International Schooling offers an internal messaging system, through LMS, as a service to some Users in relation with those education programs that provide for messaging service. Messaging allows such Users to network with other such Users. International Schooling cannot assure the security of any information that such Users reveal through this messaging system, and the Users do so at their own discretion. Sent messages of this messaging system are only available to the author and recipients, as well as to other authorized personnel for ensuring and maintaining system integrity and also to make sure that Users are acting legally and responsibly as suggested by these Terms. Also, the messaging system can not be assured to be private and might be monitored. Messages pertaining to or in support of obscene or illegal activities or those that otherwise violate the Terms might be informed to the concerned authorities and can result in the loss of User privileges, exclusion from the User’s respective education programs, and/or legal action.

This messaging system found within LMS helps in smooth exchange of information, ideas and opinions between those Users whose respective education program offers access to it. These Users might only use the messaging system for structured activities, clubs or other educational uses as advised by the school department and as mentioned on the messaging system.

Use of the messaging system is subject to the rules governing it’s usage which is provided when a User accesses it (see also the Links section above).

Other than the messaging system, International Schooling may now and again offer chat areas and/or other communication or message functionality designed to enable Users to correspond with others (each a “Communication Service” and jointly “Communication Services”). The User concurs to use Communication Services only in agreement with these Terms and as mentioned on each Communication Service to send, receive and post messages and materials that are appropriate and, when pertinent, related to the specific Communication Service.

Any information that the User may provide to be posted to the messaging system or any other Communication Service would be disclosed and made available to all Users of that Communication Service and as a result, is not private any longer. We cannot ensure the security of such information that you share or disclose online in public areas, and you do so at your sole discretion. International Schooling does not endorse or control the messages, information or content found in any Communication Service; thus, International Schooling explicitly disclaims any accountability pertaining to the Communication Services and any actions ensuing from a User’s involvement in any Communication Services. All participants accept that any dependence upon such content will be at the own risk of the individual so relying.

Although International Schooling has no responsibility to do so, International Schooling reserves the right:

  • To supervise anything posted to the messaging system or any other Communication Services
  • To remove anything which is considered offensive by International Schooling or otherwise is in violation of these Terms or for any other reason as International Schooling considers necessary in its absolute and own discretion

At all times, International Schooling reserves the right to disclose any information as International Schooling deems required for any applicable law, disciplinary investigation, legal process, regulation, or governmental request, or to amend, decline to post, or to remove any information or material, completely or in part, at International Schooling’s own discretion.

Users might have the opportunity to offer material for inclusion in LMS. Such material might comprise of submission of work samples; writing messages; postings on the messaging system; involvement in clubs; submissions for newspapers, newsletters and yearbooks in text or other formats; etc. Users concur that they own and/or control all of the rights to the material they post and share and that the public use of this material would not infringe on or violate the rights of International Schooling or any third party.
