The Spirit of our Community

The American Cancer Society is building an open, active online community. The success of the project depends on the contributions of users like you. We thank you for engaging in this unique experience. To protect you, us, and other visitors, we need each user to create a profile before contributing. Please do not create more than one profile.

• SharingHope.tv is inclusive. Everyone is welcome to be a part of our site.
• SharingHope.tv rewards quality. We strive for, recognize, and reward quality.
• SharingHope.tv is optimistic. We believe the best is possible. We don't just appreciate goodness; we expect it from ourselves and others. We believe things can and will get better for all cancer patients.
• SharingHope.tv is driven by engagement. We highly value participation and encourage dialogue.
• SharingHope.tv values sincerity. We mean what we say, we act with conviction, and we value others who do the same.

While we want this community to be open and active, there are some limits. The American Cancer Society does not review anything before it is posted, and we have no obligation to undo anything you or anyone else has done (though we reserve the right to do so). Please think twice before you make a post.

• Do no harm. More specifically, don't post anything that is unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, pornographic, libelous, invasive of privacy or publicity rights, hateful, violent, threatening, or racially, sexually, ethnically, or otherwise objectionable.
• Do follow our feedback and ratings systems.
• Do not disturb. Please don't interfere with or disrupt any of our services, servers, or networks connected to our services, or disobey any requirements, procedures, policies, or regulations of networks connected to our services or our site itself.
• Do post your videos and ask questions if you need help.
• Don't solicit. No posting of any unsolicited or unauthorized advertising, promotional materials, junk mail, spam, chain letters, pyramid schemes, or any other form of solicitation.
• Don't scrounge. No collecting or storing personally identifying information about other visitors for commercial or unlawful purposes.
• Don't pose to be someone you are not.
• Don't steal, pirate, or swindle. Don't post anything that you don't own or otherwise have the right to transmit and share. It is our policy to respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement that comply or substantially comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA"), (the text of which can be found at the U.S. Copyright Office Web site), and other applicable intellectual property laws.
