, and we normally will, because the law changes.
16.2 If we make a change to a paid course you have already bought that materially reduces what you were told you would receive, we will tell you, and you may choose to continue, to transfer, or to end your enrolment and take a refund for the part not received.
16.3 If we have to move the date or time of a live session, we will give you as much notice as we can and offer a recording or an alternative session where we can. Clause 15.6 applies if we cancel.
17.1 Write to doctorlawyerofficial@gmail.com with the word "Complaint" in the subject line, telling us what happened and what you would like done.
17.2 We acknowledge within three working days and give a substantive reply within fifteen working days. If we need longer we will tell you why and when to expect the reply.
17.3 You do not have to use this route before exercising any statutory right, and using it does not stop the clock on any statutory right or delay any remedy available to you.
18.1 You may end your enrolment at any time by telling us. Clause 15 says what happens to a fee.
18.2 We may suspend or end your access if you breach these terms.
18.3 Except in the cases in clause 18.4, we will tell you what we say you have done, give you a reasonable opportunity to respond, and consider what you say before we act.
18.4 We may suspend access immediately, and explain afterwards, where we have reasonable grounds to believe you have shared credentials, recorded a session or a module, or circulated the material. We will tell you within two working days of suspending and you may respond.
18.5 If, after considering your response, we find there was no breach, we restore access at once and extend it by the period of suspension.
18.6 On termination, your licence under clause 10 ends, you must stop using the material and delete any copy you hold, and clauses 11, 12, 13.4, 19, 25 and 27 continue to apply.
18.7 We may end a course or close the Academy. If we do, we will give you reasonable notice and clause 15.6 applies to any fee you have paid for something not yet delivered.
19.1 We will provide the Academy and each course with reasonable care and skill.
19.2 We do not exclude or limit our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
19.3 We do not exclude or limit any right or remedy you have under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019. Nothing in this clause 19 applies to reduce any such right or remedy, and nothing in it is to be read as an attempt to do so.
19.4 We do not put a monetary cap on our liability to you, and we do not ask you to accept one. What we owe you, if we get something wrong, is what the law provides.
19.5 We do not exclude any head of loss that the law would otherwise allow you to recover. The ordinary rules on remoteness of damage apply, as they would in any event, and we do not add to them.
19.6 We are not responsible for the content of any third party website, publication, statute database or material we link to or name in a course, or for anything another participant says in any discussion facility the Academy may provide.
19.7 This clause does not affect what we owe you under clause 15 if we do not deliver.
20.1 You remain responsible for your own practice, your own patients, your own records and your own decisions. Nothing you learn from the Academy moves that responsibility to us.
20.2 You are responsible for checking, before you act on anything, whether it fits your facts, your State and your situation, and for taking advice where it matters.
21.1 We will take reasonable steps to keep the Academy available, but we do not promise that it will be available without interruption or free of error.
21.2 We may take the platform down for maintenance. Where we can plan it, we will give notice.
21.3 If a paid course is substantially unavailable to you for a continuous period of more than seven days for a reason within our control, we will extend your access by at least that period or, if you prefer, refund a fair part of the fee.
22.1 We are not in breach of these terms if we are prevented from performing by something outside our reasonable control, but we will tell you, do what we reasonably can to reduce the effect, and apply clause 15.6 if the course cannot go ahead.
23.1 Part B, the Data and Privacy Notice, explains what personal data we collect, why, on what basis, who can see it, how long we keep it, and what rights you have.
23.2 Your consent to the processing of your personal data is asked for separately from your acceptance of these terms. Accepting these terms is not, by itself, your consent to that processing.
24.1 We write to you at the email address on your account. You must keep it current.
24.1A These are the emails we send, and we send no others.
(a) When you enrol in a paid course, an email confirming your enrolment, containing your access link, the amount paid, the version number and text reference of each instrument you accepted, and a link to each of them.
(b) If you open a module that is free to open, an email containing the link to it, and saying that nothing has been charged.
(c) When you earn a certificate, an email containing your certificate and the address at which anyone can verify it.
(d) If you withdraw your consent, an email confirming what was removed.
(e) A correction, if we find that something we told you was wrong. Clause 19.1 of these terms and the seven day support period govern that; we send it whether or not the period has run, and never charge for it.
(f) A notice of a material change to a course you are enrolled in or to these instruments, as clauses 16 and 26 require.
(g) What has changed in your course, when a module has been changed under clause 3.2C. It lists the changes with their dates and it is part of the course you paid for, so it does not depend on clause 24.1B and it goes to you whether or not you asked for marketing. If you would rather not receive it, say so and we stop, and clause 3.2C is unaffected: the changes are still made and still dated on the page in your course.
(h) The answer to a question you asked inside a course, once, when it is answered. It quotes your question and gives the answer.
(i) Reminders about your course, at most four while your access runs, each sent once: one if you have not started after three days; one if you stop for a fortnight with quizzes left; one a month before your access ends; and one short question a month after you earn your certificate, asking whether you have used anything from the course. Every reminder carries a way to stop them, and stopping them changes nothing else.
(j) What is new in your course, when we add something to a course you are enrolled in, such as a module, a recording, a demonstration template or a new way to use the course. It lists what was added, with its date, and only for the course you are enrolled in. It carries no price, no offer and no other course, so it does not depend on clause 24.1B. Each one carries a link that stops these notes, and stopping them changes nothing else: you keep everything that was added, and the emails in (g) continue.
24.1B Anything else is marketing and you have to ask for it. Clause 7 of Part B governs it, it is a separate tick you may refuse, refusing it does not affect your enrolment, and you can withdraw it at any time without affecting your access.
24.1C Your access link is a key. The email in clause 24.1A(a) contains a link that opens your course without a password. Treat it as you would a password: do not forward that email. If you think someone else has it, tell us and we will issue you a new link and retire the old one. Clause 9.6 applies to it.
24.2 You write to us at doctorlawyerofficial@gmail.com, or at the postal address in clause 1.2.
24.3 An email is treated as received on the working day it is sent, if sent before 6 p.m. on a working day, and otherwise on the next working day.
25.1 These terms, and any dispute about them or about a course, are governed by the law of India.
25.2 We do not confine you to the courts of any one place. Where a dispute is not a consumer dispute, the ordinary rules on jurisdiction decide where it may be brought, and you may bring it wherever those rules allow.
25.3 Nothing in these terms takes away, limits, excludes or ousts any right or remedy you have under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019. In particular:
(a) you may make a complaint to a consumer commission, and nothing in clause 25.2 or anywhere else in these terms applies to or restricts such a complaint;
(b) you may file that complaint where you reside or personally work for gain, as well as where we carry on business, and no term of these terms confines you to any one place;
(c) we do not require you to go to arbitration, and no term of these terms sends any dispute with a consumer to arbitration or makes arbitration a precondition to anything;
(d) the consumer legislation is in addition to, and not in derogation of, any other law, and these terms are to be read consistently with that.
25.4 If a competent authority finds any term of these terms to be unfair to you, that term is to be treated as removed and the rest of these terms continue to apply.
25.5 Clause 17 is available to you, but it is not a precondition to anything in this clause 25.
26.1 We may change these terms. Every version carries a version number and a date, and the current version is always on the Academy.
26.2 A change applies from the date we publish it and applies to enrolments made after that date.
26.3 If you are already enrolled in a paid course, a change that materially reduces your rights does not apply to that course unless you accept it. If you do not accept it, your existing terms continue for that course, or you may end your enrolment and take a refund for the part not received.
26.4 For free courses and for continued use of the Academy generally, we will notify you of a material change by email and by a notice on the Academy, and continued use after that notice is acceptance of the new version.
26.5 We keep every superseded version and will give you a copy of any version on request.
27.1 If any clause is found to be unenforceable, the rest continue.
27.2 If we do not enforce a term on one occasion, that does not mean we give it up.
27.3 You may not transfer your rights under these terms to anyone. We may transfer ours if the practice is reorganised or transferred, but not in a way that reduces your rights, and we will tell you.
27.4 The course page for your course, and Part B, form part of what is agreed between us. Nothing in these terms displaces anything we have actually said to you, and nothing in them affects your statutory rights.
27.5 These terms are written in English. If we publish a translation and the two differ, the English version governs, save where the law requires otherwise.
28.1 Email: doctorlawyerofficial@gmail.com. Telephone: +91 88509 78548. Post: 412, Bldg 2, Wing 4, Mandpeshwar Dham CHS, Laxman Mhatre Marg, SVP Road, Borivali (W), Mumbai 400103.
28.2 For anything about your personal data, use the grievance contact in Part B.
29.1 A clinic, a hospital, a company or a department may buy five, ten or twenty five seats in any course, or in all three together, at the prices published at doctorlawyeracademy.com/teams. These terms apply to a team purchase with the additions in this clause, and where this clause differs from another clause, this clause governs for that purchase.
29.2 The institution buys seats; it does not enrol anybody. We issue one claim link for each seat. A seat becomes an enrolment only when a person opens that link, gives their own name and email address, and accepts these terms and the Data and Privacy Notice themselves. Until then nobody is enrolled and no personal data of any participant has been given to us.
29.3 The participant is our student, not the institution. Everything in these terms about a participant applies to the person who claims a seat, in their own right. Their certificate is issued in their name and is theirs. It is not affected by their leaving the institution, and the institution cannot transfer, surrender or cancel it.
29.4 What the institution is shown. The institution is given a private link showing, for each seat: whether it has been claimed, the name of the person who claimed it, how many of the eight numbered modules that person has passed, and whether their certificate has issued.
29.5 What the institution is never shown. We do not show the institution, and we will not supply it on request, any answer given by a participant, any quiz score, the number of attempts taken, any feedback the participant has written, or anything the participant has asked us. A participant is told all of this before they claim a seat, and their consent under clause 29.2 is given knowing it.
29.6 The term runs from activation. The twelve months of access run from the day we activate the order, which is the day cleared payment reaches us, and not from the day each seat is claimed. Every seat on one order therefore ends on the same day. That date is stated on the institution's dashboard and in the letter sent to each participant when they claim.
29.7 An unclaimed seat may be passed on. While a seat is unclaimed the institution may give its link to anybody it chooses, as often as it likes, within the twelve months. A claimed seat cannot be moved to another person, because it has become that person's enrolment and carries their certificate.
29.8 One seat to a person on any one order. An email address that has claimed a seat on an order cannot claim a second seat on the same order.
29.9 Payment and refunds. A team purchase is paid in advance, by card, by UPI or by bank transfer against an invoice, and seats are issued when payment reaches us. Clause 15 applies to the institution as the buyer: within seven days of activation we refund in full for every seat that is still unclaimed, and a claimed seat is treated as clause 15 treats an individual enrolment. Your rights under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 are unaffected, and clause 15.2 continues to apply to any participant in their own right.
29.10 No GST is charged while the practice remains below the threshold for registration in section 22(1) of the Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017. The document we issue is a bill of supply and not a tax invoice, and no input tax credit arises on it. We do not ask for, and do not print, any tax registration number or identity number.
29.11 We do not act for the institution. Clauses 5, 6 and 7 apply to a team purchase exactly as they apply to an individual, and nothing in a team purchase creates any relationship of adviser and client, or of advocate and client, with the institution or with any participant.
30.1 We may give a complimentary place on any course by a gift link. A gift link opens one place, on one course, for one person, and nothing is charged for it, then or later. These terms apply to a complimentary place with the additions in this clause, and where this clause differs from another clause, this clause governs for that place.
30.2 The person who uses the link enrols in their own right. A place becomes an enrolment only when a person opens the link, gives their own name and email address, and accepts these terms and the Data and Privacy Notice themselves. The enrolment, and the access to it, are tied to that email address. Everything in these terms about a participant applies to that person.
30.3 The link is spent when it is used. Once one person has enrolled through it, it opens nothing further. A link must be used by the date shown on it; after that it lapses unused. We may withdraw a link that has not been used.
30.4 How long the place runs. A complimentary place runs from the day the link is used until the date stated in the enrolment email. That period is never longer than a paid enrolment in the same course carries. When it ends, the modules, quizzes and final quiz close as clause 14.1A describes; quiz results are kept and a certificate already issued does not expire. The person may at any time buy the course at the price in force on that day, on the same account, and their results carry over; the twelve months in clause 14.1A then run from that payment.
30.5 Nothing is paid, so nothing is refunded. Clause 15 does not apply to a complimentary place. Your rights under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019, so far as they apply, are unaffected.
30.6 What the giver sees. Whoever passed the link on to you is not shown your progress, your answers, your scores or your certificate by us.
31.1 We may publish a coupon: a code that takes a stated amount off the price of a stated course, or of stated courses, for orders created between stated dates. Clause 14.1AA is read with this clause: the price of each course stays the same for everybody, and anyone who applies a coupon that is running pays that price less the amount of the coupon.
31.2 One coupon per purchase. Only one coupon can be applied to an order. Coupons never add together.
31.3 Only the stated courses, and only between the stated dates. A coupon applies only to the courses it is published for, and only to an order created on or after its first day and on or before its last day, as stated where it is published. Unless the coupon says so, it does not apply to the courses bought together under clause 14.1Y, to seats bought under clause 29, to a place given by gift link under clause 30, or to enrolling again in a course whose access has ended. A coupon never applies to the courses in clauses 3.2K and 3.2L.
31.4 Once for each email address. Unless the coupon says otherwise, it can be used once for each email address. Where a coupon can be used only a limited number of times in all, that limit is stated where it is published.
31.5 No cash value. A coupon has no cash value. It cannot be exchanged for money, for credit or for another course, and it may not be sold.
31.6 A coupon never reaches back. A coupon applies only to an order created while it is running. It does not apply to a course you paid for before you used it, and no part of an earlier payment becomes refundable as of right because a coupon is published later.
31.7 A refund returns what you actually paid. Where a refund is due under clause 15, it is of the amount you actually paid after the coupon, never of the price before it.
31.8 What you are shown. Before you pay, the order shows the price of the course, the coupon with the amount it takes off, and the amount you will pay. Your receipt shows the same three figures.
31.9 If a coupon is published in error. We may withdraw a coupon before its last day only if it was published in error. An order already created with it is honoured.
32.1 The two courses together. Clinic Compliance and Social Media (clause 3.2F) and The Doctor’s Social Media Playbook (clause 3.2N) may be bought together, at doctorlawyeracademy.com/playbook-pair, for Rs. 9,999, paid once, against Rs. 11,498 for the two bought separately. The amount is fixed when your order is created, as clause 14.1AA says.
32.2 Two enrolments. One payment opens two separate enrolments, one in each course, each running for its own twelve months from the day of payment, each with its own personal link, its own quizzes and its own certificate on the terms above. Clause 9.1 says who the first course is for, and clause 9.1F who the second is for.
32.3 Not sold to someone who already has either course. A person who already holds either course inside its term is not sold the pair; the site directs them to the other course alone.
32.4 How we record the payment. For our records the one payment is apportioned between the two courses in the proportion of their separate prices; that apportionment is ours and does not affect what you paid or what you get.
32.5 Refunds. Clause 15 applies to the pair as one purchase: a refund under clause 15.3 is of the whole fee and requires its conditions to be met in both courses, and there is no refund of one course out of the two.
32.6 Coupons and the combined credential. A coupon does not apply to the pair unless the coupon says so (clause 31). The Playbook does not count towards the combined credential in clause 13.1A.
33.1 Who holds it. You hold a credit of Rs. 2,000 towards Aesthetic Practice: Consent, Photographs and Patient Privacy (clause 3.2P) if you have made a payment for Aesthetic and Dermatology Practice (clause 3.2, the third course) that was enrolled under your email address and has not been refunded when you order. A complimentary place given by gift link (clause 30) is not a payment by you and does not carry the credit. If you paid for Aesthetic and Dermatology Practice under a different email address, write to us with the payment reference and we will apply the credit to the address you give us.
33.2 How it applies. When you type that email address at the checkout of Aesthetic Practice: Consent, Photographs and Patient Privacy, the order applies the credit by itself and shows, before you pay, the price of the course, your credit and the amount you will pay; the pay button shows the amount you will pay. Your receipt shows the same three figures. The price of the course is the same for everybody (clause 14.1AA); the credit is a sum taken off what you pay because you have already bought Aesthetic and Dermatology Practice from us.
33.3 Once, and for this course only. The credit can be used once for each email address, only on Aesthetic Practice: Consent, Photographs and Patient Privacy, and not on a renewal, a gift link, a pair or seats. It is used up by an order that is paid, and it is not restored if that order is later refunded. A later refund of Aesthetic and Dermatology Practice does not change an order already made with the credit. It does not add to a coupon: if you also hold a coupon for this course, you choose which to use, and entering the coupon code replaces the credit (clause 31.2).
33.4 No cash value. The credit has no cash value. It cannot be exchanged for money or for another course, and it may not be transferred. Where a refund of Aesthetic Practice: Consent, Photographs and Patient Privacy is due under clause 15, it is of the amount you actually paid after the credit (clause 31.7).
33.5 Ending it. We may end the credit only by publishing, on this page and on the Pricing page, a date at least thirty days ahead after which orders no longer receive it. An order created before that date is honoured, and ending it does not affect anything you have already paid for.
34.1 Who holds it. You hold a credit of Rs. 2,000 towards Before the First Embryo: Opening and Marketing an IVF Centre Within the Law (clause 3.2T) if you have made a payment for Before the First Admission: Opening a Nursing Home or Hospital in Maharashtra (clause 3.2R) that was enrolled under your email address and has not been refunded when you order. A complimentary place given by gift link (clause 30) is not a payment by you and does not carry the credit. If you paid for Before the First Admission: Opening a Nursing Home or Hospital in Maharashtra under a different email address, write to us with the payment reference and we will apply the credit to the address you give us.
34.2 How it applies. When you type that email address at the checkout of Before the First Embryo: Opening and Marketing an IVF Centre Within the Law, the order applies the credit by itself and shows, before you pay, the price of the course, your credit and the amount you will pay; the pay button shows the amount you will pay. Your receipt shows the same three figures. The price of the course is the same for everybody (clause 14.1AK); the credit is a sum taken off what you pay because you have already bought Before the First Admission: Opening a Nursing Home or Hospital in Maharashtra from us.
34.3 Once, and for this course only. The credit can be used once for each email address, only on Before the First Embryo: Opening and Marketing an IVF Centre Within the Law, and not on a renewal, a gift link, a pair or seats. It is used up by an order that is paid, and it is not restored if that order is later refunded. A later refund of Before the First Admission: Opening a Nursing Home or Hospital in Maharashtra does not change an order already made with the credit. It does not add to a coupon: if you also hold a coupon for this course, you choose which to use, and entering the coupon code replaces the credit (clause 31.2).
34.4 No cash value. The credit has no cash value. It cannot be exchanged for money or for another course, and it may not be transferred. Where a refund of Before the First Embryo: Opening and Marketing an IVF Centre Within the Law is due under clause 15, it is of the amount you actually paid after the credit (clause 31.7).
34.5 Ending it. We may end the credit only by publishing, on this page and on the Pricing page, a date at least thirty days ahead after which orders no longer receive it. An order created before that date is honoured, and ending it does not affect anything you have already paid for.
35.1 You may discuss what you learn with colleagues, use it as learning in your own practice (it is not advice on any patient or case) and keep your own notes for your own use. You may quote a short passage when you discuss a point, saying where it comes from. You may not give anyone else your access, or copies of the material. If several people need the course, ask us about group seats.
35.2 You may use assistive technology, including screen readers, read-aloud, magnifiers and translation, for your own study, and clause 11 does not stop this. If a page does not work with your tool, or you need the material in another form because of a disability, write to doctorlawyerofficial@gmail.com and we will give it to you in a usable form for your own use.
35.3 If something suggests that a course is being shared or copied, we will first write to you and ask. No single signal (a device move, a place, a busy reading day) is treated as proof. If we then think clause 11 may have been broken, we will tell you in writing what we found and give you seven days from that written notice to reply, and your access continues during those seven days. If, after your reply, we reasonably believe clause 11 was broken, a person, not an automatic process, decides whether your access ends. Being signed out of a device under clause 11.3A is not a finding of breach. You may also take any complaint to a Consumer Commission.
35.4 If we then end your access, we refund the part of the fee for the days left in the access period of your enrolment, by the method used to pay, to whoever paid it, within fourteen days of our decision (your bank may take a few more days to show it). If we ended it by mistake, or the fault was ours, we restore your access or refund the whole fee, as you choose. Nothing in this clause takes away any right you have under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019.
35.5 The courses are our own work. Unauthorised copying or sharing of them may infringe copyright. Official texts of statutes and judgments quoted in the courses are not ours, and nothing here stops you reading or quoting them; our explanations, summaries, translations, quizzes, templates and audio are.
36.1 What it is. Doctor All-Access, at doctorlawyeracademy.com/allaccess, is Rs. 29,999, paid once, for the twelve courses written for doctors: Medicolegal Essentials; Clinic Compliance and Social Media; Aesthetic and Dermatology Practice; The Doctor’s Social Media Playbook; The Resident’s Bedside Handbook: Calls, Notes and Nights on Duty; Aesthetic Practice: Consent, Photographs and Patient Privacy; 13 May 2027: Is Your Clinic Ready for the DPDP Act?; Before the First Admission: Opening a Nursing Home or Hospital in Maharashtra; Before the Needle: Acupuncture, Cupping and the Law in Maharashtra; Before the First Embryo: Opening and Marketing an IVF Centre Within the Law; Teleconsult: The Comprehensive Course; Your Indemnity Cover: Read It, Keep It, Use It. The separate prices of the twelve courses on this site on 7 November 2026 add up to Rs. 78,989. It is not a subscription: it does not renew, and nothing is charged later.
36.2 Twelve enrolments. One payment opens an enrolment in each of the twelve courses, each running for twelve months from the day of payment, each with its own personal link, quizzes, handouts, templates and certificate on the terms above. The courses for veterinarians, dentists, homoeopaths, hospital staff, advocates and law students are not included. A course for doctors that we open during your twelve months will be added to your Doctor All-Access, at no charge, within three working days of opening, if its price on the day it opens is Rs. 15,000 or less. Your access to it ends when your twelve months end, unless you already hold it for longer. A course for doctors priced above Rs. 15,000 is sold separately, and its page says so. Clause 9.1 says who the courses are for.
36.3 A credit for courses already bought. What you paid for any of the twelve courses, after deducting any refund and any coupon or credit under clauses 31, 33 and 34, under the email address you enrol with, in the twelve months before your order, is credited against the price, up to Rs. 25,000, so the least you pay is Rs. 4,999. A payment for seats bought by an institution, or for an earlier Doctor All-Access, is not credited. Because the credit depends on what you have bought, we show it only through a personal link sent to that email address; the link shows the price, your credit and the amount you will pay, before you pay. If the link has lapsed, ask again on the page. If you paid under a different email address, write to us from both addresses, with the payment details, before you pay. A course you already hold starts a fresh twelve months on the day of payment, and your progress, quiz results and certificates in it are kept.
36.4 Not sold twice. An email address that holds Doctor All-Access inside its twelve months is not sold it again.
36.5 How the payment is apportioned. We apportion the amount you paid in money for Doctor All-Access between the twelve courses in proportion to their separate prices on the day of payment. We use this only for clause 36.6 and for our records. It does not change what you paid or what you receive.
36.6 Refunds. Clause 15 applies to Doctor All-Access as one purchase. A refund under clause 15.3 is of the whole amount paid, if you ask within seven days of payment and have completed no more than a quarter of the modules of any one course and no more than eight modules in all, counting only modules completed on or after the day of payment. Under clause 15.3 there is no refund of only some of the courses. When that refund is made, the access opened by Doctor All-Access ends, and a course you held before it returns to the end date it had before. The credit under clause 36.3 is not refunded in money. Your rights under clauses 15.6 onwards, and under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019, are not affected; where one of those clauses gives a refund for one course, it is the part of the amount paid in money that clause 36.5 apportions to that course, and for a course you held before Doctor All-Access, your rights under clause 15 from its own purchase are kept as well.
36.7 Coupons and credits. A coupon does not apply to Doctor All-Access unless the coupon says so (clause 31), and the credits in clauses 33 and 34 do not apply to it. The credit in clause 36.3 has no cash value, cannot be exchanged for money and may not be transferred.
36.8 Fair use. Clause 35 applies to each of the twelve enrolments.
37.1 What they are. Two library cards, each paid once, at doctorlawyeracademy.com/librarycard: thirty days for Rs. 1,499, and twelve months for Rs. 9,999. Neither is a subscription: a card does not renew, no mandate is taken, and nothing is charged later. When a card ends you may buy another, or not; we send no reminder to renew.
37.2 One course at a time. A card lends you one course at a time, chosen from the courses written for doctors other than Aesthetic Practice: Consent, Photographs and Patient Privacy. The courses for veterinarians, dentists, homoeopaths, hospital staff, advocates and law students are not lent. You choose the first course when you pay. On the thirty day card you may switch to another course once, when seven days have passed since you borrowed the first; on the twelve month card you may switch once in every thirty days. A switch closes the earlier loan, and your progress in it is kept. Every loan ends when the card ends. A card cannot be changed for the other card while it runs.
37.3 What a loan opens. Every lesson and quiz of the course on loan. The certificate, the handouts and the bonus module (including any templates) are not part of a loan; they come with the course itself. If you buy a course you have on loan, they open, and your progress is kept.
37.4 When a card is not sold. A card is not sold to an email address that already has a card running, or that holds Doctor All-Access (clause 36), and a course you already hold cannot be borrowed. If a card is sold to you in breach of this clause, we refund the whole amount paid on request, whenever you ask, and the card ends.
37.5 Refunds. Clause 15 applies to a card as one purchase. A refund under clause 15.3 is of the whole amount paid, if you ask within seven days of payment, have not switched, and have completed no more than a quarter of the modules of the course on loan. When it is made, the loan ends. Your rights under clauses 15.6 onwards, and under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019, are not affected; where clause 15.6 or 15.7 applies, the refund is of the whole amount paid; clause 15.8 applies as written; and where we make a refund under clause 15.9, it is in proportion to the days of the card left, unless we say otherwise.
37.6 Coupons and credits. A coupon does not apply to a card unless the coupon says so (clause 31). What you paid for a card is not credited towards buying a course or Doctor All-Access, and the credits in clauses 33, 34 and 36.3 do not apply to a card. If you buy Doctor All-Access while a card runs, the course on loan becomes yours under clause 36, and the card is not refunded for that reason.
37.7 Fair use. Clause 35 applies to every loan, as it applies to any enrolment.
37.8 If the course on loan becomes unavailable. If the course on loan is withdrawn, or is unavailable to you for more than seven days running for a reason within our control, you may switch to another course without using a switch; and if no course you want is available to borrow, we refund the amount paid in proportion to the days of the card left.

Clause 3.2 now says five courses; new clause 3.2J describes it and says that, for now, it is not part of the pair, does not count towards the combined credential and is not sold in seats; new clause 9.1B says it is for registered veterinary practitioners, veterinary students and those who work in veterinary practice, that clause 9.1 does not apply to it, that it teaches law and records and no clinical practice, and that its author is not a veterinarian; new clause 14.1T states its founding price of Rs. 1,499 for its first 200 paid enrolments, counted separately, and its standing price of Rs. 3,499. Summary item 2 now names all five courses and their prices; it had not been updated when the hospital staff course was added. Nothing about the other courses, the pair or seats changed.
Version 1.18 replaced version 1.17. What changed in 1.18: new clause 11.7A, the invisible marking: every lesson page carries a code that cannot be seen and that identifies the enrolment it was shown to, and it may be used to identify the source of a copy circulated in breach of clause 11. Summary item 6 now mentions it. Clauses 14.1AA(a) and 14.1AC no longer refer to recordings: the founding and standing prices of Medicolegal Essentials are for the same written course, which is complete on the day you pay, and any format added later is at our discretion. Nothing else changed.
Version 1.17 replaced version 1.16. What changed in 1.17: clause 7.3 now says that representation and formal legal opinions are arranged separately with "a High Court advocate", in place of "an empanelled advocate of the High Court of Bombay". Nothing else changed.
Version 1.16 replaced version 1.15. What changed in 1.16: new clause 11.3A, one device at a time. An enrolment opens on one device at a time; opening the personal link elsewhere moves it; a signed out device can ask for a sign-in link to the enrolment email; progress and certificates are unaffected; each move is recorded and read only to detect sharing. Nothing else changed.
Version 1.15 replaced version 1.14. What changed in 1.15: a fourth course, Medicolegal Essentials for Hospital Staff, at doctorlawyeracademy.com/staff. Clause 3.2 now says four courses; new clause 3.2I describes it; new clause 9.1A says it is for people who work in a hospital, nursing home, clinic, laboratory or diagnostic centre in any role, and that clause 9.1 does not apply to it; new clause 14.1S states its one price of Rs. 299. Nothing about the other courses, the pair or seats changed.
Version 1.14 replaced version 1.13. What changed in 1.14: new clause 29, seats bought by an institution. It says that the institution buys seats and does not enrol anybody; that a seat becomes an enrolment only when a person claims it in their own name and accepts these terms; that the participant is our student and the certificate is theirs; what the institution is shown, which is completion only, and what it is never shown, which is answers, scores, attempts, feedback and questions; that the twelve months run from activation so that every seat on an order ends together; that an unclaimed seat may be passed on and a claimed one may not; one seat to a person on an order; how clause 15 applies to a buyer of seats; the GST position; and that clauses 5, 6 and 7 apply unchanged. No existing clause was renumbered and nothing about an individual enrolment changed.
Version 1.13 replaces version 1.12 and is the version in force. What changed in 1.13: a third course, Aesthetic and Dermatology Practice, at doctorlawyeracademy.com/aesthetic. Clause 3.2 now says three courses; new clause 3.2H describes the third; new clause 14.1X states its founding price of Rs. 2,999, its standing price of Rs. 4,999 and its separately counted 200 founding places; clause 13.1A now issues the combined credential for any two or more courses; summary item 2 is reworded. Nothing about the first two courses or the pair changed.
Version 1.12 replaces version 1.11 and is the version in force. What changed in 1.12: new clause 3.2G, the two courses bought together; new clause 13.1A, the combined credential; new clause 14.1Y, the price of the pair, Rs. 1,999 founding and Rs. 4,999 standing, and how clause 15 applies to it; and clause 14.1A now says what happens at the end of the twelve months, that results and certificates are kept and that enrolling again is possible at the then price. Summary item 2 is reworded to mention the pair. Nothing about either course alone changed.
Version 1.11 replaces version 1.10 and is the version in force. What changed in 1.11: a second course, Clinic Compliance and Social Media, at doctorlawyeracademy.com/clinic. Clause 3.2 now says the Academy offers two courses and new clause 3.2F describes the second; clause 13.1 says what completion means for each and that the certificate names its course; new clause 14.1Z states the second course's founding price of Rs. 1,499, its standing price of Rs. 3,499, and that its 200 founding places are counted separately; summary item 2 and clause 14.6 are reworded to cover both. Nothing about the first course changed.
Version 1.10 replaced version 1.9. What changed in 1.10: the course now asks you a question at the end of each module, and one more on your certificate page. Part B records it: clause 3.1(h) says what is kept, clause 5.1(h) says it is read to decide what gets rewritten and filmed, and clause 7.2A says that nothing you write is ever quoted in public unless you tick the box beside the box, which is never ticked for you. Clause 12.5B already required it to be deleted on withdrawal and it is.
Version 1.9 replaced version 1.8. What changed in 1.9: the standing price only. It is Rs. 2,499, which is what this course costs once its eight recorded modules are in it. The founding price is unchanged at Rs. 999 for the first 200 paid enrolments, and everything clause 14.1AA says about how the two figures relate is unchanged with it.
Version 1.8 replaced version 1.7. What changed in 1.8: clauses 3.2C, 3.2D and 3.2E, which say how far we go in keeping the course current and, more importantly, how far we do not. Each module is reviewed at least once in your twelve months, changes are dated on a What Has Changed page in your course and emailed to you at no further charge, and a change never shortens your access or removes anything you paid for. We do not undertake that the course is current at any given moment, because one amendment we had not reached would make that untrue. Clause 24.1A(g) adds the letter that carries those changes and records that it is part of the course rather than marketing.
Version 1.7 replaced version 1.6. What changed in 1.7: the price, and the reason for it. The founding price is Rs. 999, limited to the first 200 paid enrolments. The standing price is Rs. 2,499, which is what this course costs once its eight recorded modules are in it. Clause 14.1AA(a) now says in terms that the two figures are not the same product on two different days: what is finished today is the whole written course, and a founding member gets the recordings at no further charge if they are released inside their twelve months. Clause 14.1AC says what happens if they are never released, which is that the written course was complete on the day you paid and nothing further is ever asked of you.
Version 1.6 replaced version 1.5. What changed in 1.6: the price only. The standing price of the course is Rs. 2,499 and the inaugural launch offer is Rs. 999, paid once, still limited to the first 200 paid enrolments. Everything clause 14.1 says about how the two figures relate is unchanged, and nothing further is ever charged for a course already paid for.
Version 1.5 replaced version 1.4. What changed in 1.5: nothing in these Terms. Part B gains clause 12.5B, which sets out in terms what we remove when you withdraw: your name, email address, mobile number, specialty, progress and quiz results go from the course register, from our enquiry records, from any unfinished checkout and from the record of what we emailed you, and the acceptance record under clause 10.4 is kept and carries the name and address you gave at the time. We published that because the confirmation we send on a withdrawal has to describe what was actually done.
Version 1.4 replaced version 1.3. What changed in 1.4: the Academy now sends email, so clause 24.1A lists every email we send and says we send no others, clause 24.1B separates that from marketing, and clause 24.1C warns that the access link in your enrolment email is a key and should not be forwarded. In Part B, clause 5.1(k) records sending those emails as a purpose, clause 8.3A names our actual service providers, clause 9.4A says where each of them holds data, clause 10.2A covers the record we keep of emails sent, and clause 12.1A confirms that a withdrawal is confirmed to you in writing. Nothing in 1.4 reduces anything you have.
What changed in 1.3: the course is named Medicolegal Essentials; clause 3.2 states its size; and clause 14.1 is rewritten so that Rs. 2,499 is stated as the standing price of the course and Rs. 999 as an inaugural launch offer limited to the first 200 paid enrolments, with clause 14.1AA explaining why that comparison is a fair one and clause 14.1AB protecting anyone who began paying as the last place went. Nothing in 1.3 reduces anything you have.
What changed in 1.2: clause 3.2 now sets out what the Medicolegal Essentials course actually consists of, including the final quiz; clause 3.2A records that module one and its quiz are open before you pay; clause 13.1 states what completing the course means and clause 13.1A says the certificate is issued in the name you entered; clause 14.1 states the inaugural launch price of Rs. 999, the date it holds until, and that the course costs Rs. 2,499 afterwards; and clause 14.6 says expressly that a rise never results in anything further being charged for a course already bought. Nothing in 1.2 reduces anything you have.
What changed in version 1.1 from version 1.0. What changed: the fee for the Medicolegal Essentials course is stated in clause 14.1; the monetary cap on our liability has been removed from clause 19.4; the exclusion of heads of loss has been removed from clause 19.5; the clause naming a single court has been removed from clause 25.2; the forfeiture of the whole fee on termination for breach has been removed from clause 15.11; and the entire agreement provision has been removed from clause 27.4. Every change reduces what we claim for ourselves. None reduces anything you have. Clause 26.5 applies: we keep every superseded version and will give you a copy on request.
