External IS services have been made available by IS JAMU developers to their users to increase the comfort of using IS JAMU.

External IS services are services provided to the school by an external entity (eg Google or Microsoft). As it cannot be ruled out that the conditions for providing the service by an external entity will change in the future, neither the IS ervices have been made available by IS JAMU developers to their users to increase the comfort of using IS JAMU nor the school can guarantee the availability of the services at any time in the future.

Any change in the contractual conditions by external service providers may lead to the termination of support for the provision of services. Neither the IS JAMU nor the school is responsible for any loss of data stored in external services or for other damage caused by (non) provision of external services.
