Terms of Service

The Endangered Languages Project (ELP) (http://endangeredlanguages.com) is currently administered by the ELCat/ELP team at the University of Hawai'i Manoa (UHM). The Project is constantly evolving, and UHM may add or remove functionalities or features at any time. UHM may also transfer ownership of the site to another party or suspend or stop providing ELP altogether.

For as long as UHM continues to administer ELP, your use of ELP and any data or information accessed in ELP is subject to these additional terms and conditions:

User Account and Brand License

You may sign up for an Endangered Languages Project account as an individual or as an organization. By creating an account, you permit ELP to publicize your affiliation with the site.

Alliance for Linguistic Diversity

Any organization that creates a Project account automatically applies for membership in the Alliance for Linguistic Diversity.

The Alliance for Linguistic Diversity aims to accelerate, strengthen, and catalyze efforts around endangered language documentation, to support communities engaged in protecting or revitalizing their languages, and to raise awareness about ways to address threats to endangered languages.
