Effective Date: September 23, 2026
About These Terms
These Terms and Conditions describe the permitted use of bayanonline.org, the informational website of Bayan, a California religious nonprofit corporation (“Bayan,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). Please read them before using our forms or services. Particular applications, programs, events, donations, and online services may have separate terms presented for your agreement when you participate. Merely viewing this page or making a cookie choice does not enroll you, authorize a payment, or constitute acceptance of a separate program or transaction agreement.
Using the Website
You may use the website to learn about Bayan, explore programs and scholarships, contact us, and access the services and opportunities we make available. Use the website lawfully and respectfully. You must not attempt unauthorized access, interfere with website operation, introduce malicious software, impersonate another person, submit fraudulent information, or use our forms and contact channels for spam or harassment.
Information You Submit
When you submit a form or communicate with Bayan, provide accurate information and submit only material you are authorized to share. Keep account credentials confidential where a linked service requires an account. Contact us if you believe information submitted in your name is inaccurate or unauthorized. Our Privacy Policy explains the handling of personal information; a separate platform may also provide its own privacy notice.
Programs, Admissions, and Scholarships
Website descriptions provide general information and do not constitute an offer of admission or a scholarship award. Admission and scholarship decisions depend on the applicable requirements and review process. An application does not guarantee admission, an award, or a particular amount of funding.
Program availability, schedules, tuition, fees, eligibility criteria, deadlines, and award conditions may change. Applicable catalogs, admissions materials, enrollment agreements, scholarship award letters, and official policies govern the relevant program or award. Contact Admissions to confirm information important to your decision. Nothing in these website terms changes an existing enrollment agreement or award letter.
Donations, Payments, and Registrations
Review the amount, purpose, recurring-payment settings, and any applicable terms before completing a donation, payment, or registration. Payment processing may take place through an external provider. That provider may require acceptance of its own terms.
Refunds, cancellations, recurring-gift changes, and restricted gifts are subject to applicable law and the terms and policies disclosed for the relevant transaction. These website terms do not create a separate refund or cancellation policy. Contact support@bayanonline.org with questions about a transaction. The website does not provide individualized tax advice.
Website Content and Intellectual Property
Website text, photographs, graphics, videos, logos, and other materials are owned by Bayan or their respective rights holders, unless otherwise stated. You may view and share links to publicly accessible pages. Reproduction, republication, or commercial use of protected material requires the relevant rights holder’s permission, except where permitted by law or an express license. Do not use Bayan’s name or branding in a way that falsely suggests endorsement or affiliation.
Links and External Services
The website may link to educational partners, application services, fundraising platforms, learning systems, and other websites. Those services may have separate terms and privacy practices. Bayan does not control all content, availability, or practices on external websites. Review the relevant terms before submitting information or making a payment.
Accuracy and Availability
We aim to keep website information useful and accurate, but errors, delays, interruptions, and outdated information can occur. Please contact us if you notice an error. We do not guarantee uninterrupted website availability. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the website is provided on an “as available” basis. This statement does not override an express written commitment by Bayan or any right or protection that applicable law does not permit us to exclude.
Your Legal Rights
Nothing in these terms waives a consumer, privacy, student, or other right that applicable law does not permit to be waived. Nothing excludes responsibility for fraud, willful misconduct, or another matter for which liability cannot lawfully be excluded. These website terms do not impose mandatory arbitration, a class-action waiver, a shortened statutory claims period, or a release of claims. Applicable law and any valid, separately accepted agreement govern a dispute.
If a provision is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions apply only to the extent permitted by law. A website update does not retroactively change a completed transaction or remove an accrued legal right.
Changes to the Website and These Terms
We may update website content and these terms. Updated terms will appear on this page with a revised effective date. Material changes will be identified by a prominent notice on this page. Changes to website terms do not automatically amend a separate agreement you have with Bayan. Additional notice or consent will be provided where required by applicable law.
Questions and Contact
Questions about these terms or website use may be sent to support@bayanonline.org or directed to (714) 862-2926.
