Terms of Service
Last updated: October 2026
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of Ed Tech Ranking (the "Site"), operated by Ed Tech Ranking Media ("we," "us," or "our"). By accessing or using the Site, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.
What Ed Tech Ranking Is
Ed Tech Ranking publishes independent ratings, reviews, comparisons, and guides covering online learning platforms. Our scores and rankings reflect our own testing and editorial judgment, carried out according to the criteria described on our Methodology page. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or acting on behalf of the platforms we review unless explicitly stated.
Editorial Content Is Our Opinion
Reviews, scores, rankings, and comparisons on this Site represent our assessment at the time of testing or last update, not a guarantee of any platform's current pricing, features, or quality. Online learning platforms change frequently — course catalogs expand or shrink, pricing changes, and certificate programs get restructured. We make a reasonable effort to keep content current and note each page's last-updated date where relevant, but we cannot guarantee that every detail reflects a platform's offering at the exact moment you read it. Always verify pricing, course availability, and certificate details directly with the platform before making a purchasing decision.
Affiliate Links and Monetization
Some links on this Site are affiliate links. If you sign up for or purchase a course or subscription through one of these links, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. Affiliate relationships never influence our scores, rankings, or editorial conclusions — platforms are tested and scored using the same criteria regardless of any commercial relationship. Full details are available on our Disclosure page.
Acceptable Use
You agree not to:
- Use the Site for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any applicable local, national, or international law.

Intellectual Property
All original content on this Site — including text, rankings, scores, graphics, and the overall site design — is owned by Ed Tech Ranking Media or licensed to us, and is protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. You may link to our pages and quote brief excerpts with proper attribution and a link back to the original page. You may not republish, redistribute, or reproduce substantial portions of our content, including our scores or rankings, without prior written permission.
Platform names, logos, and trademarks referenced on this Site belong to their respective owners and are used for identification and editorial comparison purposes only, under fair use. Their use does not imply any endorsement, sponsorship, or affiliation unless explicitly stated.
Third-Party Links and Platforms
The Site contains links to third-party online learning platforms and other external websites that we do not own or control. We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, availability, pricing, terms of service, or privacy practices of any third-party site. Visiting a linked platform is subject to that platform's own terms and privacy policy, which we encourage you to review before signing up or making a purchase.
No Professional Advice
Content on this Site is provided for general informational purposes only and does not constitute professional, educational, financial, or career advice. Decisions about which course or platform to use for your specific educational or career goals should take into account your individual circumstances, and you should conduct your own research before committing to any paid program.

We do not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components.
Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Ed Tech Ranking Media shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages — including lost profits, lost data, or costs of substitute services — arising out of or related to your use of the Site, reliance on its content, or any transaction with a third-party platform linked from the Site, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. Our total liability for any claim arising from your use of the Site is limited to the amount, if any, you paid to us directly for access to the Site (which, for most visitors, is zero).
Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Ed Tech Ranking Media, its team members, and affiliates from any claims, damages, losses, or expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your violation of these Terms or your misuse of the Site.
