If you have any reservations, please discontinue your use of this website.
REGISTERING TO A WEBSITE: You are allowed to register once with one email address only. Deliberately using another person's name that is not your own is prohibited by law as impersonation. Registration might link your personal information to earlier actions you've taken in the website, or to an existing personal information imported by owners or administrators to this website at an earlier stage. You can register on the site as a representative of a registered corporation, if you are authorized to represent it and its viewpoints. Some site owners might enable you to enter their websites without registration.
ADDING YOUR ADVICE: As a participant, you are encouraged to add your advice and upload relevant content: texts, documents, images, links, files, graphics, video and audio. When you add any content, it is a point of "no return": other participants can comment on it; it may be edited, deleted, grouped or not published at all. Your content may be kept by entities you do not know, and be used to create aggregations and insights.
PUBLISHING YOUR ADVICE: As a participant, you should be aware that adding content to the website is not a guarantee of its publication. If owners, operators, administrators or participants notice content that does not promote the goals of a project or a website, they have the full and sole right to decide whether to publish, edit or delete the content. They can delete or change your content either directly or by reporting it as inappropriate.
LAUNCHING YOUR PROJECT: Once you are granted a license to launch a site or a project, you can only upload contents that you have the full rights to use. The content of public projects may be used, presented and replicated by Insights in other places. It will also be available to search engines and the public. As site owner, you bare the sole responsibility for any content that your selected project owners upload.
INSIGHTS CURATION: The process of turning advice into insights involves several stages and collaboration of different participants. ANY information you write may be edited, sorted, graded, suspended, deleted, approved, published, grouped or managed in different ways. Sometimes you may be required or allowed to participate in the analysis. Sometimes these processes can be completed without your involvement or even without your knowledge.
PUBLIC SPACE: Our websites are "public spaces". Once you have chosen to enter a website, we cannot guarantee your anonymity or your privacy. Therefore, any content you add is visible to others (even in a private project!), and may be modified or amended to turn it into insights. Any action on the site is visible and may be documented. As described in our Privacy Policy, we might reveal your personal information as well.
COMMUNICATION: You will receive updates, invitations and questions via emails or texts. These messages can be sent by using information you provided or by using information uploaded from other records. By registering, you declare that you are willing to receive such messages. You can revoke your permission by clicking on the link at the bottom of the e-mails or by emailing support@insights.us. When you unsubscribe, it will only apply to messages that were not yet sent and to the specific website you unsubscribed from.
IMPORT RECORDS: Owners and administrators can import information on users and send them messages inviting them to take part in a project. Users who upload data bear full responsibility for using the information, and hereby declare that the records were legally obtained, that they can legally send these messages and that they are solely responsible for doing so. Any breach of these terms or any complaint by users, once reported to Insights.US, would result in the immediate suspension of the website. WE WILL NOT TOLERATE SPAM, AND WILL PROMPTLY INVESTIGATE COMPLAINTS ABOUT INAPPROPRIATE USE.
POLICY VIOLATION. If a site owner believes that a certain activity on a website violates our terms & policies and/or does not promote the purpose of the site, s/he can prevent users from using the website, cancel registration or reveal users' personal information if necessary. Insights might also initiate such an action. Users should be aware that Insights.US has the sole discretion to do so, without any prior notice or explanation.
This website provides a space for a constructive, respectful, insightful and inclusive process of decision-making. You are encouraged to add your advice, engage others, perform analytical tasks and stay informed when insights are curated and decisions are made. However, because this is a moderated site, there are things you cannot publish and there are things we will remove:
There are some additional restrictions you must comply with:
If users post inappropriate contents or we have the reason to believe you are involved in any breach of our terms & policies, we may prevent you from using the site, take a legal action, remove, edit, or delete the problematic content. We can do so at our sole discretion without prior notice or explanation. You bear full responsibility for your contents and actions.

When adding content, you consent that any change to your content will not harm your copyrights or moral rights nor those of the creator or other third parties.

Qualitative Daten (Antworten, Kommentare, Befürwortungen, Kernaussagen, Erkenntnisse) sind grundsätzlich für alle Personen, die die Webseite besuchen, sichtbar. Von den Profildaten sind lediglich die Benutzernamen sichtbar.
Suchmaschinen können diejenigen Inhalte und Daten suchen, finden und darstellen, die auch für alle Nutzer zugänglich sind.
Seiteneigentümer (s.u.) und Seitenbetreiber haben Zugang zu allen Inhalten und Daten. Außerdem haben Unterauftragnehmer (Mailgun und Microsoft, s.u.) Zugang zu bestimmten für die Erledigung ihrer Dienstleistung notwendigen Inhalten und Daten.
Die Daten werden unter keinen Umständen an Dritte (die nicht Erfüllungsgehilfen sind oder im Auftrag des Seiteneigentümers (s.u.) oder des Seitenbetreibers Daten verarbeiten) weitergegeben oder zu kommerziellen oder anderen Zwecken veräußert.
Im Auftrag des Seiteneigentümers (s.u.) sowie des Seitenbetreibers sind folgende beauftragte Dritte im Rahmen der Auftragsverarbeitung mit Leistungen beauftragt:
Mit diesen Unterauftragnehmern sind entsprechende Auftragsverarbeitungsvereinbarungen gemäß Art. 28 DSGVO abgeschlossen. Sofern diese Unterauftragnehmer außerhalb des Gebiets der Europäischen Union (EU) registriert sind, ist die Angemessenheit des Datenschutzniveaus durch die EU-Kommission gemäß Art. 45 DSGVO festgestellt bzw. sind geeignete Garantien gemäß Art. 46 DSGVO (wie Abschluss europäischer Standardvertragsklauseln sowie Vereinbarung ergänzender Schutzmaßnahmen) vorgesehen.
Eine Offenlegung bzw. Weitergabe erfolgt nur, wenn dies zur Durchsetzung von Rechtsansprüchen des Seiteneigentümers (s.u.) und/oder des Seitenbetreibers erforderlich ist, insbesondere zur Durchsetzung von Ansprüchen aus dem Vertragsverhältnis mit Ihnen (siehe Nutzungsbedingungen/terms of use). Darüber hinaus geben Seiteneigentümer (s.u.) und Seitenbetreiber Daten an Dritte weiter, wenn sie dazu gesetzlich verpflichtet sind.
Die digitale Plattform ist auf dem Clouddienst Microsoft Azure von Microsoft Company gehostet. Microsoft und auch Mailgun unterliegen (auch) dem US-amerikanischen Recht. Aufgrund dessen kann nicht vollständig ausgeschlossen werden, dass US-Behörden Zugriff auf die dort gespeicherten Daten erhalten und diese damit auch in den USA ohne nach EU-Recht angemessenes Datenschutzniveau verarbeitet werden (z.B. zu Kontroll- oder Überwachungszwecken und ggf. ohne Rechtsbehelf). Dadurch können auch in der EU bestehende Betroffenenrechte eingeschränkt sein.
Ihre personenbezogenen Daten werden im Rahmen der gesetzlichen Bestimmungen maximal für die Dauer gespeichert, welche für die Erfüllung der in dieser Datenschutzerklärung genannten Verarbeitungszwecke (sofern eine Konsultation im Rahmen der Umfrage notwendig ist und Kontaktdaten angegeben wurden) nicht mehr erforderlich ist, es sei denn, die Aufbewahrung ist zur Erfüllung von rechtlichen Aufbewahrungspflichten weiterhin notwendig. In jedem Fall werden Ihre Daten nicht länger als erforderlich gespeichert.
Der Seitenbetreiber setzt technische und organisatorische Sicherheitsmaßnahmen ein, um Ihre personenbezogenen Daten gegen zufällige oder vorsätzliche Manipulationen, Verlust, Zerstörung oder gegen den Zugriff unberechtigter Personen zu schützen. Aufgrund der Struktur und Natur des Internets können wir keine Garantie für die Sicherheit Ihrer Daten geben.
Als von der Datenverarbeitung betroffene Person haben Sie gegenüber dem Verantwortlichen (Seiteneigentümer (s.u.)) gemäß Art. 15ff DSGVO Betroffenenrechte. Zur Wahrnehmung Ihrer Rechte wenden Sie sich bitte an den Seiteneigentümer (s.u.) oder senden Sie eine E-Mail an den Seitenbetreiber.

Videos oder bewegten Bilder: keine
Herunterladbare Dateien: keine
Formulare: Es gibt nur einfache Formularfelder mit Beschriftung im Feld

Die Vorgaben zu Überschriften und Vergrößerbarkeit sind erfüllt.
Die Vorgaben zur Tastaturbedienbarkeit sind größtenteils erfüllt. (Einzelne Erkenntnisse ausklappen ist nicht möglich.)
Die Website erfüllt zu einem großen Teil die Anforderungen des Easy Checks (https://bik-fuer-alle.de/easy-checks.html). Die Tatsache, dass die Navigierung auf einzelne Erkenntnisse nicht über die Tastatur funktioniert (sondern via Maus) ist ein Manko. Die Lesereihenfolge ist größtenteils logisch. Für jedes der drei Projekte wird allerdings der Willkommenstext der Entscheider neu angezeigt.

It defines your rights and obligations toward users and guests in a website ("Your Website"), which is derived and operated by using our code ("Software").

1.2 A website will enable you to create a project, define a question, gather advice from stakeholders through different channels, make decisions and communicate with users.
1.3 We will host your website and all of its data, including user personal information, on our servers. However, you own the data, and this ownership is NEVER transferred to Insights.
1.4 Your license might be integrated with separate, limited consulting services to help you design your project, manage it, turn advice into insights and draft your decisions.
1.5 Our software is updated automatically, without a prior notice. We will do our best to provide you with the best experience, but we cannot guarantee 100% success.
1.6 We take industry standard technical and organizational security measures to store, process and transfer your data, and to protect it against unauthorized access.
1.7 Our consulting partners and project managers will do their best to assist you, but we can decide at any time that a reasonable support was given and no more work will be done.

1.9 Your license is given on an "AS IS" and “AS AVAILABLE” basis.

2.3 For all legal purposes, YOU ARE THE SENDER and YOU ARE THE OWNER of any message, contact information and content. You will never approach users who did not give you an explicit permission to do that.
2.4 You will bear sole and full responsibility for any data offence related to your website, even if done so unintentionally by you or by project owners and administrators you appointed. Your responsibility cannot be shared, and you will compensate us for any cost that we will bear to protect this clause.

Once they are appointed, you bear the full responsibility for their actions, including any emails and texts they send to others.
3.2 Owners and administrators (of sites and projects) have the ability to create projects, upload users, export information and manage all contents of their project or their website. As such, they are at-risk of making mistakes.
3.3 As the Site Owner, you are responsible for selecting owners and administrators. You are also responsible for guiding them on how to fulfill their role, making sure they comply with our terms & policies and maintain the confidentiality of their passwords.
3.4 We reserve the right to suspend accounts of owners and administrators who violate our terms & policies or use our websites in a way that might create any kind of risks for them, for you, for other users or for us.
3.5 You are liable for EVERY ACTION taken by you or by other owners or administrators on your website or one of the projects. You hereby commit to defend yourself in any court or in any procedure that might be taken following an action on behalf of your team. You will also indemnify Insights for any cost this might entail.
4.1 Our services are licensed on a project-basis (one project over a period of no more than six months) or on a time-basis (a limited amount of projects running at any given moment). They might include a consulting service in addition to our software license, so that both terminate together.
4.2 The type of license you purchase will be stated when you subscribe. It shall start from the day you received your license details by email. In project-based license, your license expires once decisions are made. In time-based license, you won’t be able to launch new questions in the last 14 days of your subscription.
4.3 Once your license expires, we reserve the right to remove your website from the internet, delete its data or suspend it until a new license is purchased. Users will not be able to access your website. You can launch a new website at any stage by buying a new subscription.

When you buy a license with consulting services, we will bill 50% when you log in and 50% when insights are submitted to you. We expect payments within thirty (30) days after an invoice is sent. Fees are non-refundable unless required by law.
4.5 In the event that you fail to make the payment due after the thirty (30) day notice period, Insights.US has the right to block access to your website. We reserve the right to also inform your users that the website is suspended due to a payment issue.
4.6 In the event that you ask to terminate our services we will not refund payments already made. We will adopt any future charges and remove your website. If you send us an explicit request, we will also delete your data forever. Your obligations under our terms & policies DO NOT expire after you terminate our services.
5.1 You own the full rights for all contents created in your website, and Insights owns the full rights for the website itself. All things that were created by owners, administrators or participants can be used, copied, replicated and published by you in any forum and for any purpose. You grant Insights a license to use them for the purposes defined in the Terms of Use, our Privacy Policy and this agreement.
5.2 The website is licensed, and not sold, to you.

5.4 In PRIVATE WEBSITES, we will never share your contents, but we will generate aggregative data on the number of users, projects, actions and impact that is based on the contents. We might publish this data without revealing its source.

Please email bugs@insights.us if you find any error, bug or failure, and we will do our best to fix it within one business day, especially if your report concerns one of the key functions required to deliver the service. We might provide you with a fix, patch or workaround, or we might ask you to wait for our next version.
6.2 SOFTWARE WARRANTY. Having stated our commitment, no provision in this agreement shall imply that we provide any warranty to your website. We cannot guarantee that your website will always function, that there will be no bugs, that every error will be fixed, that users will do tasks or that you will get significant insights.
6.3 “AS IS” RULE. Our software is provided on an “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE” basis, and Insights does not make any warranties, express or implied, that the website will meet your requirement or that it will be uninterrupted or error free. You acknowledge and agree that we can also not be responsible and cannot control any passing or transmission of information via the internet.
6.4 SERVICE WARRANTY. When you buy our service, one of our partners will work with you. However, we cannot guarantee that the insights curated by our partner will satisfy you or that the advice you get will be effective or useful for you. Aside from sending you the insights, we cannot warranty for your success.
6.5 FUTURE FEATURES. We are keen to get better! Please share with us on info@insights.us any advice you have on how our software can be improved.
7.1 BY SITE OWNER. You agree to defend Insights and its affiliates against any third party claim arising from your use of the software if the claim concerns any violation of our terms & policies, whether this violation was committed or not. You will indemnify and compensate Insights for any damage, loss or expense incurred in relation to such claims, including but not limited to attorney’s fees.
7.2 BY INSIGHTS. Insights agrees to defend you against any third party claim that our services infringes copyrights or patent rights of others, and will pay any cost arising out of such a claim, provided we are given notice, assistance and sole authority to defend or settle such a claim. We share no liability if you violated our terms & policies or if the claim is not directly related to our website.
7.3 PROCEDURES. Both parties will provide prompt and early notice once the need for indemnification is starting to materialize. Parties will make all necessary effort to defend the claim. The indemnifying party will have full authority over the defense, unless the other party joins the defense at its own expense or the other party is required to admit liability or make any payment as part of a settlement.
8.1 PROPER USE. We expect you and the users on your website to use our software and services properly and reasonably, for the purposes defined in our terms & policies. If we believe in good faith that Insights is being exploited or users are being manipulated, we will ask you as Site Owner for clarifications in fifteen (15) days and, after considering your reply, might suspend or terminate one or more of our services.
8.2 PUBLIC INFORMATION. You hereby declare that you have read and understood our privacy policy and terms of use; that you are aware that information cannot be fully protected; and that posting on the website is a point of “No Return”. You also understand that every user can share contents with others, even in private websites, and that public websites are totally open for anyone to see.
8.3 THIRD PARTY SOFTWARE. We may integrate software that was licensed from third parties, which may include open source software. Such software is subject to other terms and conditions. To the extent of any conflict between the terms, the Third Party Terms shall prevail in connection with the related software. We do not and cannot make any warranty or indemnity with respect to this software.
8.4 HOSTING OUR SERVERS. As explained in our Privacy Policy, we host our data on Microsoft Azure servers. However, you are responsible to follow any other privacy laws and regulations in your country. You can always ask to install our service on your own servers, for an additional cost.
8.5 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. Under no circumstances shall Insights or its partners, licensors, employees, agents, owners or any other affiliates be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential or exemplary damages arising from the use of our software, including loss of data or business. We are also not liable for any loss of data, business, revenues or goodwill, or for any damage resulting from having unauthorized access to our services. The aggregate liability of Insights and its affiliates under this agreement shall not exceed the amount you paid to us within the twelve (12) month period prior to the event resulting in our liability, assuming you haven’t violated our terms & policies.
8.6 US GOVERNMENT AGENCY. If you are a United States Government Agency, you agree that our software is a “commercial computer software”, pursuant to FAR 12.212 and/or DFARS 227.7202-3, as applicable. Your rights shall apply only to the specific agency and program for which our software is obtained. We will also not state or imply in our publications that you recommend or endorse Insights in any way, although we might show your name - as any other name - in our list of customers.
8.7 CONTRACTUAL RELATIONSHIPS. You acknowledge that your only engagement is with the Site Operator. This agreement does not create any contractual relationships between you and any of the affiliates, partners, licensors, owners or employees of the Site Operator. You will have no claims and no disputes with anyone except Insights.US.
8.8 SEVERABILITY. If any provision of our terms & policies is found to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of all other provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired, and a valid legal and enforceable provision of similar intent and economic impact shall be substituted.
Should you have any questions or concerns about this Subscribers Agreement, you may email service@insights.us, call +1 (202) 9993777 or send us a letter to 114 Yigal Alon Street (WeWork), Tel Aviv, Israel.
