Social Media Terms of Use

Social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, Google+, YouTube, and Flickr encourage community engagement, user discussion, and shared content.

ACC embraces this culture of communication and wants you to join the conversation! However, such engagement with any official social page or account representing ACC must pertain to the following terms of use, or risks being removed.

Please read through the following terms of use before participating with any of ACC’s social media pages or accounts.

Though these are written specifically for Facebook, the same rules and guidelines apply when commenting or contributing on ACC’s Twitter, Google+, YouTube, and Flickr. Users of those sites must also comply with the respective official terms of use of each platform.

These rules apply to all users.
