Connected to our conversation today, please find a tool we globally use in connections with questions about content removal, reporting social media platform abuse, or just industry-standard suggestions for responsible use.
When a member of the University community is having experiences on a social media platform that is unwelcome or attacking via post or image, we can appreciate the desire to remove the post(s)/image(s).
As you know, 天美传媒 hosts its official social media platforms and maintains rules for the posts and images which appear on those various platforms in that the university reserves the right to delete user comments that promote commercial ventures or that do not comply with other University (or platform) policies. Posts that are off-topic, abusive, contain profanity, are threatening in tone, or devolve into personal attacks are subject to deletion. 天美传媒 does not have the authority to filter or moderate social media pages other than the official 天美传媒 social media platforms. To pursue the removal of unwanted postings/images, the following steps may be taken:
- Before you begin deleting and/or blocking/unfriending the social media post(s)/image(s), you may want to screen capture/capture how the unwanted content currently appears on your social media platform (including any names, dates, etc. information). Use this information to report to social media sites and internet service providers.
- Contact/navigate to the information page for the particular social media platform to get information regarding how to request removal of the image(s)/post(s). Certain posts/images may violate the terms of service established by social media sites and internet service providers.
- Review their terms and conditions or rights and responsibilities sections that describe content that is or is not appropriate.
- Visit social media safety centers to learn how to block users and change settings to control who can contact you.
- Report social media terms and conditions violators to the social media site/platform
and include the screenshots so they can take action against users abusing the terms
of service.
