Welcome to the Jdotnetservices®-powered Solution on which these Terms of Use are posted. Jdotnetservices, Inc.® is proud to power this Solution.

These Terms of Use apply to Solutions which are enabled, built upon or powered by the Jdotnetservices software or technology programs, and to any related services or support provided or made available by Jdotnetservices in connection therewith (including, for example, telecommunication services through which certain communications are delivered by a Solution). A Solution may include the primary website of your school, school district or other organization (your “school”) or a mobile app, social learning environment or web-based platform for which your school has obtained rights of use on your behalf or for which you have obtained rights of use on behalf of your school. Jdotnetservices and your school provides the Solution to you subject to the following Terms of Use (“TOU”) which may be updated without notice to you, and which updates become effective when posted. You are responsible for regularly reviewing these TOU. Continued use of the Solution after any such updates shall constitute your consent to such changes. By accessing, browsing and using the Solution, you accept, without limitation or qualification, these TOU. If you do not wish to be bound by these TOU, you may not access or use the Solution.

If you are a user who accepted these TOU by means of a “click-wrap” or similar method of expressing your agreement, then your initial acceptance of these TOU represents your agreement to be bound by all updates subsequently posted by Jdotnetservices and to all other terms above regarding the effectiveness of changes, and you understand and agree that you are bound by all such changes and updates without any additional “click-wrap” or other affirmative acceptance thereof.

Please do not submit any unsolicited original ideas, modify the Solution or create enhancements to the Solution (including, without limitation, by modifying a page layout or creating a new page layout or otherwise changing the use or appearance of any portion of the Solution) if you do not want Jdotnetservices to be able to use those ideas, modifications or enhancements without paying you anything. Jdotnetservices wants to avoid misunderstandings if its products or services might seem similar to ideas submitted to it or used in connection with the Solution. If, despite this request, you still send unsolicited ideas or modify or enhance the Solution, then regardless of what your letter or email or anything else says, by doing so you agree that: (a) your ideas, modifications or enhancements will automatically become the property of Jdotnetservices, without compensation to you, and (b) Jdotnetservices can use them for any purpose and in any way, even give or sell them to others for any purpose whatsoever.

14. Local Laws; Export Control; International Issues. You are responsible for compliance with all applicable laws, including, but not limited to all local laws and all export and import regulations of the United States and other countries (as applicable). Except where the materials or content explicitly indicate Jdotnetservices’ marketing and promoting of the Solution in a particular country outside of the U.S., all marketing or promotional materials and content found on the Solution are directed to individuals, companies or other entities located in the United States. If you are using the Solution from outside the United States from a country with laws governing data collection and use that may be different from U.S. law, then by accessing and/or using the Solution (to the extent so permitted by Jdotnetservices), you consent to your personal information being collected, used and transferred outside of your country (including to the United States) in connection with such usage. If you do not so consent, do not access or use the Solution.

Except as described below, Jdotnetservices operates the Solution, and stores all associated content and data, in the United States (either itself or through a third party hosting provider). However, if you are participating in Jdotnetservices international exchange program which matches students in certain U.S. classes with their students in certain classes in China (also referred to at times as the “Greenleaf” program), the Solution, along with all content and data stored or presented in the Solution, is hosted in China.

The TOU will continue to apply to all past use of the Solution by you, even if you are no longer using it. You acknowledge and agree that Jdotnetservices and/or the Organization may terminate or block your use of all or part of the Solution, without prior notice for any reason, including, without limitation, if Jdotnetservices or your school believes you have engaged in conduct prohibited by these TOU (by way of example only, if your school determines that you have violated its internet safety and/or internet usage policy). You agree that upon termination or discontinuance for any reason, we may delete all information related to you on the Solution and may bar your access to the Solution and use of the Solution. NEITHER Jdotnetservices NOR YOUR SCHOOL SHALL HAVE ANY LIABILITY IN CONNECTION WITH ANY TERMINATION OF YOUR USE OF ALL OR PART OF THE SOLUTION.

17. General. By accessing the Solution, you agree to the above stated TOU. This Agreement is entered into in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, exclusive of its choice of law rules. Each party to these TOU submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts having jurisdiction in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and waives any jurisdictional, venue or inconvenient forum objections to such courts. In any action to enforce these TOU, the prevailing party will be entitled to costs and attorney fees. In the event that any provisions of these TOU are held to be unenforceable, such provisions shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that these TOU shall otherwise remain in full force and effect. These TOU and any posted guidelines or rules applicable to certain services within the Solution constitute the entire understanding between the parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof, and any prior written or oral agreements between the parties are expressly canceled. These TOU does not supersede any other agreement between Jdotnetservices and the school.
