"We have a Community Guidelines- I agree to the following TRACE community guidelines: There is no “right” way to transition: At TRACE, we celebrate the breadth and depth of our community by rejoicing in all transition journeys. We are not here to judge or place our community within defined boxes; therefore, as a member of this community, you agree to uphold these values and make TRACE a safe place for everyone in transition. Respect Pronouns & Names; Respecting a person’s name and pronouns is of the utmost importance for creating a safe and comfortable environment for all members of our community. Pronouns can be found on member profiles; however, if you cannot see them or are unsure, it’s always okay to ask, “May I ask what your pronouns are?” When joining this community, you agree to use names and pronouns correctly and respectfully. Respect Boundaries; For some, transitioning is a very public and outward experience; for others, it’s a more private and inward experience. No matter how someone chooses to share their transition, they define their boundaries for sharing and how they would like to engage in our community. Boundaries may ebb and flow over time, but in this community, respecting boundaries is critical for facilitating a safe environment. Celebrate, Don’t Hate; TRACE is defined by the collective joy we create in supporting our community. Therefore, TRACE will not tolerate judgemental or harmful commentary. Before posting, ask yourself, “will this positively impact the TRACE community?” If no, hold back; if yes, then spread positivity! As a member of the TRACE community, you agree to follow these guidelines. Inability to do so may result in suspension or termination of your account." __Update (Oct 3, 2024):__ TRACE announced that they will be shutting down and no longer available to users starting on October 30, 2024. "This decision has not come easily, but after careful consideration, we recognize that we must prioritize the well-being of our users and the sustainability of the platform. We encourage you to take this time to save any personal data, journal entries, or memories you wish to keep from the platform before it becomes unavailable. We are here to support you through this transition and will do our best to make it as smooth as possible. Thank you for believing in TRACE and for being a part of our family. We will miss you dearly. Please note for your safety all data associated with your account will be permanently deleted within 30 days of TRACE's closure."
