Terms & Conditions

1. Scope and Conclusion of Contract

These Terms & Conditions apply to all users and participants of Krav Maga Online (KMO). By registering on our platform and completing the booking process for a certification course, you accept these Terms & Conditions. The contract is concluded when your booking is confirmed and your account access is activated.

2. Services & Interactive Certification Process

KMO provides participants with comprehensive online instructional videos demonstrating and explaining the required self-defense techniques, tactics, instructional methodology, and safety protocols required for instructor certification.

Participants study and practice these techniques systematically. At the end of each module, the participant records and uploads a homework video to the platform. Our instructor team reviews and evaluates each video submission and provides individual, detailed video feedback. In exceptional cases, feedback may be communicated through alternative channels (such as email, telephone, or messaging services).

Once a homework assignment is evaluated and marked as passed, the subsequent course module is unlocked. When all required homework submissions and final examinations have been successfully completed and approved, the participant receives an official Krav Maga Online Certificate.

3. Participation Requirements for Instructor Certifications

To enroll in and successfully complete an instructor certification program, participants must fulfill the following criteria:

• Minimum age of 25 years
• Clean criminal record (no criminal convictions)
• Physically healthy and medically fit for high-intensity martial arts and self-defense training
• Prior experience in a martial art or combat sport that emphasizes striking and kicking techniques

4. Required Equipment

To participate effectively in the training drills and record homework assignments, we recommend the following protective and training gear:

• Mouthguard (gum shield)
• Groin protector

• Boxing / MMA sparring gloves
• Training dummy weapons (training rubber knife, training stick/baton)
• Smartphone or video camera capable of recording clear video submissions

5. Registration & Account Security

Using our platform requires creating a user account. You are required to provide complete and truthful information during registration and keep your account details updated. Login credentials must be kept strictly confidential and may not be shared with third parties.

6. Fees and Payment Terms

Course fees are displayed transparently during checkout prior to booking. Payments are due in advance upon registration and are processed securely via our checkout system. Unless otherwise stated by statutory consumer protection law, fees are non-refundable once course access and performance have begun.

7. Right of Withdrawal & Premature Expiration

If you are a consumer residing within the European Union or other jurisdictions granting a statutory right of cancellation, you generally possess a 14-day statutory right of withdrawal.

8. Intellectual Property & Video Rights

All materials, videos, instructional concepts, curriculum structures, and documentation provided on the platform are protected by copyright and intellectual property laws. They are licensed solely for personal training and qualification purposes and may not be copied, reproduced, shared, broadcast, or distributed without our prior written consent.

By submitting homework videos and course material to KMO for evaluation, the participant grants the provider a non-exclusive, royalty-free, perpetual, and geographically unlimited right to use these recordings for promotional, educational, and marketing purposes. This includes publishing excerpts on our website and on our official social media channels (e.g. Instagram, YouTube). Participants may object to or revoke this marketing usage for future publications at any time by notifying us in writing (please refer to our Privacy Policy).

9. Health Notice & Limitation of Liability

Martial arts, combat conditioning, and self-defense training are physically demanding activities that carry inherent risks of injury. Participants practice all techniques and drills at their own risk and responsibility. We strongly advise consulting a qualified physician prior to beginning any strenuous physical training program.

KMO is liable without limitation only for damages resulting from injury to life, body, or health caused by intentional or grossly negligent breach of duty. In all other respects, liability for slight negligence is excluded to the extent permitted by applicable law.
