Children

children should be supervised The owner of any groups or communities at mc² must be an adult (18+ years), even if the group is established for the use of young people. Any group behaving irresponsibly or owned by a minor is subject to removal, without notice, by Vicnet &/or mc² staff.

Children who use mc² must be supervised at all times. Be aware that if children post images of themselves, school records, their address, or any other identifying information, it could potentially be used against them in a harmful manner, e.g. by paedophiles.

Note that whilst Internet Content Hosts (ICHs) (such as Vicnet) are not required to actively review, monitor or classify the content hosted on their service, they have an obligation to report material they have reasonable grounds to believe is child pornography or child abuse material to the Australian Federal Police (AFP) - see Attorney-General's Department.

As detailed in the Disclaimer, the My Connected Community Secretariat accepts no responsibility for the behaviour of individuals who access any of the interactive features of the mc² website, including any chat room. This includes any liability in respect of their actions, comments and/or opinions, which are solely their own and not those of Vicnet.

As mc² is a multi-purpose community Website, some groups may contain content only suitable for adults. Group owners should indicate this on the Group Info page, and make the group Members Only.
