Community Guidelines
Surefire Bookings is a place where
anyone can create or find live experiences and services that fuel their
passions and meet their needs. As both an organisation that cares about
diversity of thought and a global platform that fosters a vibrant community, we
are committed to providing a safe, well-lit environment for live experiences
and services. We may not agree with every view or opinion expressed at every
event, but we strongly believe in the fundamental right to free speech and
assembly. To help you understand what is acceptable on Surefire Bookings and what
crosses our line, we created this set of Community Guidelines:
Do's
1. Create
Events of All Kinds: Whatever is your interest either related to Music,
Festivals, Charity or Theatre, you're free to create events that bring your
community together.
2. Create
Services of All Kinds: Whether you're a driving instructor, beauty technician,
teacher, nanny, or looking to use your skills to help out in your community, you're
free to create services that would help you achieve this either as a full-time
job or an extra earning.
3. Respectful
Content: We highly encourage the use of content that celebrates different
cultures, countries, and voices. Express yourself and inspire our community
with your unique perspective and insight.
