Intel Social Media Guidelines

These are the official guidelines for social media at Intel. If you're an Intel employee or contractor creating or contributing to blogs, wikis, social networks, virtual worlds, or any other kind of social media both on and off intel.com—these guidelines are for you. We expect all who participate in social media on behalf of Intel to be trained, to understand and to follow these guidelines. Failure to do so could put your future participation at risk. These guidelines will continually evolve as new technologies and social networking tools emerge—so check back once in awhile to make sure you're up to date.

When You Engage

Emerging platforms for online collaboration are fundamentally changing the way we work, offering new ways to engage with customers, colleagues, and the world at large. It's a new model for interaction and we believe social computing can help you to build stronger, more successful business relationships. And it's a way for you to take part in global conversations related to the work we are doing at Intel and the things we care about.

If you participate in social media, please follow these guiding principles:

* Stick to your area of expertise and provide unique, individual perspectives on what's going on at Intel and in the world.

* Post meaningful, respectful comments—in other words, no spam and no remarks that are off-topic or offensive.

* Always pause and think before posting. That said, reply to comments in a timely manner, when a response is appropriate.

* Respect proprietary information and content, and confidentiality.

* When disagreeing with others' opinions, keep it appropriate and polite.

* Know and follow the Intel Code of Conduct and the Intel Privacy Policy
