Terms of Service

By using this website or taking part in any DYEN application, program, class, event, internship, volunteer activity, sponsorship, donation, or community activity, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the website or take part in the service.

DYEN provides skills training, mentorship, admissions processing, student support, events, community programs, referrals, internships, partnership activities, and related services. Our main physical programs are held in Warri, Delta State, unless a specific program page says otherwise.

Some programs have age, location, interview, device, attendance, guarantor, prior knowledge, payment, or other eligibility requirements. You must meet the requirements stated for the specific program or service you apply for.

If you are a minor, DYEN may require parent, guardian, guarantor, or emergency contact involvement before you can participate.

• Provide accurate information in applications, interviews, payments, referrals, forms, and communications.
• Use the website and forms only for lawful purposes.
• Do not submit false, misleading, abusive, harmful, or fraudulent information.
• Do not attempt to disrupt, copy, scrape, attack, overload, reverse engineer, or gain unauthorised access to our website, databases, accounts, or systems.
• Do not impersonate another person or use another person's contact details without permission.
• Do not upload malware, spam, or content that infringes another person's rights.

• Admission, scholarship, interview, class placement, internship, volunteer, and alumni decisions are at DYEN's discretion.
• Meeting an eligibility requirement or submitting an application does not guarantee admission, scholarship, funding, internship, certification, employment, or any income outcome.
• Applicants and students must follow the program schedule, attendance rules, assessment requirements, code of conduct, safety instructions, and any instructions shared for a specific program.
• DYEN may reschedule, suspend, withdraw, or modify a program, interview, class, event, internship, or activity where necessary for operational, safety, funding, compliance, or other valid reasons.
• Students may be removed from a program for misconduct, fraud, repeated absence, harassment, unsafe behaviour, breach of rules, or any conduct that affects other students, staff, partners, volunteers, or DYEN property.

• Where a fee, acceptance item, merchandise payment, donation, sponsorship, or other payment applies, the amount, payment deadline, and payment method will be stated before payment.
• You are responsible for confirming payment details before paying. DYEN will not be responsible for payments sent to unauthorised accounts or persons.
• Unless a specific written refund term applies to the transaction, payments already used for program administration, reserved items, third-party fees, or confirmed services may not be refundable.
• DYEN may correct pricing or payment errors, reject suspicious transactions, and request proof of payment where necessary.

Certificates, completion records, internship recommendations, referrals, showcases, or alumni support may depend on attendance, participation, assessments, conduct, payment status where applicable, and completion of program requirements.

DYEN does not guarantee a job, contract, client, business income, admission into another institution, visa, sponsorship, or any specific financial result.

• Text, photos, videos, designs, logos, documents, curriculum materials, forms, website layouts, and other content on this website belong to DYEN or its licensors unless stated otherwise.
• You may view and share public DYEN pages for personal, educational, or informational purposes.
• You may not copy, sell, publish, modify, remove branding from, or reuse DYEN materials for commercial purposes without written permission.
• If you submit testimonials, photos, videos, project work, feedback, or similar content to DYEN, you allow us to use it for program administration, reporting, promotion, and community storytelling, unless you tell us in writing that you do not consent.

The website or our communications may link to third-party platforms such as payment providers, social media platforms, email, SMS, WhatsApp, analytics tools, partner websites, or external learning tools. DYEN is not responsible for third-party websites, policies, fees, downtime, errors, or content.

Our collection and use of personal data is explained in our Privacy Policy. By using our services, you acknowledge that DYEN may process personal data for applications, programs, communications, payments, safety, reporting, and other lawful purposes.

We try to keep the website and services available, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted access. We may update, suspend, remove, or restrict any part of the website, forms, content, program, admission process, event, or service where necessary.

To the fullest extent allowed by Nigerian law, DYEN will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive losses arising from your use of the website or services. This includes loss of profit, data, opportunity, goodwill, or expected income.

Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded under applicable Nigerian law.

You agree to hold DYEN, its staff, volunteers, facilitators, partners, sponsors, and service providers harmless from claims, losses, damages, costs, or expenses that arise from your breach of these terms, misuse of the website, false information, misconduct, unlawful activity, or infringement of another person's rights.

These terms are governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. We expect most issues to be handled first by contacting DYEN directly. If a dispute cannot be resolved informally, it may be handled through the appropriate courts or dispute-resolution process in Nigeria.

Questions about these terms should be sent to [email protected].

We may update these terms when our services, program rules, website, payment process, or legal requirements change. The latest version will be posted on this page with the updated date.
