To maintain control over the account and to prevent anyone from accessing the account, the User should not reveal or share the password associated with the account to anyone.

By registering with a team, the User is aware that team representatives can view their course progress as well as view/modify their stored personal information and enrolled course selection.

5. MANAGING A CENTRAL ACCOUNT

GS Yuasa Academy offers organisations the ability to link individual accounts to a central account. As part of this process, Users can request to be provided with an upgraded Team Leader account.

Users with Team Leader functionality can send individual invitations by email or upload a .csv list of multiple email addresses. An automatic email will then be sent to all email addresses with an invitation to sign up to GS Yuasa Academy with an account linked to the Team Leader’s organisation.

By using this facility, a single email is generated and sent; a GS Yuasa Academy account is not automatically generated. The recipient must sign up once the email has been received.

Once the emails have been sent, GS Yuasa will automatically delete all details entered into the system. Records of the invitation emails sent will not be retained. It is up to the recipient to create an account for themselves.

For the following guidelines, the team leader generating the invitation emails will be referred to as ‘The Sender’ and the intended recipient of the email ‘The recipient’.

Senders using this facility agree to the following terms:

  • By sending the emails the sender confirms that they have the consent of all recipients
  • The sender will not impersonate or falsely pretend affiliation with any person or entity
  • The senders email address is active and linked to their organisation
  • The facility must only be used for business purposes
  • The senders email address will be included in all emails generated
  • It is the responsibility of the sender to ensure that the email has been received and actioned by the recipient. GS Yuasa suggest sending a follow up email from a business email account to ask the recipient to look for the email in spam if necessary and to action the email.
  • The sender acknowledges that the invitation link can be forwarded by the recipient and whoever it is passed on to or has access to the link can create a GS Yuasa Academy account linked to the senders account.
