Podpisane izjave, ki jih nisem prebral (primer Facebook)
02. februar 2010
Z uporabo najrazličnejših spletnih storitev (Gmail, Flickr, Facebook, Myspace, Twitter, itd...) se vsakodnevno srečujemo z izjavami o (ne)prevzemanju odgovornosti/sprejemljivosti oz. "disclaimer"-ji, kot temu pravijo v deželi "hemendeksa z jajci". Te izjave narekujejo pravice ter obveznosti uporabnikom in ponudnikom storitev oz. vsebujejo kup na videz nezanimivih reči, ki kar prosijo biti spregledane.
Če se ne spominjate, kdaj ste takšno izjavo prebrali nazadnje, ne razumete o čem je govora (er... pisanja) ali pa so vam tovrstne izjave predolgočasne, da bi jih brali - ste najverjetneje povsem normalni (nestrokovna ocena) in le običajno naivni :). Za potešitev mazohističnih kotičkov duše, morebitno korist ter boljšo predstavo o tem, "kaj vse zamujamo", bomo tokrat izpostavili in poskušali razumeti najbolj v-uč-padajoče točke ene izmed najpogosteje "podpisanih" izjav - social networking storitve Facebook. Ker Facebook najbrž uporabljate tudi sami, ste verjetno seznanjeni s podrobnostmi izjave, saj ste jo prebrali in podpisali že ob prvi uporabi storitve.
Primeri so običajno najbolj nazorni, ko so ekstremni, pretirani, zato bomo izjavo namenoma interpretirali v najbolj skrajni luči. Če služi kot džoker karta za (pravne) borbe najbolj v najbolj nezavidljivih razmerah, predvidevati najhujše morda ni tako nezaslišano. Prav ali ne, verjetno si bomo tako bolj in lažje zapomnili ter v prihodnje manj naivno oz. z dodatno merico slabe vesti (še vedno) avtomatično in brez branja pritrdili: "Yes, I Agree...". Morda, se bomo, ko v svoj spletni profil pripišemo še ime hišnega ljubljenčka, rojstni datum najljubšega kosa pohištva, in označimo prijatelja na "pijani" sliki, bolj zavedali da verjetno ne vemo, čemu se takrat "odrekamo" (morda kaki neizmerni ugodnosti).
Velja omeniti, da je primer s Facebooka najbrž precej običajen in da je izbran zgolj zaradi svoje razširjenosti. Večina "zapovedi" v izjavi je verjetno tudi dokaj samoumevnih, ...seveda, če se zavedate tehnologije potrebne za izvedbo takšnih storitev. Če ne, temu morda ni tako...
Poglejmo s čim smo se strinjali, ko smo pričeli z uporabo storitve:
- Da, strinjam se da o meni shranjujete podatke, ki vam jih posredujem sam ...ali pa tiste, ki jih o meni najdete sami (in morda ne vem, da jih posredujem). Na primer pogovore s prijatelji, nizi iskanj itd...
" ... When you visit Facebook you provide us with two types of information: personal information you knowingly choose to disclose that is collected by us and Web Site use information collected by us as you interact with our Web Site. ... "
"... When you use Facebook, you may set up your personal profile, form relationships, send messages, perform searches and queries, form groups, set up events, add applications, and transmit information through various channels. We collect this information so that we can provide you the service and offer personalized features. ..."
- V mojem imenu dopolnite vsebine saj sem morda na kaj „pozabil“. Recimo, to kar o meni pišejo časopisi...
"... Facebook may also collect information about you from other sources, such as newspapers, blogs, instant messaging services, and other users of the Facebook service through the operation of the service (e.g., photo tags) in order to provide you with more useful information and a more personalized experience.... "
"... We may use information about you that we collect from other sources, including but not limited to newspapers and Internet sources such as blogs, instant messaging services, Facebook Platform developers and other users of Facebook, to supplement your profile. ..."
- Nikar ne brišite starih/popravljenih podatkov, ki jih hranite o meni, čez sedem let vse prav pride.
"... When you update information, we usually keep a backup copy of the prior version for a reasonable period of time to enable reversion to the prior version of that information.... "
"... You understand and acknowledge that, even after removal, copies of User Content may remain viewable in cached and archived pages or if other Users have copied or stored your User Content...."
"... Removed information may persist in backup copies for a reasonable period of time but will not be generally available to members of Facebook ...."
"...Where you make use of the communication features of the service to share information with other individuals on Facebook, however, (e.g., sending a personal message to another Facebook user) you generally cannot remove such communications.... "
- Pazil bom kaj počnem - in vem, da bo ta vsebina morda predstavljena drugače kot sem to sam razumel oz. jo bo morda videl kdo, ki je nebi smel.
"... Therefore, we cannot and do not guarantee that User Content you post on the Site will not be viewed by unauthorized persons.... "
"... When you use Facebook, certain information you post or share with third parties (e.g., a friend or someone in your network), such as personal information, comments, messages, photos, videos, Marketplace listings or other information, may be shared with other users in accordance with the privacy settings you select. All such sharing of information is done at your own risk. Please keep in mind that if you disclose personal information in your profile or when posting comments, messages, photos, videos, Marketplace listings or other items, this information may become publicly available. ..."
- Razumem, da delujete pod „tujo komando“ in da je tako tudi z vsemi podatki in vsebino, ki vam jo posredujem.
"... By using Facebook, you are consenting to have your personal data transferred to and processed in the United States. We may be required to disclose user information pursuant to lawful requests, such as subpoenas or court orders, or in compliance with applicable laws...."
"... Additionally, we may share account or other information when we believe it is necessary to comply with law, to protect our interests or property, to prevent fraud or other illegal activity perpetrated through the Facebook service or using the Facebook name, or to prevent imminent bodily harm. This may include sharing information with other companies, lawyers, agents or government agencies. ..."
- Če še nisem polnoleten (in nad 13let), zame veljajo enaki pogoji, saj se vedno o vsebini pred objavo posvetujem s starši. Odgovornost je konec koncev definicija nepolnoletnosti.
"... We recommend that minors 13 years of age or older ask their parents for permission before sending any information about themselves to anyone over the Internet.... "
- Včasih, ko rečem „ne“ s tem mislim „da“, zato je sprejemljivo če občasno preslišite moje želje in nastavitve osebnega profila.
"... Generally, you may opt out of such emails from the Notifications page, though Facebook reserves the right to send you notices about your account even if you opt out of all voluntary email notifications...."
- Ko uporabljam katero izmed razširitvenih funkcij (beri: „luštkanih“ dodatkov, widgetov...), ki jih v sklopu storitev ponuja tretja oseba, se zavedam, da s tem podpisujem tudi izjavo, ki mi jo nalaga tretja oseba.
"... In addition, Platform Developers may require you to sign up to their own terms of service, privacy policies or other policies, which may give them additional rights or impose additional obligations on you, so please make sure to review these terms and policies carefully before using any Platform Application.... "
- Izjava o zasebnosti, ki jo podpisujem seveda velja le med mano in upraviteljem storitve Facebook, ne pa tudi za njegove partnerje (s katerimi sem konstantno v stiku)...
"... These third party advertisers may also download cookies to your computer, or use other technologies such as JavaScript and "web beacons" (also known as "1x1 gifs") to measure the effectiveness of their ads and to personalize advertising content. This privacy policy covers the use of cookies by Facebook and does not cover the use of cookies or other tracking technologies by any of its advertisers. ... "
- Ko spremenite pravila, predvidevajte da se s spremembami strinjam.
"...We reserve the right to change our Privacy Policy and our Terms of Use at any time. Non-material changes and clarifications will take effect immediately, and material changes will take effect within 30 days of their posting on this site...."
- Dovolim, da po lastni presoji uporabljate vso vsebino, ki jo posredujem prek vaše storitve.
"... For content that is covered by intellectual property rights, like photos and videos ("IP content"), you specifically give us the following permission, subject to your privacy and application settings: you grant us a non-exclusive, transferable, sub-licensable, royalty-free, worldwide license to use any IP content that you post on or in connection with Facebook ("IP License"). This IP License ends when you delete your IP content or your account unless your content has been shared with others, and they have not deleted it. ..."
"...When you delete IP content, it is deleted in a manner similar to emptying the recycle bin on a computer. However, you understand that removed content may persist in backup copies for a reasonable period of time (but will not be available to others)...."
- Če je na mizi, je zato, da se vzame... Če kaj svetujem ali pomagam, ne pričakujem, da se mi bo kdo za to zahvalil.
"... We always appreciate your feedback or other suggestions about Facebook, but you understand that we may use them without any obligation to compensate you for them (just as you have no obligation to offer them).... "
- Vse kar povem o sebi je res. Še posebej kontaktni podatki.
"... You will not provide any false personal information on Facebook, or create an account for anyone other than yourself without permission. ..."
"...You will keep your contact information accurate and up-to-date...."
- Razumem, da bo upravitelj občasno kakšno stvar prikazali malce prikrito, še posebej če je v igri denar.
"... You understand that we may not always identify paid services and communications as such. ..."
- Če bo šlo kdaj kaj narobe, se ne poznamo.
"... If anyone brings a claim against us related to your actions, content or information on Facebook, you will indemnify and hold us harmless from and against all damages, losses, and expenses of any kind (including reasonable legal fees and costs) related to such claim..."
- Vse s čimer se strinjam vedno pomeni še veliko več, kot si to lahko sam predstavljam.
"... By "use" we mean use, copy, publicly perform or display, distribute, modify, translate, and create derivative works of.... "
Zanimivo.
Če slepo verovanje čustveno obarvanim interpretacijam neznancev ni vaš stil, skočite na http://www.facebook.com/policy.php in http://www.facebook.com/terms.php, kjer boste našli komentirani izjavi in se poskusite v razumevanju tega, večkrat spregledanega, žanra pravne poezije.
