1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using the Signal Hill Secondary School public website, online portals, or School Information System (SIS), you agree to comply with and be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not access or use these systems.

2. Authorized Use & User Accounts

  • Permitted Purpose: These systems are provided solely for legitimate school operations, instruction, student welfare, academic tracking, and administrative communication.
  • Account Credentials: If you are issued an account (as a student, parent/guardian, or staff member), you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials. You must not share your login credentials with anyone.
  • Immediate Notification: You must immediately notify the school administration office if you suspect unauthorized access to your account.

3. Acceptable Use Rules

Users agree not to:

  • Access or attempt to access records, accounts, or system areas for which they have not been granted explicit authorization.
  • Probe, scan, disrupt, or test the vulnerability of the systems, networks, or hosting infrastructure.
  • Introduce viruses, malware, automated scrapers, or other malicious code.
  • Use school communication tools to harass, defame, impersonate others, or transmit inappropriate material.
  • Alter, tamper with, or falsify any academic, attendance, or demographic records.

4. Accuracy of Information & Service Availability

  • Record Accuracy: While the school endeavors to keep all information up to date, official paper transcripts and verified administrative records maintained by the school office supersede digital displays in the event of any discrepancy.
  • System Availability: Online services are provided on an "as available" basis. Access may be temporarily interrupted for maintenance, system updates, or unforeseen technical issues.

5. Intellectual Property

All public website content, school branding, official notices, and layout materials are the property of Signal Hill Secondary School or its authorized licensors and may not be reproduced for commercial purposes without prior written consent.

6. Suspension and Termination

The school reserves the right to suspend, restrict, or revoke access to any user account that violates these terms, breaches school discipline codes, or poses a security risk to our systems, records, or school community.

7. Changes to Terms

We may update these terms as services and administrative policies evolve. Continued use of the website and portals after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
