Terms & Conditions

These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of sharpvisionmcq.com (the “Website”) and the digital educational products and materials made available through or in connection with the Website.

These include, where applicable, articles, practice questions, mock examinations, ebooks, downloadable resources, videos, email materials and other educational content (together, the “Content”).

Please read these Terms carefully before using the Website or purchasing any product.

By accessing the Website, creating or obtaining access to restricted Content, or purchasing a product, you agree to these Terms.

1.  About Sharp Vision MCQ

Sharp Vision MCQ provides educational materials designed primarily to assist candidates preparing for the Solicitors Qualifying Examination (“SQE”).

Sharp Vision MCQ is an independent digital educational content provider.  It is operated by Sharp Vision Consulting Co, Ltd.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, Sharp Vision MCQ is not affiliated with, authorised by, sponsored by or endorsed by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (“SRA”) or any SQE preparation provider, university or other educational institution.

References to the SQE, SRA, course providers or other third parties are made for descriptive, educational or informational purposes only.

2.  Educational Purpose

All Content is provided for general educational and informational purposes only.

The Content does not constitute:

• legal advice;
• professional advice;
• personalised educational or examination advice; or
• a substitute for independent study, professional instruction or verification against official sources.

No solicitor-client relationship, tutor-student professional relationship or other professional advisory relationship is created by your use of the Website or Content.

3.  No Guarantee of Examination Results

We do not represent, warrant or guarantee that use of the Website or Content will:

• result in passing the SQE or any other examination;
• produce any particular examination score;
• meet your individual learning requirements; or
• result in any particular academic, professional, employment or commercial outcome.

Examination performance depends on numerous factors outside our control, including your knowledge, preparation, examination technique and performance on the relevant assessment date.

Mock examination scores and practice-question performance should therefore be treated as educational indicators only and not as predictions or guarantees of your actual examination result.

4.  Accuracy and Changes in Law or Assessment Requirements

Reasonable efforts are made to ensure that Content is accurate when published.

However, laws, regulations, procedures, SRA requirements, SQE assessment specifications, syllabi and examination arrangements may change.

Errors or omissions may also occur.

You are responsible for checking important information against current and authoritative sources, including information published by the SRA.

We may correct, update, modify, replace, suspend or withdraw Content where reasonably necessary.

5.  Purchases

5.1 Product information

Before purchasing a product, you should review its description carefully, including where applicable:

• the nature of the Content;
• the number of questions;
• the number of permitted attempts;
• the period during which access is available;
• technical requirements;
• delivery arrangements; and
• any other restrictions stated on the relevant product page.

The product description available at the time of purchase forms part of your agreement with us.

5.2 Prices and payment

Prices will be displayed before you complete your purchase.

You are responsible for providing accurate information required to process the transaction.

Payments may be processed by third-party payment providers. Your use of a payment provider may also be subject to that provider’s own terms and privacy policy.

We do not guarantee that any particular payment method will remain available.

5.3 Order acceptance

Submission of an order does not necessarily constitute acceptance of that order.

We may refuse or cancel an order where reasonably necessary, including where:

• payment has not been authorised;
• the price or product information contained an obvious error;
• fraud or unauthorised activity is suspected;
• the product is unavailable because of a technical or other problem; or
• accepting the order would breach applicable law.

Where payment has already been collected for an order that we subsequently cancel, the relevant amount will be refunded unless there is a lawful reason not to do so.

6.  Digital Products and Refunds

Our products generally consist of digital educational Content and access to online assessments.

Except where applicable law provides otherwise, purchases are final once digital Content has been supplied or access has been provided.

Subject to your statutory rights, refunds will generally not be provided merely because:

• you change your mind after accessing the Content;
• you do not use all available examination attempts;
• you do not complete an examination or resource;
• your personal circumstances change;
• you are dissatisfied with your examination score;
• you do not pass the SQE or another examination; or
• you decide that you no longer require the product.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or restricts any consumer right or remedy that cannot lawfully be excluded or restricted.

Where applicable law provides a cancellation period for digital content, we may ask you at checkout to expressly request or consent to immediate supply of the digital Content and to acknowledge the effect that immediate supply has on any statutory cancellation right.

Where digital Content is faulty, materially not as described or otherwise does not satisfy rights that cannot lawfully be excluded, any applicable statutory rights and remedies remain unaffected.

7.  Mock Examinations and ClassMarker

Some mock examinations are delivered using the third-party assessment platform ClassMarker.

When purchasing or accessing such a mock examination, you acknowledge that:

• access may be subject to ClassMarker’s technical requirements, terms and policies;
• examination links or access credentials may be unique to you;
• access periods and attempt limits may apply;
• examination access is for your personal use only;
• you must not give another person access to your examination;
• internet, browser, device or third-party technical problems may affect your experience; and
• ClassMarker or other third-party services may occasionally experience interruptions or outages outside our reasonable control.

Where reasonably practicable, we will attempt to assist with genuine access problems affecting a purchased mock examination.

However, we do not control ClassMarker’s systems and cannot guarantee uninterrupted availability of third-party services.

8.  Intellectual Property

Unless otherwise stated, all intellectual property rights in the Website and Content are owned by or licensed to us.

This includes, without limitation:

• multiple-choice questions;
• factual scenarios;
• answer options;
• explanations and analyses;
• mock examinations;
• question banks;
• written articles;
• ebooks and downloadable resources;
• graphics and diagrams;
• videos;
• educational methodologies;
• website text and layout; and
• compilations and arrangements of educational materials.

Purchasing or obtaining access to Content does not transfer ownership of any intellectual property rights to you.

9.  Licence for Personal Use

Subject to these Terms, you are granted a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable licence to use the Content for your own non-commercial educational purposes.

Unless we expressly authorise it in writing, you must not:

• reproduce, copy, republish or distribute Content;
• sell, sublicense or commercially exploit Content;
• share paid or restricted Content with another person;
• share examination links, access codes or credentials;
• systematically screenshot, photograph or record questions, answers or explanations;
• extract or compile questions or other Content into another question bank or database;
• upload Content to another website, platform, shared drive or file-sharing service;
• use Content to create competing educational products;
• modify or create derivative educational materials substantially based on our Content;
• remove copyright, branding or proprietary notices; or
• represent our Content as official SRA material or as being endorsed by the SRA

10.  AI, Automated Extraction and Machine Learning

Unless we have provided prior written permission, you must not use automated systems, bots, scraping tools or similar technology to systematically access, copy, extract or reproduce Content from the Website or our assessment systems.

You must not upload substantial portions of our paid or restricted Content, question banks, mock examinations or answer explanations to an artificial intelligence system for the purpose of reproducing, extracting, compiling, distributing or creating a competing question bank, educational resource or commercial product.

Nothing in this clause prevents reasonable personal use of technology for your own study where that use does not involve unauthorised reproduction, distribution or commercial exploitation of our Content.

11.  Access and Misuse

We may suspend or terminate access to paid or restricted Content where we reasonably believe that:

• an examination link or access credential has been shared;
• multiple persons are using access intended for one purchaser;
• Content is being systematically copied or extracted;
• automated access or scraping is taking place;
• there has been fraudulent or unlawful activity; or
• these Terms have otherwise been materially breached.

Where appropriate, we may investigate suspicious activity before taking action.

Termination for misuse does not affect any other rights or remedies available to us.

12.  Acceptable Use

You must not:

• use the Website for unlawful or fraudulent purposes;
• attempt to gain unauthorised access to the Website, assessment systems or associated data;
• interfere with the security or operation of the Website;
• introduce malware or malicious code;
• attempt to circumvent technical restrictions or access controls;
• impersonate another person;
• use another person’s purchased access without permission; or
• use the Website or Content in a manner that infringes the rights of another person.

13.  Third-Party Services and Links

The Website may use or link to third-party services, including services relating to:

• payment processing;
• mock examination delivery;
• website hosting;
• email communications;
• analytics; and
• external educational or regulatory information.

Third-party services are operated independently and may have their own terms and privacy policies.

A link to a third-party website does not constitute endorsement of that website or its content unless expressly stated otherwise.

We are not responsible for the availability, content, security or practices of independent third-party services, subject to any responsibility that cannot lawfully be excluded.

14.  Technical Requirements and Availability

You are responsible for maintaining a suitable:

• device;
• internet connection;
• browser;
• email account; and
• other software or equipment necessary to access the relevant digital product.

We aim to provide reasonable availability but do not guarantee that the Website or any online product may be uninterrupted or error-free.

Maintenance, security issues, technical failures and circumstances outside our reasonable control may occasionally affect availability.

15.  Limitation of Liability

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability where such liability cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.

Subject to that qualification and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, we shall not be liable for loss arising solely from:

• reliance on educational Content as professional or legal advice;
• examination results or performance;
• changes to laws, regulations or examination requirements occurring after Content was prepared;
• temporary technical interruptions outside our reasonable control;
• third-party service outages;
• your failure to comply with technical requirements; or
• unauthorised use or sharing of access credentials by you.

Where you use the Website or Content for business or commercial purposes contrary to the intended personal educational use, we shall not be liable for loss of profits, business, revenue, opportunity or anticipated savings to the fullest extent permitted by law.

These Terms do not affect statutory consumer rights that cannot lawfully be excluded.

16.  Privacy

Our collection and use of personal data is governed by our Privacy Policy.

You should read the Privacy Policy before submitting personal data or purchasing a product.

17.  Changes to These Terms

We may amend these Terms from time to time to reflect changes to:

• our products;
• technology or third-party platforms;
• applicable law or regulation; or
• our business operations.

The current version will be published on the Website together with its “Last updated” date.

Changes will not retrospectively remove statutory or contractual rights that have already arisen.

18.  Severability

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable, that provision shall, to the extent required, be treated as modified or removed without affecting the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions.

19.  No Waiver

If we do not immediately enforce a provision of these Terms, this does not mean that we have waived our right to enforce it later.

20.  Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them are governed by the laws of Hong Kong.

Subject to any mandatory consumer protection rights relating to jurisdiction that may apply in the country where you reside, the courts of Hong Kong shall have jurisdiction in relation to disputes arising out of or in connection with these Terms.
