Terms of Service for http://web.humanityy.com

Introductory explanations

The present terms of use only apply to the sub-domain web.humanityy.com, of the site www.humanityy.com.  Please note that the site blog.humanityy.com is the blog of the organisation Humanityy, and the sub-domain web.humanityy.com includes the search engine proposed by the organisation.  This search engine is independent of the rest of the site and is subject to the legal notices and terms of use provided later.  It is under no circumstances subject to the legal notices and terms of use of the blog or of any sub-domain subsequently created, which will always have their own legal notices and terms of use.

 Terms of use for the search engine Humanityy, available at the address http://web.humanityy.com/

ANY INTERNET USER WISHING TO USE THE HUMANITYY SEARCH ENGINE MUST FIRST ACCEPT THE PRESENT TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF USE.

THESE TERMS OF USE MAY BE MODIFIED WITHOUT NOTICE OR WRITTEN NOTIFICATION. ON THE OTHER HAND, ANY MODIFICATION TO THE PRESENT TERMS OF USE SHALL BE ANNOUNCED ON THE HUMANITYY SEARCH ENGINE HOME PAGE.  THE NEW VERSION WILL BE MADE AVAILABLE BY A HYPERTEXTE LINK SO THAT THE USER CAN FAMILIARISE THEMSELVES WITH IT EASILY.  IF THE USER DOES NOT ACCEPT THE NEW CONDITIONS THEY SHOULD THEREFORE STOP USING THE SEARCH ENGINE.

1.      Introduction of the search engine and its objectives

The Humanityy search engine is a “charitable” search engine.  It allows the user to choose an organisation that they wish to support.  This user may then search in the index of the Google database thanks to the Humanityy engine.  The results pages that are produced contain adverts that the user may click on if it interests them.  Thanks to the Google AdSense system, this click generates a small amount of money that is transferred directly to Humanityy.  Humanityy then transfers the funds collected in this way, almost entirely (once the operational cost is deducted) to the organisation designated by the user.  This system allows the user to carry out searches on a search engine whilst generating revenue for the organisation of their choice.

2. Choice of organisation and eligibility of suggested organisations.

The organisations that users can support are suggested in a list.  The suggested organisations have been chosen by Humanityy.  Other organisations may be suggested by users but ultimately only Humanityy can decide whether to accept or reject the organisation.

Eligible organisations are nonprofit organisations under the 1901 French law, which lead concrete and practical action in the field of humanitarian work, ecology and / or animal protection.  In contrast, organisations that only focus on providing information or raising awareness are not eligible.

Users who suggest an organisation that is not on the list will receive an email informing them of the decision to integrate the organisation, or the motives for rejection if not.  This is an obligation to inform only, and the motives for rejection cannot be contested.

Humanityy is listed in the organisations that are suggested for search engine users.  Effectively, Humanityy transfers all the revenue generated by the search engine to the organisations chosen by the users, and can claim revenue generated by search engine users who support it in the same way as the other organisations.

3. Rules concerning the generation and redistribution of revenue.

The Humanityy search engine is available to the public thanks to Google Custom Search and Google AdSense.  Google Custom Search allows the Google search bar to be integrated into another internet site and suggests advertisements on the results pages via the Google AdSense programme.  Google AdSense allows advertising space to be made available on an internet site.  When an internet user clicks on one of the advertisements shown in the advertising space the person who made the advertising space available generates a small sum of money.

In this way when someone uses the Humanityy search engine, the adverts appear in the advertising space on the results pages.  The sums generated in this way are transferred to the organistion Humanityy.  However the sums are not all equal as they differ depending on the advert that was clicked by the user.  Therefore it is not possible to redistribute the exact sum of money generated by the clicks.  With a view towards equality, the amounts are not redistributed in relation to their intrinsic value of the click, and each research generates a fixed amount which is 0.0015 euros exactly.  If the average revenue generated per search reaches above 0.0015 euros, Humanityy reserves the right to conserve the extra revenue to compensate for potential losses due to a potential decrease in the average revenue generated per click.  Indeed, the revenue generated by clicks varies slightly and the system of compensation previously described can only be used to ensure equality in the transfers to organisations with an average revenue of 0.0015 euros per click.

Conversely, Humanityy wishes to respect the conditions of use of the services Google AdSense, which for example forbids users to click on adverts in order to generate revenue.  The charitable nature of the search engine encourages users to do their searches on this engine rather than any other.  However, under no circumstances does Humanityy encourage the internet users to click on the adverts suggested in the results pages.  Humanityy only describes the process of fundraising for the organisations.

As a search engine user we ask that you only click on the adverts that interest you and not click with the sole aim of supporting Humanityy and / or your organisation.

 

 

For each organization, funds can only be transfered once in every 12 months rolling time. To receive the first money transfer, the organization must have been registered in our database for at least 12 months (where date of form submission is taken into account)

To receive the money transfer, each organization must produce its bank account details, with the name and adress  of the organization. 

 

4. Donations to the organisation Humanityy may be made on this site

The search engine site Humanityy suggests a “make a donation” button which is independent of the support system linked to the engine.  In effect Humanityy transfers all the revenues generated via the Humanityy search engine to the organisations supported by users.  In order to obtain the funds required to develop our actions, particularly the creation of a social network linked to environmental and humanitarian action or even the management of the blog, it is possible to make a donation directly from the site.

5. Potential disputes and competent jurisdiction

Potential disputes linked to the use of the Humanityy search engine, at the address is web.humanityy.com, are subject to French law and will be presented before French jurisdiction.  The court of competent jurisdiction for all disputes of the above site is the Tribunal de Grande Instance de Toulouse.

However, Humanityy asks that all search engine users to contact us before any summons so that an amicable solution may be found between the parties concerned.
