3. Course Enrolment and Access
3.1 Enrolment
Course enrolment is confirmed upon successful payment. You will receive immediate access to the enrolled course upon payment confirmation. Free courses are accessible upon account registration without payment.
3.2 Course Access
Upon enrolment, you are granted a personal, non-transferable, non-exclusive licence to access and view the Course Content for your own personal learning and non-commercial purposes. This licence does not permit you to:
- Share your account or course access with any other person
- Download, copy, reproduce, or distribute Course Content in any form

- Record, screen-capture, or extract video lessons or materials from the Platform
3.3 Access Duration
Unless otherwise specified on the course page, your access to enrolled courses is lifetime access — meaning it continues for as long as the course remains available on the Platform. We reserve the right to retire or update courses and will provide reasonable advance notice if a course is to be removed.
4. Fees and Payment
4.1 Course Pricing
Course prices are displayed in Nigerian Naira (NGN) on each course page. Prices are inclusive of any applicable fees. We reserve the right to change course prices at any time. Price changes do not affect courses you have already purchased.
4.2 Payment Processing
All payments are processed through Paystack. By making a payment, you also agree to Paystack’s terms of service. We do not store your payment card details. You are responsible for ensuring payment details are accurate and that sufficient funds are available.
4.3 Promotional Pricing
We may from time to time offer promotional or discounted pricing. Promotions apply only for the period specified and may not be combined with other offers. Promotional prices are not available retrospectively to students who purchased at full price.
5. Refund Policy
5.1 Standard Refund Window
You are entitled to a full refund if you request it within 14 days of enrolment and have completed less than 20% of the course. This policy reflects our confidence in the quality of our courses while protecting the investment of time put into creating them.
5.2 How to Request a Refund
To request a refund, email [email protected] with your name, the course name, your account email address, and the reason for your request. We will process eligible refunds within 5 working days of approval. Refunds are returned to the original payment method used.

6. Certificates

- Are issued in your registered name — ensure your name is correctly entered in your account profile before completing a course
- Include the course title, completion date, and Donal Digital Academy branding
- Are for personal use — you may share them on LinkedIn, include them in your CV, or use them as evidence of skills with clients or employers
- Are not academic or government-recognised qualifications — they are professional development certificates from a private training provider
If your certificate contains an error due to our mistake, contact us and we will issue a corrected certificate at no charge.
