Privacy is the number one asset that we are offering our members. Members should not approach or disturb other guests during the events if they are not introduced to each other or personally acquainted or if they consider that doing so they may disrupt someone’s privacy and wellbeing. This may cause dissatisfaction of each of the parties. To sustain relaxed atmosphere and the best level of confidentiality, the club does not encourage members to take photos or videos of the events except while breaks or at the end of the event. The photos or videos of other members can be taken only with their permission. Our phone policy is one of the core rules to keep the member list confidential and in order to keep the genuine interest in becoming the part of our community.
All the information that is in the Club’s database is for maintain all record of our members and in order to study their tastes as well as work on the improvement of our events and their variety. We concern our members private information to stay in strict confidence. We can only share numbers and names upon the approval and agreement of our members to network with each other for some specific purposes.
It is important that every member respects the privacy of the WhatsApp group that was created as the very first online community of our Club before its physical existence. The abusiveness of the privacy concerns every conversation that is out of scope or out of the matter of conversation. The members of the group are liable to discuss only the event and everything that concerns the event, except for post event impressions. In order to express post event impressions, the administration is encouraging and inviting every single member to share their feelings through the private messages on our website (soon to be ready).
Every member who does not respect the rules of communication, i.e. start an argument, use bad wording or initiate an outside topic, will be expelled from the group or his participation in the group will be suspended for three days. The administration keeps its right to add/edit the additional rules to the online communication and any other from the below-listed.
