DebateOurFuture Safety Suggestions
The content you post on DebateOurFuture.com is public
information. Do not post anything that could embarrass you or
others, or expose you or others to danger. DebateOurFuture.com is
a moderated website, all submissions are
reviewed by a moderator to ensure they conform to our terms of
use agreement. We do our humanly possible best to provide an Internet Safe Environment. Make sure you read our
Terms of
Use. Users of DebateOurFuture.com are responsible for
their own actions and use the services of DebateOurFuture.com at their own
risk.
That said, here are some common sense guidelines to
follow when using DebateOurFuture.com:
Don't forget that your profile, postings, video’s
and photo’s are public. Don't post or
share anything you wouldn't want the world to know or see, especially your
phone number and where you live or work.
Avoid posting anything that would make it easy for a stranger to
find you.
Be careful, people aren't always who they say they are. It's fun to
connect with groups and their members from all over the world, but
avoid meeting people in person whom you do not fully know. If you
must meet someone, do it in a public place and bring a friend with
you. If you’re going to participate in a posted event, call the
location to verify that the event is indeed taking place. If you
find anything amiss, report the group, member or event using the
report link at the bottom of every page or
click here. DebateOurFuture does not
verify event postings and is not responsible in any way for what
takes place at these events, that is your responsibility.
Harassment, hate speech and inappropriate content should be
reported. If you feel someone's behavior is inappropriate, report it
to DebateOurFuture using the report link at the bottom of
every page or
click here. If offensive material is posted that violates our terms
of use guidelines, report it.
Don't misrepresent yourself to the members of
DebateOurFuture.com. If you lie about your age and/or identity,
DebateOurFuture will delete your profile. If you discover a
member that you believe has lied about their age, report it using
the report link at the bottom of every page or
click here. DebateOurFuture
members must be 18 years of age or older. We take extra precautions
to insure our members are of age, but we are not able to do so if
they do not identify themselves as such. DebateOurFuture will
delete users whom we find to be younger than 18, or those
misrepresenting their age.
DebateOurFuture does not tolerate any stalking or predatory
behavior and we want our users to report such behavior.
Members are not anonymous. DebateOurFuture makes every effort
to adhere to all existing and proposed federal and state guidelines
for social networking websites, including the logging of IP
numbers. DebateOurFuture is happy to cooperate with
investigations conducted by law enforcement authorities. To ensure that we don't violate users' privacy
without due process, we do ask that law enforcement authorities send us a
subpoena before we pass along any user information. If you are a law
enforcement authority investigating a crime, please contact us
here.
This is your community, our members set the tone of the website.
Let’s have fun and treat everyone with the respect they deserve.
Remember.......,
- People are insecure; give them confidence.
- People want to feel special; compliment them.
- People desire a better tomorrow; show them hope.
- People need to be understood; listen to them.
- People are selfish; speak to their needs first.
- People are emotionally low; encourage them.
- People want to be associated with success; help them win.
