Software Use Terms
The AppleRN software used for the Video classes, Exams , Progress Monitoring and Timer (hereafter collectively referred to as “software”) is designed to work with Java Runtime Engine (JRE) 8.0 or higher on Windows and Macintosh. Any attempt to use the AppleRN software with lower versions of JRE constitutes a violation of the terms and conditions set forth in this agreement, and might result in unexpected behavior, for which AppleRN cannot be held responsible or liable for any damages. The AppleRN software is designed to access your computer system’s clipboard during use. While a test is in progress, the AppleRN software shall disable all clipboard functions of your computer system (including, but not limited to, copy-paste-print and save-to-disk functions). Furthermore, the AppleRN software shall monitor all processes on your computer to determine if there exists any applications that could be used (intentionally or unintentionally) to copy contents. Simultaneous use of such applications (hereafter referred to as “dubious applications”) with the AppleRN software constitutes a violation of this agreement. AppleRN reserves the right to determine which applications are classified as “dubious applications”. When such a process or application is found to be active on a user’s machine, the administrator will be notified with the process name. The user will also be notified with instructions to disable it on every attempt. In addition, AppleRN reserves the right to disable the launch of any test(s), if any such “dubious application” is found to be active on the user’s computer system. The user may not be able to switch between applications when AppleRN software is running. The user also understands and acknowledges this disabled function as part of the subscription terms.
The content presented in the self-assessment examination serves as an educational tool only for nurses and nursing students . The Assessment Score is calculated by AppleRN based on its own proprietary algorithm. This is not intended to predict your performance on the actual RN Exam, but is designed to help you assess relative strengths and weaknesses in different subjects and systems of nursing.
AppleRN will always keep your account and self-assessment exam performance results confidential and will not provide such information to third parties without your consent.
The AppleRN software has been tested with a wide range of computer configurations; however, due to the rapidly evolving computer industry and unpredictability of various factors affecting computer systems, AppleRN does not guarantee the functionality of its software on every configuration, nor does AppleRN guarantee predictable behavior of the software in general. You recognize all of the above terms and accept that use of the AppleRN software on your system is done solely at your own risk.
Access via Mobile Devices – Videos and Exam Services Only
Access to Videos and Exam Services via certain mobile devices is provided as an additional feature, but it is not intended to be a replacement for computer access. AppleRN, at its sole discretion, may choose to discontinue offering access via any or all mobile devices at any time with or without reason or explanation.
In order to install and use any of our software or app(s), you must have a compatible device that meets all system requirements as mentioned in section “System Requirements”.
“Jailbroken” or “Rooted” devices are not supported. (Jailbroken/Rooted devices refer to any devices that do not have original equipment manufacturers’ (OEM’s) operating systems and/or any devices that have operating systems that have been modified in a manner not approved or supported by the OEM). You agree that you will not attempt to install or use the software on any jailbroken/rooted device. Further, any attempt to install or use the software on a jailbroken/rooted device will constitute breach of these terms and conditions of use and may result in account termination, without refund, at the sole discretion of AppleRN.
You agree that AppleRN will not be held liable for any damages to your devices, operating systems, and/or any data loss resulting from the direct or indirect installation or use of the provided software.
No refunds or cancellation will be honored due to your inability to install and/or use the provided software on any mobile device (regardless of whether or not the device meets the minimum system requirements).
An internet connection is required while the software is in use, and a Wi-Fi internet connection with an unlimited data plan is highly recommended (both unlimited upload and unlimited download). Use of a fixed data plan, limited data plan, and/or any other pay-per-use data plan for internet connection is not recommended. If you use a fixed, limited, or pay-per-use data plan, you will be solely responsible for any data charges incurred. You agree that AppleRN will not be held liable for any data charges, overage fees, or any other miscellaneous fees or costs that result, directly or indirectly, from use of the software on your devices, including in the event of software malfunction.
While a test is in progress, you agree that you will not attempt, in any way, to copy or capture the contents of any test screen (including, but not limited to, via any OEM-provided functionality or third-party applications). AppleRN reserves the right to disable your account without refund in the event that you copy or attempt to copy any AppleRN copyrighted content.
It is your sole responsibility to ensure that your mobile device is appropriately used and safeguarded. In the event that your device is lost or stolen, you must notify AppleRN immediately so that we may disable access to the account. Any violations of these terms and conditions under your account will be treated as if you performed said actions, and you will be fully liable for any damages directly or indirectly resulting from said violations.
Export Restrictions on International Sales
In accordance with current U.S. export restrictions, AppleRN software may be downloaded by individuals throughout the world except those in the following embargoed countries: Cuba, Iran, Syria, North Korea and Sudan. If you are residing in one of these countries, you may not purchase a subscription or download AppleRN software.
Access to Course Content
You shall be allowed to use the licensed materials for the specific course(s) and material(s) to which you have subscribed. Each course has its own subscription fees and course duration. You are not allowed to access the content of courses that you have not subscribed to.
Reasonable Use
AppleRN products are intended for individual self-study and exam preparation and are sold in the form of subscriptions. The products are designed to facilitate careful review by users of all content contained within the subscriptions in order to deliver maximum benefit and optimal study experience to our typical users (hereafter also referred to as “normal” product usage). “Typical” refers to users with a usage pattern of at least 90% of regular users of any particular subscription. Normal product usage does not include rapid playing of videos without reasonable time for completion, or usage which is suspected to be shared between multiple users on the same device/network.
Usage of AppleRN subscriptions which is determined not to fall under reasonable use may result in action taken against the account, at AppleRN’s sole discretion. Subscription utilization that is indicative of, or arising from, impermissible business, multiple user, community, or fraudulent use may result in suspension or termination of the subscription in question. AppleRN may contact any user at any time to request clarification of a usage pattern which does not fall under reasonable use.
Order
Most of the information collected in the registration process will be used to process orders. During the order process, you may have to provide financial information such as your credit/debit card number, expiration date, CVV2 code, payee name, and billing address. This information is used for billing purposes and to fulfill your order. To properly process your credit/debit card information, we must share your personal and financial information with the merchant bank for authorization and approval. This process is protected by an enhanced security system. We do not share your personal and financial information with any third parties.
When you attempt a transaction on our website, the card processor verifies available funds by placing a hold, or pending charge, on the amount of the intended transaction against your card. The card processor then confirms the accuracy of your remaining information (e.g., your address, CVV2 Code, expiration date, etc.) before processing the transaction. If you enter an incorrect address or other associated detail, then the transaction is declined. This is NOT a situation unique with this website, but it is how virtually all online transactions are handled. Typically it takes the card issuing bank 2-5 days to clear associated pending charges resulting from failed/declined attempts.
We charge for each successful transaction attempt and provide a confirmation of such on our website and send a confirmation email to the registered email address upon each successful transaction on our website.
Refunds
Except as otherwise provided in this agreement or at the sole discretion of AppleRN, no refunds, cancellations, or changes to subscriptions will be allowed. AppleRN reserves the right to refuse a refund if the user is found to be in violation of Terms and Conditions or acting against AppleRN’s interest.
Member Account/Password and Security
You must complete AppleRN’s registration process in order to subscribe to and use the services by providing us with current, complete, and accurate information as prompted by the applicable registration form. You shall be responsible for the accuracy of the data provided and may update your profile data in order to reflect the most accurate current information. You will also choose a password. You are entirely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and account and for any and all activities that occur under your account. You agree to notify AppleRN immediately of any unauthorized use of your account or any other breach of security.

The licensed materials, including all intellectual property rights within the licensed materials (such as copyright) are the sole and exclusive property of AppleRN. By indicating that you accept these terms, you do not become the owner of the licensed materials, but are entitled to use them according to the terms of this agreement.
Subscription Term
You have the right to use and access the licensed materials for the course(s) you have subscribed to for the duration of your subscription period unless an interval of maintenance downtime has been scheduled. Content will be provided as described in the respective product description pages and may change during the course of a subscription period to remain relevant. The subscription period will start immediately after activation unless you notify AppleRN about a desired start date before using any of the licensed content. Subscription(s) cannot be suspended temporarily and reactivated at a later date. You must use the course material within the subscribed period, and no free extensions are offered in exchange for any unused time.
At the end of your subscription period, your right to use and access the licensed materials will expire automatically unless you renew under AppleRN’s current terms and conditions. A renewal will allow you to work on existing subscription for a preset extended period. Renewals are offered as a continuation to a current subscription term but not for later use after this term has expired. You must renew the subscription prior to its expiration date. A renewal will be provided only for the course subscribed. Some courses are offered as a combination package(s), and renewal will only be permitted for individual courses in the package but not for the original combined package. This agreement and your right to use the licensed materials will also terminate at AppleRN’s sole discretion if you fail to comply with any terms or conditions.
