CLL Website Awards Program/Ethics

Aristotle (384-322 B.C.)

Epicurus (341-270 B.C.) and Epicurean Philosophy

The problem of general concepts, which are corresponding to single (monadic) predicates (like "red", "raven"), was one of the most controversial questions in the medieval philosophy. (These general concepts are often called also as universals, properties, attributes or qualities).

Ethics Pledge Program

The Declaration of Ethics, applying to this Award Program, is provided by
The Ethics Pledge Program.

AWARD IEP

The IEP - International Ethics Program was created on March first of 2008 with the objective of certifying award programs that have respect for ethics and copyright thus going far beyond the privacy of applicants.

Award Program Privacy

If an applicant obey the copyright and ethical rules of this Award Program and "Conceptanalysis, Language and Logic"-site and don't violate or infringe the rules and qualifications of sites which are granted their ratings and classifications to this site mentioned on Affiliations-page, any information about an applicant or application will not be distributed to the third party.

If above-mentioned circumstances are fulfilled, all information about an applicant and application remains only to knowledge of an applicant and Webmaster of this site.

The Award Program of this site also abide by the The Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) of 1998 even though I live in Finland:
"The Federal Trade Commission today issued the final rule to implement the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (COPPA). The main goal of the COPPA and the rule is to protect the privacy of children using the Internet. Publication of the rule means that, as of April 21, 2000, certain commercial Web sites must obtain parental consent before collecting, using, or disclosing personal information from children under 13."

Minimum age of an applicant of this Award Program is, however, 18 years, because I'm not collecting any information about the family of an applicant. Also, the applicant must be webmaster or/and owner of the candidate site.

See: 17 USC 107, Limitations on exclusive rights: Fair use (BitLaw).
