Consultant’s Trusted Network (CTN) Etiquette
CTN is a Professional Peer Network © (PPN) for independent consultants across industries and economic sectors, globally.
CTN is a trusted network in which members enjoy the privilege of offering and extending trust, and expecting trust in return. As such, this is a self-moderating network. Our aim is to provide a global forum for independent consultants to exchange information, engage in discussion and debate, buy and sell products and service, all with a view to developing themselves, enhancing the reputation of their practice and the profitability of their business.
MEMBERS SOON FIND IT UNNECESSARY TO FORM THEIR “OWN” NETWORKS WITHIN THIS NETWORK. THE ENTIRE NETWORK IS THEIR NETWORK! Members are encouraged to form public (open) and private (closed) groups as needed (see terms and conditions here), to engage in constructive dialogue, further a project, or find ways of working together for mutual professional and monetary benefit.
These guidelines are intended to encourage and promote an environment of shared values, mutual respect and trust. To this end, this network does not offer or promote “grades” or “classes” of membership. ALL independent consultants who join this network are peers, equals before each other. This ethos is embedded across the network and is reflected in the single rate of membership fees, deliberately kept affordable for all.
These guidelines outline generally agreed terms of communication conduct over the internet, and the terms and conditions governing membership and the responsibilities of being a member.
All members enjoy the freedom to contribute to discussion forums, submit and circulate articles and documents, comment on, dialogue and reflect on articles published within the site, and advertise and exchange goods and services related to their practice as independent consultants.
CTN reserves the right to remove any post or postings which do not adhere to these guidelines, or take further appropriate action when required and as needed.
PLEASE CAREFULLY READ THE FOLLOWING:

CTN is NOT an MLM or network marketing company and will not accept any kind of activity that is or remotely resembles MLM or network marketing within its highly valued trusted network. Groups cannot be formed as a disguise or to front a member to recruit MLM or Network Marketing associates, or offer products and services through this prohibited form of selling.
Members found in breach of the above and the following will be barred from membership (without recourse to refund) and all post, blog, advertisement, profile or similar will be removed without notice or explanation:

Sending "spam" or repeated messages
Using inappropriate language or behaviour, remark, threat or innuendo understood to be racial, communal, or sexual and/or offends the sensitivities of any person or people
giving out any personal information on or about anyone else

Please be polite and respectful towards other members of the community, and remember that others may not always share your point of view. Disruptive, offensive, abusive and illegal behaviour, language and activities will not be tolerated. CTN reserve the right to take appropriate action when requested by a community member. Posts and postings which breach anything contained herein, will be removed and further course of action will not be entertained.
Please remember, your conversing, debating and dialogue styles may seem engaging to you, but may be perceived as intimidating or threatening to others.
You are responsible and legally liable for any and all content you post. Where it relates to an existing discussion topic or article, please ensure it is relevant and accurate, and will prove useful to other members taking part.
Please keep the content across the site, on the topic of the practice of consulting and related issues.
You are also responsible for copyright and trademark infringement. Please do not post copyrighted material or use trademarks in your messages unless you hold the copyright or have received permission from the author or owner of the trademark, except in the case of quoting, where you must mention your source and acknowledge the author(s).
Please do not use CTN for inappropriate self-promotion. Various forums have been created in which you may promote your skills, professional service ideas and thoughts. We welcome collaboration with other networks but not a series of links to them without direct relevance to the discussion (e.g. repeated linking from comments). If you have a reasonable cause for promotion or would like to be sponsored in some form, please contact sales@ctnglobal.net
Please consider other users at all times when using the interactive spaces and features on this network. Behaviour which deters other members from engaging with the community is considered both offensive and restrictive. Please allow other members to contribute and do not dominate discussions. Moderators are also authorised to remove members from discussions, blogs or similar.
As a global community of independent consultants, language and the use of words vary. Keep language simple and clear for the sake of better communication and harmony.
CTN offers a variety of “spaces” across the website to encourage interaction and engagement in various and different ways. Please post appropriately (e.g. do not post “events” in classifieds, or products for sale in technical dialogue)
Please do not use additional html code within postings or attach images, as this could alter or interfere with the way the site is designed to function. Contributions containing code which causes disruption to the site in this way will edited or removed.

We use your Personal Information to better understand your requirements of your membership in CTN. We may as needed, inform you of new features, services and products from CTN unless you opt-out of such notices. You can control the use of your data using "account settings"
All your personal data are processed by CTN in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998.

CTN is obliged under the Act to ensure all data processed are correct and current, but we ask you to review and update your personal information at any time.
By its very nature and purpose, the CTN website is a medium by which you as a professional consultant and business person seek to make contact with your peers. Other members may contact you via the CTN forums, the private messaging system, via export contact tools, via mass mailing newsletter tools or directly to your e-mail addresses if visible on your profile. You can choose to stop receiving private messages and messages sent via the mass mail tools at anytime. All the personal information you enter onto the CTN site and choose to be displayed, will be viewable by any other member, by members who may export and save this data, or any casual visitor to the site, including search engines which index the pages of the CTN website. We cannot accept responsibility or liability for any processing conducted outside the remit of our services.
During your CTN membership registration process, or at any time thereafter, you can determine the information you wish visible, via the Privacy and Display settings when logged in, and by choosing not to provide this information where this information is optional.

YOU MUST PROVIDE CURRENT, COMPLETE AND ACCURATE INFORMATION FOR YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT IN ORDER TO RECEIVE THE PRODUCTS ORDERED. YOU MUST PROMPTLY UPDATE ALL INFORMATION TO KEEP YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT CURRENT, COMPLETE AND ACCURATE (SUCH AS A CHANGE IN EMAIL ADDRESS, BILLING ADDRESS, CREDIT CARD NUMBER, OR CREDIT CARD EXPIRATION DATE), AND YOU MUST PROMPTLY NOTIFY CTN LTD IF YOUR PAYMENT METHOD IS CANCELLED (FOR EXAMPLE, FOR LOSS OR THEFT) OR IF YOU BECOME AWARE OF A POTENTIAL BREACH OF SECURITY, SUCH AS THE UNAUTHORISED DISCLOSURE OR USE OF YOUR USER NAME OR PASSWORD.

Prices for all Products exclude all applicable taxes and telecommunication charges, unless expressly stated otherwise. To the extent permissible by law, you agree to be responsible for any applicable taxes and telecommunication charges, whether or not such amounts are itemised on your Online Statement or charged to your Billing Account or Payment Method. Currency exchange settlements will be based on your Payment Method and may be determined by agreements between you and the financial institution, credit card issuer or other provider of your chosen Payment Method (the "Payment Method Provider"). If the amount to be charged to your Billing Account varies from the amount you have preauthorised, you have the right to receive, and CTN LTD shall so provide, notice of the amount to be charged and the date of the charge at least 10 days before the scheduled date of the transaction. Any agreement you have with the Payment Method Provider will govern your use of that Payment Method. You agree that CTN LTD may accumulate charges incurred during one or more of your monthly billing cycles and submit them as one or more aggregate charges at any time. CTN LTD MAY SUBMIT ALL PERIODIC CHARGES (FOR EXAMPLE, MONTHLY) FOR YOUR CTN LTD SUBSCRIPTION, OR FOR ANY OTHER FEE-BASED SERVICE YOU ORDER THAT WILL BE CHARGED ON A MONTHLY OR OTHER PERIODIC BASIS, ON SUCH MONTHLY OR OTHER PERIODIC BASIS WITHOUT FURTHER AUTHORISATION FROM YOU, UNTIL YOU PROVIDE PRIOR NOTICE (CONFIRMED IN WRITING UPON REQUEST) THAT YOU HAVE TERMINATED THIS AUTHORISATION OR WISH TO CHANGE YOUR PAYMENT METHOD.

Your continued use of the Products and services on your Billing Account reaffirms that CTN LTD is authorised to charge your Payment Method. CTN LTD may submit those charges for payment and you will be responsible for such charges. Those submissions will not waive CTN LTD's right to seek payment directly from you. Your charges for CTN LTD subscription services are monthly, quarterly or yearly in advance, and the charges for any other Product may be payable in advance, in arrears, or as otherwise described when you initially ordered the applicable Product. Certain services associated with CTN LTD subscription services may require the payment of additional fees (including, without limitation, set-up, repair, additional equipment, missed appointment, line maintenance, upgrade and repair, initial activation and reactivation, transfer and relocation) and you agree to pay such pre-approved fees at the prices then in effect as specified for such service to either CTN LTD or its designated service provider.

You are solely responsible for determining whether the access number you use is subject to any additional charges. It is your responsibility to contact your telephone company to determine whether the access number you select is subject to additional charges. You agree to pay any charges you incur by using a long distance telephone number to connect to CTN LTD subscription services, including those that may be billed to you by a third party. CTN LTD will not reimburse you for any charges incurred by you as a result of selecting an access number that is subject to additional and/or long distance charges.

Subject to applicable law, you agree that the Online Statement is the only statement of your Billing Account that CTN LTD needs to provide to you. YOU ALSO AGREE THAT IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO PRINT OR SAVE A COPY OF YOUR ONLINE STATEMENT AND TO RETAIN THIS COPY FOR YOUR RECORDS. CTN LTD will use commercially reasonable efforts to correct any technical failures relating to an Online Statement within a reasonable time. However, your inability to view an Online Statement does not extend, or relieve you of, your obligation to pay any amounts owing to CTN LTD. Unless you notify CTN LTD of any error within 120 days after it first appears in any Online Statement, such statement will be deemed accepted by you for all purposes, including resolution of inquiries made by your Payment Method Provider. TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, YOU RELEASE CTN LTD FROM ANY AND ALL LIABILITY AND CLAIMS OF LOSS RESULTING FROM ANY ERROR THAT IS NOT REPORTED TO CTN LTD WITHIN 120 DAYS AFTER THE ERROR FIRST APPEARS ON YOUR ONLINE STATEMENT.
9.5 Due Date; Late Charge; Collection Costs.

You agree to pay late charges that may be assessed by CTN LTD on amounts due but not timely paid. The late charge will be 1% per month (or 12% per annum) on the total amount due but not paid; but if such rate is in excess of any allowable rate under applicable laws, then you will instead be charged the maximum rate that is permitted by law. CTN LTD reserves the right to refer your Billing Account to a third party for collection in the event of default. You agree to pay all costs incurred in the enforcement of this Subscription Agreement and in collection of any delinquent amounts due, including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs.
9.6 Default. If CTN LTD does not receive payment for any charge to your Billing Account, you will be in default and CTN LTD may suspend or cancel your Billing Account and your access to CTN LTD subscription services and any or all other CTN LTD Products. If your Payment Method Provider seeks return of payments previously made to CTN LTD, but CTN LTD, in good faith, believes that you are liable for the charge and applicable law allows the Payment Method Provider to seek payment from you, you will also be in default and CTN LTD may cancel your Billing Account and your access to CTN LTD subscription services and any or all other Products. CANCELLATION OR SUSPENSION FOR DEFAULT MAY BE MADE WITHOUT PRIOR NOTICE TO YOU AND UPON SUCH CANCELLATION OR SUSPENSION, CTN LTD MAY STOP DELIVERY OF CTN LTD SUBSCRIPTION SERVICES AND ANY OTHER PRODUCT, AND ANY INFORMATION YOU HAVE STORED ON A CTN LTD SERVICE MAY NOT BE RETRIEVED AT A LATER DATE.
