ITP.1.4.030 Personal posts

The Tribe recognizes that employees may post personal information on the Internet through personal websites, social media, blogs and/or uploading content to websites and the like. The Tribe respects our employee's interest in participating in these forms of personal expression on their own time. Employees should be aware; however, that problems can arise when personal postings identify or appear to be associated with the Tribe, or when a personal posting is used in ways that violate the Tribe's rights or the rights of other employees.

Each employee is legally responsible for content they post on the Internet, whether on a social network, website or otherwise. You can be held personally liable for defaming others, revealing trade secrets, confidential information or proprietary information, etc. Tribal policies apply to what you post on the Internet. For example, you may not use personal postings to harass or threaten other employees or reveal confidential tribal information. Embarrassing or unkind comments about tribal employees or members, customers, or competitors are also inappropriate. Posting anonymously or under a pseudonym, does not protect your real identity; it can be discovered relatively easily.
