Terms of Service and Membership
The Dairy Hub utilises technologies and services that enable people to connect with each other, build communities, and share learnings. These Terms govern your use of the Dairy Hub and the other products, features, apps, services, technologies, and software we offer, except where we expressly state that separate terms (and not these) apply.
We don’t charge you to use the Dairy Hub or the other products and services covered by these Terms. We don’t sell your personal data to advertisers, and we don’t share information that directly identifies you (such as your name, email address or other contact information) with advertisers unless you give us specific permission.
Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect and use your personal data. You can also go to your profile settings at any time to review the privacy choices you have selected and to review how we use your data.
1. The services we provide
Our mission is to give people the power to build a community of practice and bring the world closer together. To help advance this mission, we provide the Products and services described below to you as a personalized experience for you. Your experience on the Dairy Hub is unlike anyone else’s: from the posts, stories, events, and other content you see in News Feed or our video platform to the Profiles you follow and other features you might use.
We use the data we have, for example, about the connections you make, the choices and settings you select, and what you share and do on and off our Products, to personalize your experience. Through the Dairy Hub, we connect you with people and organizations you care about: We help you find and connect with people, groups, businesses, organizations, and others that matter to you across the Dairy Hub site. We use the data we have to make suggestions for you and others – for example, groups to join, events to attend, Profiles to follow or send a message to, and people you may want to connect with.
Stronger ties make for better communities, and we believe our services are most useful when people are connected to people, groups, and organizations they care about. We aim to empower you to express yourself and communicate about what matters to you: There are many ways to express yourself on Dairy Hub and to communicate with others about what matters to you – for example, sharing status updates, photos, videos, and documents across the Dairy Hub you use, sending messages to a friend or several people, creating events or groups, or adding content to your profile.
People will only build a community on the Dairy Hub if they feel safe. We employ a dedicated team and develop advanced technical systems to detect misuse of our Products, harmful conduct towards others, and situations where we may be able to help support or protect our community. If we learn of content or conduct like this, we will take appropriate action – for example, offering help, removing content, removing or restricting access to certain features, disabling an account, or contacting law enforcement. We share data with other companies when we detect misuse or harmful conduct by someone using one of our Products and we develop automated systems to improve our ability to detect and remove abusive and dangerous activity that may harm our community and the integrity of our Products.
In addition, we research ways to make our services better. We engage in research to develop, test, and improve our Products. This includes analyzing the data we have about our users and understanding how people use our Products, for example by conducting surveys and testing and troubleshooting new features. Our Privacy Policy explains how we use data to support this research for the purposes of developing and improving our services. Our Products help you find and connect with people, groups, businesses, organizations, and others that are important to you. We design our systems so that your experience is consistent and seamless across the Dairy Hub. To operate our global service, we need to store and distribute content and data in our data centers and systems around the world, including outside your country of residence. This infrastructure may be operated or controlled by the hub representatives or its affiliates.
2. Your commitments to the hub and our community

To help support our community, we encourage you to report content or conduct that you believe violates your rights (including intellectual property rights) or our terms and policies.
