Caring.com Community Code of Conduct

We're glad you're here. We've heard from caregivers that they have questions, that they've learned things they want to share, and that sometimes they just want to talk to others who are living through the same things they are. We want this to be YOUR place to do that.

To make sure that this community remains a safe and encouraging place for everyone, we ask that you adhere to the following code of conduct while participating:

• Please choose a screen name that's tactful, or the Caring.com staff will ask you to make a change.
• Please refrain from using language that's profane, abusive, obscene, harassing, threatening, hateful, or otherwise objectionable.
• Personal attacks are never allowed. Differences of opinion are welcome, as long as they're presented respectfully. Attacking character and personal beliefs are unacceptable at all times.
• Revealing another member's real name, address, phone number, e-mail address, or any other personally identifying information is forbidden. It's an invasion of privacy.
• Do not use our community for solicitation purposes. This includes activities such as promoting businesses, sharing referral codes/links, and soliciting our members for research purposes.
• Do not use our community to generate traffic for other sites. Making references, providing a link, or otherwise mentioning other sites of value to our members is permitted—as long as you don’t do so for your own self interest.

PLEASE NOTE – It's your responsibility to keep your contact information current. The staff at Caring.com may use your e-mail address to contact you regarding your posts made in our community. It’s our goal to help you to contribute within our set of rules. However, we reserve the right to disallow your participation in our community and terminate your account at Caring.com if, in our opinion, you violate our code of conduct.
