Introduction

This introductory part explains concisely the Tiiips licence, with few legal terms. The actual licence details follow in the second part below.


Tiiips (including the web site and the mobile app) is a system that allows users to exchange advice or suggestions (tips) on the most varied subjects. All users shall take full responsibility for what they write on the Web Site and Tiiips shall not be held responsible in any way whatsoever for those contents.


Users shall not use any coarse, offensive or provocative language, shall not spread spam on the system, shall not try to damage or use web “bots” or similar data gathering or extraction methods on the web site, and shall not annoy, pester, threaten or insult other users of the system in any way. Should any of the above behaviour take place then the Tiiips staff shall take immediate action to suspend that user’s account and IP and shall promptly inform the relevant authorities.


Users shall protect their own personal login from all unauthorised use. Furthermore, only one login is allowed for each single user. One of the fundamental characteristics of the system is the likes/votes of some objects/subjects and each user shall vote only once.


The system contents are divided into three categories:

1) Images posted to the personal profile, user’s name and surname, e-mail address, e-mail messages or chat exchanged among users

2) Personal data (date and place of birth, place of residence, sex etc.)

3) All other information posted to the systems such as images, reviews, comments, votes

Category 1 contents are the sole property of the user and he/she may ask for the cancellation, at any time, of such data should he/she no longer wish to be present on the system. This data shall be kept in strict confidence and shall not be transmitted to third parties without the explicit authorisation of the user.


Category 2 contents shall be used strictly for statistical purposes by Tiiips and kept even if the user cancels his/her subscription.


Category 3 contents become the property of Tiiips, but the author may use them in any form and for any purpose on other web sites or for other activities. It is inadvisable for users to post objects/subjects onto the system that are subject to copyright. Should this be necessary for questions of correctness, users shall always cite the author and type of licence.
