Gaggle Terms of Service
Please read the following agreement carefully. This document explains your
rights and obligations as a user of Gaggle. While Gaggle provides an exciting
opportunity to expand the learning environment, our goal is to protect our
users from inappropriate materials and content received and sent via e-mail. In
the future Gaggle will provide online tools for the schools of tomorrow.
The Gaggle.Net e-mail service is the first of many learning tools we will
offer. We invite you to grow with us as we help to prepare schools for
the virtual classroom of the future.
The internet and e-mail world is changing rapidly. For these reasons it may
be necessary to update or revise parts of this agreement or features of the
Gaggle service. If Gaggle makes changes, we will provide you with 30 days
notice. If you choose not to agree with the proposed changes your only remedy
would be to cancel your Gaggle membership. Gaggle may at any time modify or
discontinue Gaggle e-mail service without liability to any user or third party.
Acceptance of Terms:
By completing the registration process, providing us with current, complete
and accurate information, and by clicking on the "I Accept" button,
you are agreeing to be bound by these terms of service.
General Policy and Guidelines:
When your information is verified and you accept this agreement, you will
become a "School Master," "School Administrator," or
"Student User" of Gaggle. As a "School Master" or
"School Administrator" you accept responsibility to issue accounts to
only those individuals that are students, teachers, or verified employees of
your school/district. Although an industrious user may discover ways to send or
receive inappropriate information that has yet to be identified by Gaggle, your
student’s access to and the use of Gaggle shall for this reason be under a
teacher’s direction and monitored as a regular instructional activity.
Guideline I: Unacceptable uses of Gaggle E-Mail include:
1. Transmitting any content; by which we mean text, software, images, sounds, and other information, that is unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, vulgar, obscene, in bad taste, hateful, of malicious intent, or racially, ethnically, or otherwise offensive.
2. Impersonating any other person, entity, or organization or misrepresenting your affiliation with any other person, entity, or organization.
3. Intentionally transmitting any material that contains software viruses designed to interrupt or destroy the use of computer software, hardware, or the Gaggle service.
4. Transmitting any "spam," "chain letters," "pyramid schemes," etc.
5. Copying any content that would be in violation of patent, trademark, copyright law, or other protected material.
Guideline II: Account users shall be responsible for unauthorized access made through their username and password. For this reason Gaggle recommends that users change their passwords periodically.
Guideline III: Gaggle uses a variety of measures to protect the security and privacy of its users (please refer to the privacy statement for further details). Users should be aware, however, that Gaggle cannot guarantee security and confidentiality. Gaggle accepts no responsibility for harm caused directly or indirectly by its use. Users should also be aware that the use of Gaggle E-mail is not private. While Gaggle does not routinely monitor message content, it may be necessary to back up or review messages to identify network problems or if a user has violated this policy. Gaggle at its discretion may choose to turn over or make available message content to appropriate personnel or law enforcement agencies if required.
Guideline IV: Message Storage and Other Limitations
The amount of e-mail storage space is limited for each user depending upon your school's subscription. Gaggle is not responsible or liable for the deletion of messages or other information.
Guideline V: Warranty
Gaggle users agree that use of Gaggle e-mail is the sole risk of the user. Gaggle does not guarantee that members will be able to access or use the Gaggle network at all times or from all geographic locations.
Guideline VI: Indemnification
You agree to hold Gaggle and all of its employees and affiliates harmless from any damage or claim arising from your use of this service.
