Welcome to Scholarship Guru. These Terms of Service constitute a legally binding agreement made between you, whether personally or on behalf of an entity, and Scholarship Guru concerning your access to and use of our platform. By accessing our website, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by all of these terms. If you do not agree with all of these Terms of Service, you are expressly prohibited from using the platform and must discontinue use immediately. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to make changes or modifications to these Terms at any time. Your continued use of the platform after any such changes constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms.

Scholarship Guru is an independent, data-driven educational aggregator designed to centralize global funding opportunities. We are strictly a search engine and informational directory; we do not directly fund, manage, award, or influence any scholarships, grants, or fellowships listed on our site. While we utilize advanced data-processing and rigorous human verification to ensure our database is as accurate as possible, the “Final Source of Truth” is always the official provider’s website. We do not guarantee the absolute accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of the listings. Scholarship Guru accepts no liability and is not responsible for any financial loss, emotional distress, rejected applications, or missed deadlines resulting from reliance on the information displayed on our platform. It is solely your responsibility to verify all eligibility criteria and deadlines directly with the official funding institutions before applying.

The Scholarship Guru platform is the product of extensive engineering, data architecture, and proprietary design. The unique structure of our database, including our custom taxonomies, dependent dropdown filtering logic, visual templates, and overall User Interface/User Experience (UI/UX), are the exclusive intellectual property of Scholarship Guru. Users and third-party entities are strictly prohibited from using automated systems, bots, spiders, or scraping software to extract data from Scholarship Guru for commercial purposes, republication, or the creation of derivative databases. You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access and use the site strictly for your personal, non-commercial pursuit of educational funding. Any unauthorized reproduction or data mining will result in immediate IP bans and potential legal action under Irish and EU intellectual property laws.

We built Scholarship Guru to democratize education, and we expect our users to interact with the platform respectfully and lawfully. You agree not to use the platform to bypass official application systems, submit fraudulent information to funding providers, or transmit any malicious code, viruses, or disruptive software that could harm our servers. You may not attempt to gain unauthorized access to any portion or feature of the site, or any other systems or networks connected to the site, by hacking, password “mining,” or any other illegitimate means. We reserve the right to terminate or restrict access to our platform for any user who violates these principles of conduct.

To connect you with funding, our platform naturally contains hundreds of direct hyperlinks to third-party government portals, university websites, and NGO application systems. These external links are provided strictly for your convenience. Scholarship Guru has no control over, and assumes no responsibility for, the content, privacy policies, application portals, or practices of any third-party websites. The inclusion of any link does not imply endorsement by Scholarship Guru of the external site or its operators. You acknowledge and agree that we shall not be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage or loss caused by your interaction with these external platforms.

Because Scholarship Guru is founded and operated out of Galway, these Terms of Service and your use of the platform are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Ireland, without regard to its conflict of law principles. Any legal action or proceeding related to your access to or use of the platform shall be instituted exclusively in the courts of the Republic of Ireland. By using this platform, you consent to the jurisdiction of these courts and waive any objections to such jurisdiction or venue.

If you have any questions, concerns, or require clarification regarding these Terms of Service, or if you wish to report a technical issue or data discrepancy on our platform, please contact us directly. We are committed to maintaining a transparent and highly responsive environment for our global community of users.
