COMMUNITY GUIDELINES

Report conditions, not people.

DirtyTable exists to document cleanliness conditions at places selling or serving food.

Good reports include:

• The correct food establishment and location.
• The approximate date of the visit.
• Photographs of the actual condition.
• A factual description of what the reporter personally observed.
• Whether staff or management were informed.

Do not post:

• Photographs of people using a restroom.
• Threats or harassment.
• Unrelated personal information.
• Claims about things you did not personally observe.
• Material intended to target individual employees.

Independent confirmations

"I Was There Too" confirmations are separate observations from other community members. They provide additional evidence but do not automatically create a health-code violation or government finding.

Moderation

Reports, confirmations, follow-ups and establishment responses are reviewed before publication.
