Conditions governing access to and use of this website and the information platform of the Instituto Técnico del Petróleo, Minas e Industria (ITPMI).
By accessing, browsing or using this site, you declare that you have read and accepted these Terms and Conditions, the Legal Notice, the Privacy Policy, the Personal Data Processing Policy and the Cookie Policy. If you do not agree, you must refrain from using the site. These terms govern the use of the informational site; they do not by themselves constitute an enrollment contract, an accepted quotation or the provision of a specific course.
Use of the site implies acceptance of these terms. You declare that you have sufficient legal capacity under Ecuadorian law to accept these terms and, where applicable, to request information or quotations on your own behalf or on behalf of the organization you represent. If you act on behalf of a company, you declare that you are duly authorized.
The purpose of the site is to provide information about technical training programs, certifications, industries served, clients and partnerships, and to facilitate information or contact requests. It does not in itself constitute a binding offer, an enrollment e-commerce store or a virtual learning campus, unless ITPMI expressly enables those features with additional conditions.
You agree to:
ITPMI may suspend or restrict access when there are reasonable signs of misuse, without prejudice to the relevant legal actions.
Content about courses, delivery modes, accreditations, dates, places, venues, durations and features is for information purposes only. Prices, availability, admission requirements, applicable certifications, instructors and commercial terms are confirmed when quoting or contracting with ITPMI. ITPMI may update, suspend or remove site content without prior notice when necessary for operational, commercial or accuracy reasons.
Third-party brands, seals or mentions (e.g. IADC, PetroSkills, Ministry of Labor or other accreditations) are used in accordance with current authorizations or relationships; they do not necessarily mean that the third party operates this site.
By submitting a form or starting a WhatsApp inquiry linked to the site, you declare that the data is accurate, up to date and that you are authorized to provide it. Requests may be handled by email, phone or WhatsApp Business and recorded in our CRM/ERP (Odoo), as described in the Privacy Policy.
Submitting a request does not guarantee a place, date or specific price until there is express confirmation from ITPMI or an accepted contract/quotation.
In its current version, this site does not include student login or an LMS campus (e.g. Moodle). If ITPMI enables user accounts, virtual classrooms or other platforms in the future, it may require acceptance of additional specific terms of use, privacy and security. Unauthorized access to those platforms will be prohibited.
The brands, logos, texts, photographs, designs, videos, code, catalog databases and other content on the site are the property of ITPMI or of third parties who have authorized their use. Reproduction, distribution, public communication, transformation or commercial exploitation without written authorization is prohibited, except for personal and informational use permitted by Ecuadorian intellectual property law.
If you send comments, files or information through forms, you grant ITPMI a non-exclusive license to use that information solely to handle your request and manage the commercial relationship, without transferring ownership of your rights, and without prejudice to the LOPDP.
In in-person or virtual training sessions, ITPMI may request specific authorization to capture and use image or voice for institutional, training or attendance-evidence purposes, in accordance with personal data regulations and the terms of the contracted service.
The site may include links to third-party sites (social media, partners, maps, analytics providers, etc.). ITPMI does not control and is not responsible for the content, availability or privacy practices of those sites. The use of ITPMI's social media is also governed by the terms of each platform.
ITPMI strives to keep the information up to date and the site available, but does not guarantee the absence of errors, interruptions, viruses or incompatibilities with all devices. The site is provided "as is" to the extent permitted by law. ITPMI will not be liable for failures arising from force majeure, acts of God, third-party failures (hosting, internet, WhatsApp, Google, Meta) or causes beyond its reasonable control.
To the maximum extent permitted by Ecuadorian law, ITPMI is not liable for indirect damages, loss of profits, loss of user data, or harm arising from the use of or inability to use the site, except in cases of willful misconduct or gross negligence. Nothing in these terms limits liabilities that the law declares inalienable.
When you qualify as a consumer under the Organic Consumer Protection Law, these terms will be interpreted in accordance with that law. The consumer's inalienable rights prevail over any incompatible clause.
The processing of personal data is governed by the Privacy Policy, the Personal Data Processing Policy and the Cookie Policy, within the framework of Ecuador's LOPDP and article 66, paragraph 19, of the Constitution.
You agree to hold ITPMI harmless against third-party claims arising from misuse of the site, the submission of false or unauthorized information, or breach of these terms, to the extent permitted by law.
ITPMI may amend these terms by publishing the updated version on this page with the date of last update. Continued use of the site after publication implies acceptance of the changes, to the extent permitted by law and without prejudice to inalienable rights.
These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Ecuador. For any dispute arising from the use of the site, the parties submit to the competent judges and courts of Quito, Ecuador, without prejudice to the inalienable rights of the consumer or data subject where applicable, and to any alternative dispute resolution mechanisms the parties agree in writing.
