Terms of Service

StockTrack is a website that is ASIC RG 163 compliant. This means that our website is intended to be a 'discussion' website in respect of the share market, and not a source of financial advice. By using our website (stocktrack.com.au), you agree that:

  • You will treat other users of StockTrack with dignity and respect, and will not use our service to harrass, stalk, defame, threaten or abuse in any way any other individual on our website
  • You will only post information that you believe is true and accurate. In the event you are not sure if it is true or accurate, you must make that fact clear
  • You will not use our service to transmit any content or information that violates any state or federal law of Australia
  • You will not use our service to transmit any content or information that violates the rights of any other party, whether that be contractural, intellectual, confidential or otherwise
  • You will not use our service to post content of a sexual nature, be that via text or other means including photographs, images, and links to third party websites
  • You will not register multiple accounts (unless there is a legitimate purpose for that to occur, and we have provided approval)
  • You will not purport to be anyone but yourself (i.e. your true legal identity under your registered username)
  • You will not offer financial or share trading advice
  • You will not act in the capacity of a financial advisor (or other similar capacities) when posting here, and you should only post in a personal/private capacity
  • You will only post in the English lanugage (unless there is a legitimate reason for not doing so, e.g. a foreign news article, for example)
  • You will accurately declare your position and sentiment in any stock, EFT or other instrument at the time of posting

StockTrack is intended to be a website that is free of undue profanity, as well as inappropriate or illegal material. This means that we do not want trolls, businesses spamming their services, or any defamatory comments posted. We think that these guidelines are common sense. Nonethless, if you still need some guidance, we suggest that you check out the 'Netiqutte' rules posted on albion.com (see here). For the pruposes of these posting guidelines, we refer to and adopt the Netiqutte guidelines.

Posting Rules and Guidelines

We encourage freedom of discussion on just about every topic. However, you should ensure that anything you post is done so on the basis that you reasonably believe it is accurate. You and you alone are responsible for any content you post, including links to third party websites, and you agree to indemnify StockTrack by way of using our service to make such posts.

If you make posts that breach these guidelines or we receive a valid complaint, we will investigate your post which may result in your account being temporarily or permanently limited in access/functionality. Best posting guidelines include:

  • No undue profanity aimed at other users (or indeed, other entities or websites)
  • Avoiding sexualised remarks or cannotations. We are a stock market website, afterall
  • Avoiding any kind of discrimination whatsoever (whether that be racial, religious, sexual, or any other kind) against both StockTrack users or other entities or websites
  • Keep things fun and ask yourself whether a post you are making contributes to the thread in any material way. If the answer is no, then do not post it
  • Using relevant titles for threads

The posting of an individual's personal details is not permitted under most circumstances. It is also inappropriate to post company contact details which aren't available publicly. Examples of this might be an employee's desk phone number, or details on a priority/escalation support line.

These guidelines will be constantly reviewed and updated. You must ensure you are acquainted with the rules and guidelines before posting.
