Respectful dialogue: We expect members to treat each other with respect. You may disagree, but it needs to be in a respectful/polite manner. Pinnacle is a safe place for people to share their ideas. Aggressive comments, harassment, hate speech, bullying, obscenities etc will not be tolerated at all. Obscene, defamatory, discriminating content will be removed. If you see abuse or inappropriate posts, please report this to us pinnacle@rarecancers.org.au

Integrity and honesty: Discussions on the forum should only be available to members of Pinnacle. Comments should never be exported or shared externally for any purpose. Pinnacle is based on an open and honest conversation, so members absolutely should not impersonate others or lie about who you are. There should only be one account and username per person. Repeated instances of sharing misinformation or lies are not helpful to the community and will not be tolerated. If you are sharing factual information about current affairs, studies/research, data etc, please include the link to a resource for others to have access to. If you are planning to use the forum for any purpose other than what it is intended for (e.g. asking opinions for research or media), you need to contact us for permission first. Contact us at pinnacle@rarecancers.org.au

Caution: Please do not post or request personal information that you would not want in a public space. Consider if a more in-depth conversation should be conducted one to one over e-mail.
