This Responsible Use Policy sets out detailed standards of conduct for using Unibuz, expanding on Part A, clause 7. It is the more detailed, formal companion to Part C (Community Guidelines).

1. Your Conduct Online and Offline

You are responsible for your conduct on Unibuz and in any interactions - online or in person - that arise from your use of the Platform.

2. Prohibited Conduct

In addition to the conduct prohibited under Part A, clause 7, you must not:

  • use Unibuz to arrange, promote or participate in hazing, coercive initiation rituals, or unsafe alcohol/drug-related activity;
  • use another student's identity, login credentials, or verification method to gain access to the Platform;
  • engage in stalking behaviour, including tracking another user's location, schedule or movements;
  • misuse the reporting or blocking tools - for example, by submitting false reports to harass another user.

3. Safety When Meeting Other Users

  • Meet in a well-lit, public location, ideally on or near campus;
  • Tell a friend or housemate where you're going and when you expect to be back;
  • Don't share your home address, financial details, or other sensitive information;
  • Trust your instincts - you're never obligated to go through with a meeting.

4. Blocking and Reporting

You can block another user at any time; blocked users will not see your profile in recommendations, and you will not see theirs. You can report a user, post, comment, message, listing, or event directly within the app. Reports are reviewed by our moderation team, who may warn, suspend, or ban the reported user, or dismiss the report.

5. Cooperation with Institutions and Authorities

Where we reasonably believe conduct on Unibuz may involve a serious safety risk, unlawful activity, or a breach of a university's own conduct rules, we may share relevant information with the affected user's institution, law enforcement, or another appropriate authority.

6. Academic Integrity

Unibuz must not be used to buy, sell, request, or distribute assignments, essays, exam answers, or other academic cheating services. We may report credible, serious instances to the relevant institution.
