You should not share any links at all times. Sending links that refer to other e-commerce, online classifieds, messaging, or social media platforms in chats is also prohibited.
Don't be creepy
Do not make inappropriate requests or remarks that will make another person uncomfortable. Making suggestive remarks or requests, sending inappropriate pictures and requesting for modelled shots of skimpy clothing items are strictly not allowed.
Don't be rude
The use of vulgarities is a big no-no on our platform. Let's all try to be nice to one another.
