Community Guidelines · Cosmo Aura™

Welcome to the Cosmo Aura community
Cosmo Aura is a space for thoughtful writing, respectful discussion and shared learning. Different perspectives are welcome. These guidelines apply to articles, reviews, comments, photographs and account activity.

1. Discuss ideas with respect
Challenge an argument without attacking the person who expresses it. Do not post threats, harassment, hateful or discriminatory language, sexual harassment, or encouragement of violence. Disagreement should help readers understand an issue rather than intimidate anyone.

2. Keep contributions relevant and honest
Comment on the article you have read. Share your own experience and make clear when you are expressing an opinion. Do not impersonate another person, invent endorsements, manipulate ratings, publish knowingly misleading claims, or present someone else's words as your own. Give sources or attribution when quoting or referring to another person's work.

3. Protect privacy
Do not publish private addresses, phone numbers, identity documents, passwords, financial information, private messages or another person's personal photographs without permission. Avoid including sensitive personal information in your own public comments. Contact the editorial team privately when an issue requires confidential information.

4. Share photographs responsibly
Upload only photographs you created or have permission to share. Images must relate to your contribution and respect the dignity and privacy of anyone shown. Do not upload explicit sexual material, graphic violence, abusive imagery, malware or disguised executable files. The upload form lists supported image formats and size limits.

5. No spam or disruptive activity
Do not post repeated comments, irrelevant promotions, deceptive links, scams, phishing attempts or requests for passwords or payments. Do not use the discussion area to advertise unrelated products or services, coordinate harassment, or disrupt the website.

6. Accounts, reviews and ratings
Verify your email before commenting or rating an article. Use your account honestly and keep its password private. Ratings should reflect your reading experience, not a personal dispute with an author. You may edit or remove your own visible comments. A hidden comment cannot be edited to bypass a moderation decision; use the appeal process instead.

7. Editorial moderation
An administrator may flag or remove a comment that breaches these guidelines. Flagged and removed comments are hidden from public view. The account holder receives, or is queued to receive, an email explaining the reason and how to appeal. A moderation decision concerns the contribution; disagreement with the author's viewpoint alone is not a reason to silence a respectful reader.

8. Appeals and restoration
If you believe a decision was incorrect, reply to the moderation email or use the appeal address included in it. Include the comment reference number, article title and a concise explanation. An administrator will review the appeal and may restore the comment. Restoration is a human editorial decision, not an automatic result of sending an appeal.

9. Report a concern
Use the Contact directory to reach the editorial team about abusive content, privacy concerns, suspected impersonation, copyright concerns or technical problems. Include the article link and enough detail to identify the issue. Do not repeat harmful or private material publicly while reporting it.

10. A shared commitment
Authors and readers help shape the quality of this space. Be curious, give others room to respond, acknowledge corrections and contribute in good faith. The editorial team may update these guidelines as the community develops. The version displayed on this page is the current guidance.
