ARTICLE 1 - FUNCTIONING OF THE PLATFORM
The Platform allows Organizers to configure information collection processes (hereinafter, the "Process"), from Users, these Processes are likely to include the following steps:
For example: the implementation of a Platform and a Process allowing the collection of information within the framework of a call for projects requesting information on the Users and the deposit of documents of any nature necessary for the appreciation of the Users' projects.
The Organizer has a Platform allowing him to create one or several Processes according to the offer he has subscribed to. This Platform can be proposed, depending on the offer subscribed to, as a white label to the Organizer, which means that the Organizer has the possibility :
Under these conditions, the User may not realize that he is using a Platform made available to an Organizer by WIIN. These Terms and Conditions of Use are intended, among other things, to explain the nature of the Platform and the relationship between the Organizer, the User and WIIN.
To access and respond to the Process on the Platform, the User must, in some cases, create a personal account by providing the following information:
Once the User's personal account has been created, the User will be able to access the entire Process configured by the Organizer. When the User logs in for the first time, he/she will receive a confirmation e-mail in his/her e-mail inbox. After validation of this email, the User's account will be activated and the User will be able to access the Platform's Processes.
WIIN is not responsible for the proper delivery of emails sent to Users. Users must ensure that they have correctly filled in their email address and must check their so-called "junk or spam" emails. In the event that an email is received as "junk or spam", the User must configure their email inbox and make every effort to ensure that emails sent from the Platform are delivered.
An email sent from the Platform may take up to fifteen (15) minutes to arrive in the User's inbox.
The email address provided and the password allow the User to reconnect to the Platform after having been disconnected from a previous session.
The User's password is strictly personal and must not be shared with third parties under any circumstances. In general, the User must personally take care to keep his information confidential and not to disclose or communicate it.
In case of loss of access, the User may request a "forgotten password" by entering his email address in the connection step.
In case of deactivated account, blocked access or deleted account, the User should contact the Organizer to clarify the situation. WIIN is in no way responsible for the deactivation, blocking or deletion of a User account in the Platform of an Organizer.
However, WIIN would like to inform Users and Organizers that each Platform is partitioned, unique and has a unique User account base. Therefore, if a User creates an account on the Platform of an Organizer, his account will not allow him to connect to the Platform of another Organizer. The User will then have to create a new account.
In the event of a breach in the security of his personal information, the User must immediately contact the Organizer who will provide him with new identifiers.
Access to the Platform is free of charge, however, once the User's account has been created and depending on the Process designed by the Organizer, the latter may request one or more payment steps in its Information Collection Process. The payment methods are specific to the Organizer, WIIN can in no way be held responsible for any problem relating to the payment of a User in the context of a Process initiated by an Organizer. Only the Organizer is responsible for requesting a payment from a User.
If you make a payment, you may be asked to provide certain information related to your purchase, including, without limitation, your credit card number, credit card expiration date and billing address. Thus, you represent and warrant that:
The Organizer reserves the right to refuse or cancel your payment at any time for any reason, without having to justify itself. WIIN reserves the right to refuse or cancel your payment if WIIN has any suspicion of fraud or unauthorized or illegal transaction.
We urge you to exercise caution and your own due diligence in conducting any transaction through the Platform.
When a User responds to a Process, after the User's account has been created and the User has begun to fill in information online, the User will be assigned a unique number. This unique response number will be communicated to the User who must keep it. This unique number may allow the User to confirm that he/she is the originator of information collected in a Process. The Organizer also has the unique response number(s) of each User.
In addition, User shall not participate in any activity, post content, enter information, or register or use a URL for the purpose of establishing content that represents or includes any material that:
