- Content containing confidential or proprietary business/personal information or personally identifying information, such as addresses, phone numbers, social security numbers, or other sensitive information;
- Slanderous, libelous, malicious, offensive, obscene, threatening, profane, or discourteous;

MODERATION
Our employees moderate our LinkedIn Page only during our regular posted banking hours. In order to promote compliance with these Guidelines, Sterling State Bank may not allow "real time" posting. We have put this limitation into place in an attempt to limit the dissemination of harmful or offensive content and any private/confidential information you may inadvertently place in your posts. However, no system is infallible and you should never post your private/confidential information, such as social security number, account number, date of birth, telephone numbers, email address, or other similar information. As to any harmful or offensive content, please remember the views, opinions, and experiences expressed by users are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views or opinions of Sterling State Bank or its employees. When we discover or become aware of harmful and offensive content, we will endeavor to remove it as soon as possible. If you discover any harmful or offensive content, please contact our customer service department. When we limit real time posting, Sterling State Bank will attempt to review all posts and comments to ensure they comply with our Guidelines within two business days of the initial posting.
