Account owners may remove members who no longer require access and invite new authorized users to occupy available seats.
Removing a member ends that member's access through the Classroom Membership.

The applications provide interactive learning opportunities for students, educators, artists, designers, and other interested individuals.
The educational content is intended to supplement classroom instruction, personal learning, and creative exploration.
It is not intended to replace professional instruction, individualized educational assessment, or specialized assistance when required.

Achromatopsia.
These educational resources are intended to encourage understanding, awareness, and consideration of different color perception experiences.
7.3 Limitations of Color Vision Simulations
NopiaLens™ provides computer-generated simulations intended to illustrate possible differences in color appearance.
The simulations do not represent an exact or universal reproduction of how every individual with color vision deficiency perceives colors.
Individual color perception may vary, including among people with the same type of color vision deficiency.
Simulation results may also be influenced by display characteristics, device settings, and the images being examined.
Users should interpret the simulations as educational illustrations rather than definitive representations of another person's visual experience.
7.4 Medical and Diagnostic Disclaimer
The Nopia Color Wheel, NopiaLens™, and other ICS educational applications are not medical devices or diagnostic instruments.
They are not intended to diagnose, screen for, treat, prevent, or determine the severity of color vision deficiency or any other medical condition.
The educational applications do not replace professional vision examinations, clinical testing, or medical advice.
Individuals seeking evaluation or diagnosis of a possible color vision deficiency should consult a qualified eye care professional.
7.5 Educational Interpretation and Individual Differences
Color perception is not identical for every individual.
The Inclusive Color System encourages educators and students to recognize that individuals may experience and interpret colors differently.
Teachers should use professional judgment when selecting instructional activities and should avoid treating simulated color appearances as definitive evidence of an individual student's visual capabilities.
7.6 Accessibility and Inclusive Learning
Color Theory Education, LLC seeks to support inclusive educational experiences through its color education resources.
However, the availability of educational tools addressing color vision deficiency does not guarantee that every application, feature, or activity will be suitable or accessible for every individual.
Teachers, schools, and other users are responsible for determining whether the applications meet their specific instructional and accessibility needs.
Color Theory Education, LLC welcomes feedback concerning usability and accessibility.
7.7 Professional and Institutional Use
Educators, researchers, and institutions may use the ICS educational applications within the permissions granted by their membership or applicable licensing agreement.
The applications should not be represented as clinically validated diagnostic tools or used to make medical determinations.

Features, interfaces, and functionality may be modified as the educational applications continue to develop.
8.5 Third-Party Technology and Services
The ICS educational applications and membership services may rely on third-party technology providers, including website hosting, membership management, and payment processing services.
