HM COMMUNITY GUIDELINES

Last Updated: September 30, 2026

 HTOWN MINGLE LLC™ is built around meaningful relationships, professional respect, trusted connections and shared Experiences.

These guidelines apply to HM members and participants across HM Memberships, member Experiences, virtual programming and community spaces.

Treat members, guests, HM representatives, partners and participating businesses with dignity, professionalism and courtesy.

Harassment, discrimination, threats, intimidation, bullying or materially disruptive behavior is not permitted.

HM creates opportunities for people to meet, build relationships and expand their circles.

Introductions create opportunity, not obligation.

Respect another person's decision not to exchange contact information, continue a conversation, make an introduction, purchase a service or pursue a personal or professional relationship.

HM Membership is designed for connection, participation and community.

Members are encouraged to:

Show Up • Engage • Introduce • Support • Refer When Appropriate • Follow Up • Build Trust

Quality relationships matter more than collecting contacts.

Business development is welcome.

Aggressive selling, repeated unsolicited pitches, spam, pressure tactics or using HM member access primarily to harvest contacts is not.

Member access does not grant permission to distribute another member's personal information.

Do not share private conversations, contact information, photographs or personal details without appropriate permission.

Provide truthful information about yourself, your business, credentials, services and intentions.

Fraud, impersonation, deceptive practices and material misrepresentation may result in suspension or termination.

Membership benefits vary by membership level, availability, Experience, venue, market and program calendar.

Membership does not guarantee:

Referrals • Leads • Sales • Introductions • Clients • Partnerships • Media Coverage • Sponsorships • Event Admission • Business Results

Specific Experiences and opportunities may require registration, approval, capacity availability or additional payment.

Members participating in HM Experiences must follow applicable:

HM Experience Policies • Age + Eligibility Requirements • Code of Connection™ • Venue Policies • Media Guidelines

Membership does not override Experience-specific requirements.

Membership does not automatically include advertising, dedicated promotional campaigns, editorial coverage, TATS | HMTV appearances, THE ONE TO KNOW™ features or other paid media inventory.

Media, advertising, sponsorships and promotional opportunities are offered separately unless expressly included in a specific membership benefit.

HM Membership is separate from:

HM Business Network™ • Preferred Vendor Status • Strategic Partnerships • Sponsorships • Vendor/Showcase Opportunities • HM Agency Services

Participation in one does not automatically provide status or benefits in another.

HM may review conduct that reasonably affects the safety, trust or integrity of the community.

HM may suspend, restrict or terminate participation for:

Harassment • Threats • Fraud • Material Misrepresentation • Unsafe Conduct • Serious Policy Violations • Nonpayment • Repeated Disruptive Behavior

Members are responsible for their own personal, professional and business decisions.

HM facilitates access, Experiences and opportunities for connection but does not guarantee the conduct, performance or outcomes of independent members, businesses or third parties.

The strength of HM is built through the quality of the people, relationships and Experiences within it.

 By participating in HM Memberships and community spaces, you agree to uphold these Membership + Community Guidelines and the applicable HTOWN MINGLE LLC™ policies.
