Users acknowledge that the operators have no legal obligation to them or to any third party in connection with the service users receive from the site.  This includes any breakdown or disturbance that an operator may experience, be it systemic or in the operator's network, which will impair the operator's ability to allow the site to provide the service.  Users acknowledge that the operators serve only as agents, through which the site sends its messages, in accordance with the conditions the operators have with their customers, which conditions cover the limitations of the operator's equipment and networks.

 

Users acknowledge that the operators are entitled to cut off, stop, or limit cellular telephone service, at any time, and in absolute accordance with the judgment of the operators alone, including the service upon which the site's service is dependent, to any of the recipients of the operator's service, whether upon the operator's receipt of a request from the user, or at times of emergency, or from any other cause, and the user will have no complaint, demand, or claim regarding this occurrence neither toward the site nor toward the operator.

 By-laws of the Israelweather.co.il Forum

The Israelweather.co.il forum (hereafter: the forum) is a private forum managed by Boaz Dayan for the benefit of amateur meteorologists and lovers of ecology and the environment.  The forum seeks to bring together people young and old who share these interests.  The forum is expected to enjoy heavy traffic, especially in the winter.  Thousands of users are registered for the forum and enter it often to be updated or to update others. 

 

All members of the forum are expected to read the entire declaration of conditions as herein delineated.

 

Rules and Regulations Governing the Forum

In order to maintain the forum at the highest possible level, users are expected to follow the following rules of conduct:

        Since the forum is intended for discussions of weather and conservation, users are expected to refrain from discussing other subjects.  Announcements that are not relevant to the subjects of the forum will be erased.

        The forum is a place where people with quite varied levels of education and knowledge come to talk.  Everyone is entitled to express his opinion, as long as s/he does so in a mannerly way without insulting or otherwise hurting others.  Members of the forum are expected to respect the opinions of others.  It is, of course, reasonable to disagree with another's opinion, but said disagreement must be made in a respectful manner.

        We are amateurs not dabblers.  We must all make every effort to give our forecasts and estimations based on the science of meteorology to the best of our knowledge, and in accordance with the information presented by the weather models of meteorological organizations.

        Forum members are warned to relate to forecasts with care.  The responsibility for any action or activity based on a forecast given in the forum is wholly on the receiver of the forecast and in no way on the giver of the forecast.

        We recognize that accurate weather forecasting is possible for only seven days at the very most.  Forum members are expected to refrain from asking for or giving forecasts for any period beyond the upcoming seven days.

 

Erasing Messages

In order to manage the forum properly, to prevent insult or other injury to another forum member, or to resolve technical problems, the forum manager is authorized to erase messages without prior warning.  The erasing of messages is not to be misunderstood as a form of punishment toward a member but, rather, as a necessary tool to ensure the proper management of the forum.  It is the exclusive right of the forum manager to decide whether or not to explain his reason(s) for erasing any message.  It is also his exclusive right to decide how to deliver said explanation.

 

If a message or messages have been erased, and a forum member wants to communicate his displeasure, the forum itself is not the proper venue for such discussion.  The proper place to speak with the forum manager about such matters is his message box or by email. 

 

It should not be construed that the forum manager agrees with controversial or personal messages that he did not erase.

  

Rules for Forum Members

  • In order to update the general public as well as other forum members, it is expected that forum members will provide timely updates as to the weather in their area.  False updates will be erased and future communication from that person will be blocked.
  • Members are requested to read through messages already sent to the forum before sending their own message.  It is impolite in the extreme to repeat information or to send maps that have already been sent.
  • We wish to maintain a pleasant atmosphere in the forum at all times.  Pursuant to that goal, members are expected to converse in a polite and respectful manner at all times.
  • It is unacceptable for a forum member to use crude or vulgar language while on the forum.  Members are expected to refrain from writing out of anger.  It is to be considered contempt of the forum to use vulgar language and it will lead to the member's message being erased and may even lead to the member being blocked.  If a member has a disagreement with a message s/he may, of course, ask for further explanation but in a proper manner.
  • It is very important to acknowledge one's sources, to respect copyright laws, and to protect intellectual property.  This applies to maps, satellite pictures, or anything gleaned from any source both in Israel and abroad.  It is expected that members will credit their sources, including Meteotech, radio or television stations, or any official weather service in or out of Israel.
  • It is totally unacceptable for a member to record or print another source's forecast and to report it as his own.
  • Advertising other weather sites on the forum is totally unacceptable and such advertisements will be erased.

 Advertising on the Forum

Any advertisement of any sort will immediately be erased.  Care must be taken to distinguish between straightforward advertising for meteorological equipment or services and the mentioning of said equipment or services as the answer to a question.  When there is doubt in this matter, the forum manager has the authority to make the final decision.

 

Structure of the Forum

The forum is arranged like a tree.  Each main message can have many responses branching off it.  The main message deals with a specific topic and all responses are expected to stay on topic.  Responders are also requested to post their responses on the tree of the main message and not to open another main message.

 

A new subject for discussion will be opened by a new main message.

 

When a new main message is posted it pushes the previous tree to the next page.

 

Forum members who repeatedly fail to respond as above described may have their responses erased or quarantined in a separate place within the forum.  In extreme circumstances, the responder may be blocked.  Responses that don't follow the established modus operandi make it difficult for other members to follow a discussion and place an unnecessary burden on the system that runs the forum.  The forum manager alone has the authority to quarantine or erase messages due to improper use of the forum.

 

One of the main purposes of the forum is to enable members to ask weather-related questions and receive answers to them.  When a member wants to ask a question s/he should look through the forum to see if it has already been asked and answered.  It is impolite to repeatedly ask a question that has already been answered.

 

Trolling

Trolling is the practice of bothering people in forums or chat rooms simply for the sake of bothering them.  Trolls are wont to misrepresent themselves, to interfere with civil discussions, and to generally insinuate themselves into conversations about which they have neither working knowledge nor any sincere desire to further anyone else's understanding of the issue.

 

Members are asked to ignore trolls.  It is the responsibility of the forum manager to rid the forum of them.

 

The forum manager goes on record declaring that any forum member who introduces irrelevant matters into discussions, argues gratuitously, speaks sarcastically, cynically, or argumentatively and tries to draw other members away from the discussion at hand will be summarily blocked from the forum.

 

Forum members who have a complaint about another member should turn to the forum manager alone, via email or the forum manager's message board.  Members are never to take their complaints about another member to the pages of the forum itself.

 

Intellectual Property

The site recognizes that writings, charts, graphs, and the like are protected intellectual property under law.

 

Members are strictly prohibited to change, copy, transmit to others, publish, to produce derivative works, to perform reverse engineering, or to store the content of the service, whether in whole or in part, permanently or temporarily, in any manner whatsoever, without the expressly written consent of Boaz Dayan.  The site is intended solely for members' private and personal use.  Use of the data base of the site is strictly prohibited without the expressly written consent of Boaz Dayan.  Members may not copy, publish, duplicate, present in public, or transmit to a third party the information or any part of the information found on the site without the expressly written permission of Boaz Dayan.  Members may not publicize, broadcast, telecast, pass on, sell, publish, or make any commercial use whatsoever of the information or of any part of said information found on the site without the expressly written consent of Boaz Dayan.

The site manager shall not be obligated nor responsible, directly or indirectly, to make reparations or reimbursements or any payment whatsoever which may derive from the use of the site or of the inability to use the site and/or its services as a result of an unauthorized entry into the site or of any change in data or messages on the part of the user even if israelweather.co.il has been warned that such damage may occur.  The service is offered as is and the site cannot accept responsibility to suit it to the goals and needs of any specific user.  The user acknowledges that israelweather.co.il is not responsible for any use the user makes of it, directly or indirectly, regarding its services or the conditions and that the user is solely responsible for his or her use of the site and/or any contents therein.  Israelweather.co.il will not be responsible for any damage, direct or indirect, that may occur to a user or any third party from use of information and/or content on the site, nor from cancellation or interruption of service including problems the site incurs in transferring information whether said problems were caused purposefully by a third party or whether they occurred because of a technical malfunction.

 

The site makes every reasonable effort to protect the privacy of users.  With that in mind, the user acknowledges that the nature of the internet is such that 100% perfect privacy protection is not possible.  Pursuant to this, the user absolves the site of responsibility for any damage, direct or indirect, financial or otherwise, that the user may incur as a result of the leaking of said private and personal information, without any regard whatsoever to the cause of said leaking.  The user acknowledges that the provision of services through the aegis of the site is dependent on third parties and the site is not responsible for any omission, oversight, or failure of any third party; and the site will not be responsible for any damage, loss, or expense incurred by a user or by a third party as a result of or in connection with said omissions, oversights, or failures.  The site is not responsible for the availability of services, content, form, reliability, authenticity, or accuracy of any content provided by users as defined above; and is not responsible for damage and/or violation of intellectual property rights, including commercial symbols and/or secrets, in connection with content provided by users or any other use by any user of the site or of any service offered therein.  Any use of the site and/or any reliance by a user upon content, information, advertisement, service, product, opinions or positions found or advertised in the site, or in a linked-to service is made upon the user's own consideration and s/he alone accepts full responsibility for said use.  In the event that a user communicates with a third party who advertises on the site, all conditions of said communication shall be agreed upon by the user and the advertiser; the site shall in no way be a party in said communications; the site is in no way responsible, and will accept no responsibility for damages or other claims made by users as a result of the afore-mentioned communications.  A user will have no claim or demand toward the site in connection with the quality of information, services, or products, advertised on the site or supplied by an advertiser on the site.  This shall apply also to an advertiser's and/or supplier's abilities, limitations, and suitableness to the needs of the user and to any response or reaction that may or may not be made by a user; and the user hereby absolves the site or any representative of the site of any claim or demand in this regard.

 

In no way shall israelweather.co.il nor any representative of it be responsible for direct or indirect damage, for punitive damages, coincidental damage, unique or derivative damage, and any other possible damage including, but not excluding any other damages, financial damage caused by loss from use of the site, loss of data, loss of profits, which may come about because of the use of a service, because of a problem in the delivery of the service, in the inability to use the service provided, or in the failure of the service to be delivered, or of any attendant information, program, product, service, or graphics which were presented via the service; or if said loss occurs from any manner of use of a service offered, whether the claim is based on an agreement, on tort law, on absolute responsibility, or on any other rationale, even if the manager of the site or a representative  of the site becomes aware that said damages may occur.

 

The user knows that the site is managed by an amateur meteorologist, not a professional weather forecaster.  The user knows and understands that weather forecasting is still an imprecise and uncertain science; that weather forecasting is more of an educated guess based upon data yet subject to error and unexpected changes and developments.  The user shall have no claim, complaint, demand, or special request which derive from a mistaken analysis or forecast presented on the site or originating in any of the weather-forecasting media; mistakes in weather forecasting; unexpected snow; estimates of snowfall on Mount Hermon; rainfall, weather warnings, temperature, humidity, wave heights at sea, fires, wind damage, high water or flood damage, heat waves, cold snaps, clouds, or any extreme or not extreme weather condition; or problems in the user's plans or in a third party's plans.  The site, its representatives, and any third party that supplies content will not be deemed responsible for any emotional or physical damage to a person, damage to property, damage to any person's way of life that may be caused by use of a service offered or provided by the site including damage to a third party, all said damages and any other damages resulting from weather conditions whether said weather conditions were forecast or whether they were not forecast, at any time or season of the year and in any location to which the weather forecast may apply.   The user understands that in any matter in which the weather will be a major factor, s/he is not to rely solely on the information and/or forecasts found in israelweather.co.il; and s/he is hereby instructed to consult with weather forecasting professionals.

The English Translation

The English translation was based on a Hebrew document.  In the event of a disagreement based on the English translation, the Hebrew document shall override the English translation and the Hebrew document alone shall be used in the adjudication of the matter.
