Your Tanzania Tech account

If you use multiple logins to disrupt the community or harass other users, action may be taken against all your accounts. All accounts must be registered with a valid personal email address that you regularly use to receive emails.

Accounts registered using someone else’s email address or temporary email addresses may be closed without notice. We may require users to re-verify their accounts if we believe they have been using an incorrect email address.

Tanzania Tech reserves the right to close accounts if any user is found to be using IP addresses to attempt to use multiple Tanzania Tech accounts, if a non-Tanzanian user pretends to be a Tanzanian user, or if a user disrupts our services in any way.

Security

We strongly advise against sharing personal or anyone else’s sensitive information publicly in any Tanzanian tech community.

Legal Requirements

Do not submit or exchange any contribution that is defamatory or illegal in any way within the Tanzania Tech communities. This includes text, graphics, film clips, programs, and audio.

  • Contributions to Tanzanian tech communities that are intended to incite or promote illegal activities are strictly prohibited.
  • You agree to submit or exchange with Tanzania Tech communities only contributions that are your own original work. Do not infringe upon or violate the rights of Tanzania Tech or any other parties, including copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, privacy, publicity, or ownership rights.

If you violate these community guidelines

If you fail to follow these Community Guidelines (and/or any others specific to the relevant organization) while participating in Tanzania Tech communities, you will receive an email notifying you of the rejection or editing of your contribution.

The email will also serve as a warning that continued violations of these guidelines may result in action being taken against your account(s).

This action may include reviewing any contributions submitted by you before they are allowed on the website, temporarily or permanently suspending your ability to participate in specific areas or the entirety of Tanzania Tech communities.

If you submit or exchange offensive or unacceptable contributions to any Tanzania Tech communities or engage in disruptive behavior within Tanzania Tech or elsewhere, and Tanzania Tech considers the impact of such behavior to be significant and/or repeated, Tanzania Tech may use any available information to prevent further violations.

This may include notifying other parties, such as employers, schools, or email service providers, about the violation.

Tanzania Tech has the right to delete any contribution or take action against any Tanzania Tech account at any time for any reason.

Tanzania Tech does not guarantee a specific time, completion, or performance of the website or any information.

  • Loss of revenue or anticipated profits
  • Loss of business
  • Loss of opportunity
  • Loss of goodwill or reputation
  • Losses suffered by third parties or any indirect, special, or consequential loss or damage arising out of the use of Tanzania Tech, regardless of whether action is taken,

You acknowledge that it is your responsibility to use appropriate software and conduct virus checks (including anti-virus and other security checks) to satisfy your specific requirements for the accuracy of data input and output.

The failure or delay of Tanzania Tech to enforce or exercise any of these terms does not constitute a waiver of that right.

Tanzania Tech has taken precautions to ensure that Tanzania Tech apps and Tanzania Tech content are free from defects, errors, viruses, or disruptions, but Tanzania Tech does not guarantee that everything will function without issues.

Failure or delay by Tanzania Tech to exercise or enforce any right in these terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right.
