A Message to Our Valued Users About Cyberbullying
Dear Users,
Thank you for being part of the Smart Exam Resources family. Our website is a business designed to support students studying under the Cambridge curriculum by offering resources tailored to the prescribed syllabus. Like schools, tutors, and coaching academies, we charge for our services, reflecting the significant effort and resources required to provide quality material.
We strive to maintain a fair policy that ensures equitable treatment for all our users. While we aim to assist wherever possible, there are circumstances where support cannot be extended post-purchase. This is particularly true for online or downloadable products (like PDFs), which makes refunds unfeasible. To help users make informed decisions, we have detailed privacy and usage policies available.
We also ask users to acknowledge that websites offering Cambridge educational resources charge a fraction of what schools or coaching academies charge. This is because schools and tutors require substantial human effort to operate. Similarly, online platforms charge to keep their services accessible and sustainable. We offer previews, email/chat support, syllabus copies, and other assistance before purchase to ensure users have the necessary information. However, once purchases are made, we must adhere to our policies.
Unfortunately, our support channels are sometimes misused for unnecessary arguments or repetitive, unreasonable demands, which hampers our work and causes undue stress to our employees. Additionally, we’ve noticed incidents where individuals pose as fake students seeking help, sending prolonged emails or engaging in chats not because they genuinely need assistance, but at the recommendation of someone unhappy with our business due to a past experience. Such instances often involve groups ganging up, spreading defaming allegations, and engaging in malicious campaigns to tarnish our reputation intentionally.
This behavior is harmful not only to our team but also to the broader community of online businesses offering valuable services. Spreading false claims, ganging up, and defaming a business without cause is not only unethical but also an offense punishable by law.
Cyberbullying is a serious matter. While we have ignored such incidents in the past, we can no longer allow them to persist. Going forward, we will gather evidence of communications that qualify as cyberbullying or defamation and report such cases to the appropriate cyber authorities.
We urge users to approach online businesses respectfully, understanding that a "no" is sometimes the only feasible response. Cyberbullying not only disrupts the operations of a business but also negatively impacts the mental health of those on the receiving end.
To help curb this issue, we encourage all users to read and respect the terms and conditions of the any of the websites they use for any sort of activity. We also call on other online businesses to take a stand against cyberbullying, ensuring safe and supportive platforms for genuine users.
Cyberbullying and defamation are crimes, and together we can take steps to prevent them. If you or someone you know has faced cyberbullying, you can file a complaint in India using this link: Cybercrime Complaint Portal.
Thank you for being a valued member of the Smart Exam Resources community. Let’s work together to maintain a fair, safe, and supportive online environment.
Happy Learning,
Team Smart Exam Resources
