Liability Policy:
Sensitive Topics and Documents

At Codex Academics, we understand the sensitivity of the academic and personal information shared with us. We are committed to protecting student and family privacy and handling all records and discussions with the utmost care and professionalism.
1. Transcript Review and Academic Records
When clients share unofficial or official transcripts or other academic records, we:
-
Use the information strictly for educational planning and advising purposes.
-
Do not store, share, or distribute these documents without client consent.
-
Encourage students/families to redact any unnecessary personal identifiers before submitting (such as social security numbers).
Codex Academics cannot be held liable for errors in the transcripts provided by students or institutions, nor for outcomes based on outdated or inaccurate records submitted to us.
2. Financial Aid (FAFSA & CA Dream Act) Discussions
Codex Academics offers general guidance and support around financial aid planning, including:
-
FAFSA and California Dream Act education
-
Helping families understand deadlines, basic steps, and financial terminology
Important Note:
We are not affiliated with the U.S. Department of Education, the California Student Aid Commission (CSAC), or any college financial aid office. Codex Academics does not submit financial aid applications on your behalf and is not responsible for errors, omissions, or missed deadlines in any official FAFSA, CADAA, or institutional aid process.
Clients are responsible for reviewing their final submissions and ensuring all required documentation is submitted to the appropriate entities.
3. No Legal or Financial Guarantee
Codex Academics does not provide legal or financial advice. Our advising services are educational in nature and should not be considered a substitute for professional legal, tax, or financial consultation.
