Dear users,
on the Brain City Berlin social media channels (Instagram, Twitter), we want to communicate and interact with you. We welcome an open and engaged exchange with you. However, we ask you to observe the following rules (netiquette). We reserve the right to delete, hide and/or report posts that do not comply with these rules, if necessary without giving reasons. In the event of repeated violations, we reserve the right to block the users concerned. We reserve the right to add to or amend this netiquette.

RESPECTFUL DIALOGUE
We would like to have a respectful dialogue with each other. Please therefore keep your tone polite and fair: refrain from insults, slander, defamation and provocation. Argue objectively and controversially, but never with personal attacks or ad hominem arguments. We will delete or report comments containing vulgar, violence-glorifying, discriminatory, racist, sexist, hateful, antisemitic, pornographic and/or unlawful statements or content.

STAY ON TOPIC
Your comments and mentions should always relate directly to the post in question or to the topics of Brain City Berlin. We reserve the right to delete comments that do not deal with the topic of the post. In the case of links to external websites, we reserve the right to check the linked content and delete it if necessary. Please also refrain from posting the same content several times (cross-posting).

NO ADVERTISING OR UNLAWFUL CONTENT
Please refrain from commercial messages and spamming. Offering goods and services in the comments is prohibited. The same applies to content that violates applicable law. Violations of legal provisions lead to exclusion from the discussion and may result in legal action.

PERSONAL DATA
Be careful about which personal data you publish in posts, as they are freely accessible. You must not publish personal data of third parties. To protect the personal rights of those concerned, we will delete such posts.

CORRECT QUOTING AND RESPECT FOR COPYRIGHT
When quoting, please reproduce the quotation accurately and state the source and the author. Please also respect copyright in your comments and posts. For third-party content, the rights must have been cleared.

NO FAKE NEWS
Please refrain from untrue and unsubstantiated theories and claims. We reserve the right to delete them.

RESPONSIBILITY OF USERS
Users are responsible for their comments and posts. Berlin Partner für Wirtschaft und Technologie accepts no liability for them. The copyright in comments eligible for copyright protection remains with the author. However, by publishing a post, the author permits Berlin Partner für Wirtschaft und Technologie to archive, move, delete or close the post.
