Our rules of netiquette

We look forward to your comments and opinions on our social media posts. It is important for us that all our users feel welcome and respected. When using social media channels, please follow the following rules:

  • Make sure that your comments are objective, polite and respectful. Consider whether you would like to be addressed in the same way.
  • Do not insult, slander, defame or provoke others. Do not post comments with content that is vulgar, discriminatory, racist, sexist, hateful, illegal, or that glorifies violence.
  • Please do not post commercial content.
  • Comments should refer to the post's content.
  • Remember that all posts are visible to all users. This is why it is especially important that you do not post any contact details, phone numbers or other private information – especially not those of other persons.
  • The languages used on the university's social media channels are German and Englisch. We ask you to do the same so that others can understand you, too.

The University of Konstanz reserves the right to document violations of this netiquette and delete corresponding posts, or to exclude the respective user from taking part in future discussions.

Thank you very much!
