5. Social Media Guidelines

Social media platforms offer an opportunity to HSEHK to communicate with our supporters and other groups/individuals who share an interest in our organisation in general. As most social media platforms are as such an open medium and we cannot monitor comments as they occur, the HSEHK has set a number of rules that we believe will benefit all users of our social media pages including supporters and staff.

 

Respect

We ask all users to engage in conversation/forum in a respectful manner, so that everyone can enjoy sharing their views on the platform.

We endeavour to answer your questions as soon as possible and reply comments where applicable. However, situations like communicating with our overseas partners may take us longer time to respond to you.

Only comments made by HSEHK administrator of this platform reflect the views of HSEHK. We value all comments from supporters, but reserve the right to remove posts that are:

  • Irrelevant to the objective of our page

  • Obscene, profane, disrespectful or hateful in nature

  • Considered harassment or threat to any individual or organisation

  • Successively off-topic or repeated comments by a single supporter

  • Repetitive solicitations or advertisements

  • Comments that encourage illegal activities

  • Confidential, compromising of personal security and privacy

  • In breach of intellectual property rights

 

HSEHK is neither responsible nor liable for any content posted or uploaded on the HSEHK Unison social media platform or other parties’ platforms by a third-party user.
