Tyrox Posting Rules

We have a few rules that users must abide by when using Tyrox.co.uk to ensure that the site remains clean, friendly and easy to use. Where ads are removed by us we will, in most cases, refund your fees within 1 week from the removal of the ad. However, we reserve the right to remove ads without refund in cases where, in our opinion, the poster has regularly, frequently or deliberately breached posting rules and/or terms & conditions. Posters that regularly break our posting rules may find their future use of the site restricted.

General: Please see our list of prohibited items

• No duplicate ads

We only allow 1 ad for a particular item/ job/ flat etc. Please don't post the same ad (even if re-worded!) more than once either in the same category or across multiple categories. If there are a few possible areas for your ad then please choose the most relevant. Any duplicate ads will be removed and if you continue to post duplicates we may decide to restrict your access. This also applies to posting the same ad on more than one Tyrox site - please see below.

• Post in the correct category

Please post in the correct category as it helps both posters in reaching the right audience with their ad and helps the users looking for something to find what they want. The category specific guidelines below indicate which ads we do and don’t accept in each category.

• No links to other classified/ property/ dating/ job websites
  Please don't put a link in your ad to further details on another website. You should find everything you need on Tyrox to create a successful ad. You can:

• • use as much space as you like in your ad
  • edit your ad at anytime
  • include photos

...so there is no need to direct people elsewhere.

• No keyword spamming

Keyword spamming is the practice of listing lots of often irrelevant phrases or words in an ad purely in an attempt to have a better search ranking (e.g. lots of postcodes or locations). We don't allow this on Tyrox because it is very frustrating to our users to find irrelevant ads in their search results, it can make ads hard to read and it creates an unlevel playing field.

Tyrox reserves the right to remove any postings that we feel are not relevant, or of value to the Tyrox community, with or without notice.

Accommodation:

All of the "Flat/ House share" sections are for individual community members advertising their accommodation vacancies and not for commercial advertisement or promotion.
 

Flat/ House Share

• Professional landlords or agents may ONLY use the “Commercial landlords/agents offerings” section. Rule of thumb; if you live in the house yourself and wish to let a room within, you can advertise in “Flatshare offered”. If you do not actually live in the house, then these sections are not for you.
• Rooms are categorized by the size of bed they contain, not by their size, which is why we ask you the size of the bed, not the size of the room, in the posting process. If your room contains a single bed, then it belongs in "single rooms" ONLY. If it contains a double bed, then it belongs in "Double rooms" ONLY. Double bed = double room - Single bed = single room. It doesn't matter how many people you wish to have in the room, as you can state this in the actual ad (There is a box you can tick should the room be available to couples).
• If ads are indiscriminately posted in multiple, irrelevant categories, they will be removed
• No links to other accommodation websites

Flats/ Houses to Rent

• Please ensure that each ad ONLY advertises one property.
• Private home owners, Landlords and Professional agents are all welcome to use this category; however Professional Landlords and Agents must identify themselves by ticking the “Are you acting as an agent” box when posting their ad.
• We reserve the right to limit a professional agent’s ads per month, if, in our reasonable opinion, the professional agent is flooding the site with similar ads in order for their ads to stay at the top of the listings pages. Professional agents should use their judgement as to the frequency of reposting that is required and only repost as is reasonable both from the users and a commercial point of view.
• No links to other accommodation websites in ads
• In the posting form, we have specific fields for Price and Location. Please don't put locations or prices in the titles of postings. In the location field please just put the suburb, not the street address.
• Please note that we reserve the right to remove ads without refund where these breach our posting rules and/or our terms and conditions.

Jobs:

• Each job posting must advertise an individual (one vacancy only) and specific position. Generic postings advertising multiple vacancies or employment services are not allowed except in the Training courses/Open Days category.
• We ask ALL posters to keep their job postings within the guidelines set out by the UK Equality and Human Rights Commission.
• Each job posting must be written in English.
• Agencies must clearly identify themselves
• Ads for training courses or open days may appear only in the training courses/open days category.
• We do not accept postings which require candidates to send money or stamped addressed envelopes to gain further details of the positions.
• We do not accept “commission only” jobs, "multi-level marketing (MLM)" jobs or “work from home” jobs.
• We do not accept postings that advertise pyramid selling, or multi-level marketing schemes.
• We do not accept postings that contain links to other websites that offer the user job posting facilities.
• Job postings should be placed in the category which most closely relates to the actual nature of the vacancy rather than the nature of the employer or industry. If you are unsure post in the 'General Jobs' category.
• We ask that all fields in the Job Posting Form be filled out correctly. EG: The “posting title” field to only contain the vacancy title and no location, contact or company details.
• We do not accept postings that advertise for models or actors (either male or female) using generic (hotmail, yahoo, gmail, etc) email accounts and/or mobile phone numbers. These posters must include a registered agency email address and land line phone number.
• We do not accept adverts for Escort/Adult industry work.
• We do not accept job adverts for medical trials of any kind.
  In particular please note:
• The Race Relations Act 1976 (as amended) in the UK makes it unlawful for a person to publish or cause to be published an advertisement which indicates an intention to discriminate against others on the grounds of their race, colour, nationality or ethnic or national origin. The Equality and Human Rights Commission has the power to take legal action against an advertiser or publisher of an unlawful advertisement. It is also unlawful, when advertising job vacancies, to indicate an intention to discriminate on grounds of sex, marriage or age.
