    Exclamation Business Advice Forum - Rules, Disclaimer & Privacy Policy!

    Guidelines

    Thank you for your participation at Business Advice Forum, we greatly value it and know that without our members we wouldn't have a forum. In order to maintain the forum for the benefit of everyone we ask that you note the following;

    1. Advertising is allowed in your signature and the Free Advertising Forums. Advertising is not allowed in other areas of the forum.
    2. Articles and tutorials may only be posted in our Articles & Tutorials forum section
    3. Please do not copy and paste articles, portions of articles or posts from other sites, if you want to discuss an article, describe it in your own words and provide a link to it
    4. Please be polite to other members at all times
    5. When a member asks a question, please don't reply suggesting that they search on Google, unless you have something else helpful to add to the discussion
    6. This is an English language forum - only English language text is allowed
    7. We do not allow ads or links to Paid to Click (PTC), Paid to View or Paid to Read (PTR) sites or content
    8. We do not allow ads or links to prescription / drug sites
    9. We do not allow ads or links to gambling or casino related content
    10. This is a family friendly community. We do not allow links to sites that are adult or offensive in nature. We do not allow personal attacks or libelous statements to be posted on the forum
    11. Lots of extremely short posts such as "Great post" & "Thanks for sharing" do not help the community. If you wish to thank another member please make the effort to say why you are thanking them & how their post was useful to you. When appropriate, please use the Thanks System
    12. When posting to say you like something or to tell us who / what your favourite is, please tell us why. E.g. if you post to tell us that Brad Pitt is your favourite actor, please tell us why he is your favourite actor.
    13. *Poor quality posts that are used to promote your signature link and/or run up your post count are not allowed. Please ensure that your posts are helpful, on topic (i.e. relevant the the thread posted in and not just general advice) and original (i.e. not repeating something that has already been added to the thread)
    14. Please report any post that does not comply with our guidelines (you will see the triangle report button underneath the member's username and avatar, to the bottom left of their post)
    15. In most instances each individual is allowed only one account on Business Advice Forum. Duplicate accounts are only permitted with the express approval of the Forum Admin
    16. Any and all information (including personal information) shared by you on Business Advice Forum is your sole responsibility and BAF will not be held in any way responsible for it
    17. These rules are subject to change, without notice
    18. Please read our thread on Staying Safe Online - For Children, Teenagers and Adults Too!
    19. Please read the disclaimer below.

Three infractions and the member account will be banned.Thanks for your participation and enjoy your time on our business forum.

    Exclamation Privacy Policy - Business Advice Forum

    Business Advice Forum's Commitment To Privacy
    Your privacy is important to us. To better protect your privacy we provide this notice explaining our online information practices and the choices you can make about the way your information is collected and used. To make this notice easy to find, we make it available on our homepage and at every point where personally identifiable information may be requested.

    The Information We Collect:
    This notice applies to all information collected or submitted on the Business Advice Forum website.

    We request that you provide a user-name and email address on our registration page. The user-name you provide is a name of your choosing and does not need to include any identifiable information. We require a valid email address for verification, as part of our methods to prevent forum spam.

    The Way We Use Information:
    We use the registration information you provide about yourself only to complete your registration. We do not share this information with outside parties.

    We use email addresses to answer the email we receive and to send you Admin emails, related to your Business Advice Forum membership. These emails are infrequent and you should expect less than 15 such emails per year. Such addresses are not used for any other purpose and are not shared with outside parties.

    We may use non-identifying and aggregate information to better design our website and to share with advertisers. For example, we may tell an advertiser that X number of individuals visited a certain area on our website, but we would not disclose anything that could be used to identify those individuals.

    Finally, we never use or share the personally identifiable information provided to us online in ways unrelated to the ones described above without also providing you an opportunity to opt-out or otherwise prohibit such unrelated uses.

    Our Commitment To Data Security
    To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.

    Our Commitment To Children's Privacy
    Protecting the privacy of the very young is especially important. For that reason, we never collect or maintain information at our website from those we actually know are under 13, and no part of our website is structured to attract anyone under 13.

    How You Can Access Or Correct Your Information
    You can access and amend all your personally identifiable information that we collect online and maintain by logging in to Business Advice Forum and visiting the User CP. We use this procedure to better safeguard your information.

    You can also correct factual errors in your personally identifiable information by sending us a request that credibly shows error.

    To protect your privacy and security, we will also take reasonable steps to verify your identity before granting access or making corrections.

    Google Cookies
    We may publish Google ads at some time on Business Advice Forum. Google, as a third party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on publisher sites. Google's use of the DART cookie enables it and its partners to serve ads to users based on their visit to publisher sites and/or other sites on the Internet.
    Users may opt out of the use of the DART cookie by visiting the Google ad and content network privacy policy.

    How To Contact Us

    Admins are the only one who can edit posts here in Business Advice Forum. However, you can only edit your posts a few minutes after it is published.
    If you want some revisions on some of your posts, you can report it and state the changes that you want to be made.

    Could you please add the "How to Get a Link in Your Signature" section to the rules? Otherwise the advertising part in your signature is a little confusing.

    Merging the 'How to Get a Link in Your Signature on Business Advice Forum' to the rules would indicate that it was a rule itself, however 'How to Get a Link in Your Signature on Business Advice Forum' is more of an indication on how members can have/get a signature, and therefore isn't really a rule.

    Thanks for the helpful suggestion, I've added a link to that to the "Useful Business Advice Forum Links" in the first post of this thread.
