Social Media Policy
Advice requests
We are committed to people getting the most appropriate and high quality advice. We cannot give advice or respond to advice requests over our social networks or through our blogs as they are not monitored daily. Therefore, if you do need advice, please head to the relevant section of our website – Get Advice!
Endorsements
Any follows, retweets, favourites, likes, shares, comments or other social media interactions should not be considered an endorsement or agreement with the sentiment by Citizens Advice Dudley and Wolverhampton.
Inappropriate behaviour
We encourage open conversation on our social media channels, and would love to hear your views and experiences. However, we ask that you abide by our community guidelines when you do so. By contributing to one of our online channels you agree:
- to be solely responsible for the content of all information you contribute, link to or otherwise upload
- to use language that is appropriate, respectful and polite
- that use of trademarks or intellectual property belonging to another will not be used unless the owners’ prior permission has been given.
Any posts which contravene these guidelines or which we deem inappropriate may be hidden, deleted or lead to a ban. In most cases we will endeavour to inform the poster why their post or behaviour was inappropriate.
Inappropriate posts and behaviour may include:
- offensive language, profanity, personal attacks, illegal statements, discrimination of any kind
- content attempting to impersonate someone else
- advertisements for products and/or services
- misleading information, deliberately or accidentally.
- contacting people privately or separately from the original discussion and using offensive or aggressive language.
We will not remove posts because they are critical of Citizen’s Advice Dudley and Wolverhampton, unless they also match any of the criteria above. If your post was removed and you wish to question our decision, please get in touch with us.
