Social media acceptable use policy

We reserve the right to remove (without notice) any contributions or contributors who break our rules and guidelines. We follow users who are relevant and useful to the council, but that doesn’t mean we necessarily endorse those users or any comments they make.

Although we do not take responsibility for posts made by customers or users, we aim to delete posts that are:
Defamatory, misleading or false
Abusive or threatening
Inappropriate, disruptive or offensive
Obscene, profane or sexually oriented
Discriminatory in any way
Promoting illegal activity
Promoting individual products or services
Post that contain swearing
Completely off topic

We will only share messages which we believe will be helpful or interesting to our followers.

Allegations and disclosures
Any allegations or disclosures made on this page will be passed onto the relevant safeguarding organisations as part of our duty of care.

Before elections (purdah)
In the six weeks running up to an election councils have to be very careful about what they say. Whatever type of election, if you post anything which could be interpreted as supporting a party or candidate during the pre-election period we may have to delete it.
