Community chat rules & privacy
Registered adults only. Optional public anonymity in chat; full registered names on reviews.
Adult accounts and visibility
The community is for registered adults aged 18 or older. You must log in and complete Athlete Growth registration to read or post. Messages are visible to registered adults with access to the site. No private adult-child messaging is offered. Do not share children’s private contact information, full dates of birth, residential addresses, images or real-time locations and schedules.
Optional anonymity
For each chat message, choose your registered full name or Anonymous member. This choice affects public display only. Messages remain linked to your account in the database for moderation and lawful handling of abuse. Authorized owner moderation may disclose a reported author’s account name and email to the owner. Other participants do not receive your account identifier, private email or date of birth through chat. Message text may identify you even if anonymous display is selected.
Reviews require names
Organization and coach reviews require a registered adult account, actual experience and affirmative agreement to display your registered full name. You cannot choose an alias or publish an anonymous review. Previously submitted alias reviews remain stored and require republication with public-name consent before they are shown or included in ratings. Registration is not an identity-document check or verification of professional credentials.
Community conduct
Be respectful. No harassment, threats, grooming, sexualized content involving children, scams, impersonation, spam or undisclosed commercial promotion. Do not publish someone else’s private information. Statements, recommendations and class details are supplied by members and are not endorsements or professional advice from Athlete Growth.
Reports and moderation
Use Report on a message or Contact & requests for safety concerns. The owner can review reports, hide messages, suspend posting and restore access. Members can remove their own messages from the visible conversation. Removal hides a message; it does not promise deletion of stored moderation records. Reports are not continuously monitored and are not emergency alerts. Call 911 for immediate danger in the United States.
