Terms of Service

Effective Date: January 1st, 2026 Last Updated: December 15th, 2025

Welcome to the Global Youth Congress. These General Terms of Service ("Terms") constitute a binding legal agreement between you and Global Learning LLC, doing business as Global Youth Congress ("GYC," "we," "us," or "our"). By registering for, accessing, or participating in any GYC program—whether online, in-person, or travel-based—you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms.

1. Universal Applicability & Incorporated Policies

These Terms apply globally to all GYC experiences. By agreeing to these Terms, you also explicitly agree to the following core policies, which are incorporated herein by reference and govern your behavior and data rights across all our platforms:

  • Global Privacy Policy: Governs how we collect, use, and protect your personal data.

  • Global Student Code of Conduct: Outlines the mandatory behavioral expectations, ethical standards, and zero-tolerance policies for all participants.

2. Program-Specific Agreements & Local Jurisdictions

Due to the diverse nature of our offerings—ranging from digital courses to international travel expeditions—specific terms will vary by program type and location.

  • Supplemental Terms: Each specific program (e.g., Global MUN Online, World AI Challenge Live, International Forum in Orlando) may have its own Supplemental Terms regarding refunds, cancellations, logistics, and liability. In the event of a conflict between these General Terms and the Program-Specific Supplemental Terms, the Program-Specific Terms shall control for that specific experience.

  • Local Jurisdiction: While GYC is a US-based entity, in-person programs are subject to the local laws and regulations of the host country or state. Participants agree to comply with all local laws applicable to the program location.

3. Third-Party & Partner Terms

Many GYC programs are delivered in collaboration with world-class partners, universities, and venues (e.g., Full Sail University, Walt Disney World®, Universal Orlando Resort™, or local hosting institutions).

  • Partner Compliance: By participating in a program involving a third-party partner, you agree to abide by the codes of conduct, safety regulations, and terms of service of that partner institution.

  • Liability: GYC is not responsible for the acts, omissions, or independent policies of these third-party partners. Failure to comply with a partner's rules (e.g., safety violations at a theme park or university campus) may result in immediate removal from the program without refund.

4. Intellectual Property

All content, curriculum, methodologies, and materials provided by GYC are the exclusive property of Global Learning LLC or its licensors. You are granted a limited, non-exclusive license to use these materials solely for your personal educational participation in the program. You may not reproduce, distribute, or sell GYC materials without express written permission.

5. Modifications to Terms

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. Material changes will be communicated to you via email or a prominent notice on our platform. Continued participation in GYC programs after such changes constitutes acceptance of the new Terms.

6. Governing Law

These General Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to its conflict of law principles.
