These Illinois Adult Drivers Education Terms & Conditions (the “Agreement”) govern your enrollment in and use of the Illinois Adult Drivers Education course (the “Course”) provided by Get Drivers Ed through the website located at www.getdriversed.com (the “Website”). By registering for, accessing, or using the Course, you agree to be bound by this Agreement. If you do not agree, do not enroll or use the Course.
This Agreement is in addition to Get Drivers Ed’s general Website Terms & Conditions and Privacy Policy (collectively, the “Site Terms”). The Site Terms continue to apply to your use of the Website and services generally. In the event of a conflict between this Agreement and the Site Terms, this Agreement controls for students enrolled in the Illinois Adult Drivers Education Course.
The Course is intended for first‑time Illinois driver license applicants ages 18 through 20.
You represent that all information you provide during registration and throughout the Course is true, accurate, current, and complete.
If you are under 18, you may take this Course only with a parent or legal guardian’s consent and supervision, and only if permitted by Illinois law.
Regulatory Notice. The Course is designed to meet Illinois Secretary of State (“IL SOS”) Adult Drivers Education requirements and is offered subject to IL SOS approval and any conditions attached to that approval. Completion of the Course does not itself grant a driver license. You must satisfy all Illinois requirements, which typically include identity verification, vision screening, knowledge testing, possible driving skills testing, and payment of applicable state fees.
Upon successful completion of all modules, time requirements (if applicable), and required assessments, you will be issued a Certificate of Completion (“Certificate”). The Certificate acknowledges completion of the Course only.
It is your responsibility to deliver the Certificate to the IL SOS and to comply with all licensing requirements. Get Drivers Ed is not responsible for delays or denials by the IL SOS.
Get Drivers Ed does not guarantee that you will pass any IL SOS examination, obtain a driver license, or achieve any particular outcome as a result of taking the Course.
To protect the integrity of Illinois licensing and certification:
You must complete the Course personally, without substitution or unauthorized assistance. Allowing another person to access your account or complete any portion of the Course for you is strictly prohibited.
You consent to reasonable identity and participation validation measures (e.g., security questions, IP checks, time‑stamped activity logs, or other non‑invasive methods) designed to deter impersonation or fraud.
Legal Warning. Misrepresenting your identity, falsifying information, or attempting to circumvent the Course or its controls may invalidate your Certificate, result in course termination without refund, and may expose you to civil penalties and/or criminal prosecution under applicable Illinois and federal law. We may report suspected fraud to the IL SOS or other authorities and cooperate with lawful investigations.
Course access begins on the purchase date and continues for twelve (12) months. If your access expires before completion, you may request reactivation for a fee according to then‑current policies.
We may perform scheduled maintenance and implement updates to improve performance or compliance. During such periods, the Course may be unavailable. Emergency maintenance may also occur without prior notice. Maintenance and downtime do not entitle you to compensation.
To help ensure uninterrupted learning, you are responsible for:
Maintaining a reliable high‑speed internet connection and using a supported, up‑to‑date web browser and device.
Configuring security software, VPNs, and firewall settings that could otherwise block access or disrupt streaming or assessments.
Backing up your own data (e.g., personal notes) and ensuring power/battery availability during lessons or assessments.
We do not guarantee compatibility with every device, operating system, or browser configuration. Performance may vary due to third‑party services (e.g., your ISP) beyond our control.
You must keep your login credentials confidential and promptly notify us of any suspected unauthorized access.
You are responsible for all activity under your account. The Company is not liable for losses arising from failure to secure your account.
You agree not to:
Share, lend, or sell your access credentials.
Evade, disable, or bypass any security or validation features.
Copy, record, scrape, or redistribute Course content, except as expressly permitted for personal educational use.
Interfere with the Website, its servers, or networks (e.g., via bots, automation, or malicious code).
Misuse support channels, engage in abusive behavior toward staff, or harass other users.
Violations may result in immediate suspension or termination (see Section 16) and may be reported to the IL SOS when appropriate.
You must complete all required modules and assessments in good faith and meet any minimum score or time requirements that apply.
By completing the Course, you certify that you, and only you, reviewed all materials and answered assessment questions.
Certificates may be delivered electronically (download) and/or made available within your account. You are responsible for retaining your Certificate and submitting it to the IL SOS.
Consistent with our Site Terms, you may request a full refund if you have not started the Course and your request is submitted within three (3) days of purchase.
Refund requests must be initiated by emailing support@getdriversed.com.
Once the Course has been accessed, refunds are not available. If you file a chargeback instead of following our refund process, you may forfeit eligibility under this policy.
Prices and fees are listed at checkout and are subject to change prospectively.
You are responsible for any applicable taxes.
We may offer optional add‑ons or services at additional cost. Any recurring services (if offered) will be billed per their specific terms.
For general questions, technical assistance, or account support, contact support@getdriversed.com. We strive to respond promptly during normal business hours. Availability and response times may vary on weekends, holidays, or during high‑volume periods.

These Ohio-specific Terms & Conditions (“Ohio Terms”) govern your enrollment in and use of GetDriversEd’s online driver education offerings for Ohio (collectively, the “Ohio Programs”). By registering for, accessing, or using any Ohio Program on getdriversed.com (the “Website”), you agree to these Ohio Terms and to the GetDriversEd Website Terms & Conditions and Privacy Policy (together, the “Website Terms”). If there is a conflict between these Ohio Terms and the Website Terms, the stricter requirement necessary to comply with Ohio law or rule controls for the Ohio Programs.
These Ohio Terms apply to the following online programs we offer for Ohio learners:
Ohio Teen Driver Education (Online Theory – 24 hours) for students generally 15 years 5 months through under 18; behind-the-wheel (“BTW”) is separate and must be completed with a licensed driving school.
Ohio Abbreviated Adult Driver Training (Online Theory – 4 hours) for adults 18+ who need this course prior to retesting; students must also complete 24 hours of supervised driving with a licensed adult (affidavit required) or 4 hours of BTW with a licensed instructor.
Ohio Adult Remedial (8-Hour) Course — when the online format is permitted by Ohio rules, we offer the online portion as allowed; where in-person components are required by rule, the remaining requirements must be completed accordingly.
Jurisdictional Approval. Our Ohio Programs satisfy specific Ohio requirements only where authorized by the Ohio Department of Public Safety (ODPS). If a particular course or delivery mode is not approved for your use case, you may access the content for general educational purposes only and it will not by itself satisfy state licensing requirements. Always review the Ohio Program page at enrollment for the most current approval status, delivery method, and requirements.
Teen Driver Education: You must be at least 15 years and 5 months at enrollment and under 18. A parent or legal guardian should review and consent to these Ohio Terms for minors.
Abbreviated Adult: You must be 18 or older.
Adult Remedial: You must meet ODPS eligibility for the remedial program you are taking (e.g., point credit, court order, reinstatement).
Safety notice: Do not study or interact with the Website while operating a vehicle.
You agree to provide accurate registration information, keep your login credentials confidential, and promptly notify us of any unauthorized use of your account. To protect academic integrity and comply with Ohio requirements, you must complete identity/participation validation steps (e.g., security questions, time-stamped activity checks) during coursework and at final assessments.
Repeated validation failures may trigger temporary lockouts or require re-authentication as permitted by rule.
Any attempt to misrepresent identity, have someone else complete coursework or testing, or circumvent the course platform may result in termination without refund, certificate invalidation, and reporting to ODPS or other authorities where appropriate.
Ohio imposes strict timing and daily-limit rules. Our system enforces these limits; no extensions are granted unless permitted by Ohio rule.
Total instruction: 24 hours (online classroom-equivalent).
Completion window: Within 180 days (six months) from the first date of training, unless the Department approves mitigating circumstances. If not approved, training is void and must be retaken.
Daily cap: Maximum 4 hours per calendar day.
Breaks: A break is required after two consecutive hours of instruction.
Online theory: 4 hours.
Completion window: Within 3 months from the first date of training (documented mitigating circumstances may be considered by the Department where allowed).
If choosing theory + BTW: The combined total in a single day (theory + BTW) may not exceed 6 hours. If 4 hours of theory were taken the same day, a minimum 30-minute break is required before any same-day BTW. For BTW lessons exceeding two hours, a 10-minute break is required.
If choosing theory + 24-hour affidavit: You must complete 24 hours of supervised driving (no more than 4 hours/day) with a licensed adult and submit the required affidavit per Ohio rules before retesting.
Completion window: You must complete the full 8 hours within 30 days of starting, or you must start over as required by rule.
Integrity controls: Online remedial delivery (where authorized) uses timers, validation, and exam safeguards to verify participation.
Regulatory precedence: If our Website Terms provide a longer general access window (e.g., 12 months), the Ohio rule-based deadlines above control for the Ohio Programs.
Teen Driver Education (Online): Final exam uses a state-aligned test bank. A minimum passing score(commonly 75%) is required. Immediate answer feedback may be restricted until submission. Retake limits and spacing (e.g., waiting periods such as 24 hours) are enforced as permitted by rule.
Abbreviated Adult (Online): Final exam uses a state-aligned bank with a minimum passing score (commonly 75%). Classroom/virtual-classroom versions (if taken) may require in-person administration by a licensed instructor using ODPS materials; retake limitations apply.
Adult Remedial (Online): Online testing procedures include identity/authentication and exam integrity measures. Retakes follow applicable rules and platform safeguards.
Specific scoring, retake counts, spacing, and proctoring requirements may change if Ohio rules are updated; the Ohio Program page will reflect current requirements.
We issue a Certificate of Completion after you finish all required modules, meet hour/time requirements, and pass all required assessments.
For programs with additional requirements (e.g., BTW or 24-hour affidavit), you are responsible for completing and submitting all required documentation to the appropriate Ohio authority.
Duplicate / Reissue: If your certificate is lost or stolen, we may issue a duplicate upon your signed request; any fee will be reasonable and within Ohio-permitted limits (not to exceed applicable state caps, if specified).
We maintain course records, activity logs, validation events, and exam results for the periods required by Ohio rules and may disclose them to regulators or law enforcement where legally required.
For Teen Driver Education, we provide online theory only. BTW must be scheduled and completed with a licensed driver training school. We make available or link to the state’s list of approved schools so you can arrange BTW directly. BTW availability, schedules, and fees are set by the school you select.
You are responsible for ensuring a reliable internet connection and an up-to-date, supported browser/device. Performance may vary due to third-party services (e.g., your ISP) beyond our control. We may perform scheduled or emergency maintenance; interruptions do not extend Ohio regulatory deadlines unless the Department approves as mitigating circumstances.
Our Website Terms apply: You may request a full refund if you have not started the course and your request is submitted within three (3) days of purchase by contacting support@getdriversed.com. Enrollment may be canceled for a full refund within three (3) days of signup provided the course has not been started or completed.
Once a course has been accessed, refunds are not available unless required by law or expressly stated on the program page.
You may not:
Share or transfer your account;
Misrepresent identity or have another person complete any part of the course or exam;
Bypass timers, validation, or security features;
Copy, record, scrape, or redistribute course materials;
Use bots, automation, or malicious code to access the Website;
Harass staff or other users.
We may suspend or terminate access without refund for violations and, where appropriate, notify ODPS.
We do not guarantee that you will pass any test, obtain/retain a license, receive point credit, or achieve any particular outcome. Decisions about permits, licenses, points, reinstatement, and related matters are made by Ohio authorities and/or courts.
Teen Driver Education content includes material on organ/tissue donation (Second Chance Trust Fund) and the dangers of texting/emailing while driving, as required by Ohio rules.
Adult Remedial online courses (where authorized) include authentication, timers, exam integrity, and may be audited by the Department. Completion must occur within 30 days of starting.
If you require a reasonable accommodation to access course content or testing, please contact support@getdriversed.com before beginning the program. We will work in good faith to support accessibility consistent with Ohio rules and applicable law.
Prices and fees are shown at checkout and may change prospectively. You authorize us and our payment processors to charge all sums for your orders, including any applicable taxes and reactivation fees. Processing and third-party fees may be non-refundable unless required by law.
If a program includes optional recurring services, your payment method will be billed on the stated cycle until canceled per the applicable subscription terms (we will give reasonable notice of price changes).
Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect and use personal data (e.g., administering accounts, verifying identity/participation, issuing certificates, compliance reporting, support). By enrolling, you consent to receive service-related communications (email/SMS). Standard carrier rates may apply. You may manage preferences or withdraw marketing consent as described in the Privacy Policy and messages.
We may collect device, browser, and session telemetry (e.g., timestamps, page views, validation events) to deliver the course, maintain security, verify participation, and improve the program. We may create aggregated or de-identified statistics from this data; such statistics do not identify you.
All course materials and Website content are owned by GetDriversEd or its licensors. We grant you a limited, non-transferable, non-exclusive license to access the applicable Ohio Program for your personal, non-commercial educational use during your access window. Reverse engineering, scraping, or creating derivative works is prohibited except as permitted by law.
Confidentiality. The course materials, assessment banks, platform workflows, and non-public documentation are GetDriversEd confidential information. You agree not to disclose, copy, or use them for any purpose other than completing your enrolled program. We may seek temporary or preliminary injunctive relief (without posting a bond where permitted) to prevent misuse or disclosure, in addition to any other remedies.
To align with Ohio rules and improve instruction, we may update curriculum units, timers, validation steps, or user interface elements. Certain features may be modified or retired without advance notice. These changes do not extend statutory Ohio completion windows.
Optional Ohio-related add-ons (e.g., expedited certificate reissue, duplicate certificates within Ohio fee limits, printed mailings) may be offered at additional cost and are governed by any supplemental terms displayed at purchase. Core Ohio statutory deadlines and hour/validation rules continue to apply.
We may suspend or terminate your access (with or without notice) if we reasonably believe you violated these Ohio Terms, the Website Terms, or applicable law; engaged in fraud or misuse; or compromised course integrity. Termination for cause does not entitle you to a refund. We may preserve information and cooperate with lawful investigations or regulator requests.
The Ohio Programs and the Website are provided “as is” and “as available.” To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties (express, implied, statutory). We do not warrant uninterrupted or error-free service or compatibility with every device/configuration.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, GetDriversEd and its affiliates will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages. Our total liability for any claim related to an Ohio Program will not exceed the amount you paid for that program (or any non-waivable statutory minimum, if greater).
To the fullest extent permitted by law, you and GetDriversEd agree to binding arbitration of disputes on an individual basis under the rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA), with the seat of arbitration in Austin, Texas. Class actions and representative proceedings are waived, and jury trial is waived. Either party may seek temporary or preliminary injunctive relief in court to protect rights pending arbitration. Nothing in this section limits any non-waivable rights under Ohio or federal law.
These Ohio Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas (without regard to conflict-of-laws principles), except that Ohio law and rules control where Ohio law expressly governs instruction, completion, testing, certificates, advertising, and compliance for the Ohio Programs. Any litigation permitted outside arbitration must be filed exclusively in courts located in Austin, Texas.

We may provide notices via email, Website postings, or account messaging. Your notices to us must be sent to support@getdriversed.com (subject line: “Ohio Programs – Legal Notice”) and are deemed given upon confirmed receipt. We will cooperate with ODPS on regulator notices or information requests as required by law.
Severability: If any provision is found unenforceable, it will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted and the remainder will remain in effect.
Assignment: You may not assign these Ohio Terms without our prior written consent; we may assign in connection with a merger, acquisition, or reorganization.
No Waiver: A failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of future enforcement.
Entire Agreement: These Ohio Terms, together with the Website Terms and any program-specific disclosures on the Ohio Program page, are the entire agreement for the Ohio Programs.
Survival: Provisions that by their nature should survive (including identity/validation, IP restrictions, records, disclaimers, limitations, indemnities, dispute resolution, governing law, and regulatory precedence) survive any expiration or termination.
Questions about enrollment, technical access, certificates, or Ohio program logistics
Email: support@getdriversed.comThese California-specific Terms & Conditions (“California Terms”) govern your enrollment in and use of GetDriversEd’s online driver education offerings for California (collectively, the “California Programs”). By registering for, accessing, or using any California Program on getdriversed.com (the “Website”), you agree to these California Terms and to the GetDriversEd Website Terms & Conditions and Privacy Policy (together, the “Website Terms”). If there is a conflict between these California Terms and the Website Terms, the stricter requirement necessary to comply with California law or DMV rules controls for the California Programs.
These California Terms apply to the following online programs we offer for California learners:
California Teen Driver Education (Online Classroom-Equivalent) — a DMV-approved driver education program that satisfies California’s 30-hour classroom-equivalent requirement or its accepted online/home-study equivalent for minors preparing to apply for a provisional instruction permit.
Recommended Content for Adults — where adult online education is used for knowledge preparation only (e.g., practice tests, refresher modules), the course is educational and does not by itself substitute for any DMV-required remedial, negligent-operator, or court-ordered program unless expressly stated on the program page.
Jurisdictional Approval. Our California Teen Driver Education course satisfies California driver education (DE)requirements only to the extent authorized by the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV). If a particular course/delivery mode is not approved for your use case, you may access the content for recommended purposes only and it will not by itself satisfy DMV licensing requirements. See DMV guidance on DE/DT and the 30-hour requirement.
Teen Driver Education: You may start DE at age 15 (you must be 15½ to take the DMV knowledge test for the instruction permit). A parent or legal guardian should review and consent to these California Terms for minors. Key DMV steps and timing for teens are outlined in DMV’s teen materials.
Adults: Adults may take our recommended educational content; separate adult programs mandated by statute or court are provided only if explicitly stated on the program page.
Safety notice: Do not study or interact with the Website while operating a vehicle.
You agree to provide accurate registration information, keep your login credentials confidential, and promptly notify us of any unauthorized use of your account. To protect academic integrity and comply with DMV expectations, you must complete identity/participation validation steps (e.g., security questions, time-stamped activity checks) during coursework and at final assessments.
Repeated validation failures may trigger temporary lockouts or require re-authentication.
Any attempt to misrepresent identity, have someone else complete coursework or testing, or circumvent the course platform may result in termination without refund, certificate invalidation, and (where appropriate) reporting to regulators.
Driver Education Hours. California driver education must consist of 30 hours of instruction (or 2½ semester periods) of professional classroom training or a home-study/internet program meeting the same requirements. Our online DE course is designed to meet the DMV’s equivalency requirement.
Pacing & Breaks. You control your pacing subject to platform timers and quiz gates. We recommend periodic breaks for effective learning. (The DMV’s requirement is total 30 hours; it does not prescribe per-day maximums on our online DE. We may apply platform time-on-task limits to promote comprehension.)
Access window. Unless a California rule states otherwise, your course access follows our Website Terms (e.g., 12 months of access from purchase). Where DMV rules impose recordkeeping or other timing constraints, those rules control.
Unit quizzes and a final assessment are required to demonstrate mastery aligned to DMV DE curriculum expectations.
Retake limits and any spacing (e.g., cooling-off intervals) may be enforced by the platform to promote learning integrity.
We may require additional identity checks or exam review before issuing a certificate.
DL 400C / DL 400B Certificates. After completing all required instruction and assessments, you will receive an original Certificate of Completion of Non-Classroom Driver Education (DL 400C) (or DL 400B if applicable to a DMV-licensed driving school classroom program). These are DMV-controlled certificate forms.
Submission & Use. The certificate evidences completion of DE and is used to qualify for the provisional instruction permit process; it must be used with the DMV’s applicable application steps.
Duplicate / Reissue. If your certificate is lost or damaged, we may reissue a duplicate upon identity verification; any fee will be reasonable and consistent with DMV certificate control rules/logging obligations for licensed schools (e.g., certificate logs).
Recordkeeping. We maintain course records, activity logs, validation events, and exam results for the periods required by law, and we may disclose them to the DMV or law enforcement where legally required.
GetDriversEd’s online DE covers classroom-equivalent instruction only. California requires 6 hours of behind-the-wheel driver training (DT) with a DMV-licensed driving school for minors, plus at least 50 hours of supervised practice, including 10 hours at night, with a parent/guardian or a licensed driver age 25+. You must also hold your instruction permit for at least 6 months before the drive test. The DMV provides official resources and a searchable list of licensed driving schools.
You are responsible for ensuring a reliable internet connection and an up-to-date, supported browser/device. Service performance may vary due to your ISP or other third-party factors beyond our control. We may perform scheduled or emergency maintenance; interruptions do not alter DMV requirements or certificate conditions.
Our Website Terms apply: You may request a full refund if you have not started the course and your request is submitted within three (3) days of purchase by contacting support@getdriversed.com. Enrollment may be canceled for a full refund within three (3) days of signup provided the course has not been started or completed.
Once a course has been accessed, refunds are not available unless required by law or expressly stated on the program page.
You may not:
Share or transfer your account;
Misrepresent identity or have another person complete any part of the course or exam;
Bypass timers, validation, or platform security features;
Copy, record, scrape, or redistribute course materials;
Use bots, automation, or malicious code to access the Website;
Harass staff or other users.
We may suspend or terminate access without refund for violations and, where appropriate, cooperate with the DMV.
We do not guarantee that you will pass any DMV test, obtain/retain a license, or achieve any particular outcome. DMV decisions about permits, licenses, and related matters are independent of our course and governed by DMV rules and processes.
DE Curriculum Equivalency: Internet/home-study DE must meet the same requirements as classroom instruction.
Practice Hours: Document at least 50 hours (including 10 night hours) of supervised practice with a licensed adult 25+; the DMV provides a Parent-Teen Training Guide and optional practice log.
DT Certificate: A licensed school issues a Driver Training completion certificate after 6 hours of DT—present it with your supervised practice attestation and meet the 6-month permit hold before testing.
If you require a reasonable accommodation to access course content or testing, please contact support@getdriversed.com before beginning the program. We will work in good faith to support accessibility consistent with California law.
Prices and fees are shown at checkout and may change prospectively. You authorize us and our payment processors to charge all sums for your orders, including any applicable taxes and reactivation fees. Processing and third-party fees may be non-refundable unless required by law.
If a program includes optional recurring services, your payment method will be billed on the stated cycle until canceled per the applicable subscription terms (we will give reasonable notice of price changes).
Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect and use personal data (e.g., administering accounts, verifying identity/participation, issuing certificates, compliance reporting, support). California residents may exercise rights under the CCPA/CPRA as described in our Privacy Policy (access, deletion, correction, opt-out of sale/sharing, and limit use of sensitive information where applicable). By enrolling, you consent to receive service-related communications (email/SMS). Standard carrier rates may apply.
Under California Civil Code Section 1789.3, California users are entitled to the following specific consumer rights notice: The Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Services of the California Department of Consumer Affairs may be contacted in writing at 1625 N. Market Blvd., Suite S-202, Sacramento, CA 95834, or by telephone at (800) 952-5210. If you have a question or complaint regarding the Services, you may also contact License Me at support@getdriversed.com
We may collect device, browser, and session telemetry (e.g., timestamps, page views, validation events) to deliver the course, maintain security, verify participation, and improve the program. We may create aggregated or de-identified statistics from this data; such statistics do not identify you.
All course materials and Website content are owned by GetDriversEd or its licensors. We grant you a limited, non-transferable, non-exclusive license to access the applicable California Program for your personal, non-commercial educational use during your access window. Reverse engineering, scraping, or creating derivative works is prohibited except as permitted by law.
Confidentiality. The course materials, assessment banks, platform workflows, and non-public documentation are GetDriversEd confidential information. You agree not to disclose, copy, or use them for any purpose other than completing your enrolled program. We may seek temporary or preliminary injunctive relief (without posting a bond where permitted) to prevent misuse or disclosure, in addition to any other remedies.
To align with DMV expectations and improve instruction, we may update curriculum units, timers, validation steps, or user interface elements. Certain features may be modified or retired without advance notice. These changes do not alter the DMV’s 30-hour DE requirement or any DMV conditions for licensure.
Optional add-ons (e.g., expedited certificate reissue, duplicate certificates where permitted, printed mailings) may be offered at additional cost and are governed by supplemental terms displayed at purchase. DMV certificate control rules still apply.
We may suspend or terminate your access (with or without notice) if we reasonably believe you violated these California Terms, the Website Terms, or applicable law; engaged in fraud or misuse; or compromised course integrity. Termination for cause does not entitle you to a refund. We may preserve information and cooperate with lawful investigations or regulator requests.
The California Programs and the Website are provided “as is” and “as available.” To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties (express, implied, statutory). We do not warrant uninterrupted or error-free service or compatibility with every device/configuration.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, GetDriversEd and its affiliates will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages. Our total liability for any claim related to a California Program will not exceed the amount you paid for that program (or any non-waivable statutory minimum, if greater).
To the fullest extent permitted by law, you and GetDriversEd agree to binding arbitration of disputes on an individual basis under the rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA), with the seat of arbitration in Austin, Texas. Class actions and representative proceedings are waived, and jury trial is waived. Either party may seek temporary or preliminary injunctive relief in court to protect rights pending arbitration. Nothing in this section limits any non-waivable rights under California or federal law.
These California Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas (without regard to conflict-of-laws principles), except that California law and DMV rules control where California law expressly governs instruction, completion, testing, certificates, advertising, and compliance for the California Programs. Any litigation permitted outside arbitration must be filed exclusively in courts located in Austin, Texas.
To file a complaint about a DMV-licensed driving school or a traffic violator school in California, use the DMV’s official complaint process (including form OL 620) via the DMV’s Occupational Licensing/Compliance channels. Mailing instructions and online complaint tools are provided by the DMV.
You can also explore DMV’s general customer support/complaint resources online.
We may update these California Terms from time to time. Changes take effect upon posting to the Website (or as otherwise specified). Your continued use of a California Program after changes post constitutes acceptance. For material changes affecting DMV-regulated items, we will follow applicable notice obligations.
We may provide notices via email, Website postings, or account messaging. Your notices to us must be sent to support@getdriversed.com (subject line: “California Programs – Legal Notice”) and are deemed given upon confirmed receipt. We will cooperate with the DMV on regulator notices or information requests as required by law.
Severability: If any provision is found unenforceable, it will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted and the remainder will remain in effect.
Assignment: You may not assign these California Terms without our prior written consent; we may assign in connection with a merger, acquisition, or reorganization.
No Waiver: A failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of future enforcement.
Entire Agreement: These California Terms, together with the Website Terms and any program-specific disclosures on the California Program page, are the entire agreement for the California Programs.
Survival: Provisions that by their nature should survive (including identity/validation, IP restrictions, records, disclaimers, limitations, indemnities, dispute resolution, governing law, and regulatory precedence) survive any expiration or termination.
