Terms of use

These terms cover the Lebanon Course Planner website and connector (“the planner”). It is an independent project, not an official AUB or LAU service. By using it, you agree to these terms. Questions: hbm07@mail.aub.edu.

What the planner is

A planning aid for AUB and LAU students. In Claude and ChatGPT, it searches class timetables, suggests schedules that don’t clash, and answers questions about AUB’s catalogue. It can’t register you for courses, and it isn’t connected to AUBsis, Banner or any university account.

Check before you register

Timetables, seats and catalogue information can be out of date or wrong, and an assistant can misread them. Always check sections, times, seats, prerequisites and program requirements on your university’s systems and with your advisor before you register. Your registration decisions are your own.

Where the information comes from

Class timetables come from Resis, built by René Adaimi, who shares its data with this planner. Program requirements and course descriptions come from AUB’s undergraduate catalogue and department websites, used with AUB’s permission. That content belongs to its owners: use it for your own planning, and don’t copy it out of the planner in bulk.

Using it fairly

• Use the planner for your own course planning.
• Don’t overload it, scrape it or send automated bulk requests. Requests are rate-limited.
• Don’t try to get around its security or reach other people’s data.

We may limit or block access that breaks these rules.

Accounts

You only need an account to save schedules. You sign in with your university email and a one-time code; we never ask for a password. You can delete your account and everything it stores at any time: ask the assistant to delete your data (the delete_my_data tool), or email us. The privacy page explains what we store.

Availability

The planner is provided as is. It may change, be unavailable at times or stop, and features may be added or removed. We try to keep it accurate and running, but we can’t guarantee either.

Liability

To the extent the law allows, we aren’t responsible for losses that come from using the planner or relying on its information, such as a missed registration, a full section or a course that doesn’t count toward your degree.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. The date at the top shows the current version, and using the planner after a change means you accept it.
