Terms of Use (Participants)
Applicable between WEPRENEURS
and event participants (“You”).
1. Introduction and Scope of
Service
When you register for an
event on the WEpreneurs platform, you agree to the Terms of Use described here.
If the event organizer provides additional terms and conditions, you agree to
those as well. If you do not agree to these terms, you may choose not to
register for or participate in events on this platform.
WEpreneurs provides the
technical infrastructure and matchmaking software for the platform. To use its
interactive features, you will need to create a user profile. These features
include submitting requests, viewing other participants' profiles and requests,
and engaging in networking or messaging.
During the registration
process, personal data will be collected and processed as described in the
sections below.
2. Data Protection and
Privacy
Your personal data will be
processed solely to deliver the services described in these Terms and in line
with our Privacy Policy. Please review the Privacy
Policy for details on what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights
under GDPR and PDPA.
You acknowledge that
WEpreneurs may process the data you provide, as well as usage data, in
aggregated and anonymized form ("Aggregate Data"). This data does not
identify individuals and is used only for internal analytics, service
improvements, or industry insight generation.
We implement appropriate
technical and organizational measures to prevent re-identification, in
compliance with applicable laws, including the General Data Protection
Regulation (GDPR) and Taiwan’s Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA).
Unless required by law or
strictly necessary to deliver the services, WEpreneurs will not share your
personally identifiable information without your explicit consent.
2.1 Visibility of Participant
Profiles
All WEpreneurs events are
private. Only users with a valid event access code from the organizer can enter
an event session.
Once inside, validated
participants may view other participants' profiles and requests to support
networking and matchmaking. Contact details such as email addresses and phone
numbers are not displayed by default.
If you have questions about
data visibility, please contact the event organizer or WEpreneurs.
2.2 Data Retention and
Deletion
We store your business matchmaking
records — including your submitted requests, resources received or offered, and
follow-up status — to help you manage interactions and track progress. These
records and your profile are retained while your account remains active.
You may view, update, or
delete your records at any time. You may also delete your account, which will
result in the permanent and irreversible deletion of all associated data and
your profile.
While your profile and all
associated data will be permanently deleted upon request, we retain a log of
your deletion time for auditing purposes, as outlined in our Privacy Policy.
2.3 Data Accuracy and Editing
You are responsible for
providing accurate data during registration. Your submitted information must
not violate any applicable laws or infringe upon the rights of others. You may
edit or update your profile data at any time through your user account.
3. Your Responsibilities
You agree to use the platform
only in accordance with these Terms and all applicable laws. You are solely
responsible for any content you publish on the website or platform.
You agree to indemnify and
hold harmless WEpreneurs and the event organizer against any loss, damages, or
liabilities — including legal, administrative, or technical costs — resulting
from misuse or violation of these Terms.
4. Participant’s profiles
Participant profiles are
created and maintained by participants themselves. WEpreneurs is not obligated
to review or verify submitted content. If you violate these Terms or applicable
laws, WEpreneurs may temporarily or permanently restrict your access and remove
any unlawful content.
You are responsible for
protecting your account and preventing unauthorized access. All content you
publish must comply with legal, ethical, and community standards.
5. Copyright
The WEpreneurs platform and
its content — including images, graphics, documents, and other media — may be
protected under copyright law. You may not edit, copy, or publish such content
without written permission from WEpreneurs or the original copyright owner.
By submitting content to the
platform, you grant WEpreneurs and the event organizer a non-revocable right to
use it for the purposes outlined in these Terms. You remain responsible for
ensuring your content does not violate third-party rights and agree to
indemnify WEpreneurs and the organizer against any related claims.
6. Technical Information
6.1 Data Security
WEpreneurs implements
appropriate technical security measures, including firewalls and daily backups,
to protect your data. While we take all reasonable precautions, we cannot
guarantee complete protection from data loss and assume no liability in such
cases.
6.2 Service Availability
WEpreneurs does not guarantee
uninterrupted access to the platform or cloud services. We are not liable for
any service disruptions, system defects, or losses resulting from platform
unavailability or incorrect information.
7. Limitations of Liability
WEpreneurs does not endorse
or verify the content submitted by users or participants. We are not
responsible for the accuracy or quality of any material or for the outcome of
any event.
To the extent permitted by
law, WEpreneurs disclaims liability for any direct, indirect, incidental, or
consequential damages arising from the use of the platform or event
participation — including service interruption, lost profits, lost
opportunities, or data loss — even if we have been advised of such
possibilities.
8. Breach of Terms
If you breach these Terms,
WEpreneurs reserves the right to delete your account, content, and related data
without prior notice.
9. Changes to Terms
WEpreneurs may modify these
Terms from time to time at its discretion. Users will be notified in advance of
significant changes through the platform or website. Changes will only take
effect once accepted during your next login.
10. Governing Law and

These Terms are governed by the laws of Taiwan. The exclusive place of jurisdiction for any dispute shall be Taipei, Taiwan.
