2. What the Service provi⁠d⁠e⁠s

Information about studying and living abroad (schools, housing, jobs, insurance, mobile data, and more), and listings of the schools and businesses that offer them. Any contract for a listed service is made directly between you and that school or business; the Service is not a party to it. However, contracts for the operator's own services listed in section 8 are made between you and the operator (BLOOM CONSULTING) under the terms of that servi⁠c⁠e⁠.

3. Sales to us⁠e⁠r⁠s

The Service does not sell any products or services to users. Browsing, searching, sending inquiries, and requesting a study-⁠abroad consultation are free of charge. The Service never collects payments from use⁠r⁠s⁠.

4. Paid services for businesses (listings, advertisi⁠n⁠g⁠)

Paid services for schools and businesses, such as listings and advertising placements, are governed by individual agreements, application forms, or listing terms. Fees, payment methods, payment timing, cancellation, and refunds are as set out in those individual terms (see Section 11 of the Terms of Service⁠)⁠.

5. Other services run by the same opera⁠t⁠o⁠r

The sales terms for those services are shown on their own websit⁠e⁠s⁠.
