These same rules apply to those who use our website as a social network. Although users own the content they post, we reserve the right to remove any content that violates our rules and transfer it to the relevant authorities as required by law.

Advertising

The Website does not usually display advertisements, but it reserves the right to do so if deemed necessary or appropriate for the content published. Advertisements will be marked as such and the Website is not responsible for the content of the advertisements.

Insurances

The right to freedom of expression and information on the Website does not include incitement to national, religious, racial, or social hatred, violence, discrimination, defamation, or disinformation. Such content is strictly prohibited.

Website visitors are not allowed to post information that violates the constitutional rights of others, including dignity, honor, privacy, or property rights. It is also prohibited to publish information on the Website that goes against general laws. Links to the Website are not allowed on websites that incite violence, discrimination, or other criminal activities.

Users of the Website are not permitted to disrupt its smooth functioning or prevent others from using it.

Hate speech, threats, and more

The expression of dissatisfaction with certain topics is allowed, but hate speech, threats, and other similar content are not tolerated on the Website. User-generated content is solely the responsibility of the users, but we reserve the right to delete or temporarily block questionnaires and cooperate with law enforcement authorities in case of physical harm or a direct threat to public safety.

To prevent harm in the real world, organizations or individuals with violent goals or engaged in violence are not allowed to register on the Website and use it as a social network to spread their ideas. This includes those involved in terrorist activities, organized violence, human trafficking, or criminal activity. We reserve the right to block their profiles and cooperate with law enforcement authorities if we detect such organizations or individuals. Content expressing support for these groups or individuals involved in such activities is also removed. However, "Mind University" is not responsible for the registered users and the content they spread.

To prevent harm not only online but also in real life, the Website prohibits the use of its social network by people seeking to organize, support, promote, or allow certain criminal or harmful activities against people, businesses, property, or animals. People can debate and discuss the legality of such activities and report any harmful or criminal activities they have encountered, as long as they do not plan or encourage harm.

Safety

The safety and security of individuals who use the "Mind University" website and mobile application are of utmost importance, which is why we make an effort to regularly seek advice from experts on various security concerns.

It is strictly prohibited for individuals to deliberately or unintentionally encourage or participate in suicidal or self-harmful behavior on the website or mobile application. However, discussions on these topics are allowed as we aim for the "Mind University" platform to be a space where individuals can openly share their experiences, spread relevant information, and find support from each other.

Self-harm refers to any deliberate and direct harm to one's own body, including self-mutilation and eating disorders. Any content that promotes suicide or self-harm is removed, including fictional content such as illustrations and any other graphic content that promotes self-harm, regardless of context. Content that ridicules or judges individuals who have attempted suicide, survived an attempt, or engaged in severe self-injury, either through humor or malice, will also be removed. Posting photos, videos, or other content that showcases cases of suicide or self-harm is strictly forbidden. Information on recovering from suicide or self-harm is permitted, but graphic content, such as photos of healing scars, may require additional warnings before being displayed.

Content that sexually exploits or puts children in danger is strictly prohibited. In cases of apparent child abuse, law enforcement authorities will be informed following applicable laws. It is known that at times, parents may share nude photos of their children with good intentions, but such content is typically removed to prevent others from misusing the photos and to avoid the possibility of someone appropriating or reusing such images.

We recognize the importance of creating a safe space to discuss and draw attention to sexual violence and exploitation. While victims are allowed to share their experiences, content that depicts sexual violence, threats, incitement to sexual violence, extortion, and other similar content is prohibited. Content that depicts, supports, or encourages sexual activity with non-consenting parties is also prohibited. To protect victims and survivors, we remove photos and other content that depict sexual violence or intimate images that are shared without the consent of the person depicted.

Bullying and harassment are also not tolerated on our platform. We promptly remove content that is considered bullying or harassment, which includes threats to disclose personally identifiable information, sending threatening messages, and unwanted malicious communications. However, we understand that context and intent are critical in determining whether content violates security standards. Therefore, users are allowed to post and share content that condemns or draws attention to the issue of bullying and harassment. If you are experiencing bullying or harassment, please contact us using the provided contact details, so we can address the issue promptly.

We also prohibit and remove content that facilitates or coordinates human exploitation, including human trafficking. Human trafficking is a business that deprives people of their freedom to make a profit. It involves exploiting people to force them to engage in commercial sex, work, or other activities against their will, through force, coercion, and deception. We take a firm stance against human trafficking and work to prevent it from happening on our platform.

Ensuring the privacy and protection of personal information is a significant concern for us. We make every effort to safeguard your data and prevent the sharing of confidential information, whether about oneself or others. Any content found to share, suggest, or solicit personally identifiable or private data that could result in physical or financial harm, including financial, residential, and medical information, as well as private information obtained from unauthorized sources, will be removed. We cannot be held responsible for user-generated content on the website, as users are solely responsible for their actions. If you come across any user sharing confidential information, you should report it to us immediately so that we can resolve the issue.

Our website is committed to combating human trafficking, a global and multifaceted issue that can impact anyone, regardless of age, social or economic status, ethnicity, gender, or location. Human trafficking involves various types of coercion, and the victims never consent to such behavior. Although human trafficking and smuggling are separate offenses, they can be interrelated or overlap. Even though people who are smuggled into a country may not be coerced, those who organize their arrival or accommodation may still exploit vulnerable individuals who are merely seeking a better life. Human smuggling is a crime against the state for illegal movement, while human trafficking is a crime against an individual for exploitation.

Bullying, harassment, and human exploitation are strictly prohibited on our website. We strive to remove content that promotes such behavior promptly. We also recognize that context and intent are crucial in determining whether the content breaches our security standards. We allow users to post content that condemns or raises awareness about bullying and harassment. If you believe that you are being bullied or harassed, you should contact us via the provided contact details. We encourage prompt reporting of such incidents to ensure swift resolution, as it is not always possible to identify or understand harassment or bullying behavior on the website.

By using our website, you agree to be held accountable for the content you post and the discussions you engage in. While we reserve the right to delete content that violates our rules, we may also block a user's profile and collaborate with law enforcement agencies if necessary. These agencies may request information and investigate violent behavior and potential crimes following applicable laws.

Unacceptable content

Content promoting hate speech is unacceptable on our website or mobile application. We believe that users should not feel attacked based on their race, nationality, disability, religious beliefs, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, serious illness, age, or any other protected characteristic. Hate speech can create a hostile environment and even incite violence, so we do not tolerate it.

Our definition of hate speech includes direct attacks on individuals based on their protected characteristics. This can include harmful stereotypes, dehumanizing or violent language, contempt, disgust, rejection, cursing, and calls for exclusion. We also consider age a protected characteristic when it is used in a discriminatory manner along with other characteristics.

Determining when criticism becomes hate speech is not universally agreed upon, as different countries have varying laws and people have different perceptions. We rely on current laws in the Republic of Lithuania and our own beliefs when deciding whether content crosses the line into hate speech. However, language can be ambiguous, and context and intent can be unclear. Therefore, we reserve the right to remove or edit the content that we deem inappropriate and amounts to hate speech.

We allow criticism of migration policy, but we do not tolerate those who incite or engage in serious attacks against refugees, migrants, immigrants, and asylum seekers. Similarly, we do not allow attacks on certain positions or characteristics, especially if they are accompanied by insults or expressions of hatred towards other protected characteristics.

We understand that some users may share hateful content to condemn hateful individuals and raise awareness, but they must make their intentions clear. If their intentions are not clear, we reserve the right to remove the content. However, there may be cases where reported hate speech is not removed because we follow applicable laws and consider the context provided. Due to differing interpretations of hate speech, some users may not be satisfied with our decisions. Nevertheless, all content is solely the responsibility of the users who posted it, and they should carefully consider whether their content may be considered hateful.

Any content that promotes or celebrates violence or takes pleasure in the suffering or humiliation of others will not be allowed on "Mind University". However, graphic content may be allowed with certain restrictions to educate people about serious issues such as human rights violations or terrorism. As different people have varying levels of sensitivity to violent content, any graphic content depicting violence should come with a clear warning that it may be disturbing to some viewers and not suitable for those under the age of 18. The user is responsible for any content they post on the site, and "Mind University" cannot be held responsible if minors or others with sensitive nerves come across graphic content.

The display of nudity and sexual activity is restricted on "Mind University" due to the potential for offense or discomfort to some users. Sexual images may also be removed to prevent distribution to minors or without the consent of the individuals depicted. Digitally generated sexual content is not allowed except for educational, humorous, or satirical purposes.

Nudity may be shared on "Mind University" for specific reasons, such as protesting or drawing attention to a problem, or for educational or medical purposes. If the reason for posting nudity is clearly stated, it may be allowed. However, nudity posted without a clear reason will not be allowed and will be removed.

Additional information

We reserve the right to remove any user-uploaded content that violates our Rules, general laws, or the legitimate interests of third parties without warning.

If we suspect or receive legitimate requests from law enforcement authorities about a violation of the law, we will provide all available user information and comply with their demands.

If any changes are made to these Rules, they will be updated on the Website.

These Rules are subject to the Common Law, jurisdiction laws of Multiverse LTD, and the laws of the place where the website operates.
