User Guidelines

TiCL is about communicating with other TiCL users near you right now. It is a fun and fast way of sharing with people what’s going on around you (and them!). The best way to use TiCL is when you are trying to communicate about something that relates specifically to where you are – if it’s not specific to where you are now, perhaps you would be better communicating some other way.

We want you to have a great time on TiCL and it is important to us that the TiCL community is a friendly and responsible place. So with that in mind, here are some guidelines and helpful tips when using TiCL.

1. Everything you post on TiCL can be seen and commented upon by other registered users. Also, the most popular contributions will appear on our home page and are available to everyone, even if they are not registered. So, if you don’t want everyone to see what you have posted, please don’t post!

2. Please try and keep your posts specific to where you are. If you post something which is not specific to your location we may remove it or move it to another part of TiCL. We’re not trying to make things difficult, but TiCL works best when it shows nearby TiCL users what is going on locally where they are. We don’t want them to be disappointed!

3. We have binding TiCL Rules which are part of our Terms and Conditions. You must comply with all of these when using the Service. Please read these carefully before you post. In particular, when using TiCL, please:

a. Keep it clean. No swearing or unpleasant language

b. Keep it legal. We will not tolerate any illegal content on TiCL.

c. Keep it original. Do not copy anyone else’s work or contributions. In particular, please don’t post anyone else’s photographs unless they have permitted you to do so.

d. Keep it pleasant. We will not tolerate bullying or harassment of any type.

e. Keep it private. Remember don’t post your name or personal details or those of other people. This includes addresses, email addresses, telephone numbers, credit and debit card details, bank account numbers and anything else which you or they would not want a stranger to know.

f. Keep it tasteful. Remember that people have different views on what is tasteful and what is not.

g. Keep it authentic. Never pretend to be someone else. Also if you are a local business, we would love you to use TiCL to promote any current offers. But please keep within the law - don’t pretend to be a customer when you are not and make sure that it is obvious to other users who you are. And don’t spam – it is annoying, we don’t like it and we may stop you using TiCL if you do.

h. Keep it sensitive. Please be aware of the sensitivities of others. Particularly with photos, make sure that they are not intrusive of other people or their privacy, do not show people in distress or in embarrassing circumstances. Do not post anything gross or in dubious taste and absolutely no full frontal nudity. Make sure if your photos are of other people, that they are happy for you to post these to TiCL. In particular, please do not post photos of children unless you are their parent or guardian or, if not, unless their parent or guardian agrees that you can post the photo.

4. If you see anything that you do not like posted to TiCL please let us know by flagging it as inappropriate. We will then deal with it.

5. Above all, have fun on TiCL. By following these rules, we hope that TiCL will be a fun, friendly, useful and informative place for all its users.

Please note that the TiCL Rules and Terms and Conditions apply. Everything you post to TiCL is “Your Content” for the purposes of the Terms and Conditions (including the TiCL Rules).
