Terms of use

GitHub Skolpunkten ("the service") is provided by Skolpunkten and is used by schools to hand out programming projects as repos in the school's GitHub organization. These terms apply to everyone who signs in. The agreement for the service itself, including the data processing agreement, is made between the school and Skolpunkten.

1. Account and sign-in

You sign in with your GitHub account, which is governed by GitHub's own terms. Teacher access is granted by us at the school's request. You are responsible for not letting anyone else use your account.

2. Use

The service may only be used for teaching and according to the school's rules. You may not try to access other people's classes, repos or data, disrupt the service, or use it to spread harmful or illegal content.

3. Repos and content

Repos are created in the school's GitHub organization and are controlled by the school. What students write in their repos belongs to the student and the school according to the school's rules — not to Skolpunkten. If a teacher deletes a class or project in GitHub Skolpunkten, the repos remain on GitHub.

4. Availability and liability

We aim to keep the service available and working, but cannot guarantee that it always is. The service depends on GitHub, and outages at GitHub also affect GitHub Skolpunkten. Our liability is governed by the agreement with the school.

5. Personal data

How personal data is processed is described in the privacy policy.

6. Changes

We may update these terms, for example when the service gets new features. The date at the top shows when they were last changed. We notify connected schools of major changes.
