ARIS Community Guidelines

Reading legal documents like our Terms of Use can be really frightening, because nothing seems to be allowed and everything seems to lead to some kind of legal action. Of course we do not want to scare you away. In contrast, we welcome your contributions! We want to make the ARIS Community a lively gathering place for all people interested in business process management and ARIS. Therefore, please share with us your best practices by submitting articles, forum discussions or ARIS models!

Complying with the Terms of Use is very easy. Just follow those simple rules and your contribution is very welcome:

  • ARIS Community is about sharing your experience in business process management. Therefore, do not submit unrelated content and any trade secrets, racism, pornography or sexual content.
  • Respect copyright and only upload BPM content that you made or that you are authorized to use.
  • We encourage free speech and defend everyone’s right to express unpopular points of view. But we do not accept any kind of hate speech or trolling attacking or demeaning anyone based on race or ethnic origin, religion, disability, gender, age, veteran status, sexual orientation or gender identity.
  • Respect privacy of all ARIS Community members by not revealing other people’s personal information or doing things like predatory behavior, stalking or harassment.
  • In a business community as ARIS Community, time is money. Therefore, do not submit SPAM. It is ok to promote your contributions, but make sure your content is relevant for the audience you are targeting with your promotion.

If you think someone broke those rules, notify our moderators by using the notification link next to the BPM content. In any case, we will review all BPM content after it was published. We will remove any BPM content which breaks those rules and notify the author accordingly. We might also ban an author from the community if necessary.

ARIS Community should be an interesting place for all BPM and ARIS fans. We need your feedback and active contribution. If you think we missed something in the rules or if you are looking for clarification, please do not hesitate to contact us!
