Announce Content Policy

Our content policies play an important role in ensuring a positive experience for all our users. Please join us in this effort by respecting these guidelines. We may make exceptions to these policies based on artistic, educational, historical, documentary, or scientific considerations, or where there are other substantial benefits to the public.

Non compliance to these policies will lead to take down of announcements, and potential account suspension.

  1. Useful Announcements

Announce aims to provide a platform to create quality announcements to the users who need to hear those. We do not allow announcements that are offensive, gibberish, or add no value to the world. Any announcement that is meaningless will eventually be taken down by our system.

 

  1. Transparency

Visitors to your site want to trust and understand who makes the announcement.

 

  1. Ads and sponsored content

Advertising and other paid promotional material on your pages should not exceed your content. We do not allow content that conceals or misrepresents sponsored content as independent, editorial content. Sponsorship, including, but not limited to, ownership or affiliate interest, payment, or material support, should be clearly disclosed to readers. The subject of sponsored content should not focus on the sponsor without clear disclosure.

 

  1. Personal and confidential information

We do not allow the sharing of a private person's confidential and personally identifiable information (e.g. medical records or financial information).



  1. Copyrighted content

We do not allow content that infringes anyone’s intellectual property rights and will respond to clear notices of alleged copyright infringement. Repeated infringement of intellectual property rights, including copyright, will result in account termination.

 

  1. Sexually explicit content

We do not allow content that features explicit sexual imagery primarily intended to cause sexual arousal. Announce is not a platform for adult content. Any adult content posted will be taken down and the user profile will be suspended.



  1. Graphic violent content

We do not allow content that incites or glorifies violence. We also do not allow extremely graphic or violent materials for the sake of disgusting others.

 

  1. Hateful content

We do not allow content that promotes violence or harassment against an individual or group based on ethnic origin, religion, disability, gender, age, veteran status, sexual orientation, or gender identity.



  1. Medical advice

We do not allow sites primarily aimed at providing medical advice, diagnosis or treatment.



  1. Dangerous and illegal activities

We do not allow content that promotes or facilitates dangerous or illegal activities, including self-harm, such as self mutilation, eating disorders, or drug abuse. We also do not allow content used to threaten or organize violence or support violent organizations.

 

  1. Harassment and cyberbullying

We do not allow content that sends messages intended to harass, bully, or physically or sexually threaten others.

 

  1. Deceptive practices

We do not allow sites or accounts that impersonate any person or organization, or that misrepresent or conceal their ownership or primary purpose. We do not allow sites or accounts that engage in inauthentic or coordinated behavior activity that misleads users. This includes, but isn’t limited to, sites or accounts that misrepresent or conceal their country of origin or that direct content at users in another country under false premises. This also includes sites or accounts working together in ways that conceal or misrepresent information about their relationships or editorial independence.



  1. Spam and malware

We do not allow excessive repetitive, duplicate, or unoriginal content, misspellings, grammatical errors, or gimmicky character use. We do not allow links to malware, viruses, or other harmful software. We also do not allow sites engaging in link schemes intended to manipulate a site's ranking in news results or generate unnatural traffic or any other behavior addressed under our Webmaster guidelines
