Community Rules

Community standards and rules for creating publications

Our mission consists in letting people share interesting, quality information, on travelling around the world, thus making the world a more open, understandable, accessible place for communication and travelling. People come to the project MUNDO.PRO to be able to share their travelling experience, see the world through the eyes of other users, and receive quality information on different countries, their points of interest, traditions, interesting events and holidays, professional guides’ offers, and even real estate.

Our wish is for people to publish on MUNDO.PRO only informative, interesting quality content, to prevent our project from turning into yet another "garbage can" of useless information. That is why we have created a set of Community standards and rules, which are listed below. They will help you understand, which publications are acceptable on MUNDO.PRO, and which we will not publish.

Our Community is very diverse and consists of professionals. Please keep in mind that some of the content you may choose to publish, could be ruled out by our experts as lacking interest and/or quality (photos or videos), and as a result not pass the moderation. Thus we ask you kindly to have a careful and responsible attitude towards the creation of content, and follow our recommendations. Every type of content you wish to publish has to pass our moderation, meaning it will be analysed by our specialists. Also keep in mind that we are always ready to help you with the editorial and the design of your articles.

The publishing of various content on MUNDO.PRO is a reflection of the diversity of its Community, and gives the opportunity to the most active users to be able to receive a salary from thematic advertising displayed on the pages of their content, if they agree to it. This possibility exists on no other touristic website!

Complaints about violations

Our Community gets bigger every day, and we aim to create a trustful and friendly atmosphere between our users, where no forbidden content or content used without its author’s agreement exists. We count on the help of people like you to be able to reach our objective. If you see anything on MUNDO.PRO which, in your opinion, presents a violation of our rules and standards or of your intellectual property, we ask you to inform us. Our specially designated moderators work throughout the world, analysing content you are reporting, to ensure the security of MUNDO.PRO.

Sometimes we are forced to delete content which does not violate our rules and standards, but violates local laws and regulations, on demand of local authorities. If after careful legal analysis we rule content out as illegal according to local jurisdiction, we will only make it unavailable in the relevant country or area.

Keep in mind that:

  • We can take action whenever someone violates the aforementioned rules and standards of the Community.
  • Reporting any content is not a guarantee that it will be deleted, because it is not certain that this content violates our rules and standards.
  • Our moderators count on you to describe why a certain post violates our rules and standards or your intellectual rights when you report it. If you report content, please tell us why do you think it should be deleted (for example violation of copyright), so we can send it over for analysis to the relevant moderator.
  • Sometimes, our evaluation may change after we are made of aware of additional context to a certain post, or the apparition of new content on pages or profiles of MUNDO.PRO, which violate our rules and standards.
  • The number of reports does not influence our decision. We never delete content for the sole reason it was reported many times.
  • The consequences for violating our rules and standards of the Community may vary depending on the gravity of the violation and reputation of the user on MUNDO.PRO. For example, a first offence may receive a warning, whereas on subsequent offences a user may be banned from posting on the website, or even banned from access to MUNDO.PRO.
