Comment policy

What happens to a comment you leave on a EuKreate article, what we publish, what we remove, and what we do with your email.

How comments are reviewed

Your first comments are reviewed by a person before they appear. Once two of your comments have been approved, later ones publish immediately after automated screening, and anything the screening flags is held for review.

We remove discriminatory content, without exception

Real estate carries fair-housing obligations, and we hold comments on our site to a stricter editorial standard than the law sets. We remove anything that characterises who lives in an area, steers people toward or away from a neighbourhood, or describes a place as suited to a particular kind of person or family. This applies no matter who posted it.

We remove spam, abuse and personal information

Promotional links, harassment, impersonation, and anyone else’s personal details (an address, a phone number, a private email) get removed. Disagreement is welcome; the target has to be the argument, not a person.

How we use your email

First-time commenters confirm a 6-digit code so we know the address is real. We use your email to verify your comments and to handle requests about them. It is never published, never shown to other readers, and not used for marketing. Your name and comment are public.

Links do not help anyone’s ranking

Every link in a comment carries rel="ugc nofollow", so posting one passes no search value. Comments containing links are always held for review.

You can have your comments removed

Email support@eukreate.com from the address you commented with and we will delete your comments and the commenter record behind them. If you have commented more than once, all of your comments are removed together.

The binding versions of these commitments are in our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
