How Intellectual Property Works on GyanVapy Courses™ #
This document explains the intellectual property rights of instructors, students, and the platform. It’s about who owns what and what licenses are granted.
The Simple Truth #
-
Instructors Own Their Content: You keep full ownership of your courses. You’re just giving us permission to host and distribute them.
-
Students Get Limited Licenses: Students can access courses for personal learning but can’t redistribute or sell the content.
-
Platform Owns the Platform: We own the GyanVapy Courses™ website, software, and brand.
-
No Transfer of Ownership: Nothing in these agreements transfers ownership of intellectual property—only licenses are granted.
