Code of Conduct

You agree that we may modify terms of this Code of Conduct from time to time at our sole discretion, which we will do by updating this page. If you do not agree with the terms below, you should stop using our site immediately. Failure to adhere to this code of conduct and the terms of use may result, among other things, in termination of your account and the deletion of content that you have posted with or without notice, as determined by Bruker Corporation at its sole discretion.

This community forum values free expression and a vigorous exchange of opinion. We are committed to enforcing standards of civility. We encourage users to post high quality, acceptable content, and we will delete unacceptable comments, or anything that constitutes a blatant violation of common decency in civil discourse.

By accepting to be an active participant in this forum, you agree to the following:

  • You will show courtesy and good will towards other members and users.
  • You will not post content that is offensive to our community, such as photos, videos, messages, or events that promote racism, bigotry, hatred or physical harm of any kind against any group or individual.
  • You will not harass or advocate harassment of another person, such as by sending inappropriate messages, stalking, or posting inappropriate comments.
  • You will not distribute or disseminate inappropriate, unauthorized or unsolicited advertising or promotional offers including, but not limited to, spam, contests, sweepstakes, barter, junk mail, chain letters, and pyramid schemes.
  • You will not invade privacy by attempting to collect, store, or publish private or personally identifiable information, including, but not limited to, password, account information, email, credit card number, address, or other contact information.
  • You will not use the site to obtain personally identifiable information, or to solicit, sell, or promote to any member inappropriately.
  • You will not impersonate another member, celebrity, or otherwise falsely represent yourself. We appreciate members that are proud of who they are at all times. We do not allow anonymous comments. We require forum users to supply a valid email address before they can post, though we allow users to identify themselves with an alias, rather than their real name.
  • You will not post information that would be considered libelous or knowingly false.
  • You will not copy or reuse other members' content, such as their photos or videos, without their permission. You will not post any information that may infringe upon any copyright, trademark or trade secret of any third party. If you quote or excerpt someone's content, it is your responsibility to provide proper attribution to the original author.
  • You will not engage in "friend spam" (amassing a large number of contacts on the site for promotional purposes or personal gain).
  • You will not solicit passwords or personal information from anyone.
  • You will not post any material that contains software viruses or any other computer code, files or programs designed to interrupt, destroy or limit the functionality of any computer software or hardware or telecommunications equipment.
  • You will not create "trolling" posts (deliberately posting false or provocative information in order to elicit responses from people who would not respond if they knew the motivation behind the post).

We define and determine what we call "unacceptable content" on a case-by-case basis, and our definitions are not limited to this list.

We will review and may act immediately upon any complaints from our members. We reserve the right to investigate and take appropriate legal action, in our sole discretion, against anyone who violates these terms. When we encounter comments or blog postings that are offensive or misrepresentative, we will connect privately before we publish any posts or comments about the issue. If we delete a comment or link, we will say so and explain why.

If you have any concerns or comments about this site, please feel free to contact us - nanoscaleworld@bruker-nano.com - immediately.
