In "The Security Jam,” the Security & Defence Agenda (SDA), with the help of IBM, is presenting topics to encourage collaboration and innovation that can be used to help strategic reflections in the security community. Since the primary goal is to have a free and open exchange of ideas in a "public commons" environment, we ask you to agree to the following rules so that everyone’s rights can be protected:
- All information you contribute to the Jam will be non-confidential within the context of the Jam. Participants are free to use and disclose that information within the Jam platform.
- The ideas presented in the Jam, and any underlying inventions that are disclosed, will be available for free use by others without royalties or restrictions. This "free license" does not apply to patents and patent applications that were filed prior to the submission of information.
- Ideas presented in the Jam represent the views of the individual, not necessarily the views of the organisation they work for, nor of the SDA, IBM, and supporting organisations.
- If you know of any pre-existing patents that may be relevant to your contribution, you will promptly inform the other participants.
- You will not provide any software code.
- You will not discuss how you and other business partners or suppliers conduct their businesses, and you agree not to provide any pricing, contract terms, output, or other information that could present any issues under any country’s antitrust or competition laws.
- If you are accepting these rules on behalf of a company or other entity as well as for yourself, you agree that you are authorized to do so.
- Personal attacks on others, posting personal information about others, profanity or other inappropriate language or behavior in the Security Jam is unacceptable. In addition, Participants must not post, mail or participate in provocative, heated discussions (flame mail).
SDA will use the personal information you provide to us solely for reasons of analysis of the Jam results. All provided data will remain anonymous in public reports. SDA will also share your personal information with IBM solely for purposes in connection with analyzing the post-Jam results.
With your permission, we may use your personal information gathered via the Security Jam to inform you of the SDA’s activities, reports and publications. You may unsubscribe from this information at any time.
The SDA will not sell, rent out or share your personal data with third parties outside the Jam project.
Supplemental Jam Rules for media/bloggers/analysts
Even though during the Jam, the SDA & IBM encourage a free and open exchange of ideas in a "public commons" environment, this does not mean the Jam takes place in a public forum. The Jam is hosted on a protected platform behind a firewall. It is open only to those who have been invited.
It is important that you respect the privacy of all Jam participants. We ask that you agree to the Jam Rules and the following supplemental Rules:
- You will provide your full name, email, and company/employer and identify yourself as a journalist, industry analyst or blogger during the Jam.
- You will not use, report, reference, or otherwise make public under any circumstance the names of, or any information that could be used to identify, any individual and/or company participating in the Jam without written consent from the individual or company and the organisers.
- You will not record, broadcast and/or reproduce exact content (i.e. screen grabs) or images from the Jam without written consent from SDA.
- Provided you follow these and the other Jam Rules, you are permitted to report on, share and/or publish personal accounts of your own experiences and provide general characterizations or an overview of the ideas and exchanges before, during or after the Jam.
- SDA reserves the right to remove your access to the Jam in their sole discretion.
By clicking "I agree," you are confirming that you are 18 years of age or older and have read and agree to these rules.
Thank you!
