Social media

Acceptable use policy. We have a number of social media outlets, which we invite the public to follow us on.

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, or any of the following:

  1. Be civil, tasteful and relevant.
  2. Do not post messages that are unlawful, libelous, harassing, defamatory, abusive, threatening, harmful, obscene, profane, sexually oriented or racially offensive.
  3. Do not swear.
  4. Do not post content copied from elsewhere, for which you do not own the copyright.
  5. Do not post the same message, or very similar messages, more than once (also called "spamming").
  6. Do not publicize your, or anyone else's, personal information, such as contact details.
  7. Do not advertise products or services.
  8. Do not impersonate someone else.

Defamation

Please take care not to make defamatory statements. In law this means a statement that lowers the reputation of a person or organisation in the eyes of a reasonable person. By publishing such a statement we can both get into serious trouble. We will therefore take down any statement that could be deemed to be defamatory as soon as we become aware of it.

Our approach to connections on social media

We may choose to 'follow', 'like' or otherwise establish connections with other organizations and individuals using social media. This is so that we can maintain contact with what other social media users are saying and, where appropriate, share their content. Sometimes we also need to establish a connection so that we can engage with users, e.g. via direct messages or posting. This is an emerging area of communications and as such Hostel4Me.com will review and amend its practice continuously.

Endorsement

Hostel4Me.com does not implicitly or explicitly endorse any individual or organisation merely by virtue of creating a social media connection, regardless of the terms used by social media providers such as 'follow' or 'like'. Indeed, the we may maintain social media connections with organizations that are critical of it and/or have opposing views. Nor does Hostel4Me.com hold any responsibility for the content of such profiles.

Removal

Once connected, Hostel4Me.com will not remove a profile from its network unless there is some over-riding reason to do so, e.g. because it poses a significant and material risk to Hostel4Me.com's reputation and credibility.

Contacting us via social media
