Sign up to our Confidentiality Pledge

edited January 2023 in Help Desk
Here at The Mix we take your confidentiality really seriously. We want to make sure that The Mix is a safe place for everyone so we're asking everyone to sign up to our confidentiality pledge.


By signing the confidentiality pledge you're agreeing to help keep The Mix a safe and anonymous space for everyone, including you!
The pledge


What is said on The Mix is not repeated/posted elsewhere
We want you to feel confident that anything you share won't appear anywhere else.

By signing the pledge you agree not to talk to others about what someone has said on The Mix anywhere else. (E.g Social Media)

Don't bring something that someone shares elsewhere into a discussion on The Mix without their permission.


Your privacy is your responsibility
Think carefully about when you decide to give out your personal information and who you give it to.

If you keep your communication within the boards, chat and PMs then we can keep you safe.

If you connect outside of The Mix then your privacy is your responsibility.

Group chat pledge: Keep private conversations out of group chat
Mentioning in group chat that you're also talking to someone outside of chat (E.g Facebook) can make others feel unsafe.

It can cause them to worry that something they share might go outside of the room.

If you want to talk to someone away from group chat then do so but please keep private conversations separate and don't mention them in the session.


By replying to this thread :+1: you are agreeing to use The Mix in the spirit of this pledge

If you'd like to send us any thoughts/feedback on the pledge then you can PM @The Mix
We're @Aife, @Ella, @Emma_, @Gemma, and @JustV - the staff team here at The Mix.

Our DMs are monitored Monday - Friday (10am - 6pm) with limited cover on weekends. We have a great team of moderators looking after the community outside of those hours to check in on any reported posts.

We're not able to provide support on this account. If you need support urgently for any reason, please call 999, go to your nearest A&E or contact Crisis Messenger by texting THEMIX to 85258.

    Then those who break it, are being rather rebellious!

    Good question. What is harmless gossip for one person can have more serious consequences for another.

    What will happen if someone signs the pledge but then breaks it?

    As mentioned, we take confidentiality really seriously so if we notice that someone is disregarding the pledge having signed it then we'll take action which will likely include being in contact with that person via PM and removing any relevant posts. It may result in an enforced break from the boards and/or chat.

    If private conversations are mentioned or brought into chat people will be reminded of the pledge and asked to move on. If that doesn't happen then they risk being banned from the rest of that chat.

    The pledge may sound simple but it's key to everyone feeling at ease so we hope that you'll all take your time to think about it before you sign :)
