Updates to Discord’s Policies

Hey!

We wanted to let you know that we're updating our Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, Paid Services Terms, and Community Guidelines. We periodically make these updates as our business evolves or to respond to new laws.

These changes will take effect on April 15, 2024.

Here are some highlights of what we've updated:

  • How we describe our services: Made it easier to understand how Discord works, the features we offer, and how our services can be personalized for you.
  • How we resolve disputes: Updated our informal dispute resolution process and our arbitration agreement. We work hard to make sure you always love Discord and hope there's never a dispute!
  • How we approach privacy: Provided more information about privacy rights and how they are exercised. We also updated what data we collect and how we use it. Your privacy is important to us, and we try to limit what information we collect and give you control over your privacy on Discord.
  • How we explain our Community Guidelines: Added more context and made our guidelines easier to understand.

We encourage you to read the updated documents in full. We've also summarised important changes on our blog.

Thanks for helping us make Discord the best place for people to hang out and talk together!

Mary, we want to stay ad free

Hi Mary,

You might not be receiving this email seeking donations if we opted for the easy route of displaying ads or securing corporate sponsorships on Change.org.

Sure, it might streamline our finances, but it would compromise what makes Change.org so powerful: our independence.

Staying 100% user-funded takes dedication, but it's undeniably worth it. Thanks to generous donors like you, we've kept Change.org free from ads and sponsorship deals. This means our mission remains untainted by commercial interests.

With your support, we can continue to keep our platform focused on what truly matters – empowering individuals to make a difference, unencumbered by distractions.

Today, I'm inviting you to join our community of supporters who are safeguarding Change.org's independence.

Mary, your contribution could ensure that Change.org remains a vital, independent platform where everyone's voice can be heard, injustices can be challenged, and lives can be saved.

Yes, I'll Help Keep Change.org Free and Independent

Please stand with us in our commitment to remain ad-free and fiercely independent. Join our membership program today.

Thank you for your consideration, Mary.

Warm regards,

The Change.org Team

Support Inclusivity: Stop Labeling Autistic Children as Nuisances

In San Jose, California, a profoundly autistic child named Zeke finds himself at the center of a distressing legal battle. Despite his innocence, he faces the alarming accusation of being a "public nuisance." Zeke's vocal stimming, a natural aspect of his condition, should not be misconstrued as a reason for legal action. This unjust lawsuit not only harms Zeke and his family but also sends a troubling message about inclusivity and acceptance in our society.

It's time to stand together and demand justice for Zeke and all autistic children. Sign the petition to urge the California court to dismiss this discriminatory lawsuit and uphold the rights of individuals with disabilities. 

Dismiss the Lawsuit Labeling a Profoundly Autistic Child as a Public Nuisance

As a person who loves a profoundly autistic child, I am deeply saddened and troubled by the idea that a mean-spirited neighbor (who may have other interests) would use the Court System to target Zeke, a Level 3 non-verbal autistic child, to have him declared a, "public nuisance". My son, like many others with profound autism, engages in vocal stimming - it's part of his disability. This alarming situation is hurting the family of Zeke in San Jose, California for no other reason than he has Profound Autism.

In this case, one individual, Janine Lu Chun, has brought forth this civil lawsuit seeking to declare this profoundly autistic child as a public nuisance. This action has shaken every American who loves a non-verbal autistic child! 

It's crucial that we foster a society that is understanding and acceptance rather than stigmatizing  and punishing children and families who's only "crime" is being a non-verbal Autistic.

We must ensure that our legal system does not become an instrument of discrimination against those who are differently-abled. We call upon the California court to dismiss this lawsuit and uphold the rights of all individuals living with disabilities. 

Please sign our petition today and stand up for justice for all AUTISTIC CHILDREN.
