Community Hub Terms of Service

Our terms of service can simply be summarised as … ‘don’t be a dick’.

We’re building this Hub to support professionals in the intelligence community — so we all need to keep it a productive, respectful place. Here’s what that looks like:

1. Respect the People, Respect the Ideas

We get it — debate is healthy, but personal attacks aren’t. Criticise ideas, not individuals. Harassment, hate speech, and trolling? Not on. Let’s keep it civil, even when the conversation gets challenging.

2. Keep it Above Board

You are part of a professional space, so stay within legal boundaries. This means no sharing of confidential or classified information, and no advice that crosses legal lines.

3. Post with Purpose

Make your posts count. Share useful information, ask meaningful questions, and stay relevant. Spam, self-promotion outside of appropriate areas, and off-topic posts detract from the value of this community — and they will be removed.

4. Respect Everyone’s Privacy

Don’t post anyone’s personal or sensitive info without their consent — your own info included. The intelligence community is built on trust and discretion, so let’s keep it that way.

5. Own Your Words

You’re responsible for what you post.

Wider, if you happen to see something violating these rules, give us a heads-up. We’ll act as needed. And thank you for playing your part in keeping this space healthy.

6. Use the Hub Properly

This isn’t the place to test your hacking skills or abuse the platform’s features. Use the available tools responsibly and we’ll all have a better experience.

7. Moderation Happens

We’ve got a team of moderators to help keep the peace, who aim for fairness and transparency.

Breaking these rules could result in a post being taken down or, in serious cases, losing access to the Hub.

In Short

This Hub is about learning, sharing, and professional growth. Be respectful, be thoughtful, and keep the community’s best interests in mind. When in doubt, just remember … ‘don’t be a dick’.

If you’ve got any questions, or concerns about these terms, then please reach out to us.
