Visitor Guidelines
Remember that anyone in the world can possibly read what you write, keep the tone positive, and do not solicite donations or money. Do not try to add links to commercial sites.
Our policies in a nut shell:
If you belong here we will do everthing we can to protect you and leave you alone.
If you don't belong here, you are not entitled to any protection from us.
Our General policies
We refer to the person who is the focus of your page as the "patient" no matter the reason they are using this site. We refer to the adult who is helping the patient with this site as the "adult". Anyonee who is here in support of the patient is referred to as a "visitor". This site is free for all users: patients or visitors. There is no obligation to donate money to this site or any sponsor site or any patient's charity to use this site. If anyone solicites you for a donation, report this violation to us. No users may attract donations or contributions or sell anything on this site.
This is an online support community. All communications sent through this site must be positive and relate to the patient you are visiting. The focus of this site is keeping friends connected, not fundraising of any type. No one should ask anyone else on this site to donate to any organization. Patients may post a link to their favorite charities or other sites related to their illness, but not visitors. Visitors should direct all their messges to the patient, not to other messages or people, including other visitors. Foul, abusive, threatening, or inappropriate language will not be tolerated. If you represent a patient, please make regular updates. We know you already have more to deal with than you need, but just as the patient enjoys the words of encouragement, the visitors appreciate being kept up to date, also.
Visitors may only visit patient pages they were invited to. Patients deserve to maintain their community of friends without giving up their privacy. Visitors are only permitted on the general information pages, guest books they were invited to, and update blogs they were invited to. When we add pictures, visitors may only view picture galleries they are invited to. Visitors may only leave messages on guest books they were invited to. Before any visitor does any of this, they must register. Registering is only for the safety and protection of the whole community. We will not use your email unless necessary. We will not sell or distribute your email to anyone. Every visitor must have their own user name attached to an active email address. Visitors may not distribute a patient's private page without the patient or their adult representative's permission. The page name is a private entrance that only the patient should open to visitors.
In most cases, we do not get involved with removing a post that is only objectionable because someone disagress with it. We will not respond to say that we are not removing a post. Patients and their representative may request any post to be removed and any user to be banned. We will honor those requests without qualification. If we see something inappropriate, we will remove it, but we do not regularly monitor the boards for this purpose.
By posting any message or content on our web site, you agree that Power 2 Believe, its sponsors, and its representatives is not liable for an consequence including but not limited to other people learning private and personal information about you. You accept full responsibility for any post you make. Anything you write can be shown or seen by anyone. Keep that in mind in your messages. We cannot control what others will read or write or forward using our site.
