• You are legally required to identify yourself as a CSB employee if you post any comment that promotes or endorses the School in any way on any personal website, web blog, or social networking website, whether your own or that of another person or entity. If you choose to identify yourself as a CSB employee on personal websites, social networking websites, or web logs, you are expected to post a disclaimer in a prominent location making it clear to your readers that the views expressed on your site do not necessarily reflect the views of CSB. (e.g., “The views expressed are mine alone and do not necessarily reflect the views of my employer.”) • If you choose to discuss school-related information in any posting, you must not publish copyrighted material without the permission of the copyright owner, which could be the School or a third party, nor may you cite or reference the School’s students. • You may not disclose the confidential, sensitive, and/or private information of the School, its employees, students, families, vendors, or other third parties. This includes, but is not limited to, academic, financial, marketing, performance, and other business information. If you are unsure whether it is appropriate to post certain information, please check with the Headmaster. • Respect your audience and your coworkers. If you have disagreements or problems with the Company, your fellow employees, or our customers, partners, or vendors, we request that you not engage in personal attacks but instead respectfully disagree with them. Obviously, when referring to Company employees or our affiliates you may not post statements that are obscene, defamatory, profane, libelous, threatening, harassing, or abusive. Also prohibited are comments about your fellow employees that are derogatory with respect to race, religion, sex (including breastfeeding and conditions related to breastfeeding), gender (including gender identity and gender expression), sexual orientation, color, disability, or any other legally protected characteristic, or that are sexually suggestive, humiliating, or demeaning. Such statements may not only expose you to liability, but also violate the Company’s Anti-Harassment policy. This policy is not intended to infringe in any way on CSB employees’ legal rights to discuss the terms and conditions of their employment with other employees for their mutual aid and benefit. Instead, it seeks to balance the School’s legal duties and legitimate business objectives with employees’ protected rights in this regard. To summarize, when you use Social Media, use good judgment. Be aware that there may be consequences to what you post or publish online. Violations of this policy may result in disciplinary action up to and including termination of employment if the conduct violates School policy or if the School determines that your posting or publication is not legally
