Pricing
As an Instructor, You will be responsible for determining the Base Price You charge Students for Your Course(s) from the Price Tier Matrix. You may select any increment as defined in the Price Tier Matrix by going to the Price Edit screen in your Instructor Account. You agree to charge only for Your own Submitted Content. You may not charge separately for any course add-ons such as downloadable PDFs or other content and services (such as providing a link to a third party service to sell downloadable PDFs). The Company will handle billing and other fee interaction with Students. When the Sale Currency is different than the Base Currency, OMNEAN will determine the Sale Price using the most recently published Price Tier Matrix. The Company reserves the right to make changes to the Price Tier Matrix at any time.
As part of Your participation on OMNEAN, You give Us permission to share Your Course, and information about You and the Course with OMNEAN employees and selected partners, for which You will not receive compensation.
You acknowledge that the amounts paid by Students for Courses sold through Marketing Programs are not fixed, and OMNEAN has the sole discretion to determine those amounts and which Courses to offer as part of such Marketing Programs. Further, OMNEAN does not guarantee any minimum level of success in connection with the Marketing Programs, and its selection of Courses to include is not an endorsement of those Courses, or of You. If You do not wish to participate in certain Marketing Programs, log into Your Account and opt out of them.
Payments
If You do not opt into any of OMNEAN’s optional Marketing Programs, We will pay You fifty percent (50%) of the Net Amount received for Your Course less any applicable deductions such as Student refunds (“Standard Revenue Share”). If OMNEAN changes the Standard Revenue Share, we will provide you thirty (30) days notice via email or prominent notice on the Services.
So that Company can pay you in a timely manner, you must have a PayPal account or a Payoneer account in good standing and keep OMNEAN apprised as to the correct email address associated with your PayPal or Payoneer account. Payment will be made within forty-five (45) days of the end of the month in which the fee for a Course was received. You are responsible for providing Company with all identifying and tax information necessary for the payment of amounts due.
As an Instructor, you are responsible for determining whether you are eligible to be paid by a US company.
Refunds
As an Instructor, you acknowledge and agree that Students have the right to receive a refund, as set forth in section 10 of OMNEAN’s Terms of Use. Neither Instructors nor OMNEAN shall receive any payments, fees or commissions for any transactions for which a refund has been granted pursuant to section 10 thereof. In the event that a Student requests a refund for a Course after OMNEAN has sent an Instructor payment for that Course, OMNEAN reserves the right to either (1) deduct the amount of such refund from the next payment to be sent to that Instructor, or (2) require that Instructor to refund any amounts refunded to Students for Instructor's Course to the extent no additional payments are due from OMNEAN to Instructor or such payments due to the Instructor are insufficient to cover the amounts refunded to Students.
Taxes

1. European Union
In the event that the sale or delivery of a Course or any Submitted Content to any Student in the European Union is subject to any value added tax ("VAT"), under applicable law, OMNEAN will collect and remit the VAT to the competent tax authorities for sales of such Courses or Submitted Content to Students in the European Union. OMNEAN may at its Own discretion increase the Sale Price where OMNEAN is of the view that VAT may be due and OMNEAN will have a liability to account for such. You will indemnify and hold OMNEAN harmless against any and all claims by any tax authority for any underpayment of VAT, and any penalties and/or interest thereon on Your Instructor Revenue or otherwise.
