You understand that all information, data, text, software, music, sound, photographs, graphics, video, messages, tags, or other materials ("Content"), whether publicly posted or privately transmitted, are the sole responsibility of the person from whom such Content originated.

You agree that IMS has no responsibility or liability for the deletion or failure to store any Content, messages and other communications or other materials or Content maintained or transmitted by the Service.

LTI Advantage Reference Implementation and LTI Insights PRIVACY POLICY

In addition to the IMS Global Privacy Policy, LTI Advantage Reference Implementation and LTI Insights allows for the uploading of files containing institutional data.

You are responsible for not submitting personally identifiable information, confidential information or any information you do not want publicly displayed or accessed. Uploaded data is stored and made available publicly.

The Terms and the relationship between you and IMS shall be governed by the laws of the State of Massachusetts without regard to its conflict of law provisions. You and IMS agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located within the city of Boston, Massachusetts. The failure of IMS to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of the Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties' intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of the Terms remain in full force and effect. The section titles in the Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect.

AMENDMENTS

These Terms are subject to occasional revision, and if we make any substantial changes, we may notify you by sending you an e-mail to the last e-mail address you provided to us (if any) and/or by prominently posting notice of the changes on our site. Any changes to these Terms will be effective no later than thirty (30) calendar days following our posting of notice of the changes on our Site. Continued use of our Service following notice of such changes shall indicate your acknowledgement of such changes and agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of such changes.
