Terms of Use

For the use of the PictureMyLife Journal

The following definitions are used in PictureMyLife:

Journal. The web app provided as a service by PictureMyLife, a digital, multimodal contact and communication journal. In the Journal, users can post messages, respond, create instructions, and promote communication in various ways, with the goal of supporting the Primary User. The Journal is the technical solution that enables communication between Invitees.

Primary User. The person for whom the Journal is created. A ‘child with many names’ – commonly referred to as user, client, participant, or student. We use the term “Primary User” to emphasize the importance of this person.

Formal Owner. If the Primary User is of legal age, they are also the Formal Owner of the content in the Journal. If the Primary User is a minor, the guardian, legal representative, or administrator is the Formal Owner of the content in the Journal. The Formal Owner does not necessarily have to be the same person as the Subscriber.

Subscriber. The person paying for the subscription and considered the customer in practical terms. This may be a legal entity, such as a school or organization offering residential or day care, a parent, or the Primary User themselves. A Subscriber who is not the Formal Owner must always obtain the Formal Owner’s permission to initiate a Journal.

Administrator. The Subscriber also acts as the Administrator of the Journal. The Administrator has the most extensive role in the Journal.

Invitees. Individuals invited to collaborate in the Journal, such as staff, family, close friends, and relatives. In these Terms of Use, the Subscriber, Formal Owner, and Primary User are also considered Invitees.
