Photo and Content Policy

​

Hauraki Naturally exists to promote the philosophy, lifestyle and values of Naturism.  It is not about exhibitionism, voyeurism, pornography, or any other sexually charged motivation.  Therefore do not post any content in your member profile, forum posts, or photo gallery submissions that contradicts our values.  Photos may show you naked, but such images should portray you as a naturist.  Do not post photos that draw unnecessary attention or focus to genitalia, such as close-ups of genitals, erections, headless torsos, low angle shots, etc.  Naked selfies taken standing in a bathroom are pointless, do not portray a Naturist lifestyle, and are likely to be removed.

​

Do NOT use the chat facility to set up sexual liaisons with other members, to send sexually explicit photos, to discuss the nature of your preferred sexual activities.  If you have joined the site expecting to engage in sexual activity, or for any other sexually oriented reasons, you have come to the wrong place and your membership will be revoked.

It is a condition of Hauraki Naturally membership that you agree not to pass on to any other person any such personal information provided to you by another Hauraki Naturally member without their express permission.  You must also ensure that such information (whether in hardcopy or electronic form) is stored securely and not disclose to third parties any personal information that is not publicly available unless the consent of the individual to whom the information relates is first obtained.
