Appendix - landscape of life Community code
We want people to feel safe when using our groups and forums whether online or in-person. For that reason, we’ve developed a set of policies for our community code, outlined below. These policies will help you understand what type of sharing is allowed in our private groups and communities, and what type of content may be reported to us and removed. Because of the diversity of our community, please keep in mind that something that may be disagreeable or disturbing to you, may not violate our community code.
1. Keep it respectful
Comments that are inappropriately negative, rude, or attacking will be deleted, removed, or we will ask you to revise your thoughts. Everyone is here to learn and grow, so anything violating that will be removed.
2. No pitching to the group
We have a strict ‘no shopping for customers’ policy in our groups. This includes pointing people to blog posts with your offers/affiliate offers and publicly asking members to join your own Facebook groups or communities. Be cautious of unsolicited private messages to group members. If we get multiple complaints that you or someone else is using private messages to make unsolicited pitches to members, you may be asked to leave. You should view the group as your peers, not your leads.
3. Maintain integrity and our rules of registration
Always maintain your integrity by safeguarding Our Content, and keeping your Passwords and account information confidential and safe. You aren’t permitted to share any content or account details under our Terms, so make sure you report any hacking, viruses, or unauthorised access to your account to us immediately so we can take action.
4. Respect confidentiality
Content gathered in the landscape of life Community groups cannot be collected, repackaged, and/or shared outside the group. Every member of our communities has a right to privacy and the right to feel safe that their questions, answers, and experiences remain privy to group members only.
5. Keep it on topic
We reserve the right to remove posts based on off-topic content or offensive content.
6. Report posts that are breaking group policies
Due to the large amount of people in our groups and communities, it’s sometimes difficult for us to catch everything. If you see a post that is questionable, please report it, tag our community manager in the comments, or reach out to our community manger directly via private message so our team can review them.
7. Breaking the rules
If you are deemed to be breaking the rules of the group, landscape of life reserves the right to remove or eject you from the Facebook, other online group or in-person forum that the offending behaviour has occurred within.
Make an enquiry
If you wish to schedule an appointment, are curious to know more about courses, coaching, supervision or retreats, then please get in touch. We will get back to you as soon as possible.
