Whether you come to VFJC to browse, buy, or sell, our Community Guidelines apply to all VFJC users and all of the ways we connect, including Listings, Comments, Conversations, Images, and Videos.
By using VFJC, you are subject to this policy across the VFJC marketplace and services, including all community spaces. Violations of these Guidelines may result in deleted content, removal of listings or restrictions to your account. We may also report certain harmful content or conduct to the appropriate law enforcement authorities.
As in any diverse community, you may encounter content on VFJC that you don’t like or agree with, even though that content doesn’t violate our Guidelines. If you encounter a situation like this, please email our site administrator.
If you see something or someone on VFJC that doesn’t follow these guidelines, please do not engage with VFJC users who behave inappropriately. Our team will investigate and take the appropriate action.
Be Respectful
In order to maintain a safe and welcoming community, we expect VFJC users to be respectful in their interactions with others. We ask everyone to be kind, assume best intentions, and consider how your content, conduct, or behavior may be received by an audience with mixed sensibilities. We understand not everyone always sees eye-to-eye, but we do not tolerate harassment or other forms of bullying. Please review the Anti-Bullying Policy below for more information on what types of behavior we do not allow.
Inclusivity is central to our community, so we do not allow behavior or content that is sexually explicit, hateful, or excessively violent. For more information on how we define these content categories, please see the Prohibited Items Policy.
Be Safe
Do not post private communications, contact information such as your email address and phone number, or other personal details in any public spaces on VFJC. Do not make threats or attempts to give out the personal information of others.
Do not engage in or glorify unsafe activities, which includes any acts, behavior, or misinformation that may endanger or physically harm yourself or others.
Be Real
It takes real people to build a thriving community. Please don’t engage in any behavior to impersonate or mislead others. This includes, but is not limited to implying a false affiliation with other individuals, groups, or brands. You may not use VFJC to collect personal data or content that doesn’t belong to you or to which you do not own the rights. Be respectful of the intellectual property rights of others.
While VFJC users are welcome to recruit human helpers, we don’t allow VFJC users to use unauthorized programs or other forms of automation to participate on VFJC. This includes, but is not limited to, deleting and reposting content, liking, sharing, following, and unfollowing.
Don’t Spam or Solicit
Spam comes in many forms, but typically refers to posting unsolicited or unwanted promotional content over and over. This may also include excessively reposting the same item for sale. Spam can be a nuisance for other VFJC users, so please don’t do it.
VFJC is generally not the place to post any content that constitutes a contest, raffle, or sweepstakes. Do not ask for or otherwise solicit donations of money, goods, or services through our platform or by advertising a third party site. However, VFJC users are welcome to sell their clothing, accessories, and select home goods for any lawful cause to which they choose to donate proceeds on their own. VFJC does not verify donation receipt.
Keep Transactions on VFJC
You may not use VFJC to conduct transactions off the platform or offline. Sales that originate on VFJC must be completed through VFJC, including any discussion about details of the item or price negotiation.
In the event of a dispute, we will not cover buyers or sellers if any part of the transaction was taken off of VFJC. This also applies to trades and unauthorized giveaways as they are honor-based agreements which we cannot guarantee will be fulfilled as described.
Anti-Bullying Policy
Bullying is not allowed on VFJC. Bullying can mean different things to different people, but we define it as repeated or severe socially aggressive behavior from an individual or a group targeted towards another individual or group. VFJC reserves the right to evaluate bullying behavior in its sole discretion. Bullying includes but is not limited to the behaviors outlined below.
- Harassment:
- Sending cruel or harmful messages or using other methods of contact (including tagging) to engage with a specific target without a clear and reasonable purpose
- Circumventing the block feature or continuing to engage with someone after they have requested not to be contacted
- Using derogatory language, violent threats, or encouraging self-harm even if intended as a joke
- Doxing: Sharing someone else’s non-public personally identifiable information
- Denigration: Making personal attacks, publicly shaming or otherwise focusing conversation on negative information to demean another user
- Brigading: Organizing or participating in a coordinated unwelcome action against a target including but not limited to abuse of the VFJC reporting feature
If you are being bullied on VFJC, do not engage with the aggressor(s). Write to us and let us know, with as much detail as you can share, what happened. We must be able to verify the evidence you provide to us in order to take appropriate action against users for bullying. We take reports of bullying very seriously and expect VFJC users to act in good faith. Providing fake or misleading content to report bullying may result in action taken against your account.
We’re here to help, but in some cases, VFJC is not in a position to resolve matters of bullying.
- If you are concerned about bullying happening outside of VFJC, please first seek assistance from the appropriate party relative to where you may be experiencing these issues by reporting it directly through the appropriate channel. If severe off-platform bullying from another VFJC user is impacting you or other community members’ VFJC experience, we may take action against their account if we receive verifiable evidence of the behavior.
- If you are concerned about defamation or another civil issue, you may wish to seek legal advice. VFJC cannot serve as the arbiter of truth.
- If you are concerned about your safety, consult your local law enforcement authorities.
Off-Site Transactions Policy
Directing transactions off of VFJC is not allowed. While some users may conduct business through multiple venues, sales that originate on VFJC must be completed through VFJC. This includes any discussion about details of the item or price negotiation. VFJC reserves the right to review and classify off-site transactions in its sole discretion. Off-site transactions include but are not limited to the examples outlined below.
- Web addresses: You may not post or otherwise promote a URL, image, or other off-platform location with promotional offers or an invitation to facilitate any part of a sale off of VFJC.
- Referral codes: You may not post or mention a URL, code, or other unique identifier that directs VFJC users to join or otherwise conduct business through a non-VFJC affiliated service.
- QR codes: You may not post QR codes directing users off of VFJC for any reason unless affiliated with a VFJC-owned account.
- Off-platform communication: You may not request someone contact you by phone, email, or other means outside of VFJC’s established community spaces to support the completion of a transaction.
Exceptions: Posting URLs or mentioning off-site locations that enhance the shopping experience such as a social media page, manufacturer’s website, size guide, or fashion inspiration while keeping all other aspects of the transaction on VFJC is allowed.
