OC Terms & Conditions

Open Community Terms & Conditions

The STANNIX Open Community pages rules are intended to facilitate a welcoming atmosphere where users can exercise free speech balanced by common courtesy and common sense. We encourage users to take advantage of the Open Community and, by contributing, to develop its usefulness as a resource.

The rules outline what we think is acceptable behaviour and it is important that you read them carefully. Our terms and conditions are the rules governing your participation in the Open Community including in particular any comments, username, links, or images you submit ("Content"). In these terms, "Our", "we" or "us" means STANNIX.

Any personal information provided as part of this registration process and/or any other interaction with us will be collected, stored and used in accordance with our Privacy Policy. By virtue of your participation in the Open Community, you are deemed to have agreed to abide by the rules.
