GLA’s social media accounts allow us to connect and interact with the public

They also provide an opportunity for users to connect and interact with us, as well as with other users. GLA requests that all comments posted on our social media channels be respectful and courteous. This Social Media Comment Policy sets forth an understanding of what is acceptable and what is not acceptable regarding posting of comments on GLA’s social media channels.

GLA maintains an official presence on the following social media platforms: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube, and Pinterest. Each social media platform has its own privacy policy to which you are subject when you use that platform: see Facebook/Instagram; Twitter; LinkedIn; YouTube; Pinterest. 

We encourage all users to engage and participate in discussions on our social media channels. However, this does not imply that GLA agrees with or accepts the content, opinions, or views stated in comments posted by users.
