Rules for council communities
In communities controlled by the council we expect everyone to follow these rules:
- Be civil, tasteful and relevant
- Do not post messages that are unlawful, libellous, harassing, defamatory, abusive,
threatening, harmful, obscene, profane, sexually oriented or racially offensive - Do not swear
- Do not post content copied from elsewhere, for which you do not own the copyright
- Do not post the same message, or very similar messages, more than once (also called “spamming”
- Do not publicise your, or anyone else’s, personal information, such as contact details
- Do not advertise products or services
- Do not impersonate someone else
- Treat others with respect
We reserve the right to remove any contributions that breach these rules.
Libel
We take care not to make libellous statements and expect others to do so too. In law this
means a statement that lowers the reputation of a person or organisation in the eyes of a
reasonable person. We therefore reserve the right to remove any statement that could be
deemed to be libellous.
Pre-election publicity rules
In the six-week run up to an election – local, general or European – councils have to very
careful not to do or say anything that could be seen in any way to support any political party
or candidate. We will continue to publish important service announcements using social
media but may have to remove responses if they are overtly party political.
Other communities
Most online communities have their own rules and guidelines, which we will always follow.
We reserve the right to remove any contributions that break the rules or guidelines of the
relevant community.
