CODE OF CONDUCT
These are the rules for message board posts, communications, and general behavior on the JUICY JUICE website and when you are representing JUICY JUICE elsewhere, online or offline.
Violation of these rules can lead to member suspension or possible removal from the team. We also reserve the right to void any points accumulated by a member who is in violation of this code of conduct.
First and foremost be honest about your relationship with JUICY JUICE or the Juicy Bunch. If you are participating in word of mouth activities or otherwise spreading the word about JUICY JUICE online or offline, you must let people know you are a JUICY JUICE brand advocate or representative and sometimes receive incentives for participating in the brand's program(s). The FTC requires that all incentivized (e.g., earn points, receive prizes or product, etc.) representatives of a company or brand disclose this relationship whenever communicating about the brand. Therefore, whenever you post on your social networks or blog in reference to JUICY JUICE, you must state your involvement in the Juicy Bunch team. Sample language:
"I am a member of the JUICY JUICE Juicy Bunch team and help spread the word about JUICY JUICE. As a team member, I receive product and incentives in exchange for participating in brand related activities and spreading the word on JUICY JUICE." Twitter may require something shorter like, "Sponsored by JUICY JUICE" or "Member of the Juicy Bunch team" or start your tweet with "Sponsored" or "Spon" or "Ad."
In addition, when representing the brand "out there":
1. Be honest when you represent JUICY JUICE. Don't tweet your love of JUICY JUICE if you've never tried it. Make product statements based upon your actual experience with the product. Share your honest opinions, not hype or a sales pitch.
2. Don't make false or misleading statements about products. Visit http://www.juicyjuice.com to learn about JUICY JUICE products.
3. Don't exaggerate product benefits - you can absolutely say "JUICY JUICE tastes awesome!" but don't think about saying "it cures cancer"
4. Don't spam - repeated and blasted messages are not welcome and you want your message to be welcomed.
5. Follow the rule of the venue. Facebook and Twitter, for example, have rules on how to communicate, follow them.
6. Never impersonate another individual or entity or misrepresent the source of your post or info.
When participating in the JUICY JUICE Juicy Bunch team, there should be no:
1. Creating or utilizing technology to generate fraudulent point activity including: bots, spiders, email or IM spam.
2. Creating multiple user accounts or misrepresenting yourself in an application/registration.

4. Misuse of Nestlé assets including logos, photos or other electronic images
5. Posting images of people without their express permission. All posting must be of people 18 or older, unless posted with parent/legal guardian permission.
6. As a team member you may submit video content, links to third party websites, photographs, and text. Just make sure you have the rights to anything you post!
