3. “Pattaya Unplugged” Online Communities
While encouraging rigorous debate and the sharing of diverse opinions, “PU” expects community members to treat each other with respect and courtesy. These standards apply to interaction within all “PU” Online Services including official “PU” accounts established on third-party social media sites.
You understand and agree “PU” has ultimate editorial control over all its online services. “PU” may edit, remove or exercise its discretion not to publish your contribution for legal, editorial or operational reasons including if the “PU” considers it to be:
defamatory, or otherwise unlawful or that it violates laws regarding harassment, discrimination, racial vilification, privacy or contempt;
intentionally false or misleading;
infringement of intellectual property rights including copyright;
abusive, offensive or obscene;
inappropriate, off-topic, repetitive or vexatious. For example “PU” reserves the right to reject contributions that have been widely canvassed in any forum. It also reserves the right to reject contributions from participants who seek to dominate the discussion;
compromising the privacy of any person or containing inappropriate personal information;
seeking to endorse commercial products or services without our prior consent or agreement as may be required;
seeking to directly solicit donations;
deliberate provocation of other community members; or
impersonating someone else and/or posting on behalf of a suspended member.
If you breach these Terms of Use, “PU” may block your account or contributions.
“PU” values the role of its communities in guiding content standards and etiquette among members. If you have concerns about inappropriate content on a “PU” Online Service you can alert the moderator of that space.
When accessing or participating in a “PU”-managed space on a third-party platform, such as channels, pages or feeds hosted on an external site, you agree to comply with the terms and conditions specified by that third party platform.
“PU” recommends you make sure you understand the privacy settings for each platform with which you engage and choose appropriate options to protect your personal details and content shared.
