Site Guidelines - where do they show up?

I`m currently setting up an internal forum for our company. We compiled a set of rules and guidelines and I entered them in the ACP under "System" -> "Settings" -> "Terms & Privacy Policy" -> "Site Guidelines".

 

However, when I view the forum after I saved the changes these guidelines are nowhere to be seen. I can't find a link to them or anything of that sort. Am I overlooking something? Do I need to set permissions to view them or something like that? Thanks for your help!

If you have time, could you explain the difference between Site Guidelines and Registration Terms (Terms of Use?)?

Thank you in advance for any insight.

Guidelines are more-so things like don't spam, don't reply in all capitals or red font, etc... Things that aren't necessarily legal terms but make a community harmonious or keeps discussion flowing.

Registration Terms are more things that are legal based: we reserve the right to modify/delete user generated content at our discretion, you provide us an unlimited use of your content, you may not create subsequent accounts once banned, etc...  

(Please note I am not a lawyer or providing legal advice or stating the above are legal terms which you can claim, just providing examples. If you have any questions on those, please contact a lawyer in your area for advice.)

My use cases on my community:

  • Guidelines - I outline the do's and do not's, I touch on privacy and safety, enforcement procedures and finally a bit on how to contact me. This is the most elaborate guidelines or rules I have on my community.
  • Privacy Policy - A more elaborate description on privacy, as well as containing the third-party information from Invision Community.
  • Registration Terms & Rules - I try to keep this short and sweet, touching on the key points to prevent anyone being turned away during registration.
  • Cookies - I have not updated this and use the default information provided by Invision Community.

Hope this helps.
