Aegis Trust Education Department endeavors to provide information that it possesses about the copyright status of the content, and to identify any other terms and conditions that may apply to the use of the content, such as trademark, privacy or publicity rights, or donor or other contractual restrictions. However, in some cases it has been extremely difficult to identify all potential copyright holders.

Furthermore, all of our online collections are subject to a takedown policy. If we are contacted by a potential rights-holder we will remove the material in question from our website until we have been able to evaluate the case, and if appropriate we will ensure that the material is removed temporarily or permanently from our website. This also applies to cases in which rights-holders who have previously given permission wish to retract it for any reason.


Any comments, suggestions, newly uploaded materials from the end users must not be offensive, miseducating, genocide denying, or /and misleading the reality of the genocide perpetrated against the Tutsi in Rwanda. Rather, peace education related materials must be welcomed on this platform.
These terms and conditions to use the Ubumuntu Digital Platform take effect from the official launch of the platform.
