Acceptance of T&Cs

 

When creating an Account on ETMP, Users are explicitly asked to accept these T&Cs. If for any reason this is not the case, accessing an Account held at the ETMP platform, uploading data to and from any Account, and/or using any of the Services connected to the platform will still be considered as implicit acceptance of these T&Cs. Nevertheless, in such cases please contact us directly and without delay at the contact details set out in this document. Please also note that acceptance of these T&Cs also implies that you have read, understood and accepted the ETMP Privacy Policy, which can be found at the following link: https://teachingmobility.eu/privacy-policy.

 

 

Access to the ETMP

 

The objective of the ETMP is to: (i) support teaching and academic personnel in the search for Erasmus+ teaching and training mobility opportunities; and conversely (ii) support destination academics and institutions in the search for mobility personnel. 

 

Users acting on the platform may only be individuals of legal age in their relevant country.

 

Each User is responsible for the truthfulness and ongoing updating of all uploaded information and data. In any case, EUF reserves the right at any time to ask for confirmation and/or proof of the truthfulness of the above-mentioned information.

 

Use of the ETMP platform and related Services in violation of the terms of these T&Cs, as well as the provision of false information to obtain access to the platform, will result in the immediate termination of any infringing Account, at the sole and absolute discretion of EUF, without prejudice to compensation for any damage caused to EUF, other Users and/or third parties in connection with any violation.

 

Disclaimer

 

Although all the information on the Websites is checked thoroughly, it is disseminated for information purposes only. We take the necessary technical and organisational measures to ensure the accuracy of the information, yet we cannot be held responsible for the accuracy of provided information nor guarantee that the details within the websites are always fully complete, accurate and up to date. All information is provided subject to modification, error or omission.

 

We decline all responsibility for content coming from third parties to which the website has hyperlinks.

 

Finally, we shall not be held liable for and make no warranty in the event of interruption or malfunction of the website, nor can we be held responsible for direct or indirect damage incurred by the Users as a result of access to the website and its use, barring statutory exceptions.

 

 

Account use and access

 

Each Account must refer to a single natural person, identified at the time of its creation, and may not be shared between multiple users or individual persons in general. Violation of the foregoing may result in termination of Accounts at EUF’s sole and absolute discretion.

 

Obligations and responsibilities

 

Users are fully responsible to safeguard their access credentials - including in the sense of the combination of email and password - and to hold EUF, or in any case the entities managing the ETMP platform, harmless from any damages that may be suffered by EUF itself, by other Users, or by third parties due to the unauthorized disclosure, use and distribution of such credentials, unless such damages are due to wilful misconduct or gross negligence by EUF. 

 

Users must immediately notify EUF at  contact@teachwitherasmus.eu of: (a) any Account-related abuse; (b) the unauthorized disclosure, use and distribution of their Account credentials by or to any third party. Following such notification, EUF will renew the credentials of the respective Account and/or take any other measures reasonably necessary to protect the same including, if necessary, its deletion, if requested by the relevant User.

 

Each User is solely responsible for (and ensures) the following:

  1. They obtained consent and permission from any relevant individual or entity to upload their data onto the ETMP platform. If the data relates to individuals under the age of 18, such consent must have been obtained in accordance with the relevant national legislation. 
  2. EUF will be considered the Data Controller in relation to any uploaded Personal Data only with regard to the Processing carried out within the ETMP platform, after the upload of the above-mentioned Personal Data, in full compliance with the mentioned Privacy Policy. Conversely, the User who uploads Personal Data independently manages any previous Processing, ensuring EUF at least: (i) performing such processing in full compliance with the GDPR; (ii) having obtained any necessary consent, as mentioned above, to upload personal data to the platform, if needed, regardless of the specific purpose for which such data is being communicated and will be used; and (iii) having shown/communicated/forwarded to each relevant individual the Privacy Policy relating to the ETMP platform. At the same time, once the data concerning a User, an application, a mobility opportunity, or something else within the platform is published on the platform or communicated to a specific different recipient under such User’s request, the recipient shall independently manage any subsequent Processing.
     
  3. They own all intellectual property rights and all other rights, title and interest in any content uploaded through their Accounts, or that they have obtained the relevant permissions and licenses/authorizations from the respective third-party owners prior to uploading such content and/or communicating it to EUF via the ETMP platform or otherwise in connection with the related Services. EUF has the right to request evidence of such permissions and licenses/authorizations.
     
  4. The content they upload complies with all applicable laws and regulations, such as not being offensive, harassing, invasive of another's privacy, hateful, or otherwise unlawful.
     
  5. The content they upload does not require obtaining a license from or paying any fees and/or royalties by EUF to any third party for the performance of any Services that the Users have chosen to be performed by EUF or for the exercise of any rights granted in the present T&Cs. If not, Users will be solely responsible for obtaining said licenses and paying said fees and/or royalties.
     
  6. The content they upload is not harmful (for example does not entail/contain viruses, worms and other destructive codes) and does not contain any programs that overload or interfere with the work of the ETMP platform or distort the content uploaded by other Users.
     

Use of the ETMP platform, related Accounts, and related Services, in violation of any of the above commitments may result in termination of Accounts and prohibition of use of the platform at the sole discretion of EUF. 

 

In addition, Users agree to hold EUF and any person or entity attributable to it, as well as the entities operating the platform, harmless from any and all adverse consequences, damages, claims, demands for payment, and costs that may arise by reason of a breach attributable to them of the above commitments or other commitments made under these T&Cs.

 

In general, and notwithstanding the above, any data or piece of information shared on the platform shall not contain any material and/or statement which violates or infringes in any way upon the rights of others; which is unlawful, offensive or invasive of privacy or publicity rights; which gives rise to civil liability or otherwise violates any applicable law. The EUF, at its sole discretion, reserves the right to remove any data or piece of information that it deems inappropriate or to be failing to comply with these T&Cs . In such cases, the EUF will also notify the affected Users.

 

EUF shall not be liable for any loss, damage or personal injury to any User or their property or other caused or suffered in connection with the use of the platform or related Services, or related to any information collected therein. By accepting these T&Cs, Users expressly agree to the above disclaimer and accept the risks associated with it.

 

Should they become aware of any violation of these T&Cs, including by another User, Users are required to promptly notify EUF at the email address contact@teachwitherasmus.eu.

 

Termination of accounts

 

Regardless of what is stated elsewhere in these T&Cs, an Account remains open and operational until: (i) the relevant User terminates such Account; or (ii) EUF determines to sanction a violation of these T&Cs by terminating such Account.

 

 

Data protection specifications

 

Taking into account what is indicated in point 2 of the list in the section entitled “obligations and responsibilities”, and although there is cooperation in showing/communicating/sending to each Data Subject the ETMP Privacy Policy, EUF and the Users by accepting these T&Cs agree that no circumstances of joint controllership or Data Controller - Data Processor type relationships in between the same exist in relation to the use of the ETMP platform, and any related Services.

 

In particular, EUF decides autonomously the purposes and methods of Processing the Personal Data it collects in relation to such platform, acting to provide the Services to Users.

 

Therefore, considering the above, there is no need for any data processing agreement between EUF on the one hand and any User on the other hand. Nor can these T&Cs be considered as such, although, for the purposes of complementarity and clarity, they contain specifications and commitments related to the protection of Personal Data in relation to the ETMP, the Accounts and the Services related thereto.

 

 

Consent to use of submitted material

 

By submitting data or pieces of information on the ETMP platform, users grant EUF a non-exclusive, royalty-free, perpetual, worldwide licence to use the submitted material in relation to the Erasmus+ experience and organizational matters. Users grant the right to store, reproduce, modify, create derivative works, display, print, publish, disseminate, broadcast, communicate to the public or otherwise make publicly available, the submitted material in any format, medium and language, including on the internet, on mobile applications and on social networks. 

 

 

Consent to communication

 

The information Users publish on ETMP platform is not necessarily anonymous. In particular, contact information related to any Account may be accessed and used for communications strictly related to the ETMP by other Users. 

 

EUF may at any time contact the Users in order to request more information about the data they submitted upon the registration of the Accounts, to handle any potential issues, obstacles, or concerns that may arise.

 

Security

 

EUF makes good faith efforts to maintain information collected in relation to the Services in a secure operating environment that is not available to the public and is accessible only by authorized employees, agents or contractors.

 

 

Choice of Law and choice of Forum

 

Any dispute related to the present T&Cs concerning their application, binding nature, interpretation, whether directly or indirectly, shall be governed by the law of Luxembourg. 

 

In case any such dispute cannot be settled amicably between the users and EUF, it shall be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Luxembourg.
