This Comprehensive Tutor Agreement and Statements of Understanding ("Agreement") is between New To Education, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company registered in Lawrenceville, Georgia ("New To Education," "NTE," "Company," "we," "our," or "us"), and the individual accepting it ("Tutor," "Contractor," "Provider," or "you").
This Agreement governs your participation through NewToEducation.com, Newtoed.com, future NTE websites, the NTE mobile application, Community Social Page, community service pages, directories, booking and messaging systems, webinars, live and recorded courses, ebooks, blogs, educational content, digital products, AI-powered features, face-to-face services, marketplaces, and related offerings (collectively, the "Platform").
By accepting this Agreement, submitting an application, completing onboarding, creating a tutor profile, accepting a booking, providing a service, communicating with a User, publishing or selling content, or otherwise participating as a Tutor, you agree to this Agreement, the Privacy Policy, Community Guidelines, and applicable service or seller policies. If you do not agree, do not participate as a Tutor.
You provide approved services as an independent contractor and not as an NTE employee, agent, partner, joint venturer, franchisee, or legal representative. Nothing guarantees continued engagement or creates an employment relationship.
Subject to accepted bookings, student-safety rules, quality standards, and law, you control your availability, whether to accept offered work, preparation, instructional approach, and manner and means of performing services. You may provide services elsewhere and are not required to work exclusively for NTE. You generally supply your own equipment, internet, workspace, materials, licenses, insurance, and expenses unless a written service term states otherwise.
You are not eligible for employee wages, overtime, paid leave, benefits, workers' compensation, unemployment benefits, retirement, healthcare, or guaranteed hours through NTE. You are responsible for taxes, filings, permits, licenses, insurance, business expenses, and obligations arising from independent activity. Nothing in this Agreement waives rights that cannot legally be waived or overrides a classification required by law.
Participation is voluntary and has no guaranteed fixed term. You may stop offering services and request account closure at any time, subject to completing or properly canceling accepted obligations, protecting student information, and resolving balances or disputes.
NTE does not guarantee bookings, students, clients, sales, leads, visibility, referrals, webinar attendance, revenue, or minimum compensation. You assume the ordinary business risk of independent participation.
If you leave or your Tutor account is closed, returning is not automatic. You must submit a new application and complete all then-current hiring, screening, verification, onboarding, and approval stages. NTE may approve or decline the new application.
Approved offerings may include tutoring, educational consulting, coaching, mentoring, language instruction, homeschool support, exam preparation, webinars, live or recorded courses, curriculum development, ebooks, educational materials, digital products, resume and career services, workshops, group instruction, online services, and authorized face-to-face services.
You may offer only services within your competence and approved profile scope. NTE may prospectively approve, limit, reclassify, pause, or discontinue categories or listings for safety, quality, legal, technical, or business reasons.
You agree to:
Provide services professionally, competently, ethically, punctually, and lawfully;
Prepare appropriately and deliver the service accurately described;
Maintain truthful credentials, qualifications, rates, availability, and listings;
Communicate respectfully and through approved channels;
Keep reasonable records of bookings, attendance, completion, and material incidents;
Protect student and client privacy and maintain appropriate boundaries;
Use age-appropriate, accurate, inclusive, and lawful materials;
Follow accepted booking terms, cancellation rules, safety requirements, and Platform policies;
Promptly disclose a conflict, inability to perform, material complaint, safety issue, or legal restriction; and
Cooperate reasonably with support, payment, safety, and complaint investigations.
You remain responsible for instructional choices, preparation, scheduling commitments, content, representations, and service delivery.
All application, identity, education, certification, work-history, reference, language, experience, and professional information must be complete and accurate. You may not claim a degree, license, certification, affiliation, title, or expertise you do not possess.
You are responsible for determining and maintaining any license, registration, permit, insurance, safeguarding training, or professional authorization required where you and the student are located. Platform approval is not a government license or professional certification.
Notify NTE promptly if a credential expires, is suspended or revoked, or if another event materially affects your eligibility, safety, or ability to provide services.
NTE may conduct or request identity verification, credential and education verification, reference checks, sanctions screening, professional-disciplinary checks, lawful public-record review, social-media review, or background checks where permitted. Any consumer report subject to the Fair Credit Reporting Act or similar law will be obtained and used with required disclosures, authorization, and procedures.
Screening does not guarantee future conduct, safety, competence, or suitability. NTE may require renewed screening or documentation. Providing false, altered, incomplete, or misleading information may result in rejection or termination.
To the extent permitted by law, promptly disclose a criminal charge or conviction, protective order, substantiated abuse finding, professional discipline, license restriction, credential revocation, government investigation, sanctions designation, or other event reasonably related to student safety, trust, legality, or your services.
NTE will assess relevant information individually and in accordance with applicable law. An arrest alone will not automatically be treated as proof of misconduct where law requires individualized consideration.
You represent that you are not acting for a sanctioned person or unlawful organization and will not use the Platform for trafficking, exploitation, terrorism, organized crime, money laundering, fraud, or other illegal activity.
Unless a separate written agreement or clearly displayed program term states otherwise, you receive 60% of the applicable completed sale amount and NTE retains 40% for tutoring bookings, consultations, live instruction, webinars, courses, ebooks, educational materials, digital products, and other approved offerings sold through the Platform.
The "applicable completed sale amount" is the amount eligible for allocation after a transaction is successfully paid and completed, subject to disclosed adjustments. Refunds, reversals, chargebacks, fraudulent transactions, taxes collected for remittance, payment-processing charges, app-store commissions, currency-conversion costs, legally required withholding, Tutor-funded discounts, and other disclosed transaction costs may be deducted or allocated as stated at listing, checkout, or payout.
NTE's 40% portion compensates NTE for Platform access and operation, hosting, payment and booking administration, customer support, technology, moderation, marketing opportunities, and related services. The split does not create employment, agency, partnership, or joint ownership.
Rates shown to customers must be accurate. You may set rates only within available Platform functionality and applicable rules. NTE may offer promotions; the applicable listing or program terms will state whether NTE or the Tutor funds a discount.
Subject to verification and adjustment, NTE generally processes eligible payouts monthly on or around the twenty-seventh (27th) day. This is a processing target, not a guarantee that funds will reach every bank or payment account that day. Weekends, holidays, provider delays, compliance reviews, incomplete information, and events beyond reasonable control may affect timing.
You must provide accurate payment, identity, residency, and tax information, including a Form W-9, Form W-8, or equivalent documentation when requested. You are responsible for reporting income and paying taxes, fees, licenses, insurance, and expenses in your jurisdiction.
NTE may delay, offset, reserve, or withhold amounts reasonably necessary for refunds, chargebacks, disputes, suspected fraud, negative balances, policy violations, legal process, sanctions, tax withholding, incomplete verification, or payment-provider restrictions. NTE will release undisputed eligible amounts when the issue is resolved, subject to law.
You must follow the cancellation and refund policy displayed for each offering. Compensation may be reduced or reversed when a refund, reversal, or chargeback results from failure to perform, material lateness, inaccurate descriptions, misconduct, policy violations, defective content, unauthorized charges, or another substantiated service issue attributable to you.
NTE will evaluate available records, communications, delivery, applicable policies, and law. You may provide relevant information during an investigation. NTE may allocate losses reasonably between the parties based on responsibility and applicable terms.
You may not encourage false disputes or process payments outside approved methods to avoid refunds, records, fees, or safeguards.
During participation and for twelve (12) months after the last Platform-facilitated interaction with a student, parent, client, business, or organization introduced to you through NTE, you may not knowingly move that relationship off Platform for the purpose of avoiding disclosed NTE fees, commissions, payment systems, or safeguards.
This provision does not prohibit preexisting relationships you can document, general advertising not directed at NTE Users, lawful professional activity, or contact required by law. It is intended to protect relationships and Platform investment, not to prevent you from working generally in your profession.
NTE may recover demonstrable unpaid fees and pursue lawful remedies for intentional circumvention. Earned compensation unrelated to the violation will not be automatically forfeited.
While actively participating and for six (6) months afterward, you may not knowingly target NTE personnel or active Providers for the primary purpose of inducing them to terminate their NTE relationship and join a competing operation. This does not prohibit general job advertisements, unsolicited applications, preexisting relationships, or conduct protected by law.
You must maintain professional boundaries and prioritize student welfare. You may not engage in grooming, sexual or romantic conduct, exploitation, favoritism tied to personal relationships, harassment, threats, corporal punishment, discriminatory abuse, retaliation, or conduct that creates an unreasonable safety risk.
Do not request unnecessary personal information, gifts, money outside authorized payments, secrecy from a parent or NTE, private images, home access, or off-Platform contact. Do not transport, supervise, photograph, record, or meet a minor privately unless expressly authorized by a parent or guardian, permitted by NTE policy, lawful, and appropriate to the service.
Communications with minors must remain educational, age-appropriate, and through authorized or parent-approved channels. NTE may review communications as described in the Privacy Policy and applicable law.
You must promptly report suspected abuse, exploitation, threats, boundary violations, serious misconduct, privacy incidents, or immediate safety concerns to NTE. You are independently responsible for mandatory reports to child-protection or law-enforcement authorities when required by the law applicable to you or the student. Reporting to NTE does not replace a legally required external report.
Contact local emergency services when there is imminent danger or a medical emergency. Preserve relevant records and do not retaliate against a good-faith reporter.
Use student, parent, client, and User information only as necessary to provide authorized services. Do not sell, disclose, publish, retain unnecessarily, reuse for unrelated marketing, or transfer information outside approved systems without lawful authority.
Use reasonable safeguards, strong passwords, current software, secure networks, and access controls. Do not download or store sensitive records on shared or unsecured devices. Promptly report suspected loss, unauthorized access, disclosure, security incident, or data breach and cooperate with response efforts.
Where NTE or a school identifies you as a school official or authorized service provider under FERPA, COPPA, or similar law, use covered information only for the authorized educational purpose, remain under required control, and return or delete it when instructed and legally permitted.
Privacy and security duties survive termination for as long as protected information is retained.
Confidential Information includes nonpublic NTE business plans, financial information, software and security information, pricing strategy, internal procedures, analytics, customer and Provider data, unreleased features, contractual terms designated confidential, and other information reasonably understood as confidential.
You may use Confidential Information only to perform approved services and may disclose it only to authorized persons who need it and are bound by appropriate duties. Confidential Information excludes information lawfully public without your breach, already lawfully known, independently developed, or rightfully received without restriction.
Legally compelled disclosure is permitted if you give advance notice where lawful and disclose only what is required. Nothing prohibits good-faith reports to regulators, law enforcement, an attorney, or government agencies, or legally protected whistleblowing. Trade-secret confidentiality survives while information remains a trade secret; other confidentiality duties survive for three years after termination unless law or a separate written agreement requires longer.
NTE owns its trademarks, logos, branding, software, databases, designs, Platform functionality, internal documentation, and original Company materials. No ownership transfers to you. You receive a limited, revocable, nonexclusive right to use authorized NTE materials only while performing approved services.
You may not copy, sell, sublicense, reverse engineer, scrape, modify, distribute, or exploit NTE intellectual property except as expressly authorized or permitted by law.
You retain ownership of content independently created by you unless a separate written work-for-hire, commissioned-content, or assignment agreement states otherwise.
By uploading, publishing, displaying, or selling content through the Platform, you grant NTE a worldwide, nonexclusive, royalty-free, transferable, and sublicensable license to host, store, reproduce, technically or accessibly format, display, distribute, deliver, market, promote, and use the content as reasonably necessary to operate the Platform and fulfill purchases.
The license continues while the content is offered and afterward as reasonably necessary to serve prior purchasers, maintain backups and legal records, complete authorized promotions, and operate technical systems. Removing content does not revoke licenses already granted to purchasers or require recall of lawfully sold copies.
You represent that you own or have all permissions required for the content and that it is accurate, lawful, age-appropriate, nondefamatory, and does not violate privacy, publicity, confidentiality, contract, trademark, copyright, or other rights.
Content specifically commissioned and paid for by NTE may be treated as work made for hire where legally permitted. To the extent it is not work made for hire, you assign to NTE the rights expressly identified in the written project terms upon full payment. General materials, methods, templates, and intellectual property you developed independently before the project remain yours, subject to any license necessary for NTE to use the commissioned deliverable.
You remain responsible for all AI-assisted content, communications, recommendations, grading, feedback, and materials. You must verify accuracy, originality, citations, bias, age appropriateness, and legal compliance.
Do not enter confidential NTE information, personally identifiable student information, protected education records, health information, assessment answers, or client materials into an external AI system unless NTE and the affected party have authorized it and applicable privacy requirements are satisfied.
You may not use AI to impersonate a human, fabricate credentials or sources, plagiarize, enable cheating, make unlawful high-impact decisions, or provide unqualified professional advice. Disclose material AI involvement when required by NTE policy, law, or reasonable client expectations.
Tutor articles, profiles, comments, community posts, service listings, and other public content must be accurate, professional, lawful, and consistent with Platform rules. You are responsible for distinguishing allegations, charges, filings, rulings, dismissals, and proven findings and must not present disputed allegations as established facts.
Educational-law, health, financial, employment, or other professional content must include appropriate informational disclaimers and must not falsely create a professional-client relationship. NTE may edit formatting, request corrections, add editorial notices, limit distribution, or remove content for accuracy, safety, legal, quality, or policy reasons.
You may explain concepts, provide feedback, demonstrate examples, and offer legitimate learning support. You may not impersonate a student, complete a prohibited examination or graded assignment for a student, facilitate plagiarism, provide stolen answers, falsify attendance or progress, or knowingly assist academic misconduct.
Do not record lessons, meetings, webinars, communications, screens, or students without all required notice and consent. Additional consent is required for recording minors where applicable.
NTE may record onboarding, training, support, quality reviews, or events only after appropriate notice or consent where required. Marketing use of your name, likeness, voice, biography, or recorded performance requires the authorization provided in a separate release, event notice, content license, or clearly disclosed feature; accepting this Agreement alone is not unlimited publicity consent.
In-person participation is voluntary and may involve travel, illness, injury, harassment, theft, property damage, weather, and emergencies. You are responsible for lawful, professional, and safe performance; transportation; required insurance; venue rules; and approved-location requirements.
Initial meetings should occur in appropriate public or professional locations, not private residences, hotel rooms, secluded places, or locations deemed unsafe. Minors must be supervised as required by the parent, NTE, venue, and law. Unless expressly agreed, NTE does not provide transportation, security, medical supervision, childcare, guardianship, or continuous monitoring.
You must stop or decline an unsafe or unlawful session and promptly report serious incidents. Nothing requires you to perform where conditions create a reasonable safety concern.
Offer these services only within your qualifications and legal scope. Do not diagnose, treat, prescribe, provide therapy, or present general wellness instruction as licensed healthcare unless properly licensed and expressly approved.
Explain material risks, follow appropriate safety practices, require protective equipment where applicable, adapt instruction reasonably, and direct participants to qualified medical professionals when appropriate. Immediately address and report serious injury or emergency. You are responsible for maintaining any legally required liability or professional insurance.
Maintain truthful qualifications, availability, rates, services, experience, licenses, and media. Do not guarantee outcomes, manipulate ratings, buy reviews, use deceptive testimonials, or make unsupported comparative claims.
You may identify yourself accurately as an independent Tutor using NTE, but may not claim to own NTE, speak officially for NTE, bind NTE, or be an NTE employee unless authorized in writing. Follow trademark and brand instructions and promptly correct misleading representations.
You may make truthful statements, provide honest reviews, discuss working conditions, exercise legal rights, and report concerns in good faith. You may not knowingly make false statements of fact, defame others, disclose protected information, or falsely imply official authority.
Use approved systems for bookings, payments, records, and minor communications. Do not use student contact information for unrelated solicitation or add Users to marketing lists without valid consent.
Off-Platform conduct may affect eligibility only when it reasonably relates to student safety, fraud, professional fitness, legal compliance, harassment, confidentiality, or material risk to NTE or Users.
NTE may review profiles, completion records, response times, ratings, complaints, content, support contacts, bookings, and authorized communications for quality, safety, fraud prevention, compliance, dispute resolution, and improvement. Monitoring will follow the Privacy Policy and applicable law.
NTE may establish reasonable, prospectively communicated quality, profile, response, content, and safety standards. No metric by itself guarantees bookings or continued participation.
NTE may add, test, modify, pause, or discontinue features for legal, safety, security, technical, operational, or business reasons. NTE does not guarantee uninterrupted availability, historical functionality, compatibility, visibility, rankings, or particular search placement.
Roadmaps, beta features, and estimated release dates are goals rather than promises unless expressly agreed in writing. You agree to reasonably cooperate with necessary operational and compliance changes.
Payment processors, app stores, conferencing tools, AI providers, hosting, analytics, communications, and other third parties may have separate terms and policies. NTE is not responsible for matters beyond its reasonable control.
Apple, Google, or another marketplace is not responsible for NTE services, support, or warranties. App-store commissions or payment rules may affect eligible transaction amounts as disclosed.
NTE may take proportionate action, including warnings, content or profile removal, booking limits, payout reserves, suspension, or termination, based on failed verification, misconduct, safety concerns, fraud, material complaints, nonperformance, circumvention, infringement, privacy violations, legal requirements, security risks, inactivity, or material breach.
NTE may act immediately when reasonably necessary to protect a person, evidence, funds, systems, or legal compliance. Where appropriate and safe, NTE may provide notice and an opportunity to respond or appeal.
Termination does not eliminate payment for undisputed eligible completed services, subject to refunds, chargebacks, offsets, taxes, and lawful holds. NTE is not liable for speculative future bookings or earnings.
Upon termination or request, stop using NTE systems and return or securely delete NTE Confidential Information, User information, access credentials, and Company materials, except records you must retain by law. Confirm deletion if reasonably requested. These duties do not require deletion of your independently owned content, but Platform access and use of NTE materials must cease.
You are responsible for ordinary expenses and for determining whether professional liability, general liability, cyber, vehicle, health, accident, or other insurance is appropriate or legally required. NTE may require evidence of insurance for specified higher-risk or face-to-face services.
To the extent permitted by law, you will indemnify NTE and its owners, officers, employees, contractors, and affiliates from third-party claims and reasonable costs arising from your unlawful conduct, material breach, negligence or willful misconduct, services, content, privacy or intellectual-property violation, tax obligation, or material misrepresentation.
NTE will provide reasonable notice and allow reasonable participation in the defense. You are not required to indemnify NTE for NTE's own unlawful conduct, gross negligence, or willful misconduct.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE." NTE DISCLAIMS IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT, EXCEPT WHERE THEY CANNOT LEGALLY BE DISCLAIMED.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NTE AND ITS OWNERS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, AFFILIATES, LICENSORS, AND PROVIDERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR LOST PROFITS, OPPORTUNITIES, DATA, OR REPUTATION.
NTE'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT NTE PAID YOU DURING THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM OR (B) US $100. These limits do not apply where prohibited by law, including where applicable liability for fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence, or legally nonwaivable personal injury.
Before filing a formal claim, the parties will attempt good-faith resolution. A written notice must identify the claimant and account, facts, requested relief, and contact information. Send it below with the subject Legal Dispute Notice. Either party may proceed after thirty (30) days if unresolved. This does not prevent urgent injunctive relief, agency reports, legally protected complaints, or eligible small-claims actions.
Except for eligible small claims, urgent injunctive relief, intellectual-property or confidentiality misuse, and nonarbitrable claims, disputes will be resolved by binding individual arbitration under the Federal Arbitration Act, administered by the American Arbitration Association under applicable Commercial Arbitration Rules or another mutually agreed set of rules. Arbitration may occur remotely, by documents, or in a reasonably convenient location.
Claims must be individual, not class, collective, consolidated, mass, private-attorney-general, or representative actions, where permitted. If the waiver is unenforceable for a claim, that claim proceeds in court rather than class arbitration.
You may opt out of arbitration by sending your name, account email, and clear opt-out request within thirty (30) days after first accepting this Agreement.
Georgia law and applicable federal law govern this Agreement without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Nonarbitrated disputes may be brought in courts with jurisdiction over Lawrenceville, Georgia, except where mandatory law requires another forum. Nothing deprives either party of nonwaivable legal protections.
Neither party is liable for delay or failure caused by events beyond reasonable control, including disaster, war, terrorism, unrest, public-health emergencies, government action, sanctions, utility or internet failures, cyberattack, transportation disruption, labor disputes, supplier failure, or widespread outages. The affected party must make reasonable efforts to reduce the impact and promptly communicate material service disruption.
You consent to electronic agreements, disclosures, payout statements, tax notices, booking information, security alerts, policy updates, and legal notices. Keep contact information current. Electronic acceptance and signatures have the same effect as handwritten signatures to the extent permitted by law.
NTE may revise this Agreement prospectively. The updated date will be posted, and reasonable advance notice will be provided for material changes affecting compensation, dispute procedures, or substantive duties, except changes required sooner for law, safety, or security.
Changes do not retroactively reduce earned compensation or alter completed transactions. Continued participation after the effective date constitutes acceptance where permitted. If you do not agree, stop accepting new work and close your Tutor account after properly completing or canceling existing obligations.
You may not transfer this Agreement or your account without NTE's written consent. NTE may assign it in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, financing, asset sale, or Platform transfer, subject to law.
If a provision is unenforceable, it will be limited or severed to the minimum necessary, and the remainder continues. Failure to enforce is not a waiver. Payment, taxes, privacy, confidentiality, intellectual property, content licenses, dispute, liability, indemnity, and logically surviving duties remain effective after termination.
This Agreement, the Privacy Policy, Community Guidelines, and applicable listing, booking, seller, payout, or project terms constitute the agreement concerning Tutor participation. A signed project-specific agreement controls that project, followed by transaction-specific terms, this Agreement, and Community Guidelines; the Privacy Policy controls descriptions of personal-information practices.
This Agreement supersedes prior general Tutor terms on the same subject. Any individual amendment or waiver must be in an authorized writing.
Questions, account-closure requests, privacy or safety reports, copyright notices, arbitration opt-outs, and dispute notices may be directed to:

Effective Date: September 12, 2026
Last Updated: September 12, 2026
New To Education, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company registered in Lawrenceville, Georgia ("New To Education," "NTE," "Company," "we," "our," or "us"), respects the privacy of tutors, educators, instructors, consultants, coaches, mentors, content creators, webinar presenters, affiliates, applicants, contractors, sellers, and other service providers who use our Platform (collectively, "Tutors" or "you").
This Tutor Privacy Policy explains how NTE collects, uses, stores, processes, transfers, shares, protects, and manages information relating to Tutors through NewToEducation.com, Newtoed.com, future websites, the NTE mobile application, application and hiring features, Community Social Page, community service pages, booking and messaging systems, directories, webinars, live and recorded courses, ebooks, blogs, digital products, educational marketplaces, AI-powered services, face-to-face services, and all related offerings (collectively, the "Platform").
By applying to become a Tutor, creating a profile, participating in onboarding, providing services, publishing or selling content, receiving payments, communicating through Platform systems, or otherwise using the Platform as a contractor, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy. This notice describes information practices and does not replace the Comprehensive Tutor Agreement, Community Guidelines, seller terms, or transaction-specific policies.
This Privacy Policy applies to information collected from tutors, educators, consultants, contractors, affiliates, presenters, creators, coaches, mentors, and other independent service providers who interact with the Platform.
This Privacy Policy applies to information collected through app-based and website applications, registrations, hiring and onboarding processes, profile creation, service delivery, Community activity, messaging, content submissions, blogs, webinars, bookings, marketplace sales, payment and payout activity, support requests, verification procedures, safety reports, and other Platform-related activities.
This Privacy Policy does not apply to third-party websites, social media platforms, payment processors, video conferencing providers, cloud providers, independent businesses, educational institutions, government agencies, or other third parties that maintain separate privacy practices.
The Company may collect personal information, professional information, educational information, financial information, verification information, communications information, technical information, platform activity information, content information, and other information reasonably necessary to operate the Platform and provide services.
Information may be collected directly from tutors, automatically through technology systems, from third-party providers, from publicly available sources, from educational institutions, from references, or from other lawful sources.
The Company may collect personal identification information including names, usernames, profile photographs, dates of birth where required, nationality information where required by law, residency information, government-issued identification documents, verification documents, passport information where necessary, tax identification information, and other information required to verify identity and administer Platform services.
The Company reserves the right to request updated identification documents at any time.
The Company may collect information regarding educational background, degrees, certifications, licenses, teaching experience, employment history, professional memberships, subject expertise, language proficiency, resumes, curriculum vitae, portfolios, references, recommendations, professional achievements, and other qualifications provided by tutors.
Such information may be used to evaluate applications, verify qualifications, improve profile visibility, facilitate student matching, support business operations, and maintain Platform quality standards.
The Company may collect and display profile information including biographies, introductions, teaching philosophies, areas of expertise, availability information, pricing information, social media links, website links, uploaded media, promotional content, profile photographs, videos, and other information voluntarily submitted by tutors.
Certain profile information may be visible to students, parents, businesses, organizations, affiliates, search engines, and members of the public.
Tutors are responsible for ensuring that publicly displayed information is accurate and appropriate.
The Company may collect information necessary to verify identity, eligibility, qualifications, residency, professional credentials, educational credentials, tax status, payment eligibility, and compliance with Company policies.
Verification information may include copies of identification documents, educational credentials, professional certifications, proof of residency, business registration information, references, and other supporting documentation.
The Company reserves the right to deny, suspend, restrict, or terminate Platform participation where requested verification information is not provided.
Where permitted by law, the Company may collect, receive, review, or verify information relating to criminal history disclosures, sanctions screening, reference checks, educational verification, employment verification, licensing verification, professional disciplinary actions, publicly available records, and related information.
Background screening activities may be conducted directly by the Company or through authorized third-party providers.
Where a third-party consumer reporting agency provides a background report subject to the Fair Credit Reporting Act or similar law, NTE will provide required disclosures, obtain authorization, and follow applicable pre-adverse-action and adverse-action procedures. Screening information will be considered in accordance with applicable law and relevant Platform-safety requirements.
The Company may retain records relating to screening activities where necessary for legal compliance, security, safety, dispute resolution, audit, and legitimate operational purposes.
The Company may collect payment-related information necessary to process compensation, administer payouts, comply with tax obligations, prevent fraud, verify payment eligibility, and support financial operations.
Such information may include bank account information, payment processor account information, tax identification numbers, withholding information, residency information, billing information, payout preferences, transaction histories, invoice information, and related financial records.
The Company generally relies upon third-party payment processors to process payments. While the Company may receive transaction-related information, the Company does not intentionally store complete payment card information, banking passwords, or other sensitive authentication credentials unless necessary for legitimate operational purposes.
Payment processors maintain their own privacy policies and security practices, and tutors are encouraged to review such policies.
Unless a separate written agreement or clearly displayed program term states otherwise, an eligible Tutor or Seller receives 60% of the applicable completed sale amount and NTE retains 40% for approved tutoring bookings, consultations, live instruction, webinars, courses, ebooks, educational materials, digital products, and other offerings sold through the Platform.
To administer this allocation, we may process gross transaction amounts, discounts, NTE and Tutor allocations, refunds, reversals, chargebacks, fraudulent transactions, taxes, payment-processing charges, app-store commissions, currency-conversion costs, legally required withholding, payout holds, negative balances, and related accounting records. The Comprehensive Tutor Agreement and applicable transaction terms govern how amounts are calculated and paid; this section explains the related data processing.
We may share necessary payout and transaction information with payment processors, app stores, banks, accounting and tax providers, fraud-prevention vendors, regulators, and other authorized service providers.
The Company may collect information necessary to comply with applicable tax laws, withholding obligations, reporting requirements, anti-money laundering regulations, sanctions compliance requirements, financial auditing requirements, and related legal obligations.
Such information may include tax forms, residency documentation, taxpayer identification numbers, withholding certifications, business registration documents, and other information required by law.
The Company reserves the right to retain tax-related information for periods required by applicable law.
The Company may collect information regarding a tutor's activities on the Platform.
This information may include profile updates, login activity, lesson activity, scheduling information, booking history, attendance records, student interactions, cancellation history, response times, support requests, webinar participation, content uploads, profile completion status, ratings, reviews, performance metrics, and other operational information.
Platform activity information may be used for quality assurance, fraud prevention, security monitoring, customer support, performance evaluation, operational management, dispute resolution, business improvement, and compliance purposes.
The Company may collect, analyze, review, and maintain information relating to tutor performance and service quality.
Such information may include student feedback, reviews, ratings, complaints, lesson completion records, attendance records, communication records, response times, customer satisfaction information, platform engagement metrics, and operational performance data.
This information may be used to improve service quality, facilitate student matching, maintain Platform standards, investigate complaints, support business decisions, and improve user experiences.
The Company may collect information contained within emails, messages, chats, support requests, forum discussions, webinar communications, customer support interactions, surveys, feedback submissions, comments, and other communications exchanged through Platform systems.
Communications may be reviewed, stored, analyzed, monitored, archived, or processed for customer support, quality assurance, security, training, dispute resolution, compliance, operational management, fraud prevention, and service improvement purposes.
Private messages should not be treated as absolutely confidential. Authorized personnel and service providers may access or review messages when reasonably necessary to deliver the feature, investigate a report, protect a minor or another User, prevent fraud or abuse, enforce Platform rules, or comply with law.
When Tutors create posts, comments, profiles, listings, reactions, follows, messages, reviews, reports, or other Community content, NTE may process the content and associated engagement, audience, moderation, complaint, appeal, and enforcement information.
Information designated as public may be visible to students, parents, clients, businesses, search engines, and the general public and may be copied, indexed, archived, shared, or redistributed beyond NTE's control. Deleting a post or account may not remove copies previously shared, cached, quoted, or lawfully retained.
NTE may use human review and automated tools to detect spam, scams, harassment, exploitation, unsafe services, prohibited content, intellectual-property violations, or other rule violations.
Applications may be submitted and processed through the NTE mobile application or website. We may collect application answers, resumes, credentials, work eligibility information, introduction videos or links, interview information, assessment results, references, onboarding completion, decisions, and communications about the application.
NTE may use this information to evaluate eligibility, arrange interviews, verify qualifications, prevent duplicate or fraudulent applications, make onboarding decisions, and maintain required records. Leaving or deleting an active Tutor account does not guarantee future approval. A returning applicant may be required to reapply and complete all then-current screening and onboarding stages.
The Company may collect information relating to webinars, courses, ebooks, digital products, educational materials, presentations, videos, audio recordings, lesson materials, downloadable resources, blog submissions, and other content uploaded by tutors.
Such information may be used to facilitate service delivery, marketplace operations, quality assurance, promotional activities, educational initiatives, content moderation, security monitoring, and operational management.
The Company reserves the right to archive, review, analyze, or retain uploaded content in accordance with Platform policies and applicable law.
When a Tutor authors, submits, edits, comments on, or is identified with a blog, article, newsletter, or editorial contribution, NTE may process drafts, author details, revision history, source and citation information, fact-checking records, editorial communications, correction requests, publication status, readership, engagement, and related payment or promotional information.
Because articles may discuss litigation, allegations, employment disputes, public records, or developing events, NTE may retain relevant editorial and legal-review records to support accuracy, corrections, dispute resolution, and defense of legal claims.
The Platform may utilize artificial intelligence technologies, virtual assistants, automated moderation systems, recommendation engines, content analysis tools, fraud-prevention systems, machine-learning technologies, and other automated services.
Information submitted through AI-powered services may be processed to deliver requested features, support customer service, evaluate outputs, improve Platform functionality, identify technical issues, maintain security, moderate content, and develop future services. AI inputs and outputs may be transmitted to authorized model or infrastructure providers when necessary to deliver a feature.
Tutors should not submit protected student records, confidential client or NTE information, health information, financial credentials, government identifiers, or content they lack authority to disclose. NTE will not use a child's personal information to train a general-purpose AI model unless lawfully authorized and appropriate notice and consent have been provided.
The Company may use anonymized, aggregated, or operationally necessary information to improve Platform technologies and services, subject to applicable law.
The Company may automatically collect technical information when tutors access the Platform.
Such information may include IP addresses, browser types, browser versions, device identifiers, operating systems, application usage information, language settings, geographic region information, login history, access timestamps, referral information, and other technical data necessary for Platform operation.
Technical information may be utilized for security, analytics, troubleshooting, fraud prevention, system administration, performance monitoring, and service improvement purposes.
The NTE application may collect application version, device and advertising identifiers, notification tokens, crash and diagnostic data, installation information, and feature interactions. Features may request access to a camera, microphone, photographs or media, files, notifications, calendar, contacts, or approximate or precise location. Permission will be requested through the device or application where required and may be changed in device settings.
NTE does not continuously collect precise location unless a feature requires it and permission has been granted. We do not access contacts merely because the application is installed. Disabling a permission may prevent the related feature from working.
With permission, NTE may send push notifications about applications, interviews, onboarding, bookings, messages, payouts, Community activity, saved or followed content, security, Platform updates, and promotions. Notification preferences may be managed through device or application settings.
The Company may use tutor information for a variety of legitimate business, operational, educational, legal, compliance, security, and administrative purposes.
Such purposes may include:
Processing tutor applications
Verifying identity and qualifications
Facilitating bookings
Matching tutors with students
Processing compensation
Managing profiles
Providing customer support
Operating educational services
Maintaining security
Detecting fraud
Monitoring compliance
Improving Platform functionality
Conducting analytics
Managing affiliate programs
Supporting webinars and courses
Maintaining records
Responding to legal requests
Enforcing Platform policies
Developing new services
Communicating with tutors
Information may also be used to improve educational outcomes, enhance user experiences, increase Platform efficiency, and support future business initiatives.
Where applicable law requires a legal basis, NTE may process Tutor information because it is necessary to evaluate an application, enter into or perform the Tutor Agreement, provide requested Platform services, comply with legal obligations, protect vital interests, pursue legitimate interests not overridden by the Tutor's rights, establish or defend legal claims, or act with consent. Where consent is the basis, it may be withdrawn without affecting earlier lawful processing.
The Company may use tutor information to promote Platform services, highlight tutor profiles, showcase educational content, advertise webinars, market courses, feature success stories, announce new services, and support other promotional activities.
Public profile and listing information may be used to promote the Tutor's availability and offerings as part of ordinary Platform operation. Material use of a Tutor's name, likeness, voice, testimonial, or recorded performance in a separate advertising campaign will be based on a feature disclosure, event notice, content license, or other appropriate authorization.
Tutors may manage available promotional preferences and unsubscribe from marketing communications. NTE does not guarantee profile visibility, placement, referrals, bookings, or promotional results.
Operational, transactional, security-related, legal, and account-related communications may continue regardless of marketing preferences.
Information may be aggregated, anonymized, pseudonymized, analyzed, or otherwise processed for research, analytics, educational studies, market analysis, service improvement, business planning, operational management, innovation initiatives, and future Platform development.
Where possible, information used for research or analytics purposes may be de-identified to reduce the likelihood of identifying individual tutors.
NTE does not sell personal information in exchange for direct monetary compensation. Some advertising or analytics disclosures may be treated as a "sale," "sharing," or targeted advertising under certain privacy laws. Where required, NTE will provide an opt-out method and process supported browser-based preference signals such as Global Privacy Control. NTE may not respond to other "Do Not Track" signals where no uniform legal or technical standard applies.
In order to facilitate educational services and bookings, certain tutor information may be shared with students, parents, guardians, clients, businesses, organizations, and other authorized users of the Platform.
Information shared may include profile photographs, biographies, qualifications, certifications, subject expertise, availability information, pricing information, teaching experience, language proficiency, reviews, ratings, content offerings, webinar information, and other profile information voluntarily submitted by tutors.
The Company may also share scheduling information, booking confirmations, lesson details, attendance information, and communications necessary to facilitate services.
Tutors acknowledge that information designated as public profile information may be viewable by Platform users, search engines, and the general public.
The Platform may facilitate relationships between tutors, businesses, educational institutions, nonprofit organizations, government entities, corporate clients, and other organizations.
Where necessary to facilitate approved services, opportunities, partnerships, workshops, webinars, projects, contracts, or educational activities, the Company may share relevant tutor information with authorized organizations.
Information shared may include qualifications, experience, certifications, service offerings, availability information, content portfolios, and other information necessary to evaluate participation opportunities.
Where tutors participate in affiliate programs, referral programs, ambassador programs, promotional activities, or similar initiatives, the Company may share limited information necessary to administer such programs.
Information may include referral activity, commission information, promotional performance metrics, and related operational data.
The Company may engage third-party providers to assist with Platform operations.
These providers may include:
Payment processors
Cloud hosting providers
Customer support providers
Email service providers
Marketing platforms
Analytics providers
Security providers
Video conferencing providers
Learning management systems
Artificial intelligence providers
Scheduling platforms
Communication providers
Business management systems
Accounting providers
Legal and compliance providers
Such providers may receive access to information only to the extent reasonably necessary to perform services on behalf of the Company.
The Company may require service providers to maintain appropriate confidentiality, privacy, and security protections.
Tutors may voluntarily link social media accounts, websites, portfolios, professional profiles, and other publicly accessible resources to their Platform profiles.
Information made publicly available by tutors may be accessible through search engines, directory listings, profile pages, marketing materials, promotional campaigns, newsletters, social media channels, and other public-facing services.
The Company is not responsible for information voluntarily published by tutors in public areas of the Platform.
The Company may disclose tutor information where reasonably necessary to comply with applicable laws, regulations, court orders, subpoenas, government requests, law enforcement requests, legal proceedings, regulatory investigations, tax obligations, sanctions requirements, anti-money laundering requirements, or other legal obligations.
The Company may also disclose information to protect the safety, rights, property, security, reputation, legal interests, or operational interests of the Company, Platform users, service providers, business partners, or the public.
Tutor information may be transferred, disclosed, assigned, or otherwise included as part of a merger, acquisition, investment transaction, restructuring, reorganization, financing arrangement, sale of assets, ownership transfer, bankruptcy proceeding, or similar business transaction involving the Company.
Tutors acknowledge that such transfers may occur as part of ordinary business operations.
New To Education serves tutors located in multiple countries and jurisdictions.
As a result, tutor information may be transferred, stored, processed, accessed, maintained, or backed up in countries other than the tutor's country of residence.
These countries may have privacy protections that differ from those applicable in a tutor's home jurisdiction.
Where required, NTE will rely on an approved transfer mechanism or other lawful safeguard for international transfers. Information may be transferred where reasonably necessary to provide services, perform contracts, maintain security, support operations, or comply with law.
Tutor information may be stored within cloud environments, databases, servers, backup systems, archives, disaster recovery systems, software platforms, and technology infrastructure operated by the Company or authorized service providers.
Storage locations may change over time as business operations evolve.
The Company reserves the right to migrate, duplicate, archive, relocate, transfer, or back up information as necessary to maintain Platform operations and business continuity.
The Company may retain tutor information for as long as reasonably necessary to:
Provide services
Maintain Platform operations
Process payments
Comply with legal obligations
Resolve disputes
Enforce agreements
Maintain security
Prevent fraud
Conduct audits
Preserve records
Support future business operations
Protect legitimate business interests
Retention periods may vary based upon the nature of the information and applicable legal requirements.
Information may continue to exist within backup systems, archives, historical databases, audit logs, compliance records, disaster recovery systems, legal records, and other storage environments after account closure, inactivity, or deletion requests.
Such information may be retained for operational, legal, compliance, security, fraud prevention, auditing, or business continuity purposes.
The Company implements commercially reasonable administrative, technical, organizational, and physical safeguards designed to protect tutor information from unauthorized access, misuse, disclosure, alteration, loss, destruction, or theft.
Security measures may include:
Encryption technologies
Access controls
Authentication systems
Security monitoring
Audit procedures
Vendor reviews
Security training
Backup procedures
Incident response procedures
While the Company strives to maintain strong security practices, no technology system can guarantee absolute security.
Tutors are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of account credentials, safeguarding devices, maintaining secure internet connections, updating software, monitoring account activity, and taking reasonable precautions to protect information.
Tutors shall immediately notify the Company of suspected unauthorized access, security incidents, privacy concerns, or account compromises.
The Company may maintain confidentiality protections relating to tutor records, communications, payment information, verification materials, business information, operational records, and other sensitive information.
Access to such information may be limited to authorized personnel, contractors, service providers, and business partners who require access for legitimate operational purposes.
The Company reserves the right to implement additional confidentiality safeguards as necessary to protect Platform operations and user information.
Because New To Education facilitates educational services involving minors, tutors acknowledge that certain information relating to interactions with students may be collected, retained, reviewed, monitored, or processed for safety, compliance, quality assurance, legal, educational, and operational purposes.
The Company may review lesson records, communications, attendance records, complaints, reports, session information, and other relevant information where necessary to protect students, investigate concerns, enforce Platform policies, comply with legal obligations, or maintain service quality.
Tutors acknowledge that student safety remains a priority and that the Company may take reasonable actions to investigate safety concerns involving minors.
Depending upon the tutor's jurisdiction, applicable laws may provide certain rights relating to personal information.
Such rights may include:
Access to personal information
Correction of inaccurate information
Deletion of certain information
Restriction of processing
Portability of information
Objection to certain processing activities
Withdrawal of consent where consent applies
Submission of complaints to privacy regulators
The availability of rights may vary based upon applicable law, location, operational requirements, legal obligations, and the nature of the information involved.
The Company reserves the right to verify identity prior to processing requests.
Tutors may request information regarding the categories of information collected, sources of information, purposes of collection, categories of recipients, retention practices, and other information required under applicable privacy laws.
The Company may request additional information necessary to verify identity before responding to requests.
Tutors may request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information maintained by the Company.
The Company reserves the right to review supporting documentation and determine whether requested corrections are appropriate based upon available records, operational requirements, legal obligations, and applicable law.
Tutors may request deletion of personal information under certain circumstances.
The Company may decline deletion requests where information must be retained for legal compliance, tax reporting, payment records, dispute resolution, fraud prevention, security purposes, contractual obligations, business operations, recordkeeping requirements, or other lawful purposes.
Deletion requests may not result in immediate or complete removal of information from backup systems, archives, logs, compliance records, historical records, or legally required records.
Tutors may request account closure or deletion through available Platform functionality or by contacting NTE below. NTE may verify identity before acting. A qualifying request will result in deletion, deidentification, or restriction of personal information, except information lawfully retained for completed sales, purchaser access, taxes, payouts, refunds, chargebacks, fraud prevention, safety, screening documentation, disputes, legal compliance, intellectual-property protection, backups, and enforcement of agreements.
Account closure does not cancel an outstanding booking, resolve a balance or complaint, revoke licenses already granted to purchasers, remove content copied or shared by others, or eliminate lawfully required records. Public profiles may be hidden or deactivated before deletion is fully completed.
A former Tutor seeking to return must submit a new application and complete all current hiring, verification, screening, and onboarding stages. Prior approval does not guarantee reapproval.
Where applicable law provides these rights, a Tutor may use an authorized agent or appeal NTE's decision on a privacy request. NTE may require proof of authorization and identity verification. Appeal instructions will be provided with a decision when required. Tutors may also contact an applicable privacy regulator or state attorney general.
Where processing activities are based upon consent, tutors may withdraw consent at any time by contacting the Company.
Withdrawal of consent shall not affect processing that occurred prior to withdrawal and may affect the availability of certain Platform services or features.
Where applicable, tutors residing in California may possess rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), and other California privacy laws.
Such rights may include rights relating to access, correction, deletion, disclosure of categories of information collected, disclosure of information sharing practices, and limitations regarding certain uses of personal information.
The Company will process qualifying requests in accordance with applicable California law.
The Company shall not unlawfully discriminate against tutors who exercise privacy rights provided by law.
Tutors located within the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, Switzerland, or similar jurisdictions may possess rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), UK GDPR, and related privacy laws.
The Company may rely upon contractual necessity, legitimate interests, legal obligations, consent, fraud prevention interests, security interests, business operations, or other lawful bases when processing tutor information.
Tutors may exercise applicable rights in accordance with governing law.
The Platform may utilize automated systems, machine-learning technologies, recommendation engines, fraud-detection tools, moderation systems, artificial intelligence technologies, analytics systems, ranking systems, and related technologies.
Such systems may assist with:
Tutor profile recommendations
Student matching
Fraud prevention
Security monitoring
Customer support
Quality assurance
Platform analytics
Content moderation
Operational management
Business intelligence
Tutors acknowledge that automated systems may generate recommendations, classifications, rankings, summaries, analyses, or outputs that are not always accurate, complete, or error-free.
Automated tools may assist but do not necessarily make the final decision. Where required by law, NTE will provide notice and applicable rights concerning decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects, which may include human review, correction of inaccurate information, an explanation, or an appeal.
The Company may use automated processing where permitted by law and reasonably necessary for Platform operations. Tutors may report suspected inaccuracies or harmful outcomes through the contact information below.
While the Company implements commercially reasonable safeguards, no security system can guarantee complete protection against cyberattacks, unauthorized access, data breaches, technical failures, malicious actors, or other security incidents.
In the event of a confirmed security incident requiring notification under applicable law, the Company may notify affected tutors through email, Platform notifications, website notices, postal mail, support communications, public notices, or other reasonable methods.
The timing, content, and scope of notifications may be determined based upon applicable legal requirements, law enforcement guidance, security concerns, and operational considerations.
The Company reserves the right to retain, archive, anonymize, suspend, restrict, deactivate, delete, or otherwise manage inactive tutor accounts and associated information in accordance with operational requirements, legal obligations, compliance needs, security considerations, fraud prevention efforts, recordkeeping obligations, and legitimate business interests.
Inactive accounts may be archived, hidden from public view, restricted, or removed from active systems without prior notice.
The Platform may contain links, integrations, references, or connections to third-party websites, applications, social media platforms, payment processors, educational institutions, businesses, organizations, webinar providers, cloud providers, artificial intelligence providers, and other external services.
The Company does not control and is not responsible for the privacy practices, content, policies, security measures, terms, or activities of third parties.
Tutors are encouraged to review the privacy policies of any third-party services they choose to utilize.
The Company may update, amend, revise, supplement, or replace this Tutor Privacy Policy as Platform practices and legal requirements evolve.
Updated versions become effective upon publication unless otherwise stated. Where required by law, NTE will provide additional notice or obtain consent before a material change becomes effective.
Tutors are responsible for periodically reviewing this Privacy Policy to remain informed regarding changes.
Because this is a privacy notice rather than a contract, any consent legally required for a specific new use will be requested separately.
Questions regarding this Privacy Policy, privacy rights requests, correction requests, deletion requests, access requests, complaints, concerns, or other privacy-related matters may be directed to:
