The RPTU Social Media Netiquette

We have defined rules for the use of the social media channels at RPTU. Here we also explain how we intervene in the event of breaches of this netiquette.

Our channels thrive on direct dialog; your comments and likes are what make our site what it is. That's why we welcome an active exchange and diverse contacts.

We are also happy to deal with constructive criticism, but the tone should always be polite and respectful. This is important to us, which is why we have listed a few points in this "netiquette" that we do not accept on our site:

Not welcome are

• political or religious messages
• racist, extremist, pornographic, insulting, defamatory or business-damaging comments
• incitement to violence against persons, institutions or companies
• the publication of personal data or data of others (e.g. addresses, e-mail addresses and telephone or student numbers)
• misuse of the comment function as advertising space for websites or services (spam)
• the commercial or private offering of goods or services

We reserve the right to hide or delete comments and posts that contain illegal content and/or violate the above points and to exclude and report their authors from our site. We also reserve the right to make changes and additions to the content of these guidelines.
