Comment Policy


We've put together a set of universal guidelines that we believe every community can benefit from and moderators can adopt. Our goal is to ensure that these set of guidelines are easy to understand and widely applicable to any community on Disqus. It's not meant to be comprehensive, rather focusing on the most commonly shared principles we believe are critical for setting a foundation in a community to enable it to thrive.


Keep it civil aka don't be a jerk

We're going to get into the thick of a lot of heated discussions and that's okay. These discussions often entail topics that we all personally care a lot about and will passionately defend. But in order for discussions to thrive here, we need to remember to criticize ideas, not people.


So, remember to avoid:

  • ► name-calling
  • ► ad hominem attacks
  • ► Responding to a post's tone instead of its actual content.
  • ► knee-jerk contradiction

Comments that we find to be hateful, inflammatory, or harassing may be removed. If you don't have something nice to say about another user, don't say it. Treat others the way you'd like to be treated.


Always strive to add value to every interaction and discussion you participate in

There are a lot of discussions that happen every day on Disqus. Before joining in a discussion, browse through some of the most recent and active discussions happening in the community, especially if you're new there.


If you are not sure your post adds to the conversation, think over what you want to say and try again later.


Keep it tidy

Help make moderators' lives easier by taking a moment to ensure that what you're about to post is in the right place. That means:


  • ► don't post off-topic comments or discussions: check the Explore page to find the appropriate channel for your topic
  • ► don't cross-post the same thing multiple times
  • ► review any specific posting guidelines for the community: some communities such as a movies community may have specific rules regarding spoilers.
  • ► check if another active discussion on your topic has already been posted

If you see something, say something

Moderators are at the forefront of combatting spam, mediating disputes and enforcing community guidelines and, so are you.


If you see an issue, contact the moderators if possible or flag any comments for review. If you believe someone has violated the Basic Rules, report it to Disqus by flagging the user's profile.


Looking for the old Channel Rules?


Stay On-topic

Be sure your topic matches the general theme of the channel. For example, all discussions on Talk Shop should pertain to fashion and beauty. Not sure if you're posting to the right channel? Check the channel's About section, or recently-added discussions to get an idea of what subjects are appropriate.


No Self-promotion

A discussion or comment that contains only a link to your blog, a product, or your article on another site will almost always be removed.


Choose Your (Curse) Words Wisely

Comments that contain profanity are automatically held for moderator review before being posted. Depending on the context of the comment, it may be removed. Profanity used to insult, antagonize, or inflame will always be removed.


Don't Be a Jerk

Personal attacks and harassment will not be tolerated. Sexist, racist, misogynist, homophobic, and broad, offensive generalizations about groups of people are simply not allowed. Comments or discussions written intentionally to provoke will also be removed.


Don't Copy and Paste

If you didn't write it, or haven't properly cited the article you're quoting, don't post it.


English Only

We currently only support English-only discussions on Disqus channels. Non-English comments and discussions will be removed.


Privacy Policy:


ToolsInsight.com is operated by Sofitech Solutions Learn how to contact us & more in our 'about' section.


Your privacy is extremely important to us. This policy sets out how ToolsInsight.com uses and protects any information collected when you use this website. It’s worth a read, but if you’re short of time, here’s the most important stuff:


  • ► We won’t collect any personal information (eg. name, email address) without your explicit permission;
  • ► We won’t send you promotional emails unless you’ve double opted in
  • ► We will never share, sell or rent sensitive information about you without your permission (unless required to by Indian law)
  • ► We have physical, electronic and managerial procedures to ensure your personal information is secure.

We hope it goes without saying that we will only use the information that we collect about you lawfully and in accordance with the India Data Protection Law. Above and beyond that, we will endeavour to use this information in a way that benefits you as a user.


When we ask you to provide information by which you can be identified when using this website, you can be assured that it will only be used in accordance with this privacy statement.


Our privacy policy may change from time to time. We’ll do our best to let you know but please do check back periodically for updates.


What Information We Collect


We will never collect sensitive information about you without your explicit consent. By ‘sensitive information’ we mean details like:


  • ► Your name
  • ► Your email address

We also use cookies to collect non-sensitive information about your use of the site. This is standard on almost any website nowadays and allows us to understand how visitors use the site: which pages are most popular, which bits don't work and so on.


How We Use This Data


We only send you promotional emails if you have explicitly double opted-in. We do not sell, rent or share email addresses, and we never will. We will only pass your data on to third parties if you have explicitly agree that we do so.


The reason we collect information like email addresses is to provide you with a better service. For example, we need some personal details to do the following:


  • ► To improve our service
  • ► Technical support (eg, if you are experiencing problems that we can't replicate)
  • ► User newsletters (you only receive this if you double opt-in to receive it)
  • ► To customise your user experience

We use non-identifying and aggregate information to better design our website and to share with advertisers. For example, we may tell an advertiser that X number of individuals visited a certain area on our website. Or that Y number of men and Z number of women filled out our registration form, but we would not disclose anything that could be used to identify those individuals.


Security


We are committed to ensuring that your information is secure. In order to prevent unauthorised access or disclosure we have put in place suitable physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.


Your IP Address


We may use your IP address for several reasons:


  • ► To gather traffic & user data using Google Analytics
  • ► To customise your user experience
