:

Be considerate of other viewpoints. Share your thoughts in a constructive manner. Post photos, videos or other content that you think we’d like to see. Inflammatory, defamatory or vulgar content will be removed. Spam or off-topic posts—including those of a religious or overtly irrelevant political nature—are not allowed. Post any content that you don’t own or have permission to use. Below are the Guidelines for members of our social media communities, readers of our website, and blog/content contributors. These guidelines are designed to protect you and your fellow community members.

1.) STAY ON TOPIC AND BE RESPECTFUL
CCOF encourages open discussions. ALL communications should be civil and respectful. Differences of opinion are fine; personal attacks are not. Comments and contributions should be relevant to the topic being discussed.

2.) COMMENT MODERATION AND RESPONSE
No spam. Posting the same message to one or many social media posts, articles, galleries or discussions is considered spam and we may remove such postings from our social media platforms. No solicitation. Posts containing personal or commercial solicitations or advertising may be removed. We will do our best to moderate and respond quickly to your comments and feedback, but we cannot guarantee that we will reply to every comment. Generally, we check in at least twice daily during business hours. Please remember, though, that our social media platforms and our blog comments contain the opinions and views of other users. Although we are moderating our channels to help ensure that users’ posts comply with these Guidelines, we cannot be responsible for any comments or materials posted by users.

3.) WE MAY USE YOUR POSTS
By posting on one or more of our social media platforms, tagging us in a post or using one of our owned hashtags, you understand that your posts, and any ideas, techniques or images contained in them, may be freely used by us in any way and in any media, on our social media platforms, and in our business. Accordingly, please do not submit any ideas or materials that you wish to keep confidential or for which you expect to receive compensation. When you post on any of our social media platforms, your name, likeness and social media handle will be visible and associated with your post. If we reuse your post elsewhere, we may display your name, likeness and handle there, as well.

4.) LEGAL
Participating in, suggesting or encouraging any illegal activity is cause for immediate ban from CCOF’s social media communities. Upon discovery, we will edit or entirely remove such posts from the social media platforms we manage. The posting of copyrighted videos, photos, articles or other material beyond what is protected as fair use is prohibited and, upon discovery, we will remove such posts from any of the social media communities we manage. Do not pass off someone else’s intellectual property as your own. The registration of multiple accounts for the purpose of trolling or harassing CCOF or other community members, or with the intent to disrupt the flow of conversation, is prohibited. Any user discovered to be engaging in this type of behavior will result in all user names being banned from CCOF’s social media communities.

5.) MINORS UNDER 13
You must be at least 13 years old to participate in social media platforms. If you are a minor in your jurisdiction (but at least 13), please do not post your comment without the knowledge and permission of a parent or legal guardian. If you are an adult and your post contains the name or likeness of a minor, you must be the parent or legal guardian of that minor. CCOF reserves the right to: Determine what constitutes inappropriate content; Edit or entirely remove inappropriate content; Ban offenders from its social media communities at its sole discretion. The opinions expressed by users and content authors on CCOF’s social media platforms are theirs alone and do not necessarily reflect CCOF’s views or opinions. We are not responsible for anything contained in links to third-party sites. Your comments, responses or other postings may also be submitted to law enforcement if we have a good faith belief that disclosure of such information is reasonably necessary to detect and prevent fraud or to protect the safety of the public or an individual.
