Content Guidelines

ACTEW.org is dedicated to serving the women's training community of Ontario, providing relevant, current, and reliable information about resources, services, issues and news pertaining to issues affecting women's access to training, education and economic self-sufficiency across Ontario. This policy outlines what constitutes acceptable content, as well as what content is considered unacceptable.

What is Considered "Content"?

Content is defined as any item appearing on or posted to any area of ACTEW.org, including (but not restricted to) news, events, announcements, lists, documents, messages, discussion forum postings, links, graphics, etc.

Guidelines for Posting Content

Content posted by users, or submitted by posting must be pertinent to issues affecting women's access to training, education and economic self-sufficiency across Ontario. ACTEW reserves the right to edit or reject content that is not deemed appropriate for the ACTEW web site. News, events, jobs listings, discussion board messages and resources are welcomed from non-profit and community-based organizations that are working in the employment, education, and training sectors, and the women's community. While our focus is on women's training issues, we will also post items on relevant issues such as women's housing, violence against women, settlement issues, anti-poverty resources, etc. As a non-profit agency we give priority to posting content which is free or low-cost.

Guidelines:

• Site content may not promote partisan political activities or display any information that is hateful, threatening, abusive, harassing, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, or racially, ethnically, sexually or otherwise objectionable.
  
• Activities that cause congestion or disruption of the system are not permitted. Such activities include posting large multimedia or software files, and spreading computer viruses.
  
• Personal information about other users or clients should not be posted without their prior approval. Names of clients or information that would allow another user to recognize a client must never be posted.
  
• Copyright material may only be posted with prior consent of the owner. Users who post material from another source must credit that source.
  
• As a non-profit community-based organization, ACTEW.org gives priority to posting content which is free or low-cost, and we reserve the right to reject content submitted from a for-profit source.
