Editorial guidelines: Mumsnet Bloggers Network

 

Our policy is to keep intervention to a minimum and let the blogging flow.

That said, we do not allow blogs in the Mumsnet Bloggers Network that are obscene, racist, disablist, libellous, contain personal attacks or otherwise break the law. We will ask bloggers whose blogs contain the above to leave our network, as and when their blogs are brought to our attention.

We want to build a network that focuses on great writing for its own sake. So we're open to blogs that carry the odd product review or paid link from elsewhere, within the general mix of an honest and entertaining blog. We just draw the line at blogs that focus on reviews because that's not what our network's about.

To join our network, we ask our members to adhere to both our network's Editorial guidelines and Mumsnet's Terms of Use (with one very important exception: please note that the section on copyright does not apply to bloggers. Your blog = your rights!) If you decide to join the bloggers forum, anything you post there is part of Mumsnet Talk, so it's subject to Mumsnet Talk Guidelines and Terms of Use. We encourage bloggers to read our Terms of Use fully before joining our Bloggers Network.

If your blog persistently breaks any of our terms, we'll have to ask you to leave.

The quickest way to let us know about a problematic blog is to report it by emailing bloggers@mumsnet.com. We look at every report as soon as we possibly can.

We may change this policy from time to time by updating this page, so please do check it regularly to ensure that you are happy with any changes. This policy is effective from April 2011. Please feel free to email us if you have any questions or concerns.
