CODE OF CONDUCT
This is the code of conduct that every participant agrees to adhere to.
You will be frequently asked to offer your opinion on a variety of topics related to Penn State Athletics, The Pennsylvania State University, your fan experience, or other general behaviors and preferences. Please try to keep your responses organized to the specific topic being asked.
We will always be asking for honest and transparent responses, both positive and negative, to allow for Penn State Athletics to best improve our business, fan experience, strategy, and more to best serve both our student-athletes and our fan base. Remember that words and responses submitted in high emotion may be more reactionary than long term or constructive opinions, so please do your best to keep your feedback as calm and constructive as possible.
We have chosen you to be a participant in the Program for a reason, and do not intend for invitations, survey links, topics being shared, or any other content to be shared with the general public. We expect all participants to keep invitations, surveys, questions, and similar content confidential to only members of the Program. We will monitor online forums and social media for potential sharing of information, and will notify members who breach this expectation.
By participating in the NLFP, you agree to not submit feedback, answers, or information containing any following:
- Language that is harassing, threatening, or directed at a specific person.
- Language that is vulgar, obscene, or indecent.
- Statements that are bigoted, hateful, or racially offensive.
- Responses that advocate illegal activity or illegal intentions.
- Advertisements or any form of commercial solicitation.
Responses to any surveys that violate the above terms will be carefully reviewed, and members who do so will be notified upon each violation. Depending on the nature or repetition of the violations, Penn State Athletics may terminate or replace a participant.
