Terms of use
Last updated 6 November 2026
These are the rules for using Note Academy. By using the site or making an account you agree to them. We have tried to keep them short and readable.
What Note Academy is
Note Academy is a revision tool for Cambridge O-Level and A-Level and IB Diploma students: past papers split into individual questions, topic drills, timed mock exams, progress tracking and an AI tutor. It is an independent project. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Cambridge University Press & Assessment, Cambridge Assessment International Education or the International Baccalaureate Organization.
Who runs Note Academy
Note Academy is run by an individual in Pakistan, not by a company. You can reach us at ali.ateeb322@gmail.com or through the contact form.
Who can use it
Anyone can browse without an account. To make an account you must be at least 13. If you are under 18, or under the age at which you can agree to terms yourself where you live, you need a parent or guardian's permission to make an account or use the AI tutor. Children under 13 may not make an account. You are responsible for keeping your password safe and for what happens under your account.
Past papers and other people's material
Past papers, mark schemes, examiner reports and grade thresholds are published by Cambridge University Press & Assessment and remain theirs. We present them so students can revise from them; using this site does not give you any right to copy or redistribute them beyond what the exam board allows. Our own work — the site, the way questions are split, tagged and presented, and the features built on them — belongs to us. Please do not copy it in bulk.
Using the site fairly
Please do not:
- use the site to break the law, or to harass, threaten or impersonate anyone;
- try to get into other people's accounts, or into parts of the site you have not been given access to;
- scrape the site, or send automated or excessive requests to it;
- upload anything to the tutor that is unlawful, that shows other people, or that contains someone's personal details;
- share your account, or resell access to it.
We may limit or close an account that breaks these rules, and may remove content that is uploaded to it.
Your progress, streaks and badges
Streaks, daily goals, badges and achievements are there to encourage you to keep going. They do not predict, and are not, an exam result. Marks on structured questions are given by you against the mark scheme, so they are only as accurate as your own marking. Any “about a grade…” note on a mock exam is a rough guide based on published grade thresholds, and real grade boundaries change every session.
The AI tutor
The tutor, the explanations you can ask for on the results page, and the AI marking of your written answers are study aids. They can be wrong. Check them against your textbook, your teacher and the official mark scheme, and never treat what they say as an official mark or a guarantee of an exam grade. A mark from the AI is only a suggestion; the marks you choose to keep are your own. They refuse some requests, and may sometimes be unavailable. Your questions and uploads are handled as described in our privacy policy, including that they are sent to outside AI providers. Each account has a daily limit on AI requests, shared by the tutor, explanations and AI marking, which depends on your plan.
The AI is there to help you study. Use it for your schoolwork, and do not use it to produce anything unlawful, hateful, sexual, violent or harmful, to pass off its answers as an official mark or result, or to cheat in a real exam. We screen uploads and the AI is told to refuse such requests, but no filter is perfect. If an answer is offensive, unsafe or wrong, press Report this answer under it (or “Think this mark is wrong?” under an AI mark) and a person will read your report. Reporting does not use up any AI requests. We may remove content and limit or close accounts that misuse the AI.
Sharing results
A result card you share shows a score from your own practice, which we cannot verify, so it is not an official result and must not be presented as one. Do not share a card to mislead anyone. You can delete a card at any time.
Free and paid plans
Everything for revising — papers, drills, mock exams, worksheets, notes, flashcards and progress tracking — is free. The AI tutor, explanations and marking are limited: a free account gets 10 free AI requests to start, then 1 a week, and a paid plan has higher daily and 30-day limits. A plan does not unlock the revision features, which stay free for everyone. What each plan includes, and its price, is shown on the pricing page.
- How payment works. You pay by the bank or wallet transfer shown on your Plan page, then tell us the transaction ID. We check the payment by hand, so your plan starts when we approve it, not the moment you send money. We aim to do this promptly but cannot promise a time.
- Pro lasts 30 days from approval. If you pay again before it ends, the new period is added to the end of the current one. An Exam Pass gives Pro until the date shown when you buy it.
- Lifetime lasts for as long as Note Academy offers the AI features.
- If we cannot match a payment, we reject it and tell you why on your Plan page. If something has gone wrong with a payment, or you think you are owed a refund, contact us and we will look at it case by case.
- Only pay into the accounts shown on your own Plan page while signed in. We will never ask you to pay anywhere else or to send us a password.
Availability, and what we are not responsible for
We work to keep the site running and accurate, but it is provided “as it is”. Questions can be mis-cropped, mis-tagged or wrongly matched to a mark scheme, and the site can be down. Please report anything wrong through the contact form and we will fix it. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for losses that come from using, or being unable to use, the site — including exam results. Nothing in these terms limits any right you have by law that cannot be limited.
Ending things
You can stop using the site at any time, and delete your account yourself from the delete your account page (see the privacy policy). We may change or stop parts of the site at any time; if we end a paid plan early for reasons other than a breach of these terms, we will make it right with you.
Which law applies
These terms are governed by the laws of Pakistan, and any dispute we cannot settle between us goes to the courts there. This does not take away any right you have under the consumer law of the country where you live that cannot be waived.
Changes
We may update these terms. When we do, we will change the date at the top. If you keep using the site after a change, you accept the new version. Questions? Use the contact form.
