Checkout & payment

Purchases go through the cart and checkout (depending on enabled payment methods). Confirmation and download instructions are sent after validation.

  • Prices shown in euros incl. VAT on product pages
  • Order summary before final confirmation
  • Secure card payment (Stripe) or PayPal when you place your order

Formats, delivery & access

Depending on what you buy: physical shipping, digital download, platform access, or a font licence. The product page states the format and what is included.

Digital downloads

PDFs, ZIP packs, and other Longoka digital files.

Digital products are available from your account area or the link provided after purchase. They are for the identified buyer only — do not share raw files or download links.

  • Access tied to paid and confirmed orders
  • Personal or in-house professional use as stated on the product page
  • No republishing or reselling source files

Physical products

Printed books, paper editions, and items that require shipping.

Physical products are prepared and shipped to the address given when you order. Shipping fees and timelines are calculated or shown before you confirm payment.

For physical goods sold at distance to consumers, a withdrawal request may be made within 14 days from delivery, subject to legal exclusions and return of the product in a condition suitable for resale.

  • Accurate shipping address required for shippable items
  • Tracking or dispatch confirmation depending on the shipping method
  • Return request: email contact@longoka.com with your order reference
  • Standard withdrawal period: 14 days after delivery for eligible physical goods
  • Return shipping costs are paid by the customer unless the item is defective, non-conforming, or sent in error
  • Applicable statutory guarantees for defective or non-conforming goods remain in force

Courses, articles & online access

Content tied to your Longoka account rather than a downloadable file.

Buying a premium course or paid article opens access to the related content on the platform, within the limits of the product page. Access is personal and must not be shared.

  • Courses: lessons, videos, progress, and resources included as stated
  • Premium articles: reading or download as stated on the page
  • Access tied to the buyer's account — no resale or redistribution

Digital content & withdrawal

For digital content not supplied on a tangible medium, the right of withdrawal may not apply once performance has begun with your express consent and you acknowledged losing that right — notably from the first download or immediate file access after payment, under applicable consumer law.

Technical issue (expired link, corrupt file)? Email contact@longoka.com with your order reference.

Live sessions & recordings

Live classes, Q&A, and workshops may take place by videoconference (Google Meet or equivalent).

During a live session, the host may record it for teaching and communication purposes. Full replays are reserved for enrolled learners; excerpts or rebroadcasts may be published on Longoka social media and channels (YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok…). You are informed at the start of the session when recording is enabled.

  • Participants are informed before any recording
  • Excerpts, replays, or rebroadcasts may be published on Longoka social media and channels to promote the course and share culture
  • Full session replays: course area reserved for learners enrolled in the relevant programme
  • You may object to recording or ask that your voice/image not be distributed (including on our public channels): info@longoka.fr
  • Replays are secure links tied to each session; they do not replace attending live slots when the course requires it

Digital typefaces

Natikongo, Mandombe, and future editorial typefaces.

Purchasing a font grants a licence of use, not ownership of the files or the typeface name (Natikongo, Mandombe…).

  • The licence PDF in the ZIP (EULA) defines permitted use — if it conflicts with this page, the product EULA governs font usage
  • The current “personal + one website” tier covers desktop, web (@font-face on your domain), and exports where glyphs are rendered
  • Redistributing .ttf/.woff2 files, open CDN hosting, or resale requires written agreement

Access & account

Simple rules for safe and reliable use.

Account

You are responsible for the use of your account and actions performed through it.

  • Provide accurate information (and keep it up to date)
  • Do not share access credentials (unless explicitly allowed)
  • Report any unauthorized access as soon as possible

Availability

We do our best to keep the service available, but interruptions may occur (maintenance, incidents, updates).

We may modify, suspend, or remove features for technical, legal, or security reasons.

Content & intellectual property

Longoka content is protected — please respect rights.

Rights

Unless stated otherwise, content (texts, lessons, visuals, trademarks) is protected and remains the property of its rightful owners.

  • Do not reproduce or redistribute content without permission
  • Personal, non-commercial use by default
  • Trademarks and logos remain the property of their owners

Prohibited uses

You must not use the service in ways that harm the platform, users, or legal compliance.

  • Bypass access restrictions or copy protected content

  • Publish or distribute illegal content through the platform

Pricing & offers

À la carte — no single price grid.

Longoka does not require a general subscription: each course, article, book, or supply is sold at the price shown on its page at checkout. Some content remains free (public articles, previews, online games).

The Offers page introduces the main families (discovery, training, shop). The online shop lists paid products available in the cart.
