General Guidelines
Rink Rater allows users to contribute different kinds of content, including reviews, photos, tips and more. Playing nice is the name of the game, but just in case, we’ve put together these general guidelines. Please also read the guidelines below for specific types of content that you might contribute to the site.
• Inappropriate content: Rink Rater is designed to serve as a constructive, helpful resource for our users. If you’ve got negative comments to offer a particular Rink, please use the contact form within the app to voice your opinions. Let’s keep it positive. Colorful language is fine, but there’s no need for threats, harassment, lewdness, hate speech, and other displays of bigotry.
• Conflicts of interest: Your contributions should be unbiased and objective. For example, you shouldn’t write reviews of your own business or employer, your friends’ or relatives’ business, your peers or competitors in your industry, or businesses in your networking group.
• Promotional content: Unless you’ve spoken directly to Rink Rater staff, you are not to add content that promotes or markets your business, product, etc. Feel free to get in touch with us if you’d like to be a Marketing Partner or Advertiser with Rink Rater. Let’s keep the site useful for consumers and not overrun with commercial noise.
• Relevance: Please make sure your contributions are relevant and appropriate to the forum. For example, reviews aren’t the place for rants about a business’s employment practices, political ideologies, extraordinary circumstances, or other matters that don’t address the core of the consumer experience.
• Privacy: Don’t publicize other people’s private information. Please don’t post close-up photos or videos of other patrons without their permission, and please don’t post other people’s full names unless you’re referring to service providers who are commonly identified by or commonly share their own full names.
• Intellectual property: Write your own reviews and take your own photos please![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
