Safety Features

.

One of our main goals remain to keep

Horse, Dog and Cat Paw-Wow safe to be a part of,

and growing with great, caring and real pet owners.

.

Many  Safety Features are implemented to help us in Administration and our Members to do so.

.

Rate a Profile: Our supporting Members are now able to rate other Members Profiles on a scale from 1 to 10. Rating one, you are not at all impressed to Rating 10 the highest positive rating.

.

Profile vote: All Members have one vote for each Profile. By giving your vote, you either verify this Member as being genuine/real or not, or had positive communications or not. Make sure you either know this member or had contact/communication with this Member before voting either POSITIVE or NEGATIVE.

Members with a certain number of positive votes will receive a “Verified status”.

Use your vote with care.

.

Report Abuse:  All Members are able to Report Abuse. At Paw-Wow we do NOT support, encourage or tolerate Puppy Mills, Dog Fighting of any kind or commercialized animal farms/breeding. PLEASE everyone Report Abuse if you see anything in question, we will investigate.

.

Safety Features to come:  After a certain number of active  members are reached, we will implement face control. This means our members are going to vote for new members profiles, photos, if the new members can not reach a certain % of positive votes, his or her profile/account registration will be rejected/deleted.

.

Deleting your Profile/Account: Please keep in mind, deleting your profile/account with us is permanent. One of our added safety features allows us to recognize the unique computer IP address a member registers with. Any member not being in compliance with our Terms of use Agreement, and/or displayed misconduct will be terminated. Once such a members account has been deleted, this feature will prevent them from being able to re-register at Paw-Wow. So keep in mind, if you are not sure if Paw-Wow is for you, or benefits you, just remain a Free Basic Member for the time being.

.

Creating your Profile is one of the, no wait, is the most important tool at Paw-Wow.

A great deal of safety and trust will reflect in the way your profile looks and displays info about you and your pets.

Just like you would want your Website to look, and be informative.

 Being able to visit another Pet Owners Profile first will give you a chance to get to know this Pet Owner a bit more, before contacting them.

Pet Classifieds

Placing a Pet Classifieds on “Home” page, for everyone to view (incl. Non –members), of course is less safe (be wise about any personal info you display like e-mail or phone).

Caution: Free classifieds also tend to attract scammers and spammers. Please use caution and common sense as you approach anyone to initiate communication, and remember that your use of any information found on Horse, Dog and Cat Paw-Wow.com is AT YOUR OWN RISK. Please see our Terms & Conditions for more information.

.

Placing a Pet Classified local on “My Home” is safer and only registered members can view them.
