EMUNA website basic service is free and so is the EMUNA CMS. We offer paid plans for access to automatic software updates, cloud hosting, support, and direct download of advanced EMUNA modules and templates. We do not control what is happening on your site and we do not claim ownership for the data added to your site.
However, we expect you to be responsible for managing your site content and adhere to Imageleet Hosting (our Hosting Partner) Terms of Service. In particular, make sure that none of the prohibited items (like spam, viruses, or serious threats of violence) appear on your website.
EMUNA Acceptable Use Policy
EMUNA is a place that brings together the developers and the users of the EMUNA CMS to discuss and explore the world of Social Community development. We provide this space for meaningful discussion that is relevant and beneficial to all users - with that in mind we invite users to participate in these community forums in a way that is relevant and beneficial to others.
The following rules help everyone on EMUNA have a safe and productive experience.
Be Nice, Be Respectful
Engage with Others in a Constructive Way. Assume that everyone on EMUNA is here to make the platform a great resource - the users come with diverse backgrounds, beliefs, and opinions. It is OK to disagree, but please be civil, respectful, and considerate to other members, this includes all members of the EMUNA Team.
No Hate Speech
EMUNA is a place for discussion around the EMUNA platform and Online Social Community development in general - EMUNA does not tolerate content that attacks or disparages an individual or group based on race, gender, religion, nationality, ethnicity, political group, sexual orientation, or another similar characteristic. Any generalizations about these topics should be phrased as neutrally as possible.
No Harassment and Bullying
Abusive behavior directed towards private individuals and organizations is not allowed. That includes EMUNA employees and the company in general. Repeated and unwanted contact constitutes a form of harassment. There is no minimum service guarantee with EMUNA - it is a free space where announcements can be made, guidance given and questions raised. If your questions are not being answered quickly enough, you will need to consider direct support, which is available with paid EMUNA subscriptions.
Discussion around the use of EMUNA applications is welcomed, but if you are dissatisfied with a product or outcome, please avoid denigrating the EMUNA team in your remarks, we are all looking for constructive outcomes, and personal attacks will not be tolerated.
Be Positive and Purposeful in Your Communications
People use this platform to ask and answer questions about developing their EMUNA websites. If you have a meaningful question requiring an answer, please ask! If you can answer a question in a valuable way, please do! But in your questions and answers, please avoid the use of sarcasm or misleading information; bear in mind that many people using this platform have English as a 2nd language - so sarcasm could be misconstrued, and misleading information can cause significant umbrage to others.
Prohibited Usage
Websites using the EMUNA platform for the activities outlined below will be proactively disconnected from version updates and any support services. The following activities are considered prohibited usage and will result in immediate account suspension or cancellation without a refund and the possibility that EMUNA will impose fees and/or pursue civil remedies without providing advance notice.

Any activity or content that is harmful to minors in any way.
Communities promoting hateful or discriminatory activity based on race, color, sex, religion, nationality, ethnic or national origin, marital status, disability, sexual orientation or age.
Unsupported Usage
The following activities are not considered prohibited usage, but may be offered limited technical support. Automatic updates for such websites can still be accessed. Direct technical support and general community support may be limited to questions not including direct links, media, or content references posted publicly at EmigrantRU or via EMUNA direct email support.

Potentially Illegal Group Activity: Networks promoting illegal or harmful gatherings; denial-of-service attacks; service disruption activities; radical political or religious actions.
Endorsed Usage
We strongly believe that building generic social networks (a.k.a. "Facebook Clones") using the EMUNA platform is not beneficial for end-users. Network operators are encouraged to focus on building niche communities focused on beneficial causes. Uniting people around interests, goals, or activities that are inspiring, positive, and helpful invariably leads to overall project success. The following activities will be supported with priority.
Educational and inspirational content generation and sharing.
NGOs, NPOs, and other groups contributing towards common welfare.
Philanthropic, humanitarian, charitable networks.
Open-source and Free software initiatives.
