The answer

Intellectual property rights are protected and may not be infringed upon. A participant in courses is not permitted to publish their content if the organizing body stipulated that they should not be published. The prevailing custom is that paid courses do not allow their content to be published, and what is known by custom is like a stipulated condition. Therefore, you must adhere to not publishing the course content.
