Does it cost anything to join Connexion?
Nope. It's free but you must be at least 18 years of age.
Are you going to send SPAM to me or sell, rent or give my email address to anyone else?
Absolutely not!!! We never sell rent or give email addresses to anyone. If you have elected
to received email from us, you will from time to time get information about new features as
they are added to the site, but otherwise, you will received no email from us of any kind!
You can read the full privacy policy here.
What things are disclosed about me to other users?
Your email address is not disclosed. Your birth date and last name are also not
disclosed unless you explicitly permit it - and then it's only disclosed to your friends.
However, your first name is always disclosed as is your age.
Other information that you post, such as photos, etc. are disclosed.
Also, when you request to add someone as a friend, they are send your full name and email
address as a way of helping them recognize you. Since they're your friend, this should
not be something you're concerned about. If you are, then you should not add them as a friend.
Your profile is also searched by web crawlers such a GoogleBot, though you have an option
to hide your profile from web crawlers if you prefer.
What kind stuff can I put in my profile?
Your profile should not contain sexually explicit or overly suggestive material.
Such content may be deleted from your account without notice.
Your profile has to be for you and must use your real name. It cannot be for a business or
organization. If you're joining to put a free ad on the site, that would be a no no.
You should also not impersonate anyone - living, dead or fictional. Such profiles
may be deleted without notice.
A more extensive list of requirements is provided in Terms of Service.
What kind of photos can I post? If you choose to upload photos, at least one of the photos must show your face. Photos should be of yourself or you with friends. Photos should be yours, or you must have permission to upload them.
If you have to think about whether or not a picture you’re about to post is inappropriate, you probably shouldn’t upload it.
Photos that violate the guidelines will be deleted from your account and photo upload privileges may be suspended for an amount of time that increases with each infraction. The suspension is 1 day after the second violation and increases to one year after the 9th violation.
A more extensive list of requirements is provided in Terms of Service.
How are photos reviewed?
Photos that violate the guidelines will be deleted from your account and photo upload privileges may be suspended
for an amount of time that increases with each infraction. If it's believed that you are posting photos that aren't
of you, they will be removed and you might be required to submit a certification photo before posting others.
If you believe your photo has been unfairly removed, you may contact us and request that we review
the photo in question.
Approval and Removal Process
All new photos posted to the site are placed into a queue, which is reviewed periodically throughout the work day.
We give users the benefit of the doubt that they'll post acceptable photos, but in the event that they are not,
offensive photos will be removed as soon as they are spotted.
We do not single out users. We do, however, penalize users that are
repeat offenders by locking their upload capability for a certain number of days that increases with each offense.
Also, if you are a repeat offender, we will be less sympathetic to any arguments you might make.
Are there other requirements for me to be a member?
Tons of 'em...j/k. Basically we want you to be polite, repectful, reasonable and adult. Hmmm...
that almost sounds like the boy scout code. But a fuller description can be obtained
here.
Anything else?
Yes, people under 18 may not use Connexion. There are other sites and organizations that are
geared to younger people such as TrevorSpace. Links to some of other sites and organizations can be found
here.
