Solgar Social Media Policy
General House Rules
Our social media pages are dedicated to promoting a healthy and vibrant lifestyle. We encourage open and respectful discussions within our community. Please note that any posts made on our pages do not necessarily reflect the views of Solgar or its affiliates.
We reserve the right to remove or block any profiles and posts that we consider offensive, inappropriate, or not aligned with the spirit of our community. This includes, but is not limited to, advertising, spam, irresponsible health claims, off-topic content, vulgar language, disrespect towards community members, and any behavior that violates the respective social platform’s community standards or our own policies.
While we welcome diverse opinions regarding health and wellness, all commentary should remain constructive and positive. Activities such as impersonating others, creating false identities for organizations, or maintaining multiple accounts can undermine our community and may lead to removal or blocking. Repeat offenders may be permanently banned from participating in discussions related to Solgar. If you are getting anything of value or in return for endorsing Solgar or Solgar products (e.g., compensation, coupons, sweepstakes entries, free products, etc. in your role as an agency partner, influencer, product endorser, sponsor, or employee), please disclose your material connection to Solgar when you post. Material connection disclosures must be easy to see and hard to miss and provided in all ways in which you provide the endorsement (audible if a spoken endorsement, visible if a written endorsement). Material connection disclosures can be in the form of a hashtag (e.g., #SolgarPartner) or a simple and clear statement (e.g., “I am thrilled to be partnering with Solgar to talk with you about this Solgar product…”) but must be a clear representation of the material connection between you and Solgar.
