Each user is required to assign themselves to a school or educational establishment by selecting the appropriate establishment during the registration process. If you are a teacher, school governor or other education professional (a "Teaching User") then on registration, you will be asked for a user name and password ("ID"). You should not pass these details to anyone else. Pupils and other users who are not Teaching Users ("Non-Teaching Users") will also be asked to set up accounts, they should nominate their own usernames and password. Non-Teaching Users will not be able to register without an invitation code from a Teaching User who is registered for the school with which the Non-Teaching User wishes to be registered. As a Teaching User you are responsible for all use of the Product by Non-Teaching Users to whom you give an invitation code, and for preventing unauthorised use of your ID. You must ensure that your Users comply with the terms of this Agreement and all terms of use applicable to the Site. By joining the Pod and giving us your email address, you are agreeing to the Pod contacting you about the Pod and related campaigns. If you wish to stop receiving these emails, please email us at contact_us@jointhepod.org and we will unsubscribe you.

1.4 If you believe there has been any breach of security such as the disclosure, theft or unauthorised use of your ID, you must notify EDF Energy immediately by emailing contact_us@jointhepod.org

1.5 If EDF Energy reasonably believes that your ID is being used in any way which is not permitted by these terms, EDF Energy reserves the right to cancel access rights immediately and to block access from your ID. If EDF Energy cancels your access rights and/or blocks your ID then it will inform you of the same.

If you choose to make it available to all site visitors you agree, by submitting your contribution, to grant EDF Energy a perpetual, royalty-free, non-exclusive, sub-licensable right to use, reproduce, modify and distribute your contribution worldwide in any media. If you do not want to grant EDF Energy the rights set out above, please do not select 'make my content available to all site users' when you upload your contribution to the Product.

4.2 Involvement of Children in your User Generated Content ("UGC")

Children can be involved in UGC in a number of ways and you as the producer of the UGC must have due regard to their welfare at all times. Particular care should be taken to avoid causing any distress or alarm to any children involved in your UGC.

You must consider carefully the impact of the UGC on the child involved - both in the way it is made, and any possible impact it may have when made available to the public. This is regardless of obtaining parental consent.

You should consider the nature of the internet in respect of your UGC. In particular you should remember that:

• (i) your UGC may be copied onto other computers or software;
• (ii) www.jointhepod.org may be linked by various electronic means to numerous other websites around the world;
• (iii) there is no way of monitoring or controlling the numerous websites on which your UGC may appear;
• (iv) your UGC can be copied or transmitted electronically to anywhere in the world; and
• (v) even if you withdraw your UGC it may still be accessible via the internet through other means

4.3 Child Protection

The protection of children is of paramount importance to EDF Energy. When producing UGC, obtain parental consent for ALL children. It is your responsibility to obtain the signed consent of the parent or guardian of any children featured or taking part in your UGC. Consent must be obtained prior to the inclusion of any child and you must keep a copy of the signed consent. You must obtain consent from the child as well as the parent. It is your responsibility to obtain consent from the child and the child's refusal to take part should not be overridden in any circumstances. Throughout the process of making your UGC you should always check that a child remains willing to participate. You must ensure that consent is informed. This will involve your explaining to the child and the child's parent why the UGC is being created, and bringing points (i) to (v) of Clause 4.2 to their attention prior to their consents being granted.

When obtaining consent from children and parents or guardians it is your responsibility to ensure they have fully understood what they are giving consent to. Do not assume that the child, parent or guardian will fully appreciate the consequences of giving consent. You must make it clear to them: the nature of the UGC, its purpose, where it is likely to be used or distributed and how long for what kind of contribution theirs will be, for example, live, pre-recorded, interview, discussion, edited, quote etc., whether the UGC will be edited. You are reminded of the rights granted to us in respect of your UGC under clause 4.1 of these terms, and you should bring these to the attention of the child and its parents prior to their consents being granted.

4.4 Children at risk

In every school there will almost certainly be children at risk. Children at risk include children and their families who are in hiding, under police protection, whose lives may be at threat, children in the care of social services, children involved in active legal proceedings, or any other children whose personal or family health, safety, privacy or welfare could be adversely affected by their inclusion in any UGC. It is your responsibility to identify who and where these children are. Any pupil who, or whose family, may be adversely affected by being seen or identified or referred to must be completely excluded and must not take part in any UGC you submit. It is your responsibility to ensure this. When filming anywhere in a school you must ensure that any at risk pupils have been excluded from filming or have been absented from class. Also check the classroom for any means or evidence of identifying them, e.g. pupil names on white board, wall mounted class work, art pieces, behaviour charts, etc.

4.5 Child Identification & Anonymity

No child, (not just those at risk), should be identified by both first (christian) and second (family) names in any way (whether on screen, in audio, in writing or otherwise). This applies to names spoken in shot and names heard out of shot. This combination of the full name, with the name of the school, might make a pupil vulnerable to an adult wishing to claim acquaintance with him or her. Beware of giving away a child's identity via a "jigsaw" effect of information in the UGC.

4.6 Indecent Images of Children

In the UK it is a serious offence under the Protection of Children Act 1978 for a person to take, or permit to be taken, any indecent photograph of a child, to distribute or show such indecent photographs, to have in his possession such indecent photographs, with a view to their being distributed or shown by himself or others. What is 'indecent' is a matter for the Court. Nudity is not required to find a photo of a child to be indecent. Particular consideration should be given to whether any UGC showing children in states of undress or in particular attire or poses could be interpreted as 'indecent', for example, in PE and drama classes. If in any doubt do not include it in the UGC. Publication of an indecent picture of a child under 16 is an offence under the Protection of Children Act 1978. You are responsible for ensuring that no indecent images of children are included in any UGC you submit.

4.7 Use of Third Party Intellectual Property in UGC

You are responsible for ensuring that UGC you submit is not subject to the intellectual property rights (including, without limitation, copy and design rights) of any third party, or, if it is, that you have obtained all necessary rights from any such third party to permit you and EDF Energy to use that intellectual property for all purposes. You agree to fully indemnify EDF Energy against all costs, damages, expenses and/or losses which it incurs as a result of any claim or potential claim being brought against EDF Energy by a third party which is based on any infringement or alleged infringement of its intellectual property rights.

4.8 Confidentiality and Data Protection

You are responsible for ensuring that your submission of UGC, and EDF Energy's use of your UGC in relation to the Product, does not breach any third party's rights under the Data Protection Act 1998 nor breach any obligations of confidentiality owed to any third party, and you agree to fully indemnify EDF Energy against all costs, damages, expenses and/or losses which it incurs as a result of any claim or potential claim being brought against EDF Energy by a third party which is based on such a breach.

5. Warranties and Indemnities

5.1 EDF Energy will use its reasonable skill in making the Product available to you. However, because of the number of sources from which EDF Energy obtains the Content and because of the nature of the Internet and computer software and hardware, errors and omissions do occur and EDF Energy does not give any warranties in respect of the Product. In particular, you should not take the accuracy of the information for granted and EDF Energy makes no warranty that the Product is free from infection by viruses or anything else that has contaminating or destructive properties. All implied warranties are excluded from this Agreement to the extent that they may be excluded as a matter of law.

5.2 You shall indemnify, defend and hold EDF Energy, its agents, affiliates, and licensors harmless from any claim, costs, losses, damages, liabilities, judgments and expenses (including legal costs), arising out of or in connection with any claim, action or proceeding (any and all of which are "Claims") arising out of your use of the Product in any manner that breaches these Terms, the Privacy Policy and/or the Blog and Gallery Posting Rules or otherwise arising out of content contributed by you and not by EDF Energy.

6. Limitation of Liability

6.1 EDF Energy will not be liable for any loss you suffer as a result of a breach of these Terms or unavailability of the Product except those losses which are a direct and foreseeable result of the breach. EDF Energy will not be responsible for indirect or consequential losses which are incurred as a result of any breach (such as, without limitation, loss of profits or loss of data).

6.2 Notwithstanding the above provisions of this clause 6, EDF Energy's liability will not be limited in the case of death or personal injury directly caused by EDF Energy's negligence.

12. Blog Posting Rules

By posting and/or approving content (including, without limitation, Blogs and Images) for inclusion within this section of the Pod Website you agree that:

1. You are a teacher or other education professional and are responsible for supervising the pupils whose Blogs and/or Images you post/approve.
2. The Blogs and/or Images you post/approve have not been created by any person other than you or a pupil who you supervise.
3. You will fully review each Blog and each Image you post/approve prior to doing the same, and you confirm that each such Blog and/or Image:
   1. does not contain any content or language which may reasonably be considered unlawful, immoral or indecent, dishonest, offensive, derogatory or defamatory by any other users of the Pod website (such other users including (without limitation) other education professionals, other pupils (both from your school and other schools) of varying ages, and members of the general public);
   2. does not contain any content which is subject to any third party intellectual property rights (for example, any trademarks or trade names) unless you have obtained all necessary consents from the relevant third party in order to include the same within the Blog and/or Image. All such consents must be obtained in writing from the relevant third party and evidence of such consents must be provided to EDF Energy upon request.

   7. does not include any other content which could be used for unlawful or immoral purposes. For example, you must not include any bank details, passwords or codes, personal information, etc.
4. You are able to grant, and hereby grant, EDF Energy an irrevocable, perpetual, sub-licensable, royalty free licence to use all Blogs and all Images for any lawful purposes whatsoever.
