Community Guidelines

• Describe what you know first-hand or can back up. When unsure, say so.
• Credit the people who created or popularized a trick when that is known.
• Propose trick names that are actually used, and explain where they come from. Vote for the name you believe is most widely used, not the one you like best.
• Keep listings current: if your school moves or a class ends, update it.

• Write in your own words. Text you add is published under CC BY-SA 4.0, so do not paste from books, websites or course notes unless their licence allows it.
• Upload only photos and videos you made, or that you have permission to share.
• Get consent from the people who appear in your photos and videos, and from a parent or guardian for minors.

• Include prerequisites, progressions and the spotting or rigging a skill needs.
• Never present a dangerous skill as easy or encourage people to try it without a qualified coach.
• Do not post rigging or safety advice you are not qualified to give.
• Remember that the Site complements training; it does not replace it.

• No harassment, bullying, threats, hate speech or discrimination, in public content or in messages.
• Do not impersonate other people, schools or companies.
• Do not post other people's personal information (addresses, phone numbers, private photos) without their consent.
• Disagree about content, not people. Name debates are part of circus culture; keep them friendly.

• Review places you have actually trained at, worked with or visited.
• Do not review your own school or business, or a competitor's, and do not offer or accept anything in exchange for a review.
• Criticism is welcome when it is specific and fair. Personal attacks are not.

• Post real roles that you are authorized to fill, with honest pay and conditions.
• Never ask applicants to pay to apply, audition or be considered.
• Do not discriminate on grounds protected by law. Physical requirements must be genuine requirements of the role.
• Use applicants' information only to assess their application.
• No spam or unsolicited advertising in messages, listings or contributions.

Write in English or French. Listings and contributions are translated automatically and marked "Translated automatically" until someone checks them; improving a translation is a great way to help.

Contributions and new listings are reviewed by moderators before they are published. If you see something that breaks these guidelines, or receive a message that makes you uncomfortable, write to us at contact@circusconnect.com with a link to the page or the name of the member. Depending on how serious and repeated a problem is, we may edit or remove content, warn the member, or suspend or close their account.
