We set out below the legal Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) under which you and those whose tests you administer (“you”) may use the BELBIN Online Account (“BELBIN Testing”). Please read these carefully. If you do not accept the Terms stated here, you will not be able to use BELBIN Testing. By indicating that you accept, you acknowledge that you have read and accepted the Terms. BELBIN reserve the right to revise the Terms at any time by updating this document. You should re‐read this document from time to time to review the Terms, because they are legally binding on you.
All use of the contents of BELBIN Testing including information, text, data, graphics, charts, Self Perception Inventory, Inventory Observer Assessments, Assessments Job Requirements, and Job Observations facilities, and other resource material (“the Material”) are the property of BELBIN and are protected by copyright, database, trade mark and other intellectual property rights. All trade names, trade marks, logos, devices, and other graphics contained on the secure BELBIN Online Account are the trade marks of BELBIN.
You may print copies of the Material as required for your own use in accordance with the BELBIN Testing procedure (but for no other purpose). You must retain all copyright and other proprietary notices contained in the Material when printing copies. You may not reproduce the Material for sale to a third party. The use of the Material on any other website is prohibited without the express permission of BELBIN.
You agree not to adapt, translate, modify, decompile, disassemble, or reverse engineer the Material and/or BELBIN Testing, or any software or computer programs used in connection with the Material and/or BELBIN Testing.
Except as expressly provided, nothing within any of the Material or BELBIN Testing shall be construed as conferring any licence under any of BELBIN’s or any third party’s intellectual property rights, whether by estoppel, implication, waiver, or otherwise.
Copyright in the text (not the layout or structure) of any reports, assessments, profiles and commentary (“Report”) generated by you shall belong to you, and is hereby assigned to you, but you grant to BELBIN the right and licence to use and copy the Report for its own marketing and statistical purposes, subject to use complying with the applicable data protection legislation.
BELBIN Testing is intended to provide general information and guidance only. BELBIN Testing and the Report it generates should never be the sole basis for determining suitability for employment. The Report given is produced by analysing an individual’s responses to selected questions and comparing results with a “norm base” of responses. The normed scores are integrated with peer feedback (where applicable) and BELBIN Testing uses these scores to trigger outputs on the feedback Report. The use you make of the Report is entirely up to you; BELBIN can in no way be liable to you or others as a result of any unfavourable reaction to this Report. Upon registering, you will receive an Account Code and Password. You are responsible for maintaining the security and confidentiality of these items. Failure to keep your account details safe could result in unauthorised access to personal data. BELBIN will not be liable for any breach of confidence, privacy or Data Protection issue which arises. Any Report created by BELBIN Testing will be accessible for three months. Thereafter the Report will be deleted, but can be re‐created by means of a facility within the Testing procedures. As an administrator it is your responsibility to add, modify and delete your own accounts. All BELBIN Testing data, web pages, software, Reports and associated Materials are held on a secure website to minimise breaches of security.
The BELBIN Online Account and its Material are provided on an “as is” basis and BELBIN makes no warranties of any kind.
