3. Service Description
Chatri Academy offers structured financial education programmes designed for adults aged 40 and above. Our programmes are educational in nature and do not constitute regulated financial advice, investment advice, legal advice, or tax advice.

We make reasonable efforts to deliver programmes as described but reserve the right to make minor adjustments to content, scheduling, or delivery format where circumstances require, with reasonable notice to enrolled learners.
4. Educational Nature of Programmes
Our programmes are designed to build financial literacy and understanding. They are not a substitute for personalised regulated financial advice. Nothing taught in our programmes should be interpreted as a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any financial product or security.
Learners are solely responsible for any financial decisions they make following or during a programme. Chatri Academy, its faculty, and its staff accept no liability for financial decisions made by learners.
5. Enrolment and Confirmation
Enrolment is confirmed upon receipt of full programme payment and a written enrolment confirmation from Chatri Academy. All prospective learners are expected to complete a pre-enrolment consultation before their place is confirmed.

10. Disclaimers
Our programmes are provided for educational purposes. We make no representation that completing a programme will result in any specific financial outcome. All financial situations differ, and the educational content we provide may not be appropriate for every learner's circumstances.
The website is provided on an "as available" basis. We do not warrant that the site will be error-free or uninterrupted.
11. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by Thai law, Chatri Academy's liability to any learner shall not exceed the programme fee paid by that learner. We are not liable for indirect, consequential, or financial losses arising from decisions made based on programme content.

Learners may withdraw from a programme at any time, subject to the refund policy in Section 6.
