Defines 'non-commercial' use for purposes of the Licensed Educational Content license, clarifying that the characterization depends on the use rather than the user, and providing examples to delineate permissible from impermissible commercial activity.

Clause A mandates that anyone distributing the content must prominently state it is available for free, which directly contradicts the allowance in Clause B for uses that involve charging users for access (defined as 'not non-commercial').
"If you distribute, publicly perform or display, transmit, publish, or otherwise make available any Licensed Educational Content or any derivative works thereof, you must also provide the following notice prominently along with such Licensed Educational Content or derivative work thereof: “All Khan Academy content is available for free at www.khanacademy.org” and adhere to the [Khan Academy brand guidelines](https://support.khanacademy.org/hc/en-us/articles/202263034-What-is-Khan-Academy-s-Trademark-and-Brand-Usage-Policy)."
" ● Use Characterization . Whether a particular use of the Licensed Educational Content is “non-commercial” depends on the use, not the user. Thus, a use of the Licensed Educational Content that does not require that users pay fees and that does not provide an entity with a commercial advantage is “non-commercial,” even if this use is by a commercial entity. Conversely, any use that involves charging users in connection with their access to the Licensed Educational Content is not “non-commercial,” even if this use is by a non-profit entity. As an example, a for-profit corporation’s use of the Licensed Educational Content for internal professional development or training of employees is permitted, so long as the corporation charges no fees, directly or indirectly, for such use. Conversely, as another example, a non-profit entity’s use of the Licensed Educational Content in connection with a fee-based training or educational program is NOT “non-commercial” and is not permitted. 8.6. Crediting Khan Academy . If you distribute, publicly perform or display, transmit, publish, or otherwise make available any Licensed Educational Content or any derivative works thereof, you must also provide the following notice prominently along with such Licensed Educational Content or derivative work thereof: “All Khan Academy content is available for free at www.khanacademy.org” and adhere to the Khan Academy brand guidelines ."

AI-Enabled Features enable Users to interact with a “large language model” (commonly referred to as an “ LLM ”), an AI tool developed and maintained by one or more third-party LLM developers. While AI-Enabled Features place some constraints on use of the underlying model, such constraints are still, and will continue to be, in development and cannot be relied upon to screen User queries or filter responses that are returned to users. The AI-Enabled Features are not intended to be used to process proprietary or personally identifiable information. YOU ARE ADVISED NOT TO (AND YOU MUST INSTRUCT YOUR AUTHORIZED USERS NOT TO) INCLUDE ANY PROPRIETARY OR PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION IN INPUTS SUBMITTED TO ANY AI-ENABLED FEATURE. "

"The right to access and use the Services is not granted in jurisdictions, if any, where it may be prohibited, or where your use would render Khan Academy in violation of any applicable laws or regulations, including without limitation, Applicable Privacy Law. 4.2. Location of Data Processing . Khan Academy operates the Services in the United States. If you access our Services from outside the United States, you acknowledge and agree that your information, including your personal information and user-generated content, will be collected, transferred, stored, and processed in the United States, where data protection laws may differ from those in your jurisdiction. This transfer is necessary to provide the Services to you in accordance with our Terms of Service. 4.3. Additional Consumer Rights May Apply . If you habitually reside outside the United States of America, you may have additional or different rights under applicable laws. For example, if you habitually reside in the European Union, the United Kingdom, or Australia, mandatory statutory consumer protection regulations in your country of residence may contain protections that are more beneficial for you. Where this is the case, statutory protections provided to you under the applicable laws of your jurisdiction of habitual residence shall apply to you, irrespective of the choice of California law in our Terms or any conflicting provision of these Terms. Specifically, you may have additional or different rights under local law regarding resolution of Disputes (as defined in Section 18 below). "

In the event that any Dispute cannot be resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with this Section 18.4 (Dispute Resolution and Arbitration), you agree that such Dispute will be filed only in the state or federal courts in and for Santa Clara County, California, and each of you and Khan Academy hereby consent and submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of such courts for the purpose of litigating any such action. Notwithstanding this, Khan Academy shall still be allowed to apply for injunctive or other equitable relief to protect or enforce its intellectual property rights in any court of competent jurisdiction. 18.5. Severability . If any provision of the Terms or any Guidelines is held to be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision will be limited or eliminated from the Terms to the minimum extent necessary and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. 18.6.

Specifically, you may have additional or different rights under local law regarding resolution of Disputes (as defined in Section 18 below). You may have a right to file a Dispute before the competent court of your place of habitual residence or through a competent alternative dispute resolution mechanism such as the European Union’s [Online Dispute Resolution Platform](https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/main/?event=main.home2.show) or any mechanism it may be replaced by in the future. To the extent required by applicable law, the binding arbitration clause of our Terms will not apply and any proceeding to enforce these Terms against you as a consumer must be brought in the courts of the jurisdiction in your habitual residence. In addition, contractual limitations of liability may be disregarded under applicable consumer rights laws in some jurisdictions, including in the European Union. "

"18.4.4. Class Action Waiver. Any proceedings to resolve or litigate any Dispute in any forum will be conducted solely on an individual basis. Neither you nor Khan Academy will seek to have any Dispute heard as a class action or in any other proceeding in which either party acts or proposes to act in a representative capacity. You may file a Dispute only on your own behalf and cannot seek relief that would affect other Users. If there is a final judicial determination that any particular Dispute cannot be arbitrated in accordance with the limitations of this Section 18.4 (Dispute Resolution and Arbitration), then only that Dispute may be severed and brought in court. All other Disputes remain subject to this Section 18.4 (Dispute Resolution and Arbitration)."

AI-generated interpretation, not legal advice.
"3.3.1. Identification of School Accounts. Students and School Personnel may have personal accounts, in addition to accounts established for use in the classroom and associated with the Institution's use of the Services (" **School Accounts**"). If the Institution has a separate written service agreement with Khan Academy that includes rostering services for your Institution, accounts provided for classroom use will be designated as School Accounts. In other cases, in order for accounts established for use in the classroom to be designated as “School Accounts," the accounts must be (1) created by School Personnel (for example, when a teacher creates the user name, login and password to establish School Accounts, or when the teacher rosters a class using Google Classroom, Clever, ClassLink, or similar Integrated Service, as defined in Section 10.1 (Integrated Service) below (to the extent we support use of such Integrated Service)), or (2) created by a Student User at the direction of School Personnel, in each case, using a school email address and associated with a school’s class on the Service. User accounts created with a personal email address will not be considered School Accounts, and will be administered as personal accounts. If you have questions about how to create School Accounts that are associated with a school's class on the Service, please [contact our customer support team](https://support.khanacademy.org/hc/en-us/requests/new)."
Defines 'School Accounts' as accounts established for classroom use and associated with an Institution's use of the Services, and specifies the conditions under which accounts are designated as School Accounts — operative definition establishing the institutional account category.

Cross-clause notes
Two verified clauses intersect on the same subject matter: the Privacy Policy addresses how long content is retained, and the Terms of Service, § 6.2 addresses use of content in connection with model training or service improvement. Both clauses are in force at the same time — read them together.
The Terms of Service, § 10.3.2 describes rights the platform takes in user content, and the Privacy Policy, Privacy Policy › “Transparency and your choice” describes disclosure of data to third parties or subprocessors. Both clauses are in force at the same time — read them together.
Verified retention clauses point in different directions: the Privacy Policy describes broad or open-ended retention, while the Privacy Policy describes deletion or erasure. Which clause controls in a given situation is not resolved by the documents' text alone — this is surfaced as an ambiguity, treated as Caution.
Automated cross-reference against the published rubric — not legal advice.
