Social Media Terms of Service
The Port of San Diego may create one or more social media sites, the purpose of which shall be to communicate information to the public about District projects, programs and activities. Social Media Accounts are not an official means for members of the public to communicate concerns to the District. Any notices or requests for District services must be made via communication methods identified on the District’s website, or by traditional methods of notification recognized by the District. No comments or posts on a District social media site will be construed as providing notice to the District of any claim, deficiency, dangerous condition, request, or other matter.
The Port of San Diego will monitor comments posted to District social media sites to the extent possible and practicable. The District reserves the right to remove or hide any comment that is deemed in violation of the District’s social media policy, or any applicable law, including, but not limited to, comments that support or oppose political candidates, campaigns or ballot measures; are spam; incite violence; threaten or defame any person or organization; are abusive or offensive, or contain profane language or content; include sexual content or links to sexual content; violate the intellectual property rights of another party; promote illegal activity; promote commercial products or services; promote discrimination on an unlawful basis; are not topically related to the original posting; or contain information that may tend to compromise the safety or security of the public or public systems.
The District reserves the right to remove or hide articles, messages, posts, comments, images, video or other content containing any of the prohibited content described above as soon as possible. Comments posted by a member of the public on a District social media site are the opinion of the commenter, and publication of comments does not imply endorsement of or agreement by the District, nor do such comments necessarily reflect the opinions or policies of the District.
Please keep in mind that posts and comments are public and subject to disclosure.
Social media accounts are not monitored 24/7. The District disclaims any and all responsibility or liability for any materials that the District deems inappropriate for posting which cannot be removed in an expeditious and otherwise timely manner. For emergencies, members of the public should call 911.
