Content policy

Empthrive is committed to fostering a professional, inclusive and collaborative community platform. As our platform evolves, we may provide users with opportunities to contribute various types of content, including but not limited to photos, reviews, success stories, articles, videos, and other professional materials.

At Empthrive, we believe in a human-first approach. While Empthrive aims to uphold professionalism, it is also a social space, and we recognise that personal experiences and emotions can sometimes influence interactions. In order to maintain a positive, respectful, and constructive environment for all users, we have created guidelines to ensure Empthrive remains a welcoming platform for everyone.

Inappropriate content
We encourage colourful and creative language, and we understand that discussing workplace experiences can be complex and emotional. However, Empthrive does not tolerate hate speech, harassment, personal threats, offensive language, or any content that is pornographic, obscene, violent, or otherwise deemed inappropriate by Empthrive, at our sole discretion. We also have a zero-tolerance policy for any abusive behaviour towards our staff, moderators, or other community members.

Promotional content
Promotional content is not permitted on Empthrive, except for relevant content provided by Partners related to their services, which must first be approved through our content review process. If you operate a website, blog, or publication, or create content related to the services we offer and would like to share it on Empthrive, please get in touch with us through www.empthrive.com/contact. We'll assess how we can collaborate. Our priority is to maintain a platform that remains useful and focused on high-quality, relevant content for our users.

Privacy
Don't publicise other people's private information. Please don't post close-up photos or videos of other people without their permission, and don't post other people's full names unless you're referring to service providers who are commonly identified by or commonly share their own full names. Irish and EU privacy laws apply, and all users are expected to respect data protection regulations, including GDPR.

Conflicts of interest
If you are affiliated with a Partner or service provider on Empthrive, your contributions should remain unbiased and objective. For example, do not exclusively promote your own services while unfairly downrating competitors. You are welcome to encourage clients and professional networks to provide honest feedback, but you must not influence or dictate their ratings or reviews. Any content deemed biased or misleading will be subject to review by Empthrive, and portions of your content may be removed at our discretion, in accordance with Irish and EU regulations on fair competition and consumer transparency.

Intellectual property
Respect originality - do not copy content from other websites, users, or sources without permission. Use your own words, images, and ideas when contributing to Empthrive. This not only ensures compliance with intellectual property laws but also makes the platform more authentic and engaging. All content shared must adhere to Irish and EU copyright and intellectual property regulations.

Terms of Use
Please see our Terms of Use to see what you agree to when using Empthrive.
