Ensuring that your social media accounts have necessary privacy settings may be important for your mental health, wellbeing and safety as an LGBTQ+ person.
If you are worried about family or friends seeing that you have ‘liked’ our Facebook page, you can hide that you have done so by selecting the “Likes” from the dropdown menu on your profile, under “More”. On the top right, click on the pencil and select “Edit Privacy”. Click on the people next to “Other” and change the setting to “Only Me”.
Twitter allows you to set your account to private, so people can only read your tweets with your permission.
You can 'save' facebook events instead of clicking 'going' which could be visible to your facebook friends.
We will never post a photo of/tag anyone who comes to events without their consent. If you would like a photo taken down/to be untagged at any point, please message the facebook page or email oupubl@gmail.com.
We’d also like to reassure you that our mailing list is confidential. The society does not disclose the mailing list to third parties, and committee members who have access to it will never reveal your membership.
At the top right of every page on this website (Desktop Site only), you will find a 'Quick Escape' button. Clicking on that button will automatically take you to the BBC Weather homepage. We chose that site because weather might be less suspicious than taking you to a blank Google screen!
