99nicu is a professional community open for professionals in neonatal medicine. In this context, we also welcome representatives for companies with medications and technology used in neonatal care.

However, the discussion forums are meant for independent exchange of knowledge and ideas among staff working in NICUs and we strongly discourage posting by sales representatives for marketing purposes in the forums.

We realize this is an area of difficulties, but the 99nicu team has decided upon the following guidelines:

1. Individual company representatives are not allowed to post or initiate contents related to marketing in forums, in blogs or in social groups. This includes that such members are not allowed to write blogs, create social groups, and start own threads.

2. Contents related to marketing in the discussion forums will be erased.

3. Members who contact or send contents to individual members related to marketing through the PM system or by email, will be excluded.

4. As for all members, mis-use of general posting guidelines, that we categorize as spamming, will results in restricted permissions to post also in the blog and Classifieds forum.

Companies can market products/services by advertising in the 99nicu Newsletters or by displaying a logo at our web site.
Please email info@99nicu.org for more information about advertising and sponsorships.
This email address can also be used for questions about the guidelines stated above.
