The PostaHope Rules

Our goal is to provide a service that allows you to discover and receive content from sources that interest you as well as to share your content with others. We respect the ownership of the content that users share and each user is responsible for the content he or she provides. Because of these principles, we do not actively monitor user’s content and will not censor user content, except in limited circumstances described below.

Content Boundaries and Use of PostaHope

In order to provide the PostaHope service and the ability to communicate and stay connected with others, there are some limitations on the type of content that can be published with PostaHope. These limitations comply with legal requirements and make PostaHope a better experience for all. We may need to change these rules from time to time and reserve the right to do so. Please check back here to see the latest.

  • Impersonation: You may not impersonate others through the PostaHope service in a manner that does or is intended to mislead, confuse, or deceive others.

  • Trademark: We reserve the right to reclaim user names on behalf of businesses or individuals that hold legal claim or trademark on those user names. Accounts using business names and/or logos to mislead others will be permanently suspended.

  • Privacy: You may not publish or post other people's private and confidential information, such as credit card numbers, street address or Social Security/National Identity numbers, last names, email addresses, or any other information that would permit others to ascertain the actual identity of that person without their express authorization and permission.

  • Violence and Threats: You may not publish or post direct or indirect, specific threats of violence against others, or any other Content that would be illegal in the jurisdiction in which you are located, or in West Virginia, or in the United States.

  • Copyright: We will respond to clear and complete notices of alleged copyright infringement. Our copyright procedures are set forth in the Terms of Service.

  • Unlawful Use: You may not use our service for any unlawful purposes or for promotion of illegal activities. International users agree to comply with all local laws regarding online conduct and acceptable content.

  • Libel and/or Slander: You may not publish or post direct or indirect, specific or unspecific libelous and/or slanderous Content against others, or any other Content that would be illegal in the jurisdiction in which you are located, or in West Virginia, or in the United States.

Spam and Abuse

PostaHope strives to protect its users from spam and abuse. Technical abuse and user abuse is not tolerated on PostaHope.com, and will result in permanent suspension. Any accounts engaging in the activities specified below are subject to permanent suspension.

  • Serial Accounts: You may not create serial accounts for disruptive or abusive purposes, or with overlapping use cases. Mass account creation may result in suspension of all related accounts. Please note that any violation of the PostaHope Rules is cause for permanent suspension of all accounts.

  • Username Squatting: You may not engage in username squatting. Accounts that are inactive for more than 6 months may also be removed without further notice. Some of the factors that we take into account when determining what conduct is considered to be username squatting are:

    • the number of accounts created

    • creating accounts for the purpose of preventing others from using those account names

    • creating accounts for the purpose of selling those accounts

    • using feeds of third-party content to update and maintain accounts under the names of those third parties

  • Selling user names: Unless you have been specifically permitted to do so in a separate agreement with PostaHope, you agree that you will not reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, trade or resell the Services for any purpose, where "Services" is defined as follows: Your use of PostaHope’s products, services and web sites (referred to collectively as the “Services” in this document and excluding any services provided to you by PostaHope under a separate written agreement) is subject to the terms of a legal agreement between you and PostaHope.

  • Malware/Phishing: You may not publish or link to malicious content intended to damage or disrupt another user’s browser or computer or to compromise a user’s privacy.

  • Spam: You may not use the PostaHope service for the purpose of spamming anyone. What constitutes “spamming” will evolve as we respond to new tricks and tactics by spammers. Some of the factors that we take into account when determining what conduct is considered to be spamming are:

    • If your updates consist mainly of links, and not personal updates;

    • If you post misleading links;

    • The number of spam complaints that have been filed against you;

    • If you post duplicate content over multiple accounts or multiple duplicate updates on one account;

    • If you post multiple unrelated updates to a topic using #;

    • If you post multiple unrelated updates to a trending or popular topic;

    • If you send large numbers of duplicate @replies or mentions;

    • If you send large numbers of unsolicited @replies or mentions in an attempt to spam a service or link;

    • If you add a large number of unrelated users to lists in an attempt to spam a service or link;

    • If you repeatedly post other users' Content as your own;

    • If you have attempted to "sell" followers, particularly through tactics considered aggressive following or follower churn;

    • Creating or purchasing accounts in order to gain followers;

    • Using or promoting third-party sites that claim to get you more followers (such as follower trains, sites promising "more followers fast," or any other site that offers to automatically add followers to your account);

    • If you create false or misleading Points of Interest;

    • If you create Points of Interest to name squat or spam.

  • Pornography: You may not use obscene or pornographic images in either your profile picture or user background, or in any video. The video upload from YouTube option must not contain any violent or pornographic material and further any video uploaded from YouTube must comply with all the rules, terms and conditions of YouTube.

Your account may be suspended for Terms of Service, Privacy Policy and/or any Rules violations if any of the above is true. Accounts created to replace suspended accounts will be permanently suspended.

Accounts engaging in any of these behaviors may be investigated for abuse. Accounts under investigation may be removed from Search for quality. PostaHope reserves the right to immediately terminate your account without further notice in the event that, in its judgment, you violate these Rules, the Terms of Service or Privacy Policy.

Effective June 1, 2011.
