display-guidelines

From IndieWeb


display guidelines are (sometimes also called syndication policy) instructions on a website for how other websites may or should (not) show information (like quotes, icons, other content) from that website.

  • Counterpart: remote content policy β€” your policy about how you will treat or show content from other websites
