Terms Of Service
Terms and Conditions
Welcome to Scrimba! Please carefully read these Terms and Conditions before accessing or using our site (https://scrimba.com/), operated by Scrimba AS (the " Platform"). Violations of these Terms and Conditions may result in immediate termination of your access to the Platform.
By accessing or using the Platform, you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions. Please note that some of these provisions apply to all users, regardless of whether you have a paid Subscription. If you do not agree to these Terms and Conditions, you may not use the Platform.
The rights and protections set out in these Terms and Conditions apply to all users including businesses purchasing team seat access to the platform. Separate terms apply only to custom content licensing, custom pricing arrangements, or enterprise agreements negotiated outside the standard platform terms.
Registration
To use the Platform, you must create a user account providing required data or information in a complete and truthful manner.
You are responsible for keeping your login credentials confidential and safe and to not make your account available for anyone else. You must immediately notify us if you suspect that your login credentials, including usernames or passwords, have been stolen, compromised, or accessed without authorization.
You can delete your account at any time by going to your User settings page and clicking on “Delete account”, or by contacting us.
To learn more about the use of personal data, please read our privacy policy.
Subscription
By subscribing to our pro plan, you gain access to all courses and additional functionality until you choose to cancel your subscription (the " Subscription"). Your Subscription provides access for the period you selected at purchase and will automatically renew for the same period unless you cancel. For example, if you purchase a one-year Subscription, it will automatically renew for another year.
Prices
Unless otherwise agreed, prices are in US Dollars (USD). We strive to provide accurate and up-to-date information on our website, but errors may occur.
Scrimba reserves the right to change Subscription prices at any time. We will provide at least 14 days' notice and price changes will only apply from your next renewal period.
Price changes will be announced on the platform and communicated via email to the contact details you provided during registration.
If you have subscribed through an introductory offer or discounted rate as part of a promotion or similar campaign, Scrimba reserves the right to adjust the price to the standard rate once the promotional period ends.
If you subscribe with a discount, you will keep this rate as long as your Subscription remains active. Unsubscribing forfeits the discount, and resubscribing will be at the current rate without the original discount.
Right of withdrawal
If you are a consumer, you have the right to withdraw from this contract within 7 days without giving any reason. The withdrawal period will expire after 7 days from the day of the conclusion of the contract.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, you must inform us of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can contact us at hello@scrimba.com.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
If you withdraw from this contract, we shall reimburse to you all payments received from you, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract. We will carry out such reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
Termination
You can cancel your Subscription at any time before it renews. You can manage your subscription by cancelling or updating your billing information at any time on your User settings page.
User responsibilities
You are solely responsible for your account and all content published from it. Scrimba is not liable for any damages or losses resulting from your use of the Platform, including cases where users inadvertently disclose private information in their screencasts or scrims. It is your responsibility to protect your personal information and avoid sharing sensitive details.
The following activities are strictly prohibited:
- Sharing links to viruses or harmful software routines.
- Uploading or linking to illegal, pornographic, or offensive content.
- Posting content containing hate speech, harassment, or discriminatory language.
- Engaging in activities that violate others' rights or promote violence or inappropriate behaviour.
- To modify, adapt, distribute, reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, license, sublicense, decompile, disassemble, reverse engineer any part of the Platform and its source code.
Scrimba reserves the right to remove users or ban them from the Platform and its communication channels if their behaviour is deemed inappropriate or violates community guidelines.
In the event of a breach, or suspected breach, of these Terms and Conditions, Scrimba reserves the right to terminate your Subscription with immediate effect. In such cases, Scrimba will send you notification via email to the address you provided during registration. Scrimba may also refuse to allow you to create a new Subscription.
Intellectual Property Rights and third-party rights
Scrimba and parties with whom Scrimba has specific agreements own all intellectual property rights on the Platform.
By using the Platform, you do not acquire any ownership or licence to any intellectual property rights in the service or content. Trademarks, logos, and other similar signs or symbols displayed on the Platform or as part of the Subscription service belong to Scrimba.
Scrimba retains full ownership of all courses, scrims, and related materials created by Scrimba staff, contractors, or other third parties engaged by Scrimba. Any content produced under such agreements is owned exclusively by Scrimba.
All screencasts or "scrims" created by community members are licensed under the MIT licence. This licence allows others to freely use, fork, and build upon your contributions.

Liability
Scrimba strives to deliver the Platform and the Subscription in a professional manner at all times. However, Scrimba may from time to time need to perform updates and maintenance for security, technical, or operational reasons. During these periods, the Platform may be unavailable.
Scrimba provides no warranty that information provided by Scrimba or by third parties on the platform is accurate, complete, or up to date at all times.
The Platform may contain links to third-party websites. Scrimba disclaims all responsibility for content on or associated with third-party websites. We encourage you to carefully review the terms and conditions and privacy policies of all websites you visit.
Complaints regarding errors, defects, or delays in the Subscription should be submitted to us as soon as possible. Scrimba is only liable for compensation that you as a consumer is entitled to under the Norwegian Digital Services and Content Act (digitalytelsesloven).
Changes to products and services
Scrimba reserves the right to modify or discontinue the products, services, and combinations of products and services offered as part of the Subscription. Changes may occur due to unforeseen events, loss or modification of content rights, market developments, or product improvements.
If changes negatively impact you in a material way, we will send you written notice via email to the contact details you provided during registration, and you may cancel your Subscription. Any cancellation must be submitted within 30 days of receiving notice of the changes or within 30 days of the change taking effect. You will then receive a refund for the remaining portion of your Subscription, calculated from the date you cancelled.
Changes to terms and conditions
Scrimba reserves the right to change these Terms and Conditions at any time at our discretion, for example due to legal requirements, agreements with third parties necessary to deliver the Platform and Subscription, or changes to the Platform itself.
If the Terms and Conditions are changed materially or to your disadvantage, we will notify you at least 14 days before the amendments take effect by sending updated Terms and Conditions to the email address you provided during registration. If we make changes that are to your disadvantage, you may cancel your Subscription with the cancellation taking effect on the date the changes come into force.
