Insightful (the “Service”) is a unique piece of software used globally by businesses. To maintain a superior level of service, security, and legality, we need you (the “Client”) to follow this Acceptable Use Policy (the “Policy”). If you choose not to follow the rules outlined in this Policy and in our Terms of Use, we may suspend or terminate your service.

The Policy sets out Clients' responsibilities when using our Service and confirms the steps we may take to ensure and monitor compliance with this Policy.

1. Lawful Use

  • Clients must ensure that any use of our Service is legal and it is their sole responsibility to determine what constitutes legal use in their particular jurisdiction. Although we can provide general informational guidelines, we are not a law firm, so your dependence on any information provided by us is at your own risk. Please seek the advice of a lawyer.
  • All Clients agree they will not use, attempt to use or allow the Service to be used for any illegal or malicious purpose. Every Client is responsible for their use of our Service, network and the operation of any systems or applications accessed or used with our Service. Clients are responsible for any content cached, sent, accessed or shared on or via our Service and systems.
  • Any action that endangers any person or risks endangering or compromising the security or successful operation of our network, or any of our systems or equipment (or the network, systems or equipment of our suppliers), may mean access to the Service will be restricted, suspended or terminated.
  • When using the Service, we may require users to act in accordance with rules imposed by a third party from which you access content. In a situation that a supplier or third party provider considers one of our Clients is in breach of this Policy, they may require we prevent the relevant Client continuing to breach this Policy.
  • The law requires us to comply with law enforcement or other lawful requests at any time without notice to Clients.

2. Permitted Actions

  • Installing Insightful on a computer that you own. For example your own personal computer or a child’s device or computer that you own.
  • Installing Insightful on a computer or gadget that you do not own if the owner consents. It is your sole responsibility to determine what counts as legal use in your particular jurisdiction. Please seek the advice of a lawyer.
  • Installing Insightful on your school’s owned computers or gadgets, where you or your school has full legal, administrative rights. Students are not allowed to install Insightful on their school’s devices without permission from staff or teachers.
