TERMS OF USE

Effective on 15 April 2020

Welcome to CLEAR PURPOSE!

These are the Terms of Use that govern the use of our platform and provide information about our Services, as described below. By signing up for an account and using our services, you are agreeing to these terms.

1. INTRODUCTION

We are CLEARING PURPOSE FRAMEWORK, the business name of legal person JOANA BRANDI MAO TREINAMENTOS E ASSESSORIA, registered under CNPJ number 36.239.908/0001-08, who is responsible for all information and based in Brazil.

CLEAR PURPOSE’s mission is to connect professionals (leaders, changemakers and entrepreneurs) to the CLEARING PURPOSE FRAMEWORK and to people, with the goal of developing their leadership with a clear purpose and in connection to people.

Upon signing up, every user must declare acceptance to these Terms of Use, declaring, therefore, to be in agreement with all items here described.

We will endeavour to always make improvements to our platform and to our Services use, so that our users’ experience is increasingly dynamic and secure. In this process, some functions and Services may be added to or removed from the system, which will make an update and subsequent acceptance of the new version of the Terms of Use necessary.

Thus, in case of substantial alteration to these Terms of Use, you will be notified by email, so that you may assess the alterations before they come into effect. In case of objections to any alteration, you will be able to terminate your account. Inversely, you agree that when you continue using our services after we publish or notify you of alterations to these Terms of Use, it means that the use and exploration of our platform are subjected to the updated Terms of Use as soon as they come into effect. It is recommended, therefore, that you frequently read our terms and clauses and that you only use the platform if you are in agreement with the content inserted there. The previous version will always be revoked by the publishing of the updated version.

2. OUR SERVICES

We agree to provide you with Services from the CLEAR PURPOSE platform, which are meant to advance our mission described above.

On our platform, Users share their professional identities and projects, interact with their networks, exchange knowledge and professional information, post and view content, while they actively learn through the CLEARING PURPOSE FRAMEWORK process how to develop skills through leadership projects with a clear purpose.

They find opportunities to present and generate engagement on these projects by producing content derived from the CLEARING PURPOSE FRAMEWORK process directed to non-users (“Visitors”), who may access the content through the Visions channel.

Our Service is composed by the following aspects (“Services”), described below (and also detailed in the FAQ section available on our platform):

Stay connected

Our Services allow you to gain knowledge and receive facilitation on the CLEARING PURPOSE FRAMEWORK with trained and certified facilitators, and to post your project’s development on the Visions channel to non-users (“Visitors”) in order to get feedback in the form of interactions and comments.

Develop a leadership project with the CLEARING PURPOSE FRAMEWORK

Our Services allow you to develop a leadership project through purpose clearing in four modular levels.

The 4 acquirable modules of the CLEARING PURPOSE FRAMEWORK with online facilitation, which configure the development stages of a leadership project within the platform, are:

Purpose – with focus on elevation of context perception and appreciation, and contact with a clear purpose.
Vision – with focus on reaching new ideas and possibilities of using resources and potentials towards a greater good.
Meaning – with focus on testing and validating the vision’s value to people.
Impact – with focus on evaluating results and designing a final vision for implementation.

Before deciding on acquiring the 4 levels, Users can have free access to the CLEARING PURPOSE FRAMEWORK trial version, in order to get to know the product.

Share the Development of Projects with a Clear Purpose

Our Services allow you to develop your leadership by sharing the progress of projects with a clear purpose on the Visions channel.

Engagement

Our Services allow you to receive support and collaboration from our “Visitors”, through interactions and comments.

Acceleration

Our Services allow Users to receive support and acceleration through optional investments we can make based on the performance of their leadership projects. These investments’ optionality follows criteria, including, but not limited to, the interaction and demonstration of trust by our “Visitors”, which are assessed through qualitative and quantitative analytics of their interactions with the User’s profile and posts.

Acceleration is a process of circular investment, i.e., an initial investment which is made under the agreement of it being returned in the same value (with monetary corrections) in the form of a new investment in another leadership project from CLEAR PURPOSE. When applicable, the contract of investment takes place only at “Level 4 – Impact”.

Generation of Impact

Data collected from cookies and beacons, as well as browsing data, may be commercialised for non-profit purposes only in order to support the platform’s circular economy proposal.
