Our Terms of Service specifically prohibit certain types of content, such as nudity, spam and anything that infringes on someone else’s rights, and you may have your own guidelines beyond that. There are many tools available in your social network and many things you can do that allow you to ensure that all of the content your members upload fit within our terms, your social network’s topic and your safety goals.
- Clearly posted terms & guidelines: Make sure your members know what your rules are. You can post them using the HTML Content section. For good measure, you can create a profile question requiring members to acknowledge upon joining that they’ve agreed to your terms and guidelines.
- Network Administrators: Admins can help you keep an eye on troublesome members. If necessary, you could even coordinate a schedule so that an Admin is available around the clock to address your members’ reports and any inappropriate behavior.
- Member support: Make sure your members know that you’re dedicated to keeping your social network within your terms. Encourage them to report anything that’s inappropriate to you ASAP. After all, this is their community too, and they can be your best advocates.
- Content moderation: You can choose to require your and your Admins’ approval for all photos, videos, blog posts, events and groups before they appear on your social network.
- Limiting who can create content: You can limit the ability to create content by feature instance.
- Content featuring: You can use the feature option to showcase interesting content and members on your main page. When you feature content, it’ll also appear at the top of the home page for that section. A featured photo, for example, will appear above all the other photos at the top of the Photos page.
- Deletion: You have ultimate control over what appears on your social network. You can delete any piece of content at any time. Just look for the “Delete” links or “X” that denotes the option to delete content across your social network.
