Community Guidelines
House of Cocktails is a club of people who care about craft. These standards keep it that way.
Share your own work
Publish recipes, photographs and text you created yourself or are entitled to use. Classic drinks belong to everyone, but a bar's or author's original creation deserves credit — name the source in the notes when you adapt someone else's specification.
Be accurate
Give real measures, a workable method, the correct glass and honest notes. ABV and calorie figures are estimates calculated from your ingredients; do not present them as exact nutritional information.
Respect other members
Criticism of a drink is welcome; attacks on people are not. Harassment, hate speech, discrimination, threats, sexual content and doxxing lead to removal and account measures.
Image rights and people in photos
Only upload photographs you own the rights to. Do not upload images showing identifiable people without their consent, and never upload images of minors.
Drink responsibly
Content that promotes excessive drinking, drinking games, drinking and driving, or alcohol for minors or during pregnancy is not permitted. Non-alcoholic versions are always welcome.
No spam or hidden advertising
No mass posting, no link farming, no undisclosed brand promotion. If a recipe is sponsored or contains affiliate links, it must be labelled.
Reporting
Use the report button on any recipe, comment or profile. Choose the reason that fits best and add context. Reports are confidential: the reported member never sees who reported them.
What happens after a report
- A moderator reviews the report, usually within a few days
- Content may be hidden, unpublished or removed
- The member may receive a warning notification
- Repeated or serious breaches lead to suspension or account termination
- Unlawful content is escalated to the authorities where required
