1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using the QIQ website (qiqtest.com) and the Quantum Intelligence Quotient assessment services (collectively, the "Services"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Services. The Services are provided by the Advanced Learning Academy ("ALA," "we," "us," or "our").
2. Eligibility
The QIQ assessment is intended for individuals aged 14 and older. If you are between 14 and 18 years of age, you must have the consent of a parent or legal guardian to use the Services. By using the Services, you represent that you meet these eligibility requirements.
3. Account Registration
To access the QIQ assessment, you must create an account. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration and to update your information as necessary to keep it accurate. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account.
4. Assessment Services
4.1 Description. The QIQ assessment is a cognitive evaluation that measures performance across six brain regions using a proprietary 60-220 scoring scale. Each score is verified through quantum computation across seven demographic dimensions. Upon completion, you receive a comprehensive cognitive assessment report.
4.2 Assessment Conditions. The assessment should be completed in a single sitting, in a quiet environment, without external assistance. Using reference materials, receiving assistance from another person, or using automated tools during the assessment constitutes a violation of these Terms and may result in score invalidation.
4.3 Score Delivery. Your QIQ report will be available within 24 hours of assessment completion. Most reports are delivered within 2 hours. Quantum verification processing times may vary based on system demand.
5. Assessment Limitations and Disclaimers
5.1 Not a Clinical Diagnosis. The QIQ assessment is an educational and informational tool. It is not a clinical diagnostic instrument. QIQ results do not constitute a psychological or neuropsychological evaluation, a diagnosis of any cognitive condition or disability, a medical opinion, or a substitute for professional clinical assessment. If you have concerns about cognitive function, learning disabilities, or neurological conditions, consult a qualified healthcare professional.
5.2 Limitations of Measurement. While QIQ employs rigorous methodology including quantum verification, all cognitive assessments have inherent limitations. Factors including fatigue, illness, test anxiety, environmental distractions, and temporary emotional states can affect performance. A single assessment score is a snapshot, not a comprehensive evaluation of cognitive capacity over time.
5.3 Equivalency Estimates. Equivalency mappings to other intelligence scales (WAIS-IV, Stanford-Binet 5, Cattell, Raven's APM, Woodcock-Johnson IV) provided in your report are statistical estimates derived from concurrent validity studies. They are approximate and should not be treated as official scores on those assessments.
5.4 No Employment or Academic Guarantees. A QIQ score, regardless of level, does not guarantee any particular outcome in employment, academic admissions, or other competitive contexts. QIQ reports are provided for personal informational purposes.
6. Pricing and Payment
The current price for the QIQ assessment is listed on the assessment purchase page. All prices are in United States dollars unless otherwise specified. Payment is required before assessment access is granted. We accept major credit and debit cards. Prices are subject to change; however, any price change will not affect assessments already purchased.
7. Refund Policy
7.1 Seven-Day Refund Window. If you are dissatisfied with the QIQ assessment for any reason, you may request a full refund within 7 days of your assessment purchase date by contacting us at assessments@advancedlearning.academy.
7.2 Conditions. Refund requests must be submitted within the 7-day window. Refunds will be processed to the original payment method within 10 business days. After 7 days, refunds are granted only at our discretion for documented technical issues that prevented assessment completion.
7.3 Report Access. If a refund is issued, access to your assessment report will be revoked. Your anonymized assessment data will remain in the norming database as described in our Privacy Policy.
