Rumbo Maps posting terms

Rumbo Maps has its own reviews and a board for each place on the map. Reading them needs nothing. Writing needs a NEXUS account and your agreement to these terms, which the app shows before your first review or post. They are short on purpose: they exist so that a review means a real visit and a board stays a place people want to read.

1. Honest reviews

• Review a place you have actually been to, from your own experience.
• No fake reviews, no reviews written for pay, gifts or discounts, and no reviews written for someone else.
• Do not review a place you own, work at, are paid by or compete with. Places connected to the Rumbo Maps team say so on their page, are never eligible for a Rumbo award, and their people cannot rate them.
• One review per place per account. Writing again replaces your review; you can remove it any time.

2. What may not be posted

• Harassment, bullying, threats or encouraging violence.
• Hate: attacking anyone for race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, disability, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, age or any similar trait.
• Sexual or sexually suggestive content, and anything involving minors in any such way.
• Private information about anyone: phone numbers, home addresses, licence plates, account details, or identifying a worker or another customer by name to shame them.
• Advertising, spam, links for sale, or the same post repeated.
• Anything illegal, or that promotes illegal activity, and content that infringes someone else's rights.
• Pretending to be someone else, or to speak for a business you do not represent.

3. What is public

A review (its stars and words) and a board post are public to every Rumbo Maps reader, under your NEXUS username. Never your full name or your email. You can remove your own review or post at any time. Deleting your NEXUS account deletes every review, post and flag of it. The privacy policy says exactly what the server keeps.

4. Flagging

Every review and post written by someone else has a Flag button. Choose why (spam, offensive, not a real visit, not about this place, something else). When three different accounts flag the same review or post, it is hidden from Rumbo at once, before anyone looks at it. We review what is flagged and act on anything that breaks these terms, normally within 24 hours.

5. Blocking

Every review and post written by someone else also has a Block button. Blocking a person hides everything they write from your boards, on your phone. They are not told. The list of people you blocked stays on your phone and is never sent to us. Settings → Reviews & boards → Blocked people shows the list, and unblocking is one tap.

6. What we do

• We remove or hide reviews and posts that break these terms. Nothing is altered: a post is shown as written or not at all.
• We can suspend a NEXUS account that keeps breaking them, or that breaks them seriously once. A suspended account cannot post or sign in.
• Daily limits on reviews, posts and flags apply to every account, so no one can flood a board.
• Where the law requires, we report illegal content to the authorities.

7. Report something or ask

To report content that needs attention right away, or to ask about a decision about your post or account, write to alfredo@atxnexus.com. Say which place and which post.

8. Changes

If these terms change in substance, the version number goes up and the app asks you to agree again before your next post. What you posted before stays under the terms you agreed to then.
