DMPPC, Role & Responsibility of the Board Members

DMPPC is an autonomous honorary and pro bono promotion and data monitoring board consisting of members of US Nepal Media Center (www.USNepalOnline.com), co-sponsors and representatives from countries where the major Nepalese diaspora populations are concentrated.

The Board Members will have responsibility to promote NepaliCount.com’s goal to encourage and engage the Nepalese community as a whole, and Nepalese individuals in particular, to play a significant role in promoting the importance and value of the 2010 census count in the United States and counting Nepalese in other countries.

The Board Members will have user data i.e. Name, Country, State, District, City, Village available online to analyze. The United States and other international cyber laws prevent USNMC to distribute or disclose user data protected by these laws i.e. email, IP address but USNMC will share if the user usage detail is vital to improve NepaliCount.com’s outreach to the areas where the counting is not effective.

The Board Members have no term-limit and they are not bound to any legal liability of NepaliCount.com if it gets into dispute for any reason. But if a member of the board misuses his/her honorary status USNMC will relieve him/her from the honorary post of Board of Director, Guest Editor or Board of Advisor with immediate effect.

Upon accepting to be on the honorary board you also agree that this signifies your intention to participate in the “Be Counted” campaign and promote its cause but does not create any binding relationship or obligations between you and NepaliCount.com, and you hold harmless NepaliCount.com for any liabilities incurred to you in relation to the appointment except in the case of NepaliCount.com’s negligence. Before accepting your nomination, we request you to read NepaliCount.com‘s full Terms of Use, Privacy Policy, Disclaimer and Copyrights Policy located at the NepaliCount.com portal.
