Social Media netiquette

Netiquette for our dialogue in social networks.

Dear customers, friends and fans of the TÜV NORD GROUP,


On our social network pages, there are numerous opportunities to rate our posts, comment on them or enter into direct dialogue with us. We take every post seriously and would prefer not to delete any user comments. In order to achieve this, we ask you to observe our netiquette for fair and factual communication.

Contributions that we and the community are happy to receive (even if you have a different opinion) are...

  • Relevant, constructive and stimulating
  • Open and friendly
  • Respectful and tolerant

Contributions that we all do not like to see, are...

  • Abusive criticism, verbal abuse and insults
  • Racist, offensive, discriminatory or youth-endangering content
  • SPAM posts with links that are obviously only used for your own advertising
  • Obviously untrue statements of fact
  • Attacks on human dignity
  • Violation of German and international law, e.g. copyright law
  • Advertising for political parties, associations or comparable organisations by third parties
     

    Should we nevertheless find such posts, we reserve the right to delete these posts in the interests of all users.

Pay attention to personal data

Dialogues in social networks usually take place in public. Therefore, the following principle applies: Personal data such as telephone or account numbers should never be published on publicly visible pages! If we become aware of such posts containing personal data, we reserve the right to delete them for our own protection.
