Jury Decision For the pre-selection a jury of experts (software engineers, programmers, professional designers, professors, teachers) will evaluate the projects (there are different sections for university students and high school students) and the qualified ones will be announced as soon as possible. There might be multiple reasons for jury's decision, but the principal criteria for evaluating the projects are on the web site. Due to confidentiality reasons, the INFOMATRIX policy does not accept publishing of scores obtained during this phase of INFOMATRIX. In the final phase, qualified project owners will come to Bucharest and arrange their stands in the exhibition hall. Exhibition will be open to public for one- two days. In the mean time, the jury will assess the projects during the exhibition. Please note that we are combating prejudices which lead to racial discrimination and we are promoting understanding, tolerance and friendship among nations and racial, religious and ethnical groups. INFOMATRIX believes strongly in protecting our users' privacy. Please note that ISC uses the best of its ability to protect all data from external and unauthorized party access by the use of (but not limited to) firewalls and encryption. Additionally it also uses the best of its ability to protect site users from viruses via virus scanning software. However no security system and/or virus system is 100% secure or 100% effective. Should sensitive data be confirmed as compromised, or a virus discovered on an ISC system, ISC will alert the affected user via email (to the address registered on the site). However, due to the nature of security and viruses, ISC strongly advises the user to take their own security precautions, such as personal virus scanning software, and/or encrypting sensitive communications. Given the nature of these matters, should a security compromise or virus incident occur, user agrees that ISC is not liable for the incident (in any way or kind) nor for any repercussions of such an incident (in any way or kind).
