+### Appropriate Content for Community Resources
+
+All communications properties are under the [Kubernetes code of conduct]. 
+Additionally, these resources are for the contributors and users of Kubernetes; commercial usage of these properties is heavily moderated.
+Note that commercial content is allowed, unsolicited commercial content mostly is NOT:
+
+Examples of inappropriate content:
+- Posting unsolicited content of a commercial nature on Slack or other community forums
+- Messaging people individually on a platform with content of an unsolicited commercial nature
+- Unsolicited pitching of commercial products during a Kubernetes meeting
+
+Examples of appropriate content:
+- Asking about commercial products in an appropriate channel. For example most clouds have a channel in Slack, asking how to use GKE on the GKE channel or AKS on the Azure channels is fine.
+- "Does anyone have experience with project foo?" is fine
+- Some OSS projects are also hosted on the Kubernetes Slack that also have a commercial offering, these are allowed.
