E-SAFETY and COPYRIGHT 🤝

  •  

     

    The TwinSpace can be accessed by any browser which is newer than two years. No specific technical requirements are needed. The complexity and richness of some pages suggest to avoid using a mobile view.

    The TwinSpace is safe from many points of view:

    • Content published in pages is restricted to its members by default. If pages are made public, administrators are informed of the consequences. Users should not forget, however, that the posts in the Homepage’s newsfeed (and the embedded materials) are always public.
    • TwinSpace members are warned whenever their action may have an impact on copyright and data protection issues. With the new GDPR, this area has been vastly improved via guiding users to an informed and responsible use of their content.
    • Content embedded in pages can include both materials hosted in the TwinSpace (files, pictures) and other content hosted elsewhere (videos, websites displayed via iFrames). The TwinSpace will only host content for which members have declared they own the copyright and permission to use it. Embedding content residing on other servers (videos and iFrames) is subject to the copyright of the hosting services used. Source code cannot be embedded in pages as it may include malware, snippets or content for which users have no permission.
    • Pupils profiles will never be publicly visible. Pupils participating in the TwinSpace only need a username and a password set up by their teachers. Pupils’ and students’ email addressed (if they have one) will never be asked to participate in TwinSpaces: this is to avoid the risk that such email addresses can be misused, even if unintentionally.
