1.3. The level of access is based on the tier purchased (for example, 5, 50, 100, or 500 sub accounts).
1.4. Sub accounts must only be issued to staff who are directly employed or contracted by the School or organisation.

• Distribute the content to third parties
• Use the content for commercial purposes or deliver training to external organisations using Safeguarding.Pro materials

2.3. Group Viewing
The School or organisation may display Safeguarding.Pro videos to staff for group training sessions, provided the videos are streamed directly from the platform and no recording, downloading, copying, or redistribution takes place.
