External, non-DSS links on this site do not constitute official endorsement on behalf of the DSS. While we encourage fans to share thoughts and opinions on the DSS page, we expect that this will be done in a respectful manner. Our policy is to accept the majority of comments made to our profile. However, a comment will be deleted if it contains:
- Hate speech
- Profanity, obscenity or vulgarity
- Nudity in profile pictures
- Defamation to a person or people
- Name calling or personal attacks
- Comments whose main purpose are to sell a product
- Comments that infringe on copyrights
- Spam comments, such as the same comment posted repeatedly on a profile

- Other comments that Calvert County DSS deems inappropriate
All links posted as comments on DSS posts will be reviewed and may be deleted. Repeated violations of the DSS comment policy may cause the author to be blocked from the DSS page. We understand that social media is a 24/7 medium; however, our monitoring capabilities are not. We may not see every inappropriate comment right away, and we are trusting in the maturity of our community to ignore personal attacks and negative speech and to respond politely.
