3. Code of conduct
3.1 We have to set up some ground rules. Honestly, most of what we cover here should go without saying. However, it’s better to be upfront about things, rather than just assume everyone knows how they are expected to conduct themselves using our Services. These rules are all referred to as our “Code of Conduct.”
No Illegal Activity: This is about as simple as it gets. Do not use the Services for any illegal activity. Period. You are not allowed to use our Services to engage in any kind of conduct that violates any applicable federal, state, local, or international law or regulation (including, without limitation, any laws regarding the export of data or software to and from the US or other countries).
No Fraud: Yes, this is probably covered in the No Illegal Activity section above, but we want to make this very clear. Fraud will not be tolerated in any capacity.
No Bad Code: Do not use the Services to transmit, distribute, send, etc. viruses, worms, or any other code that may be deemed dangerous, harmful, or destructive in any manner.
No Spamming: Seriously. No one likes spam. We don’t like spam. We’re pretty sure that you don’t like your inbox cluttered with spam. You may not use the Services to engage in any activities that will result in sending spam to anyone using the Services.
No Exploitation: You will not use the Services to try to gather personal information on anyone.
No Impersonation of WeWillWrite or its employees: Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but not when it comes to representing that You are a part of WeWillWrite. You will not impersonate WeWillWrite or any of its employees.
No Data Mining or Bots: You may not use any data mining, robots, or similar data gathering or extraction methods; and
No Use Other Than Intended: You may not use the Services or any content contained on the Platform for any purposes other than intended.
If You violate this Code of Conduct we reserve the right to remove You from the Services. Whether conduct violates our Code of Conduct will be determined in WeWillWrite’s sole discretion.
5. Course and services content
5.1 While we’re on the subject of ground rules, we should also discuss what content is prohibited on the WeWillWrite Platform. For a number of reasons, there are certain subject matter types that we simply will not allow to be published on the WeWillWrite Platform.
5.2 WeWillWrite reserves the right to remove You and your content should your content contain material (determined, in our sole discretion) that is libelous, slanderous, pornographic, obscene, unlawful, threatening, defamatory, or otherwise objectionable or violates any party’s intellectual property or any other part of this Agreement.
6. Intellectual property and your content
In operating our Platform, it’s important for us to make it clear who owns what. You are trusting us with your content and consistent with WeWillWrite’s genuine belief in transparency we want to make it simple for You to know exactly what You are getting into when You join the WeWillWrite community.
6.1 WeWillWrite content: Content on the Platform, including all information, software, technology, data, logos, marks, designs, text, graphics, pictures, audio and video files, other data or copyrightable materials or content, and their selection and arrangement, is referred to herein as "WeWillWrite Content", and is and remains the sole property of WeWillWrite. WeWillWrite Content, including our trademarks, may not be modified by You in any way.
6.2 Your Content is considered “Private User Content” unless you actively share, or you are part of a School and/or District Plan with limitations on public sharing. We want to build a community where teachers feel safe and sharing is optional and controlled by the individual teacher, School and/or District.
You retain ownership of all rights, including intellectual property rights by uploading your content to our Services for both Public User Content and Private Content.
WeWillWrite may review your Public User Content for any reason, including compliance with our Code of Conduct and prohibited content requirements, but WeWillWrite has no obligation to review anything that You upload.
By making Public User Content, you represent and warrant that the downloading, copying and use of the Public User Content will not infringe the proprietary rights, including but not limited to the copyright, patent, trademark or trade secret rights, of any third party;
By making Public User Content, you hereby grant to WeWillWrite a perpetual (or, for as long as permitted under applicable law), non-exclusive, sub-licensable, transferable, royalty-free, irrevocable, fully paid, universal license to commercialize, use, reproduce, make available to the public (e.g. perform or display), publish, translate, modify, create derivative works from, and distribute your Public User Content through any medium, whether alone or in combination with other content or materials, in any manner and by any means, method or technology, whether now known or hereafter created.
WeWillWrite needs this license because you own your content and WeWillWrite therefore can’t display it across its various surfaces (i.e., mobile, web) without your permission.
This type of license also is needed to distribute your content across our Services. For example, if we want to showcase Public User Content on WeWillWrite Discover. It is reproduced as versions on both our website and app, and distributed to multiple places within WeWillWrite, such as the page where users can browse WeWillWrite Discover. A modification might be that we show a snippet of your work (and not the full Set of Challenges) in a preview, with attribution to you.
We will of course remove your personal data related to Public User Content on request.
“Student Texts” are the written content made by participants during a WeWillWrite Challenge you host. WeWillWrite will never publish student texts.
6.3 As we ask others to respect our intellectual property rights, we respect the intellectual property rights of others. If you believe that material located on or linked to by WeWillWrite violates your copyright, you are encouraged to notify WeWillWrite by email at daniel@wewillwrite.com. WeWillWrite will respond to all such notices, including as required or appropriate by removing the infringing material or disabling all links to the infringing material. In the case of a User who may infringe or repeatedly infringes the copyrights or other intellectual property rights of WeWillWrite or others, WeWillWrite may, in its discretion, terminate or deny access to and use of the Services.
