5. Certificate Validity

All course content, including text, quizzes, exam questions, diagrams, and audio, is protected by copyright. You may not reproduce, distribute, or share course materials or exam questions without written permission.

8. Limitation of Liability

This course is provided for educational purposes.

Laser safety is ultimately the responsibility of the individual operator, LSO, and responsible person at each event.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms, including cases of academic dishonesty, abuse, or unauthorised access. You may request deletion of your account at any time by contacting apps@zone.net.au.
