SidewalkSnitch community guidelines

Comments are public and attached to civic reports about real places. Do not post: personal phone numbers, home addresses, license plates, or other private identifying information about individuals; threats or harassment; accusations you cannot support from what you personally observed; or spam/links. Say what you saw, not what you conclude — “I watched this happen” is different from “this business always does this,” and only the first is something you can be confident is true.

We use automated screening and community flags to catch content that violates these rules before or after it's posted. Comments that violate these rules may be held or removed. Repeated abuse may result in loss of commenting privileges.

This is not a forum for reviews of businesses — it's for factual discussion of the reported civic issue. You are personally responsible for what you post. SidewalkSnitch's moderation does not mean we agree with or vouch for any comment, and does not make us legally responsible for it — the commenter is.

If a comment is about you or your business and you believe it's false: email hello@sidewalksnitch.com with a link to the comment. We will review promptly; this is separate from and faster than the in-app flag.
