15. Free Courses, Certificates & Online Orders

EDWartens India publishes a catalogue of free, self-paced online courses at edwartens.co.in/free-courses. These terms apply to them in addition to the rest of this document.

15.1 What a free course is

A free course is a study plan, written notes, practice tasks and a final assessment prepared by EDWartens, arranged around video lessons that stream from their creators' own YouTube channels through YouTube's embedded player. EDWartens does not host, copy, download or sell that footage; the creators are named on each course page, are not affiliated with EDWartens, and do not endorse the course. A lesson may become unavailable if its creator removes or restricts it, and EDWartens may replace or withdraw lessons without notice. Product names, logos and software titles are trademarks of their owners and are used only to identify the subject taught.

15.2 Accounts and orders

Taking a free course requires an account and an order. An order is placed through the cart and is complete when it is marked paid, including a ₹0 order, at which point the course is added to your portal and a receipt is issued. You must be 16 or over to create an account; if you are 16 or 17, you need a parent's or guardian's consent, which you confirm when you sign up. You may hold one account; the information you give must be accurate and the phone number and email must be yours. You can delete your account yourself at any time from your account settings (Settings, then Privacy and data, then Delete account), or by writing to info@wartens.com; order and receipt records are kept as the privacy policy explains. Courses are licensed to you personally for your own learning; you may not share your login, redistribute the notes or assessments, or use the material to run training for others.

15.3 Certificates

A Certificate of Completion is optional and separately priced. It is issued only after every module of the course is complete and the final assessment is passed, and it is delivered electronically to your portal and a public verification page. It is an EDWartens certificate issued by Wartens Automation Pvt Ltd: it is not a vendor certification (for example from Siemens, Rockwell or any other manufacturer), not a university or government qualification, not a CPD-accredited activity, and not a statement of competence on live equipment. Certificate fees are priced by the country on your account and by the level of the course. In India they are quoted in Indian rupees inclusive of GST, collected through Razorpay, and shown on a tax receipt issued by Wartens Automation Pvt Ltd. Outside India they are quoted and charged in US dollars, collected through Stripe, and the receipt is issued by Wartens Ltd, our United Kingdom company; no Indian GST applies to that supply. The price shown to you before you pay is the price charged. Discount codes are applied at checkout, may be limited in number and time, and cannot be exchanged for cash. EDWartens may cancel a certificate that was obtained by sharing answers, impersonation or any other breach of these terms.

15.4 Reviews

Learners who finish every module of a course may publish a review under the display name they choose. Reviews must be your own honest experience; EDWartens may remove reviews that are abusive, off-topic or not written by a learner, and does not write, buy or edit reviews.

15.5 No job guarantee on free courses

The job guarantee, placement support and refund terms described elsewhere in these terms apply only to the paid classroom programmes. Free courses and certificates carry no placement, employment or salary promise of any kind.
