Netiquette
SOCITAS Netiquette
SOCITAS GmbH & Co. KG maintains its own accounts on the social media platforms Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, and YouTube. This allows us to connect directly with current and future customers as well as employees and engage in dialogue with them. The following netiquette guidelines apply to communication on these social media platforms.
Dear Users,
we are pleased that you are using the social media platforms of SOCITAS GmbH & Co. KG. We look forward to lively and engaging dialogs with you. You are welcome to participate in discussions with comments and posts. However, we ask that you adhere to the commenting guidelines. If these rules are not followed, we reserve the right to delete content if necessary and to report it to the respective platform operators.
1. Respectful Interaction
Always maintain a fair and polite tone in your posts and remain objective: Treat other users the way you would like to be treated yourself. Never resort to personal attacks or arguments directed against individuals. Allow users to express their opinions and do not attempt to impose your views on others. Posts containing insults, obscenities, personal attacks, or racist, anti-Semitic, homophobic, or sexist remarks will be consistently deleted by us or reported to the respective platform operators; the authors will be blocked by us. The same applies to posts written in vulgar, abusive, or hateful language, or that infringe on the rights of third parties or copyrights.
2. Stay on Topic
Our Facebook and Instagram channels, LinkedIn posts, and YouTube videos provide information about events, product-related content, and topics related to our company. Therefore, comments should also relate to the respective topic. If this is not the case, we reserve the right to remove comments as necessary.
3. Improper Use
The improper use of the various social media channels as advertising space for other websites or services, as well as the commercial or private offering of goods and services, is not permitted and will result in the deletion of the post or the reporting of the post. Content, information, software, or other material that violates applicable laws may not be posted.
4. Quotes and Images
If you wish to include a quote in a post, please also cite the source and the author. Only quotes and source citations that can be verified by other users should be used. When posting images, please ensure that you hold the rights to them. Links to external websites should be used sparingly whenever possible.
5. Responsibility
We assume no responsibility for users’ posts; this responsibility lies with the individual user.
6. Violations of Commenting Rules
As the operator of these social media channels, we will not tolerate violations of the commenting rules listed here. We reserve the right to delete or report posts at any time, including without providing a reason if necessary. By interacting on our social media channels, you agree to these guidelines. Violations of general laws and regulations may, under certain circumstances, result in exclusion from the respective platform and, in serious cases, lead to legal action.
7. Inquiries
We always strive to answer questions and respond to posts. If you contact us in the evening or on the weekend, we will be happy to address your inquiry on the following business day.
If you’d like to contact us outside of our social media channels, please send us an email (info@socitas.de) or call us at 0 2645 976899-0 (Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.).
Thank you for your understanding, and we look forward to hearing from you!
Your SOCITAS Team
