Terms of use and sale
Last updated: 10 November 2026
- FortyFive is an independent IB revision website. The free plan is free; paid plans are a one-off payment for a fixed period and never renew automatically.
- Payments are handled by Paddle, who is the seller of record.
- Changed your mind? Full refund within 14 days of purchase, no questions asked.
- Your account is for you only. Please don't share it or copy our content.
- We work hard on accuracy, but we can't guarantee any exam result.
1. Who we are
FortyFive (fortyfiveib.com) is run by [Full name], sole trader, [postal address] (“we”, “us”). Contact: [contact email].
By using the site or creating an account, you accept these terms. If you don't accept them, please don't use the site.
2. The service
FortyFive provides revision lessons, interactive diagrams, practice questions and papers, a study planner, a university and careers helper, and IA/EE feedback tools for International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma subjects.
- FortyFive is not affiliated with or endorsed by the International Baccalaureate Organization. Our questions are written in the style of IB exams; they are not official IB past papers.
- We regularly improve and update content. We may add, change or remove features, but we won't remove the core content of a plan you have paid for during its access period.
- Automated (AI) feedback is a study aid. It can be wrong and is never an official or predicted grade. Your teachers and the IB decide your marks. Paid plans include a monthly number of AI checks, shown with each plan.
3. Accounts
- You can use much of FortyFive without an account. An account lets you save your progress across devices and is needed to buy a plan. You sign in with a one-time link sent to your email, or with your Google account.
- You must be 15 or older to create an account on your own. If you're under 15, a parent or legal guardian must agree first. Anyone under 18 needs a parent's or guardian's permission to buy a paid plan.
- Keep access to your email and Google account private. You're responsible for what happens in your FortyFive account. Tell us straight away if you think someone else is using it.
- You can ask us to delete your account at any time by writing to [contact email].
4. Plans and prices
- The Free plan includes the features and daily limits shown on the site.
- Paid plans give access for the period shown when you buy (for example 3 months, 6 months or 2 years). It's a one-off payment: there is no subscription and no automatic renewal. When the period ends, your account returns to the Free plan and your progress is kept.
- Prices are shown in euros and include VAT where it applies. The price you pay is the one shown at checkout.
- A plan is for one student. Sharing your account, or a gift code meant for one person, isn't allowed and may lead to the access being cancelled without refund.
- Gift or promotional codes give access for the period stated with the code and can't be exchanged for money.
5. Payment
Our order process is conducted by our online reseller Paddle.com. Paddle.com is the Merchant of Record for all our orders. Paddle provides all customer service inquiries about payments and handles returns. Paddle's buyer terms also apply to your purchase. We never see or store your card details.
6. Refunds and your right of withdrawal
- 14-day money-back guarantee: if you're not happy, ask for a full refund within 14 days of your purchase, for any reason. Reply to your Paddle receipt email or contact paddle.net, or write to us and we'll arrange it.
- Under EU consumer law you normally have a 14-day right of withdrawal for online purchases. Because paid access starts immediately, at checkout you're asked to agree to immediate access, which can end that legal right. Our 14-day money-back guarantee applies anyway.
- After 14 days, payments aren't refundable, except where the law requires (for example if the service doesn't work as described and we can't fix it).
- Refunds go back to the original payment method. When a refund is made, paid access ends.
7. Using FortyFive fairly
You agree not to:
- copy, download in bulk, resell or publish our lessons, questions or diagrams;
- share your account or gift codes;
- try to get around payments, limits or security, or disrupt the site;
- submit work for feedback that isn't yours, or use FortyFive to break your school's or the IB's academic honesty rules.
If these rules are broken we may suspend or close the account involved. We'll tell you why where we can.
8. Intellectual property
All content on FortyFive (text, lessons, questions, diagrams, design and logo) belongs to us or is used with permission and is protected by copyright. You may use it for your own personal revision only. Work you write and submit for feedback stays yours.
9. Our responsibility
- We take care to keep content accurate and the site available, but we can't promise it will be free of errors or always online.
- FortyFive helps you revise; it doesn't guarantee any grade or university offer.
- Nothing in these terms limits rights you have as a consumer under French and EU law, or our liability where the law doesn't allow it to be limited.
10. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms, for example when we add features. We'll change the date at the top and, for important changes, tell account holders. Changes never reduce a paid plan you've already bought.
11. Complaints, mediation and law
- Please contact us first at [contact email]; we aim to reply within 7 days.
- If we can't solve it, you can contact our consumer mediator free of charge: [name and website of the consumer mediator].
- These terms are governed by French law. If you're a consumer, you keep the protection of the law of the country where you live, and you can bring a claim in the courts there.
