GOHISO is committed to building a community platform that is a fun and safe environment for all. This commitment is grounded on the principles of transparency and respect.

Posters and Taskers agree to adhere to the Community Guidelines to ensure everyone’s experience with GOHISO is safe and rewarding. The Community Guidelines are part of the Terms & Conditions you agree to when signing up to GOHISO.

Members that breach the Community Guidelines may have their account limited or deactivated until further notice and will not be able to transact on the GOHISO platform.

As part of our commitment to transparency, we’ve put together the below table to outline some reasons why an account may be limited and approximate durations. There may be other instances where a deactivation of your account could apply, depending on the activity that causes it. How long the deactivation lasts may also vary, as it depends on the breach and any warnings or deactivations previously issued.

Whilst we will always try and remain fair, it is important that GOHISO reserves the right to limit or deactivate at its absolute discretion and any limitations placed on your account do not waive our other rights under the Terms & Conditions. You will be notified of any limitations or deactivations via email.

When an account is deactivated or limited for any reason, it is not supported for the member to create another account. If any additional accounts are found, they will be removed.

If you’ve got any questions or think an error has been made, contact our Support Team via a reply email, or get in touch here.

Limited 

If your account is limited, you will no longer be able to make comments, post tasks or be assigned new tasks. However you are still able to complete open tasks already assigned to you.

Repeated breaches may result in longer periods of your account being limited or being deactivated.
