Social Media Communication Policy

Our commitment at Baden Powell CC.

Electronic communication is essential for sharing club news and information with our members. Our communication will be timely, appropriate and related to club business.

What we will do

We use a range of electronic tools to communicate with our members. Our communication will protect members’ privacy, maintain clear boundaries and ensure that bullying and harassment does not occur. A webmaster will be appointed to provide accountability and control over material published on our club’s website and any related discussion groups or social media websites, such as Facebook, YouTube or Twitter.

Social media websites

We treat all social media postings, blogs, status updates and tweets as public ‘comment’. Postings (written, photos or videos) will be family-friendly and feature positive club news and events. 

No personal information about our members will be disclosed.

No statements will be made that are misleading, false or likely to injure a person’s reputation.

No statements will be made that might bring our club into disrepute.

(a) In the event that a member brings the club into disrepute over an internet related indiscretion, the club shall initiate Item 39 of the Constitution.

Abusive, discriminatory, intimidating or offensive statements will not be tolerated. Offending posts will be removed and those responsible will be blocked from the site.

WE CAN STILL HAVE SOME FUN, BUT LETS KEEP IT NICE!
