Users must not reproduce, distribute, modify, or commercially use Platform content to the disadvantage of NotesCafe Study OS, and not without prior written consent of NotesCafe Study OS management.
05Smart Notes
“Smart Notes” are the study notes prepared and published by NotesCafe Study OS, organised by exam, subject, chapter and topic, in English and Hindi. They are provided on the Platform to users whose plan includes them, and are also sold separately as downloadable PDF eBooks.
Sources and accuracy. Smart Notes are prepared from NCERT, standard book references, keywords from the syllabus and previous year question papers. Current-affairs Smart Notes are prepared from PIB releases, ministry publications and leading national dailies. We take care to keep Smart Notes accurate and up to date, but they may contain errors or omissions, and facts, figures, schemes and rules may change after a note is published. Smart Notes are a study aid, not a substitute for the prescribed syllabus, standard books or official notifications, and users should verify important information from official sources. The Educational Disclaimer in these Terms also applies to Smart Notes.
Your licence. Smart Notes are licensed, not sold. When you access Smart Notes through a plan or buy a Smart Notes eBook, NotesCafe Study OS grants you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable licence to read and use them for your own examination preparation. All rights in Smart Notes, including their text, structure, diagrams, maps, tables and images, remain with NotesCafe Study OS.
You may read Smart Notes on the Platform on your own devices, print a purchased eBook for your own study, and copy extracts into your personal notes on the Platform where the Platform allows it. Extracts copied into your personal notes remain NotesCafe Study OS content and stay covered by this licence.
You must not:
- Share, forward, upload or post Smart Notes, in full or in part, on any website, social media platform, messaging group (including WhatsApp and Telegram), cloud drive or file-sharing service
- Sell, resell, rent, lend or give away Smart Notes or a purchased eBook
- Use Smart Notes in coaching classes, printed material, test series, videos or any other product or service, whether paid or free
- Copy, translate, adapt or republish Smart Notes, or present them as your own work
- Remove, hide or alter any watermark, licence line, NotesCafe branding or source line on a Smart Note or eBook
- Scrape, bulk-download or extract Smart Notes using automated tools, or use them to train any artificial intelligence or machine-learning model
eBooks. Smart Notes eBooks are delivered only as PDF downloads. Every copy is stamped with the buyer’s name, mobile number and order reference and carries a visible watermark, so that each copy can be traced to its licensed buyer. The buyer is responsible for their copy, and a stamped copy found shared or distributed will be treated as a breach by that buyer. Purchased eBooks can be downloaded again from My eBooks using the same mobile number. Refunds for eBooks are governed by our Refund Policy.
Access through a plan. Smart Notes included in a plan or free trial can be accessed only while that plan or trial is active. When it ends, access to those Smart Notes ends with it.
Changes to Smart Notes. NotesCafe Study OS may revise, correct, reorganise, replace or withdraw any Smart Note at any time, for example to follow a change in the syllabus, add new previous year questions or correct an error.
Reporting errors. If you find an error in a Smart Note, please write to support@notes-cafe.com with the subject, chapter and topic, so that it can be checked and corrected.
Breach. Any breach of this section may lead to immediate suspension or termination of your account and eBook access without refund, and to action under the Copyright Act, 1957 and other applicable laws.
