Social Impact Network – Terms and Conditions

The Social Impact Network is the EVPA’s members-only forum. It allows members to connect and discuss VP-related issues.

Registration

1. Signing up to the Social Impact Network is free of charge. The registration is for the employees of a member organization rather than the organisation itself. Several employees from the same organisation may register.
2. After registration, you may choose to add some personal data to your user profile. Your profile works as a virtual business card. It will be visible to all users of the Social Impact Network.
3. Please provide a valid Email address. This will not be made public, but users of the Social Impact Network will have the possibility to send direct mails to each other.
4. We will collect personal information only by lawful and fair means and not in an unreasonably intrusive way.
5. If you no longer wish to have a registered account, you may deactivate your account by sending an email to info@evpa.eu.com
6. By signing up to the Social Impact Network you agree to uphold the rules set out below

Rules of conduct

At EVPA we value and encourage an open and transparent debate. To ensure the integrity of this forum, we ask that all users respect the following rules:
1. Respect other people and their opinions. Insulting, racist, obscene, and lewd remarks will not be tolerated. Anyone who violates this policy will be removed from the network.
2. We reserve the right to delete any harmful, abusive messages at our discretion
3. Discuss within the boundaries of a given group topic; if you would like to discuss something outside the parameters set by the group owner; please start a new discussion group.
4. Some issues discussed may be considered sensitive information. As an EVPA member you are part of a confidential circle and must thereby respect the confidentiality of the information within this network. Unless a topic is made publically available on the EVPA website, please consider it a matter of confidentiality. Do not use any of the information published on the Social Impact Network without getting permission beforehand.
5. EVPA follows a strict no-pitching policy. Anyone who pitches, whether through public discussions or personal messages, will be removed from the network.
6. We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness or utility of any of our users’ posts. We are not responsible for the contents of any posting. Postings express the views of their authors, not necessarily the views of EVPA
7. The opinions expressed by members of the network do not reflect EVPA policy, and we are therefore not responsible for member comments
8. You (a user of the network) own the information you post about yourself on your personal profile.
