All PA DeMolay websites MUST adhere to the following requirements.

1. All Chapter websites must be approved by the Chapter Advisory Council before being posted. The Advisory Council must appoint a site advisor, whose name must appear on the site. This web advisor is responsible for the content and appropriateness of the site.

2. Non-Chapter sites, if they involve active DeMolays in any way, must also have a web advisor, who must be a registered and approved Adult Volunteer.

3. An e-mail contact for the web advisor and/or webmaster must appear on the site.

4. The site should contain links to both PA DeMolay and DeMolay International.

5. The site must contain an allegiance statement, as follows: "This website [or "This online publication"] acknowledges the authority and yields allegiance to DeMolay International, of which Frank S. Land was Founder."

6. Addresses, home or cell phone numbers, and other direct contact information should never be posted for Active DeMolays under 18. E-mail addresses may be posted for active members, but only with their approval. Parental approval is needed for posting of any personal information, including e-mail, for members 13 and younger.

7. Links should be carefully chosen, and periodically monitored for appropriateness. Links to sites inconsistent with the principles of DeMolay are not permitted. Links to member's individual home pages are permitted, provided they give their permission to be linked. It is assumed that our members will maintain their own sites in conformity with DeMolay principles, but it is the responsibility of the DeMolay site owners to ensure appropriateness before linking to a member's site.

8. Under no circumstances may any DeMolay site contain pornography, obscenity (including obscene language), sexual or other inappropriate humor, or material which is racist, sexist, or otherwise inconsistent with the high ideals of DeMolay. The Executive Officer, or his designee, has final right to determine appropriateness of material, and inappropriate material must be removed immediately upon notice from PA DeMolay. In some cases, additional measures may be taken, such as removal of a site or other appropriate disciplinary action.
