Unikum End User Agreement

You have been invited to use the Unikum.net internet service. Welcome!
You may have received the invitation from eg. your preschool, school, municipality, or you may have found Unikum by yourself.

The purpose of Unikum’s internet tools are to facilitate collaboration in schools. The tools also make it easier for schools to comply with school legislation, curricula, data protection regulation and other relevant legislation. To transfer between teachers, schools and municipalities. The Unikum.net service is run by Unikum – Net AB. Unikum’s Privacy Policy describes how personal data is handled in Unikum.

If you accept the conditions, you may start to use Unikum. If you do not agree to the conditions, you may not use Unikum.

Conditions

Below the conditions are described in more detail. When we use the word ”school”, we mean all school forms, including pre-school, elementary school, compulsory school, adult education, etc. For users who are minors or under 14 years if age, their guardians or the school providing access to Unikum are responsible for assuring that the user is following the conditions.

1. Secure handling of login credentials

To use Unikum, you need to log in. In many cases, the login takes place via the school’s or the municipality’s login system. This is why the school or municipality usually is responsible for the authentication system and for issuing login credentials. Sometimes two-factor authentication methods are used, and in other cases username and password is good enough. The login credentials you receive are personal. You are responsible for keeping any passwords and codes secret and for updating when necessary.

If your child or student have their own login, the child or student also needs to be informed on how to handle login securely.

What do I do if I suspect someone else has found out or otherwise compromised your, your childrens’, your students ́ or your staff’s passwords or credentials? You’ll need to make sure that this is corrected immediately, and that e g passwords are changed. If you use passwords issued by Unikum, users can themselves change their password. You can also ask a teacher or administrator to help you.
