-
The learners can be from within the Creators’ organisation or external to it.

Gamoteca enables the connection between learners through multiplayer Game capabilities for the purpose of sharing user-generated content between learners.
-
Gamoteca’s role in this process is solely to provide the technology and platform to enable the creation and access of the Games.
-
Participation in Games involves a direct relationship between a Creator and a Player. Technovatio is not a party to any agreements between Creators and learners with respect to learning experiences, and does not have control over and disclaims any and all liability for the content, quality, timing, legality, failure to provide, or any other aspect whatsoever of any experiences created by Creators.
-
Each Creator represents and warrants that the content of any learning experience will not infringe the copyright or other intellectual property rights of any third party.
-
Each Creator agrees to indemnify Gamoteca in respect of any claims, costs, losses, or liabilities incurred or suffered to third parties as a result of the Creator’s use of the Gamoteca platform, including but not limited to in respect of any alleged intellectual property infringement.

-
-
For the avoidance of doubt, Creators may also promote or advertise their Public learning experiences through any Channels, in addition to making them available through the Marketplace; provided that all Games are subject to prior approval by Technovatio.

For each TECA you create, you must specify in reasonable detail: (1) requirements for a Player to participate in and complete the Game; (2) instructions sufficient for a Player to participate in and complete the TECA; and (3) comply with all rules and guidelines set by Gamoteca for TECA creation.

Creators have the right, at any time and in their sole discretion, and subject to these Terms, to approve or reject enrollment by a Player in their Game. You agree to use your best efforts to continuously and diligently monitor and supervise learners’ participation in and completion of the TECAs (including by responding to learners’ inquiries).
-
We grant you limited permission to use the Gamoteca name solely to denote the existence of these Terms, in connection with the advertising and promotion of the TECA(s) you make available through Gamoteca; provided that we must approve your use of the Gamoteca name in each instance.
(c) Relationship of the Parties. Creators are not employees, agents or contractors of Technovatio, nor are they otherwise in a direct or indirect working or service provider relationship with Technovatio.
