Terms & Conditions
Last updated: 20 September 2026
These Terms & Conditions apply to your use of SolEspañol, operated by Why Not Languages ("we", "us", "our").
By creating an account, starting a free trial, purchasing a subscription or using SolEspañol, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.
1. About SolEspañol
SolEspañol is an online GCSE Spanish revision platform designed primarily for students studying the AQA GCSE Spanish specification.
The Service includes personalised revision recommendations, interactive learning activities, progress tracking, vocabulary practice, reading, listening, grammar, translation, speaking activities and optional cultural enrichment features.
SolEspañol is an educational revision tool and does not guarantee any particular examination grade or outcome.
2. Accounts
You must provide accurate information when creating and maintaining your account.
You are responsible for:
- keeping your login details secure;
- not sharing your account with other people;
- keeping your account information reasonably up to date;
- notifying us if you believe your account has been accessed without permission.
Accounts are intended for individual use unless we have expressly agreed otherwise.
We may suspend or restrict an account where reasonably necessary for security, suspected misuse, non-payment or serious breach of these Terms.
3. Students and younger users
SolEspañol is designed primarily for secondary-school students, including users under 18.
Where required by applicable law, a parent or guardian may need to provide or authorise certain information or permissions.
Marketing consent is optional and is not required in order to use SolEspañol.
Our handling of children's personal information is explained further in our Privacy Policy.
4. Acceptable use
You may use SolEspañol for your own personal educational use.
You must not:
- copy, reproduce, redistribute, sell or republish substantial parts of the Service without permission;
- share paid account access with others;
- scrape or systematically extract content or data;
- attempt to reverse-engineer, interfere with, overload or compromise the Service;
- attempt to bypass membership or access controls;
- use the Service for unlawful, abusive or harmful purposes.
5. Free trial
Eligible new members can start a 7-day free trial.
Payment details are required when starting the trial.
Unless you cancel before the trial ends, your chosen paid subscription will begin automatically at the end of the 7-day trial.
Before starting a trial, you will be shown the applicable price and billing frequency.
You can cancel during the trial through the available membership/billing controls. If you cancel before the trial ends, you will not be charged for the subsequent subscription period.
6. Subscription plans and billing
SolEspañol currently offers:
- Monthly membership — £3.99 per month
- Annual membership — £39.99 per year
Subscriptions are recurring and automatically renew until cancelled.
Payments are processed securely by Stripe.
By starting a paid subscription, you authorise Stripe to charge the payment method you provide for recurring subscription payments in accordance with the plan you select.
We do not receive or store your full card details.
7. Cancelling your subscription
You may cancel your subscription using the membership/billing controls made available through SolEspañol and Stripe.
Cancellation stops future automatic renewal.
Unless otherwise required by law, cancelling after a paid billing period has begun normally means:
- your subscription will not renew again; and
- you can continue using the paid Service until the end of the current paid access period.
Cancelling a subscription does not automatically delete your SolEspañol account.
If you also wish to delete your account and associated personal information, you can use the account deletion options or contact us.
8. Refunds and statutory rights
Nothing in these Terms affects your statutory consumer rights.
Where UK consumer law gives you a legal right to cancel, receive a refund or obtain another remedy, those rights continue to apply.
If you believe you have been charged incorrectly or are entitled to a refund, please contact us at abbie@whynotlanguages.co.uk.
Any discretionary refund we provide does not affect your statutory rights.
UK rules for online/distance contracts include cancellation and information requirements, although the exact position can depend on whether what is supplied is legally treated as a service or digital content and on when supply begins.
9. Changes to pricing
We may change subscription prices in the future.
Any price change affecting an existing member will be communicated in advance where required, and will not be applied retrospectively to a period you have already paid for.
Where required by law, we will give appropriate notice before a new price takes effect.
10. Educational content
We aim to keep SolEspañol accurate, useful and aligned with the relevant GCSE Spanish specification.
However:
- specifications and assessment arrangements may change;
- occasional errors may occur;
- not every school teaches topics in the same order;
- personalised recommendations are learning-support tools rather than guarantees of examination performance.
Students remain responsible for checking requirements set by their school, teacher or examination board.
11. Personalised revision
SolEspañol may use information including topics you have studied, activity performance, previous revision and weak areas to generate personalised revision recommendations.
Students can update which topics they have covered.
Personalised recommendations are intended to support revision and should not be treated as a guarantee that every recommended activity is the only material a student needs to study.
12. Culture Zone
Culture Zone is an optional cultural-enrichment part of SolEspañol.
It is separate from the personalised 20-minute Daily Revision system and is designed to help students explore the cultures, places, people, food, music and language of the Spanish-speaking world.
Culture Zone activities do not currently form part of core Daily Revision recommendations or academic progress calculations.
13. Intellectual property
Unless otherwise stated, the text, graphics, learning activities, original exam-style material, audio, software, branding and other original content within SolEspañol are owned by Why Not Languages/SolEspañol or used under appropriate licence.
You may use the content for your own personal study.
You may not reproduce, commercially exploit, redistribute or republish the Service or substantial parts of it without written permission.
Nothing in these Terms grants ownership of the Service or its intellectual property to users.
14. Third-party services
SolEspañol relies on third-party providers for services such as payments, hosting, authentication and email delivery.
We are not responsible for outages or failures outside our reasonable control, although we will take reasonable steps to restore affected functionality.
Use of some third-party services may also be subject to those providers' own terms and privacy policies.
15. Availability of the Service
We aim to keep SolEspañol available and functioning reliably, but we cannot guarantee uninterrupted or error-free access.
We may occasionally:
- carry out maintenance;
- fix bugs;
- update content;
- add, change or remove features;
- temporarily restrict access where necessary for security or technical reasons.
We will try to minimise disruption where reasonably possible.
16. Liability
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability where it would be unlawful to do so, including liability that cannot legally be excluded under consumer law.
Subject to those rights, SolEspañol is provided as an educational revision tool and we do not guarantee:
- a particular examination result;
- uninterrupted availability;
- that every item of content will always be error-free.
We are not responsible for losses that were not reasonably foreseeable when the contract was formed or that arise from misuse of the Service.
17. Ending or suspending access
We may suspend or terminate an account where there is:
- serious or repeated breach of these Terms;
- fraudulent or abusive activity;
- an attempt to compromise the Service or other users;
- non-payment of a valid subscription charge.
Where appropriate, we will try to provide reasonable notice or an opportunity to resolve the issue.
Termination does not remove any statutory rights you may have.
18. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms where necessary, for example because:
- SolEspañol features change;
- pricing or membership arrangements change;
- legal or regulatory requirements change.
Where a change is material, we will take reasonable steps to notify users before it takes effect where appropriate.
19. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales.
If you are a consumer living elsewhere in the UK, you may also benefit from mandatory consumer protections that apply where you live.
Nothing in this section removes any rights you have under applicable consumer law.
