By checking ‘I Agree,’ submitting the form, completing registration, logging into the course platform, joining a student group, or actually participating in any course, I acknowledge that I have read, understood, and agreed to comply with this Agreement.

The actual service provider shall be as stated on the applicable registration page, payment recipient, or course announcement.
1. Purpose of This Agreement
To maintain a positive learning environment for Bai Yin Qigong and to protect the rights and interests of Masters, Instructors, students, staff members, volunteers, course content, the brand, and related interests, all students shall comply with this Agreement.
I understand that Bai Yin Qigong is a complete, systematic, and progressive health cultivation learning system. To prevent the dissemination of incorrect information, learning confusion, deterioration of course quality, infringement of intellectual property rights, disclosure of students’ personal data, or adverse effects on the rights and interests of other students, I agree to comply with the following provisions.

6. I shall participate in courses in accordance with course announcements, Instructor instructions, and administrative notices, and shall not interfere with the progress of courses, the order of live broadcasts, the rhythm of group practice sessions, or the learning of other students.
7. If I am unable to attend a class, require leave, make-up classes, postponement, or transfer to another class due to personal reasons, I shall follow the current course announcements and the Bai Yin Qigong administrative procedures.
8. My course entitlements, account, enrollment quota, discounts, gifts, or membership benefits shall not be transferred, sold, rented, exchanged, or provided for use by others without the prior written consent of Bai Yin Qigong.
3. Prohibition of Audio Recording, Video Recording, Photography, Screenshots, and Redistribution
I agree that:
1. Without the prior written consent of Bai Yin Qigong, I shall not make audio recordings, video recordings, screenshots, photographs, re-photograph materials, or otherwise record any courses, group practice sessions, revision sessions, skill assessments, assisted practice sessions, live broadcasts, online meetings, in-person activities, or student groups.
2. I shall not download, copy, redistribute, repost, publicly play, share, sell, adapt, or provide any course content, teaching materials, videos, audio recordings, handouts, e-books, live broadcasts, replay recordings, group messages, assignment content, or student information.
3. I shall not upload course content, group content, or student information to YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, LINE, WeChat groups, Telegram, Google Drive, Dropbox, cloud storage, forums, blogs, websites, or any public or private platform.
4. I shall not upload any course videos, audio recordings, transcripts, teaching materials, handouts, group content, or student information of the Organization to any AI tools, cloud platforms, translation tools, transcription tools, editing tools, or third-party systems for summarization, rewriting, training, analysis, reproduction, conversion, publication, or commercial use. This restriction shall not apply where prior written consent has been obtained from the Organization and solely within the necessary scope for my own learning assistance.
5. I shall not use photographs, videos, voices, messages, or conversations of Masters, Instructors, or students for ridicule, criticism, commercial promotion, derivative works, public postings, or any other unauthorized purpose.

7. Bai Yin Qigong reserves the right, in accordance with the law, to require removal, takedown, cessation of use, compensation for damages, and to pursue legal liability.
4. Protection of Intellectual Property Rights and Course Content
I understand and agree that:
1. All course content, technique names, teaching systems, teaching materials, audio-visual materials, music, images, handouts, e-books, live broadcasts, replay recordings, text, tables, community content, brand names, trademarks, slogans, designs, website content, and related materials of Bai Yin Qigong are owned by Bai Yin Qigong or its lawful licensors.

5. Prohibition of Unauthorized Teaching, Leading Practice, and Correcting Movements
I understand that qigong learning has its own stages, boundaries, safety principles, and lineage system under the Master. Merely having seen, learned, or practiced the techniques does not qualify a person to teach others.
I agree that:

4. I shall not proactively correct another person’s movements during group practice sessions, revision sessions, student groups, private gatherings, or personal communications, particularly advanced movements, special movements, or movements that I have not yet learned or whose principles and proper scope I do not yet understand.
5. I shall not, under the pretext of ‘sharing experiences,’ ‘helping fellow students,’ ‘my previous Master said so,’ or ‘I have practiced for many years,’ engage in unauthorized teaching, leading practice, correcting movements, or explaining the principles of the techniques.
6. The primary purpose of group practice sessions is stable practice, not teaching techniques, explaining techniques, discussing theoretical principles, correcting movements, or pursuing extraordinary reactions.
7. If my unauthorized teaching, incorrect practice leadership, incorrect correction of movements, or inappropriate sharing causes injury, misunderstanding, health risks, learning confusion, or damage to the rights and interests of Bai Yin Qigong, I shall bear the relevant legal liability and responsibility for compensation.
6. Student Groups and Community Guidelines
I agree that, in LINE groups, WeChat groups, Facebook groups, course platforms, live broadcast comments, group practice sessions, activity venues, private messages, or any student communication space, I shall comply with the following provisions:

9. I shall not impersonate another person, impersonate official personnel or Instructors, forge notices, establish unofficial official groups, or mislead students.
10. I shall not use student groups or course relationships for harassment, sexual harassment, bullying, fraud, lending, fundraising, investment solicitation, or improper interpersonal pressure.
11. If I receive suspicious messages, private sales promotions, monetary solicitations, therapeutic claims, invitations to other groups, or suspected fraudulent communications, I shall immediately notify official Bai Yin Qigong personnel.
7. Protection of Personal Data, Privacy, and Reputation
I understand and agree that:
