The Arizona Game and Fish Department does not intend to create a public forum with its social media channels. The purpose of these channels is to provide information about our mission, programs, products and services. Comments made to these channels must be limited to these topics.

Comments made to our social media channels will be reviewed, and the Department reserves the right to remove comments that are unrelated to the purpose or topical scope of these channels, or that include any of the following: Obscenity; words that incite imminent lawless action; speech presenting a grave and imminent threat; fighting words; fraud or defamation; promotion or advertisement of a business or commercial transaction; promotion in favor of or in opposition to a candidate campaigning for election to political office; or copyrighted material.

The Department may take steps to have a comment removed if it falls within one of these categories, and may prohibit comments from any person who repeatedly violates this policy. The Department will not edit comments, but may respond with corrected information to comments that are factually inaccurate or that misrepresent the Department or its mission.
