Don't Link Your PWS to Your Profile - Here's How to Share It

In summary, the purpose of not linking your PWS to your profile is to maintain privacy and security. There are various ways to share your PWS without linking it to your profile, such as including it in your bio or sharing it through direct messages. Not linking your PWS can also help you build a more professional online presence and you can still promote it separately. However, there may be exceptions where linking your PWS to your profile is necessary or beneficial, but it is important to carefully consider the risks and benefits before doing so.

I've seen a lot of members here recently with their PWS included in their profile. That's against HO policy. It creates a link to the PWS not only on profile pages, but also in a drop-down from usernames within threads.

If you would like to share your PWS with other members here, you can do so by including it in your signature as such:
../username
where "username" is the personalized part of your PWS address.

We know that HO has people who surf this site, and I'd hate for anyone to get into trouble for innocently including their PWS address in their profile.
 
Thanks for the reminder Ann!
 
Hey Ann - I know that the e-mail to report violations is here somewhere - just can't find it - I noticed someone's PWS showed up on a Google search and that means they registered it with Google - isn't that against the rules too?
 
Hi there! Thank you for bringing this to our attention. As a Pampered Chef consultant, it is important for us to follow HO policies in order to protect our businesses. I appreciate your reminder about not including our PWS in our profiles. I will make sure to update my signature with my PWS address instead. Thank you for looking out for our community!
