Social Media Guidelines | Sammons Financial Group

Social Media Community Guidelines

Thank you for visiting Sammons Financial Group and its companies on social media! We love to share content that we think you’ll find useful in your lives, which can help you be healthier—both financially and physically. We also like to interact with our fans and share what we’re up to in our communities and how we’re doing our part to make our communities better together.

However, because our social media sites are public, it’s important that we make our ground rules clear to everyone from the start: meaning, what’s okay and what’s not okay.

On public social media pages, anyone can see your posts. Your posts and comments can even show up in  results (like on Google or Yahoo!). While we want to foster healthy discussion, we may occasionally remove posts that don't fit our community guidelines.

Because our social media pages are public, and anyone can participate, we cannot be responsible for views expressed other than our own.

We encourage everyone to:

  • Stay on topic, use common courtesy and be respectful of others
  • Submit your own original content, and avoid content that you know to be fraudulent
  • Do not post someone else's copyrighted work unless you have permission
  • Never post personal, identifying or confidential information

A community of respect

In order to create a positive and engaging environment for users among our Sammons Financial Group social media accounts, we ask all users to treat each other with respect. Users may disagree with an idea; however, they must be respectful of others at all times. Insults, threats or harassment of other users, organizations or employees are prohibited.

We will not tolerate and reserves the right to delete - to the full extent that each respective social media platform allows - posts or comments that;

  • are defamatory, indecent, hateful, racist, xenophobic, homophobic, sexist, disgraceful, vulgar or inappropriate;
  • encourage or suggest illegal activity, announcements from labor or political organizations and unintelligible or irrelevant posts.

Everything is public

Nothing is private when posting or commenting on a public feed. Once "send" is clicked, the post or comment can be indexed and can turn up in search engines even years later. It is important to ensure that you do not say something that you might regret later. Do not post or comments anything that you would not want others to know. Remember that the information you share on a public feed may be captured, stored, accessed, potentially disclosed and used inappropriately by others.
