Terms of Use

1. Accounts and families

Before signing in, you must actively accept these terms and acknowledge the Privacy Policy. We record the document versions and acceptance time. This is not consent to advertising, public rankings, or unrelated use of your data.

The homepage, sign-in page, and policies are available without an account. Lessons, practice, challenges, rankings, and saved progress require Google sign-in. Account use must meet the requirements that apply to your age and location. A parent or guardian must be involved where the law requires it. Exorvio does not currently offer verified parental-consent registration; where that consent is required, do not create a child account or submit personal information until the required process is available. Contact the operator first. Checking the sign-in box or using a Google account is not verified parental consent.

Use an account you are entitled to use. Keep access secure, sign out on shared devices, and report suspected misuse. Choose a nickname and avoid including your school, address, phone number, or other identifying information in names, code, answers, and notes.

2. What the service provides

Exorvio provides lessons, exercises, feedback, progress tracking, and optional competition. It is an educational practice tool. Completion, XP, and rankings are not accredited qualifications, professional certifications, or promises of employment, exam results, or security expertise.

Content and automated feedback can contain mistakes. Test and review anything you plan to use in real projects. Features can be unavailable during maintenance or outages. A learner code runner is not currently enabled; the interface will tell you when execution is unavailable rather than treating unchecked code as correct.

Exorvio currently does not charge learners or require payment details. Any future paid service will need separate, clear pricing and your explicit agreement before charging you.

3. Acceptable use

Use the service lawfully and respect other people’s privacy and rights. Do not impersonate others, harass people, submit unlawful material, copy content you have no right to submit, access another learner’s private records, or interfere with the service.

Do not exploit the website or runner, evade resource limits, distribute malware, mine cryptocurrency, or send spam. Do not automate submissions to fabricate progress, replay rewards, or manipulate XP or rankings. Good-faith security reports are welcome at the contact address; stop testing when you encounter private data and report the issue without copying or exposing it.

4. Cybersecurity and CTF practice

Exorvio’s CTF exercises use supplied, self-contained evidence for learning. Permission to work on those artifacts does not authorize testing Exorvio’s infrastructure or any other website, account, network, device, or person.

Only test systems that you own or have explicit permission from their owner to test, and stay within the agreed scope. Do not use lessons for unauthorized access, credential theft, interception, disruption, or disclosure of other people’s information. Real systems can behave differently from a training exercise.

5. Your code and learning materials

You retain your rights in code and other material you submit. You give Exorvio permission to store and process it only as needed to deliver, secure, and support the features you request, as explained in the Privacy Policy. Private submissions are not published as community solutions. Do not submit confidential business information, credentials, or other people’s personal data.

You may use Exorvio’s examples and learning materials for your own learning and practice. Do not redistribute the course library or claim it as your own without permission. Third-party tools and materials remain subject to their applicable licences. Contact the operator with a specific rights complaint, identifying the material and your basis for the complaint; do not include unnecessary sensitive information.

6. Progress and optional rankings

New accounts start with leaderboard participation turned off. You can join or leave in Preferences. Joining makes your chosen display name and displayed learning statistics visible to other learners. Existing accounts retain their previous setting until changed. Leaving competition does not remove earned progress or XP.

XP and ranks have no monetary value. Invalid or duplicated rewards may be corrected. If you think a correction is wrong, contact the operator so it can be reviewed.

7. Account restrictions, changes, and leaving

We may restrict access when reasonably necessary to address a material breach of these terms, a security issue, or a legal requirement. Where practical and lawful, we will explain the reason and give you an opportunity to resolve the issue. Urgent protection of users or the service may require immediate action. You can contact the operator to request a review.

You may stop using the service at any time. Contact the operator to request an account-data copy or deletion; verification of account control may be needed. Retention and privacy rights are explained in the Privacy Policy.

We will explain material changes to these terms and ask you to accept a new version before continuing account use. Changes do not retroactively remove accrued rights. Where practical, we will give notice of a service closure or change that materially affects access to saved progress.

8. Responsibility and your rights

We aim to provide the service with reasonable care and to correct reported problems. We do not promise uninterrupted access, error-free content, or a particular learning outcome. Keep your own copy of work that matters to you.

These terms do not exclude responsibility for fraud, deliberate misconduct, injury or death caused by negligence, or other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded. They do not remove mandatory consumer or privacy rights, restrict your right to complain to a regulator, or prevent you from bringing a legal claim. They do not require binding arbitration or waive collective-action rights.

If a problem arises, please contact the operator with the relevant details so we can try to resolve it. You are not required to give up any applicable legal remedy to use that support process. If a provision is unenforceable, that does not remove the remaining lawful provisions or your mandatory rights.
