Our services are designed to promote economic opportunity for our members by enabling you and millions of other professionals to meet, exchange ideas, learn, and find opportunities for employees, work, and make decisions in a network of trusted relationships.
This is a community where we treat each other with respect and help each other succeed; it's essential for members to feel like they are in a safe place where people with shared interests populate. As such, we request that you read and adhere to the following guidelines.
Guidelines:
1. Maintain Your Professionalism
We demand professionally relevant material on the subject, such as sharing and gaining expertise, hiring and being recruited, teaching and learning new skills, and engaging in actions that help you and others to be more productive and successful. Do not share content that contains sexually explicit material or language (some adult content may be OK if the goal is clearly educational, medical, scientific, or artistic, and it is not gratuitously graphic). Interacting with individuals or sharing material in a way that is irrelevant, inappropriate, insulting, or otherwise provocative is not permitted. Do not send junk mail, spam, chain letters, phishing schemes, or any other type of fraud.
1. Exercise caution. Every member is expected to be polite and considerate when using CADS AI. On CAD AI, hate groups are not tolerated. We do not permit content that attacks, denigrates, intimidates, dehumanizes, incites or threatens hatred, violence, prejudicial or discriminatory action against individuals or groups based on their actual or perceived race, ethnicity, national origin, caste, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, religious affiliation, or disability status. Do not use racial, religious, or other insults that instigate or promote hatred or any other content designed to divide. We do not tolerate inappropriate displays of interest, desire, solicitations for a romantic connection, marriage proposals, sexual approaches or innuendo, or vulgar remarks.
Do not harass or bully: Bullying and harassment are not tolerated. This includes using abusive language, releasing personal or sensitive information about someone (known as "doxing"), or motivating or engaging others to do the same.
Do not threaten, encourage, or advocate violence: We do not tolerate any threatening or instigating violence. Individuals or groups who participate in or support violence, property destruction, or organized criminal activity are not permitted. You may not use CADA AI to express support for such persons or groups or celebrate violence in any other way.
Please do not share harmful or startling materials: We do not tolerate extremely nasty or shocking content. This includes sadistic or gratuitously graphic content, such as depictions of extreme physical violence. We also don't allow content depicting or promoting instructional weapon-making, drug abuse, and theft threats. Content or actions that advocate, organize, represent or support criminal conduct are not permitted.
Please do not post or encourage terrorist content: We do not accept terrorist organizations or violent extremist groups on our platform. Content that portrays terrorist behaviour designed to recruit for terrorist groups or threaten, encourage, or support terrorism is not permitted. Additionally, we do not permit persons affiliated with such organizations or groups to advertise their activities.
1. Be Reliable
We require you to use your genuine identity on CADS AI, give correct information about yourself or your company, and provide honest and authentic content.
Do not share false or misleading content: Do not share content that you know is or suspect is misleading or inaccurate, including misinformation or disinformation. Do not disseminate anything that directly contradicts the advice of prominent global health organizations and public health authorities. Do not share anything to disrupt or unfairly influence an election or other civic process. We may prohibit you from uploading content from sites known to generate or contain disinformation.
Do not establish a fake profile or misrepresent your personal information: We do not accept fake profiles or entities. Post no false or misleading information about yourself, your company, qualifications, job experience, connections, or achievements. Do not use an image of someone else or any other image resembling you for your profile photo. Do not link yourself on CADS AI with a company or organization you are not truly affiliated with. Use or attempt to use another person's CAD AI account or establish a member profile for someone other than yourself. Also, do not give anybody else access to your CADS AI account.
Consequences: We request that all community members report behaviour that violates our guidelines to engage@thecads.com. We will take action when we see someone violating these guidelines. Sometimes that just means giving someone a warning; other times, it means revoking certain privileges or accounts entirely.
