The Terms apply to the users of HPass (“Users”), and the information they provide to the Platform (“Submissions”). Users may be individuals who may carry out work or volunteer in humanitarian contexts (“Individuals”); or agents of: Humanitarian Organisations operating in humanitarian contexts (“Humanitarian Organisations”), or learning and assessment providers which create and issue badges (“Providers”).
