• are discriminatory, defamatory, racist, sexist, homophobic or otherwise offensive
• are false, misleading, off-topic, inflammatory or repetitive
• contain commercial content, advertisements or spam
• promote a product, service, cause or initiative
• infringe another person’s privacy, intellectual property or legal rights
• contain any other material we consider to be inappropriate.

Moderation

We monitor our LinkedIn page during business hours (Monday to Friday, 9 am – 5 pm AEST, excluding public holidays).

We may hide or delete comments that breach these guidelines. If necessary, we may also block users.

When we receive a complaint, we will:

• remove or hide the comment if it breaches these guidelines or may be defamatory
• if appropriate, issue an acknowledgement or apology (this does not constitute an admission of liability)
