Before sharing content on Facebook, please be sure you have the right to do so.

We take the safety of our members seriously and work to prevent attempts to

**Reporting Abuse**
181
+
182
+
If you see something on Facebook that you believe violates our terms, you can report it to us. Please keep in mind
183
+
184
+
that reporting a person, organization, or piece of content doesn't guarantee its removal from the site.
185
+
186
+
Because of the diversity of our community, it's possible that something could be disagreeable or disturbing to you
187
+
188
+
without meeting the criteria for being removed or blocked. For this reason, we also offer personal controls over
189
+
190
+
what you see, such as the ability to hide or quietly cut ties with people, Pages, or applications that offend you.
191
+
192
+
Content that does violate our terms may be removed from our site and (in some cases) subject to legal or other
193
+
194
+
action.
