Online Course Terms & Conditions

Effective Date: July 11, 2026

 

Welcome to Basic Firearms Training. These Terms & Conditions govern your purchase and use of any online course offered through our website or learning platform. By purchasing, accessing, or participating in an online course, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms & Conditions.

1. Course Enrollment & Access

Online course enrollment is granted solely to the individual who registers for the course and may not be transferred, shared, assigned, or resold.

 

Each student is responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their account credentials. Sharing login information or allowing another individual to access the course using your account is strictly prohibited.

 

60-Day Enrollment Period

 

Access to the online course is granted for a period of sixty (60) calendar days beginning on the date and time of purchase.

 

Students are encouraged to carefully review the course description, eligibility requirements, and applicable issuing agency or licensing authority requirements prior to completing their purchase.

 

Upon expiration of the sixty-day enrollment period, access to the course, quizzes, examinations, downloadable materials, and course progress within the learning platform will automatically terminate.

 

It is the student's responsibility to complete all required coursework within the allotted enrollment period.

 

Except where required by law or approved in writing by Basic Firearms Training, no extensions will be granted due to personal scheduling conflicts, lack of participation, forgetfulness, or failure to complete the course within the allotted time.

2. Personal Use & Intellectual Property

All online course materials created and provided by Basic Firearms Training, including but not limited to videos, presentations, text, graphics, quizzes, examinations, downloadable materials, certificates, and other instructional content, are the exclusive intellectual property of Basic Firearms Training unless otherwise indicated.

Course materials are provided solely for the personal educational use of the registered student.

 

Students may not reproduce, record, photograph, copy, download, publish, distribute, transmit, modify, sell, license, or otherwise share any portion of the course materials created by Basic Firearms Training without the prior written permission of Basic Firearms Training.

 

Certain courses may include or reference third-party materials, including publicly available YouTube® videos, articles, publications, or other educational resources. Such materials remain the intellectual property of their respective owners and are subject to the copyrights, licenses, and terms of use established by those owners. Basic Firearms Training claims no ownership of third-party content and uses or references such materials solely for educational purposes.

 

Unauthorized reproduction, distribution, or other misuse of course materials created by Basic Firearms Training may result in immediate termination of course access without refund and may subject the individual to applicable civil or criminal remedies.

3. Course Completion & Certificates

Some courses require successful completion of quizzes, examinations, or other course requirements before a Certificate of Completion will be issued.

 

For courses requiring a live-fire qualification, practical examination, or other in-person component, successful completion of the online course alone does not satisfy all course requirements.

 

Certificates of Completion are issued only after all applicable course requirements have been successfully completed.

4. Student Responsibilities

Students agree to:

 

  • Provide accurate and complete registration information.
  • Complete all coursework personally unless otherwise authorized.
  • Comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws.
  • Ensure any information submitted to courts, licensing agencies, employers, or other organizations is truthful and accurate.
  • Maintain the security of their login credentials.

5. No Legal Advice

The information presented in this course is provided for educational purposes only and does not constitute legal advice.

 

Firearms laws and regulations frequently change and may vary by jurisdiction. While Basic Firearms Training strives to provide accurate and current information, no guarantee is made that all information reflects the most recent legal developments.

 

Students are solely responsible for understanding and complying with all applicable federal, state, and local laws. Individuals seeking legal advice should consult a qualified attorney.

6. Course Content Updates

Basic Firearms Training reserves the right to revise, update, modify, or improve course materials at any time to reflect changes in laws, regulations, agency policies, instructional methods, or other business needs.

7. Refunds & Administrative Fee

Because students receive immediate access to proprietary digital educational materials upon purchase, all sales are final. Refunds, credits, or transfers will not be provided except where required by applicable law or at the sole discretion of Basic Firearms Training.

 

If Basic Firearms Training approves a refund, the refund will be subject to a $20.00 administrative processing fee. This fee is intended to offset payment processing charges, merchant transaction fees, and the administrative costs associated with processing the original transaction, issuing the refund, updating business records, and providing related administrative services.

 

The administrative processing fee applies to all approved refunds, including, but not limited to, duplicate purchases and the purchase of an incorrect course.

8. Disclaimer of Liability

The information provided within Basic Firearms Training's online courses is intended solely for educational purposes. Course content may include, but is not limited to, firearms safety, use of force, security officer training, chemical agents, applicable laws and regulations, industry best practices, and other related topics.

 

Completion of an online course does not constitute legal advice, nor does it guarantee permit issuance, certification, employment, licensing, agency approval, legal compliance, or any other specific outcome. Students remain solely responsible for understanding and complying with all applicable federal, state, and local laws, regulations, employer policies, licensing requirements, and agency-specific requirements.

 

Where applicable, completion of an online course does not substitute for any required live-fire qualification, practical examination, skills demonstration, agency approval, licensing requirement, or other in-person training mandated by law or regulation.

 

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Basic Firearms Training, its owners, instructors, employees, contractors, and representatives shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages arising from or related to a student's use, misuse, interpretation, or application of information presented within any course.

Basic Firearms Training reserves the right to suspend or terminate course access without refund if a student:

 

  • Shares course access or login credentials.
  • Copies or distributes course materials without authorization.
  • Engages in fraudulent activity.
  • Violates these Terms & Conditions.
  • Misuses the learning platform.

10. Privacy

Personal information collected during registration and course participation is handled in accordance with the Basic Firearms Training Privacy Policy.

These Terms & Conditions shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California without regard to its conflict of law principles.
