Participation in Humania Assurance's social media and other digital conversation platforms is not anonymous. If you wish to engage in dialogue with us on one of these platforms, you must identify yourself.

We will express our disagreement with other people's opinions respectfully and expect others to refrain from personal attacks, inflammatory language, and quarrels with other members of the community.
On the Web, writing in capital letters is considered to be the equivalent of shouting or yelling, and is therefore aggressive and unpleasant. Messages containing a word in all caps (except for acronyms and abbreviations) may be refused.
We will correct any information that is inaccurate or deceptive in our regard as soon as possible.

We will answer questions, if appropriate, as quickly as possible.
We will not edit comments or questions, but we may moderate them. Any comments or questions submitted and accepted for posting will be posted in full. On some platforms, it may be impossible to delete your messages once posted. Please think carefully about what you write and the consequences of posting it.
We will delete any comments related to potential, imminent or ongoing litigation.
You can include a link or two in a comment, if it is to a site or article directly related to the topic of conversation. To prevent spamming, comments containing more than two links may be refused.
Multiple messages on the same topic hinder dialogue and will not be tolerated.
Similarly, posting the same comments more than once is considered to be spamming and will not be tolerated.
