Safeguarding and data security
The Unibuddy Community has been created to provide a safe space for you to meet and interact with other new students also joining Solent at the same time as you. Chats are monitored for safeguarding and data security. To ensure everyone is able to enjoy Unibuddy Community, when you log into the platform you are asked to agree to the following rules:
- Be kind and courteous: We aim to create a welcoming environment, please treat everyone with respect and kindness.
- No hate or bullying: Make sure that everyone feels safe. Bullying of any kind will not be tolerated.
- No promotions or spam: Self-promotion, spam, and irrelevant links are not allowed.
- Respect everyone's privacy: Being part of these groups requires mutual trust. Discussions make group conversations great, but may also be sensitive and private. So please think twice before you post personal information.
