About this blog

Our blog rules

These are the principles we will follow on The Group blog. We welcome your comments on our posts but would ask that you respect these guidelines too.

• We will tell the truth. If we do make a mistake, we will acknowledge this and correct it promptly
• We will never delete one of our posts
• We will link to original source materials and online references
• We will reply to comments when appropriate as promptly as possible
• We will not delete comments to our posts unless they are spam, off-topic or defamatory
• We will disclose any conflicts of interest
• We will be polite. If we disagree with people, we will do so respectfully

Some behaviour is absolutely forbidden on the blog. This includes, but is not limited to:

• Posting unlawful, defamatory, obscene, threatening, offensive, harmful or otherwise objectionable content
• Posting content that violates the legal rights of others or that could damage a computer (eg viruses)
• Advertising
• Promoting illegal acts
• Revealing personal information about someone else without their permission

These guidelines are based on the Sample Blogger Code of Ethics suggested by Forrester's Charlene Li.
