PRIVACY

We’re committed to protecting personal privacy and information. 

 

Policy rationale

Bullying and harassment happen in many places and come in many different forms, from making threats and releasing personally identifiable information to sending threatening messages and making unwanted malicious contact. We do not tolerate this kind of behavior because it prevents people from feeling safe and respected on Boeme Circle .

For public figures, we remove attacks that are severe as well as certain attacks where the public figure is directly tagged in the post or comment.

For private individuals, our protection goes further: We remove content that’s meant to degrade or shame, including, for example, claims about someone’s personal sexual activity. We recognise that bullying and harassment can have more of an emotional impact on minors, which is why our policies provide heightened protection for users between the ages of 13 and 18.

Context and intent matter, and we allow people to post and share if it is clear that something was shared in order to condemn or draw attention to bullying and harassment. In certain instances, we require self-reporting because it helps us understand that the person targeted feels bullied or harassed.

  • For the following Community Standards, we require additional information and/or context to enforce:

    Do not:

    • Post content that targets private individuals through unwanted Pages, groups and events. We remove this content when it is reported by the victim or an authorised representative of the victim.
    • Create accounts to contact someone who has blocked you.
    • Post attacks that use derogatory terms related to female-gendered cursing. We remove this content when the victim or an authorised representative of the victim informs us of the content, even if the victim has not reported it directly.
    • Post content that would otherwise require the victim to report the content or an indicator that the poster is directly targeting the victim (e.g. the victim is tagged in the post or comment). We will remove this content if we have confirmation from the victim or an authorised representative of the victim that the content is unwanted.
    • Post content praising, celebrating or mocking anyone’s death. We also remove content targeting a deceased individual that we would normally require the victim to report.
    • Post content calling for or stating an intent to engage in behaviour that would qualify as bullying and harassment under our policies. We will remove this content when we have confirmation from the victim or an authorised representative of the victim that the content is unwanted.
