WeChat Service Platform Use Protocol and Child Protection Protocol

Welcome to the Yew Chung International School of Shanghai (YCIS Shanghai) Official WeChat Service Platform (“YCIS Shanghai WeChat Platform” or the “Platform”). Before Linking your WeChat account to, and using the Platform, please read the Terms below carefully. Your use of the Platform by logging-in and/or reading contents thereon, etc., shall be construed as your agreement to abide by the following Terms. As owner of the Platform, YCIS Shanghai has the right to revise the Terms from time to time in its sole discretion; and the revised Terms will become effective once they are published on the Platform by YCIS Shanghai. You may find the current Terms on the Platform at any time. If you disagree with any of the terms or its revisions made from time to time, you may unbind your WeChat account at any time.
  1. After linking your account with the Platform, YCIS Shanghai will, through the Platform, have access to your public information (including your user name, profile picture, etc.).
  2. Any operation on the YCIS Shanghai WeChat Platform through your linked account will be considered as your own, and you will be held responsible for the consequences of such operation.
  3. You are responsible for safeguarding your account details, including any passwords used to access your account and our services, and all use of our services under your account.
