State of Michigan – Social Media Community Guidelines

Updated November 2013

Social media usage by the State of Michigan (SOM) is intended to extend traditional channels of constituent engagement and transparency. Communication on social platforms is a two-way conversation; however when necessary page administrators reserve the right to remove user generated content or comments in accordance with this Policy.

Posts may be removed for any of the following reasons, at any time:

- The use of obscene, threatening, discriminatory or harassing language

- Disclosure of information which is confidential by law or regulation

- Comments advocating illegal activity or posts violating copyrights or trademarks

- Advertisement or promotion of commercial products, services, entities or individuals

- Endorsement or opposition of any person campaigning for election to a political office or promoting or opposing any ballot proposition

- Duplicative comments by the same user or multiple users. In the case of identical comments, we will approve the first submission only.

Keep in mind all users, including administrators, are subject to the Terms of Service (TOS) of the host site. Communications made through social technology in no way constitute a legal or official notice to the State of Michigan, its agencies, officials or employees. References to third party content or websites do not indicate endorsement or responsibility on behalf of the SOM.
