Terms of use
GENERAL TERMS AND DEFINITIONS
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) is an agreement between a Client and Knowledge Gate ApS (CVR: 40302549), a company incorporated under the laws of Denmark, (“Knowledge Gate”). Knowledge Gate provides services for its users to identify and engage: clients looking for information, or Professionals providing information regarding specific industries, markets, or similar.
“Client” means a legal entity seeking information about a certain industry, market, or similar.
“Professional” means an expert with knowledge of an industry, market, or similar.
“Services” means the services that Knowledge Gate offers its users on the Platform.
“Platform” is the tool for managing projects and scheduling interviews as offered by Knowledge Gate, currently provided on www.knowledgegategroup.com.
Clients and Professionals are collectively referred to as “Users” or “you”.
ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS
When you click [“Agree”] during the registration process for an account, either as a Client or as a Professional, you agree to the Terms below.
Knowledge Gate reserves the right to modify these Terms at any time in its sole discretion, and will notify you of any adverse changes 30 days in advance of such changes taking effect, by email and by posting the updated Terms on the website. Your continued use of the Platform or Services after notification of any changes to the Terms constitutes your agreement to the updated Terms.
If you do not agree to these Terms or any updated version of the Terms, you may not use the Platform or the Services.
THE SERVICES
The purpose of the Platform is solely to facilitate the connection and interaction (e.g. interviews) between Clients and Professionals. The interviews or other forms of information sharing are provided by the Professionals and not Knowledge Gate.
By using the Platform and the Services as a Client, you can create a new project, search for and schedule interactions with Professionals. As a Professional, you can review projects and manage interactions. Knowledge Gate merely provides the Platform for project managing and interactions. Knowledge Gate does not take part in the interaction between Professionals and Clients. However, Knowledge Gate offers a service where Knowledge Gate carries out the information collection on behalf of the Client and by interacting with the Professional. Specific terms apply when engaging in said service.
In order to use the Services, an account with Knowledge Gate is required.
KNOWLEDGE GATE WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY LIABILITY WHATSOEVER FOR ANY CLAIMS, DEMANDS OR DAMAGES, DIRECT OR INDIRECT, OF EVERY KIND AND NATURE, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THE PLATFORM AND THE SERVICES. FURTHER, YOU EXPRESSLY AGREE TO HOLD KNOWLEDGE GATE HARMLESS FOR ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DAMAGES THAT MAY ARISE FROM ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND ANY OTHER USER OF THE PLATFORM OR THE SERVICE.
ADDITIONAL TERMS OF SERVICE
When using the Services, either as a Client or as a Professional, additional terms (“Additional Terms”) will apply. You must accept the Additional Terms in order to fully use the Services. If there is any contradiction between these Terms and the Additional Terms, the Additional Terms shall take precedence. For example, as a Client you are required to agree to Additional Terms before you can engage with Professionals from our network.
The service provided by Knowledge Gate is hosted on a proprietary domain made available free of charge. However, the Additional Terms cover fee-based Services.
TERMINATION OF YOUR ACCOUNT
You may at any time terminate your use of the Platform and close your account with Knowledge Gate. These Terms will apply until your account has been closed. As a consequence of your termination, Knowledge Gate will delete all specific information that can be attributed to you (although for your convenience, information regarding your wish not to partake in any further interactions may be kept). To close your account, contact Knowledge Gate atinfo@knowledgegategroup.com.
