The Univad community is first and foremost, educational and centered around limitless education. Univad defines our spirit as educational, instructional, engaging, and demonstrative, and we reserve the right to remove any content posted to the platform that we deem to be in opposition to this stated intention. The goal of our community is knowledge expansion, and we get there by guiding our users to flex their creative and analytical muscles, engage in genuine interactions with the community, and have a safe space to share their work.

 

While we’re devoted to maintaining an open platform, we also want Univad to be a destination for learners and doers. For this reason, classes published on the platform are moderated daily for length, teachability, subject matter, minimum education quality, and applicability. These rules can be found under our Class Guidelines.

 

The following rules apply to every user. By agreeing to our Terms of Use, you also agree to these rules.

 

Community Guidelines

 

Our teachers and students – the community – are the pulse of Univad. The following guidelines are here to help you understand what it means to be a member of Univad, whether you're interacting with each other or members of our team. Failure to abide by these guidelines may result in strikes recorded to your Univad account, removal of content, or account deletion.

 

There's a real person behind each Univad profile and support email. Univad is not a venue for you to harass, abuse, bully, or intimidate others.  Do not use public community spaces such as class discussions or Groups to dispute transactions, provide site-related feedback, or report technical issues. Instead, contact our Support team at help@Univad.com for assistance with these issues, and we’ll help you out right away.
 

The following is prohibited in any area of the site:

Self-Promotion

 

If the goal of your content or community participation is to gain engagement outside of Univad, it is likely not aligned with the spirit of the platform. The following Guidelines apply to all users on all areas of the site:

 

• Any untargeted, unwanted, or repetitive content posted to community spaces (class discussions, reviews, Groups, projects and comments, Workshops or Teach Challenge pages) may be removed.

• Within Groups, teachers may only share their own classes in the Univad Teachers Group. Check out the complete Groups Guidelines.

• If you are a teacher, self-promotion (ex: mentioning other websites you teach on, mentioning your own website, asking for followers or subscribers on other platforms), should be limited to the intro and outro videos of your class only.

• Using your profile or any community space primarily as a proxy to other websites, services, or competitors is not tolerated.
