Community & Privacy Guidelines

Community Guidelines

Stay Focused:
Each group within the PAC is designed around specific topics to ensure relevant discussions and resource sharing. Please help maintain the focus of conversations by keeping your contributions aligned with the group’s topic. Cross-posting to multiple groups is not allowed to avoid redundancy and keep conversations organized. If you feel a new group is needed, feel free to reach out with your suggestion.

Respect and Accountability in Dialogue:
This community is built on trust, mutual respect, and accountability. We encourage healthy debates and constructive discussions but expect members to engage with honesty, integrity, and professionalism. Disrespectful behavior, including aggressive, bullying, obscene, or otherwise inappropriate comments, will not be tolerated. Uphold a spirit of positive collaboration and problem solving. Violations will result in the removal of posts and could lead to further disciplinary action, including potential removal from the community.

Promote, Don’t Sell:
We encourage members to share their successes and projects. However, using the community for direct sales, promotions, or unsolicited services is not allowed. Keep the focus on collaboration, not self-promotion.

Maintain Privacy and Professional Boundaries:
When sharing challenges or asking for advice, avoid including identifying details about specific individuals or organizations. Keep conversations constructive and focused on finding solutions without compromising the privacy of others. Contributions to the community are intended to remain in the community. Do not screenshot, copy or otherwise reproduce peer community posts outside of the community.
