Effective November 6, 2026. Applies to every student, graduate, mentor and visitor.

Codecraft Academy works because thousands of people learn, run code and help each other in the same place. This policy explains what is and isn't allowed, so the platform stays fast, fair and safe for everyone. It forms part of our terms of service.

1. Your account

• Each account is for one person. Don't share your sign-in, even with family, or sell or transfer your account.
• Keep your password private and turn on two-step sign-in in Account settings.
• Use your real name in live sessions and mentor calls. A display name is fine in the community.
• Company plans: seats can be reassigned by your administrator, but not shared at the same time.

2. Course materials

Lessons, videos, exercises and solutions are the work of our instructors. You may use them for your own learning, and you own the code you write. You may not:

• Download videos with third-party tools, or republish lessons, exercises or solutions anywhere
• Use the materials to teach your own paid course or bootcamp
• Scrape the platform, or use automated tools to copy content

You're welcome to share your finished projects, including those built in our units, in your portfolio and on public code hosting sites.

3. Academic honesty and AI tools

Employers trust our graduates because their portfolios show what they can actually do. To protect that:

When you use an AI tool for a graded project, add a short note in your submission saying how. That's not a penalty: it helps your reviewer give useful feedback.

4. The code editor and hosted projects

The in-browser editor runs your code on our servers, shared with every other student. Use it only for course work and your own learning projects. You must not use it to:

• Attack, scan or overload any other system, website or network
• Mine cryptocurrency, run bots or send bulk email
• Host or link to malware, phishing pages or illegal content
• Get around time limits, memory limits or other safeguards
• Store passwords, payment details or personal data belonging to other people

Projects you deploy through the platform must follow the same rules. We may stop any process that harms the service, without notice.

5. The community

Our community is where career changers ask questions they might feel embarrassed to ask anywhere else. Keep it that way:

• Be kind to beginners. Everyone here was one.
• Critique code, never the person who wrote it.
• No harassment, discrimination, threats or sexual content.
• No spam, recruiting without permission, or promotion of paid services.
• Don't share other members' personal information or private messages.

Mentors and moderators may edit or remove posts that break these rules, and will usually tell you why.

6. Security research

If you find a vulnerability in Codecraft Academy, please report it to hello@example.com with "Security" in the subject line, and give us reasonable time to fix it before telling anyone else. Don't access other members' data, disrupt the service or run automated scanners against it. We won't take action against anyone who reports a problem in good faith and follows these rules, and we credit researchers on our roadmap page if they'd like.

7. How we enforce this policy

1. A reminder. Most problems are honest mistakes. We'll explain what went wrong and how to fix it.
2. A warning. For repeated or more serious problems, a formal warning by email, and work may be removed or regraded.
3. Suspension or removal. For serious breaches, such as attacking the platform, harassment or repeated plagiarism, we may suspend or close the account, and withdraw any certificate. Fees are not refunded in these cases.

You can ask for any decision to be reviewed by writing to hello@example.com within 14 days. A team member who wasn't involved will look at it again.

We may update this policy as the platform changes, and will tell members by email at least 14 days before any significant change takes effect.
