Social Media Disclosure

The following describes the Social Media Disclosure for the Pivot with AI website.

Social Media Issue

We live in an interesting time when privacy rights are championed alongside an unprecedented voluntary willingness of people to share their most intimate and superfluous life details with the world. While apparently benign on the surface, the dangers of unrestrained public disclosure of sensitive information are beginning to surface.

Key social media players are being sued for unauthorized or abusive use/misuse of personal information. Lawsuits are filed seeking damages for statements held responsible for harm. A sober approach to the benefits of social media, while sidestepping the perils of imprudent disclosure, can facilitate an enjoyable online experience.

Presence/Scope of Social Media

You should assume that social media is in use on our website. A simple click of a button to endorse a person, product, or service is building a cumulative profile about you, which you should always assume can be discovered by others. Sharing a website with someone - by button or by email forwarding - may not stop with the intended recipient.

Protecting Others

You should recognize the fact that disclosures made on social media platforms are rarely constrained just to you. Disclosures are commonly made about group matters that necessarily affect and impact other people. Ideal use of social media on our website would confine your disclosures primarily to matters pertaining to you, not others. If in doubt, it's best to err on the side of non-disclosure.

Protecting Yourself

Pause to consider the long-term effects of a split-second decision to publicly share private information about yourself. Opinions, likes, dislikes, and preferences can change. Openly divulging perspectives that you hold today may conflict with your developing views in the future. Note that we are not responsible for removing content once shared, and may not be able to do so.

Restrictions on Use of Social Media Data

You are not permitted to "mine" social media or other platforms contained herein for personal information related to others. Even where people have publicly displayed data, you should not construe that as liberty to capture, reproduce, or reuse that information.

Accuracy of Social Media Data

As any social media platform is built on user-generated content, you should consider this in seeking to determine the authenticity of anything you read. We are not responsible for verifying any user-generated content for accuracy. View all such content as strictly opinion, not fact.

Potential Issues of Liability

Be mindful of the fact that your words could trigger liability for harm caused to others. While you have the right to free speech, you do not have the right to damage other people. You should consult a licensed attorney if you wish legal advice as to the (potential) ramifications of your situation.

Change Notice
