Priciples concerning the public
When we are presenting the professional articles of our content partners, we try to refer to the authors irrespective of the actual copyright. Regarding this as a common interest, we also check and update the autor data we receive from our content partners and change them, if we obtain newer data.
In that we see a very high advantage for our users as well as for the authors themselves, because it is just this data- and information build-up that helps us developing our ASK® expert-database.
Authors can disagree with this principle by sending a mail to info@ask-eu.de and will then be removed from the expert-search-function. However they will stay in the database insofar they are listed as autors of a content partner. Possibilities to contact them will be disabled.
Communication inside the community
We regard it as common interest of the ASK® Community to provide users with the possibility to contact authors and experts respectively. Communication will take place on the personal pages of the author on the ASK® plattform itself to ensure not to pass on any e-mail-adresses. If someone contacts an autor or expert, the recipient will receive a standarsized message "
„Post im Profil“. After login the author/expert can handle this message on his personal page.
In this way experts from science and experience that are very busy can delegate this process without having to give employees an access to the personal e-mail-account.
The e-mail-adress will be used for this message. It will as well be used to send newsletters or auhor notification (concerning important changes) and author documents (concerning new articles). All of these services can be controlled, ordered, cancelled or countermanded by the author at any time. For a start this will be possible through sending a demand to the operating company (send an e-mail to info@ask-eu.de).
In the medium term authors/experts will be able to choose the depth and the amount of communication themselves.
