Community Guidelines

Updated January 27, 2025

Pr3ss3D is a source of entertainment and enrichment where you can discover, create, and connect with others across the world. Our mission is to inspire creativity and bring joy.

We have Community Guidelines to create a welcoming, safe, and entertaining experience. The guidelines apply to everyone and everything on our platform. They include rules for what is allowed and not allowed on Pr3ss3D. To address new risks and harms, the guidelines are updated on an ongoing basis.

To help you read through the guidelines, we organize them by topic area and highlight each rule in bold. Under each section you can click More information for definitions, examples, and clarifications to common questions. The examples do not cover everything (we are telling you this now so that you do not have to repeatedly read the phrase "including but not limited to"). If you are ever in doubt about what to share, please remember to be kind and treat others the way that you would want to be treated.

Thank you for helping to keep Pr3ss3D a welcoming space for everyone!

Content Moderation

Keeping our platform safe, trustworthy, and vibrant requires balancing creative expression and preventing harm. We use a combination of safety approaches to strike the right balance:

Remove content that we do not allow

Everyone who joins Pr3ss3D has the ability to freely share content on the platform. However, we remove content--whether posted publicly or privately--when we find that it violates our rules.

Restrict content that is not suitable for youth

We allow a range of content on our platform but also recognize that not all of it may be suitable for younger audiences. We restrict content that may not be suitable so that it is only viewed by adults (18 years and older).

Empower our community with information, tools, and resources

We want to make sure you have the right information to help you manage your experience on Pr3ss3D. We may add labels, icons, or warnings to provide more context.

Community Principles

Pr3ss3D has nine guiding community principles that are grounded in safety and our commitment to respecting human rights. Our principles shape our day-to-day work and guide how we approach difficult enforcement decisions. They are centered on these themes:

• Balancing harm prevention and expression

• Embracing human dignity

• Ensuring our actions are fair

We recognize that sometimes these principles will be in tension with each other, and we carefully consider when we weigh one over another. These considerations are informed by international legal frameworks and industry best practices, including the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, the International Bill of Human Rights, and the Convention on the Rights of Children. We also seek input from our community, safety and public health experts.

1. Prevent harm: Our primary focus is keeping Pr3ss3D safe and a place for joy. We consider the many ways that content or behavior may impact our diverse community. This includes individual physical, psychological, financial, and privacy harms, as well as societal harms. To strike the right balance with free expression, we restrict content only when necessary and in a way that seeks to minimize the impact on speech.

2. Enable free expression: The creativity unlocked by expression is what powers our vibrant community. We honor this principle by providing the opportunity to share freely on our platform while also proactively addressing behavior that can inhibit the speech of others. However, free expression is not an absolute right – it is always considered in proportion to its potential and real harm.

3. Foster civility: Civility creates respect between people and helps communities thrive. The way we engage with each other online can sometimes threaten positive interactions with others, so being civil on Pr3ss3D is critical to fulfilling our mission. This means acknowledging everyone’s inherent dignity and conducting ourselves as if we were face-to-face.

4. Champion inclusion: We want people from around the world to feel welcome on our platform. We value and celebrate different cultures, identities, appearances, viewpoints, interests, and experiences. We know some communities historically have been afforded fewer opportunities for engagement, so we are committed to the principle of equality and mitigating harms that disproportionately affect marginalized groups.

5. Protect individual privacy: We are committed to protecting and respecting the privacy of our community and of individuals who are shown or discussed in content on the platform. We seek to ensure that content shared on the platform does not expose anyone’s personal information or invade their intimate privacy.

6. Provide transparency and consistency: We want everyone to know what our rules and standards are and how we apply them. We seek to provide clear notice of our policies and practices, to apply them consistently and equitably, and to share our enforcement efforts transparently. We will be clear throughout the guidelines when we need to prioritize another principle over consistency, such as local context or inclusion.

7. Be fair and just: Moderating millions of pieces of content each day is a complex effort, and developing a trusted process to do so is foundational. We are committed to being impartial and evidence-based, producing fair outcomes, giving notice of enforcement actions, and providing an opportunity to appeal.

8. Empower Subscribers and Content Creators: Pr3ss3D, in its full featured version, launching soon, by the nature of its unique functionality, gives you the ability to more perfectly craft your own social media content and audience, in relation to all other social media platforms. However, the design also requires your honest participation to ensure that content meant for one audience isn’t shown to another and that your audience participation is also administered honestly and that the reporting features are not abused.

9. Stopping bad actors at the door: Pr3ss3D, in its full featured version, launching soon, by the nature of its paywall verification process, is also designed to stop bots, scammers, bad actors, and we only will allow one account, per real and verified person. That does not mean that we can stop every bad actor at the door, but we are dedicated to finding accounts that found ways to bypass our checks and enforce out Terms of Service against such accounts.

Youth Safety and Well-Being

We are deeply committed to Pr3ss3D being a safe and positive experience for people under the age of 18 (we refer to them as "youth" or "young people"). This starts by being old enough to use Pr3ss3D. You must be 13 years and older to have an account on your own. All accounts for younger than 13 years of age are Dependent Accounts. Dependent Accounts will not convert to an independent account until the Dependent Account holder reaches 18 years of age. Independent accounts are all dependent upon a payment method in their name and other personal information.  There are additional age limitations based on local law in some regions.

Pr3ss3D, in its full featured version, launching soon, by the nature of its unique functionality, requires an age-appropriate tag (0-5 [All ages can view, but meant for little ones {G}], 6-12 [little ones can’t view, but meant for kids {PG}], 13-17 [little ones and kids cannot view, meant for school age teens {PG-13}], 18+ [Adults only]), for all content published by Content Creators. Intentionally tagging content meant for a mature audience as all ages, is a clear and egregious violation of our Terms of Service.

If we learn someone is posting harmful content to young audiences, we will ban that account and take two years of subscription fees as penalty and, depending upon the exact nature of the content, refer you to the proper authorities. If you believe you were incorrectly banned, you can appeal the decision. Anyone can report accounts that they suspect are posting harmful content, either in-app or online.

We do not allow content or audience engagement that may put young people at risk of psychological, physical, or developmental harm. If we become aware an account holder has a severe violation or has committed a sexual offense against a young person, we will ban the account, as well as any other accounts we find belonging to that person and use information both collected and available to us to prevent that person from holding a Pr3ss3D account again, plus the penalty for each account found, including any other persons and accounts working in conjunction with the violating account in any way. We report incidents of youth sexual abuse and exploitation to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC). We also report to relevant law enforcement authorities when there is a specific, credible, and imminent threat to human life or serious physical injury.

To provide young people with an experience that is developmentally suitable and a safe space for self-exploration, we take several steps including:

• Setting minimum age requirements for access to certain product features, including the Shoppe, and being 13 years of age, up to 18 years of age, to have your account be eligible for separation from the Independent Account. All accounts of minors become separated from the Independent Account upon their 18th birthday.

• Using restrictive default privacy settings

• Developing content levels to restrict content that may not be suitable for people under the age of 18, and providing you with content filtering options

• A more rigorous system content and comment filter with a lower confidence threshold of positive findings on content viewable to all younger audiences.

We allow a range of content on our platform, but some of it is only made available to adults. Here is a consolidated "quick guide" of content restricted from younger audiences.

Safety and Civility

Physical and psychological safety form the foundation of individual well-being, and civility is key to a thriving community. Being civil does not mean you must always agree, but rather it is about recognizing everyone's inherent dignity and being respectful in action, words, and tone when engaging others.

Violent and Criminal Behavior

We are committed to bringing people together in a way that does not lead to physical conflict. We recognize that online content related to violence can cause real-world harm. We do not allow any violent threats, promotion of violence, incitement to violence, or promotion of criminal activities that may harm people, animals, or property.

Hate Speech and Hateful Behavior

Pr3ss3D is enriched by the diversity of our community. Our differences should be embraced, rather than a cause for division. We do not allow any hate speech, hateful behavior, or promotion of hateful ideologies. This includes explicit or implicit content that attacks a protected group.

When there are discussions about social issues on Pr3ss3D, we want them to be respectful. Content may be deemed a violation of our Terms of Service, when it indirectly demeans protected groups.

We work to counter hate and provide functions and tools that can help limit unwanted interactions, including restricting options for comments, Cut-Ins, and messaging.

Hateful ideologies are systems of beliefs that exclude, oppress, or otherwise discriminate against individuals based on their protected attributes.

Protected groups means individuals or communities that share protected attributes.

Protected attributes mean personal characteristics that you are either born with, are immutable, or it would cause severe psychological harm if you were forced to change them or were attacked because of them. This includes:

In addition, we also provide some protections related to age and may consider other protected attributes when we have additional context, such as specific regional information provided to us by a local non-governmental organization (NGO). The attributes listed above are informed by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and international conventions.

NOT ALLOWED

• Denying, or minimizing the scale of, well-documented historical events that harmed protected groups, such as denying the existence of the Holocaust or the genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda

• Accusing a protected group of being responsible for bad acts caused by one person with that protected attribute, such as using one example of harmful behavior caused by an immigrant to suggest all immigrants are dangerous

• Content that dehumanizes or denies the existence of people because of their protected attributes, such as saying people have a mental illness if they identify as transgender

• Deadnaming or misgendering someone by using their former name or gender rather than their chosen identity, or by promoting conversion therapy programs that attempt to change a person's sexual orientation or gender identity

Violent and Hateful Organizations and Individuals

We want you to share what inspires you, but Pr3ss3D is not a place to spread beliefs or propaganda that encourage violence or hate. We do not allow the presence of violent and hateful organizations or individuals on our platform. These actors include violent extremists, violent criminal organizations, violent political organizations, hateful organizations, and individuals who cause serial or mass violence. If we become aware that any of these actors may be on our platform, we will conduct a thorough review which may result in an account ban and penalty.

Often the ideas of these actors are amplified by others. We do not allow anyone to promote or provide material support to violent or hateful actors. Content that may appear neutral, such as featuring a quote from a hateful organization or individual, must make clear that there is no intent to promote it. We make limited exceptions for discussions about violent political organizations and news reporting.

Material support means giving financial contributions, goods, or services to promote violent organizations or individuals, or their cause. This includes recruitment, fundraising, selling merchandise, and promoting training materials.

Violent extremists are non-state groups, including those designated by the United Nations, that threaten or use violence against civilians for political, religious, ethnic, or ideological reasons.

Violent criminal organizations are transnational, national, or local groups that commit serious crimes, including violence, trafficking, and kidnapping.

Violent political organizations are non-state actors that commit violent acts primarily against state actors (such as a national military) rather than civilians, as part of ongoing political disputes (such as territorial claims).

Hateful organizations are groups who target people on the basis of protected attributes, including inciting hate, dehumanizing individuals or groups, and promoting hateful ideologies.

NOT ALLOWED

• Accounts operated by organizations or individuals that promote violence or hateful ideologies on or off-platform

This includes child sexual abuse material (CSAM), grooming, sextortion, sexual solicitation, pedophilia, and physical or psychological harm of young people.

This includes sexualization through the platform (such as imitating a sexual act through a duet or a sticker), making statements about intimate body parts or sexual performance, or sharing or threatening to share information about a person's sexual life (such as sexual history or partners, or sexual orientation).

Intimate body parts means genitalia, buttocks, and breasts (including nipple and areola).

Adult Sexual and Physical Abuse

We are committed to providing a space that embraces gender equity, supports healthy relationships, and respects intimate privacy. Undermining these values can cause trauma and may lead to physical and psychological harm. We do not allow showing, promoting, or engaging in adult sexual or physical abuse or exploitation. This includes non-consensual sexual acts, image-based sexual abuse, sextortion, physical abuse, and sexual harassment.

If you or someone you know has experienced abuse or exploitation, support is available. Contact a helpline or service provider in your region. If you are in immediate danger, contact your local emergency services. If you believe you have experienced an intimate privacy violation on our platform, you can report it.

Non-consensual sexual acts means any sexual contact that happens without the consent of everyone involved in the activity. This includes any non-consensual sexual contact, such as rape and molestation.

Image-based sexual abuse is possessing, distributing, or providing instructions on how to create or access intimate images (real or altered) of an individual that were created or distributed for a sexual purpose without their consent. Content may be distributed without consent even if it appears to have been taken with consent.

Sextortion is a threat to share nude, intimate, or sexually explicit content without consent, usually to get money, sexual acts, or more nude, intimate, or sexually explicit content.

Human Trafficking and Smuggling

We are committed to upholding individual human dignity and ensuring Pr3ss3D is not used to take advantage of vulnerable people. We do not allow human trafficking and smuggling. We understand how important it is for survivors of human trafficking and smuggling to share their stories, and for migrants to be able to document their journeys, so we provide a space to do so.

We report incidents of youth sex trafficking to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC). We also report to relevant law enforcement authorities when there is a specific, credible, and imminent threat to human life or serious physical injury.

Human trafficking is a form of modern slavery that can occur domestically or internationally and involves the recruitment of victims, coordination of their transport, and their exploitation using force, fraud, coercion, or deception. It can include sex, labor, child, or organ trafficking, forced marriage, forced criminality (such as exploitative begging), domestic servitude, and child soldiers.

Human smuggling involves earning a profit by helping a person to illegally enter another country. It can include providing transportation, consultation, identity, and travel document fraud.

Harassment and Bullying

We welcome the respectful expression of different viewpoints and want to ensure that anyone can share their voice without the fear of being degraded or bullied. We do not allow harassing, degrading, or bullying statements or behavior. This includes responding to such acts with retaliatory harassment.

We recognize that public figures are in a position of public attention, have ways to counter negative speech, and that some content related to them may be in the public interest to view. We do allow some negative or critical comments or images about public figures. However, we still remove content that violates other policies (such as violent threats, hate speech, or sexual exploitation), as well as serious forms of harassment (such as doxxing or expressing a desire that someone experience serious physical harm).

If you or someone you know is being bullied, help is available. We offer unique as well as common features and tools that can help limit harmful interactions, including restricting options for comments, Cut-Ins, and messaging.

Doxxing involves publishing personal information about someone online with a malicious intent. We recognize intent can be subjective, so we use objective indicators to help us understand it, such as captions, tags, and hashtags.

Public figures are adults (18 years and older) with a significant public role, such as a government official, politician, business leader, or celebrity. We do not identify people under the age of 18 as public figures.

Private figures are all people under the age of 18, and adults (18 years and older) who are not public figures.

If you or someone you know is experiencing concerns about body image, food, or exercise, support is available. Contact a helpline in your region.

Disordered eating and dangerous weight loss behaviors means extreme dieting or fasting or misusing medication or engaging in exercise for weight loss that may create a significant and immediate health or well-being risk.

Potentially harmful weight management means diets, medication, or exercise used for rapid or drastic weight loss or muscle gain that may create a long-term health or well-being risk.

  • Physical disabilities and differently-abled bodies

Dangerous Activity and Challenges

We welcome opportunities to participate in fun and creative trends. Most activities or challenges are suitable for everyone and bring people together, but some pose a risk of significant injury. We do not allow showing or promoting dangerous activity and challenges.

Content is restricted (18 years and older) if it shows activity that is likely to be imitated and may lead to any physical harm. To help you manage your Pr3ss3D experience, we also apply warning information to this type of content, as well as to content showing professionals performing extreme sports and stunts. If you believe the content encourages dangerous and harmful behaviors, actions or stunts, report it.

Dangerous activity and challenges are acts performed by non-professionals that pose inherent or known risks and which may result in significant physical harm. This includes dares, games, tricks, inappropriate use of dangerous tools, and eating substances that are harmful to an individual's health.

Significant physical harm is harm that usually requires professional medical treatment and poses a risk of temporary or permanent disability or disfigurement. This includes dislocated or broken bones, poisoning, loss of consciousness, serious burns, electrocution, concussion, and choking.

Sensitive and Mature Themes

Pr3ss3D provides content that ranges from very family friendly to more mature. Given the diversity of our global community, developmental and cultural considerations inform our approach to potentially sensitive and more mature content that may be considered offensive by some. To honor our principle of respecting local context and not imposing the norms of one country on another, some of the applications of the guidelines in this section differ across regions.

Sexual Activity and Services

Pr3ss3D is a place where you can come to discuss or learn about sexuality, sex, or reproductive health. We are mindful that certain content may not be suitable for young people, may be considered offensive by some, or may create the potential for exploitation. We do not allow sexual activity or services. This includes sex, sexual arousal, fetish and kink behavior, and seeking or offering sexual services. However, it does not include reproductive health and sex education content.

Fetish and kink behavior includes BDSM (bondage, discipline, domination, submission, sadism, and masochism), and sexual behaviors with non-human objects or with specific body parts (such as a foot fetish).

Reproductive health means the physical, mental and social well-being in all matters relating to the reproductive system and to its functions and processes.

Sex education means a broad variety of topics related to sex, sexuality, sexual health, and relationships.

NOT ALLOWED

• Showing penetrative sex, non-penetrative sex, or oral sex

• Showing physical sexual arousal, including sexual stimulation and physical responses to sexual arousal

• Fetish or kink activity

• Sexual services, including offering or asking for sexual acts (solicitation), sexual chats, imagery, pornography, member exclusive content, and streaming of adult content through a webcam, such as stripping, nude modeling, and masturbation (sexcamming)

• Sexual chats, imagery, or pornography

ALLOWED

• Reproductive health and sex education content, such as the use of birth control and abortion discussed in a medical or scientific context related to procedures, surgeries, or examinations

Nudity and Body Exposure

We celebrate all shapes and sizes and want you to feel comfortable in how you present yourself and your body. We understand societies approach body exposure and clothing differently, so we seek to reflect prevailing cultural practices. We do not allow nudity. This includes bare genitalia, buttocks, breasts of women and girls, and sheer clothing.

We want to provide young people with an experience that is developmentally suitable. We do not allow semi-nudity or significant body exposure of young people. 

We also do not want to amplify content that may not be suitable for a wide audience. Content is restricted (18 years and older) if it shows semi-nudity of an adult. We expect Content Creators to tag content for age groups appropriately. We allow regional exceptions for body exposure in limited situations, such as cultural practices.

Nudity means being unclothed and showing bare intimate body parts that prevailing cultural practices indicate should be fully covered. This includes bare breasts of women and girls, but not of men and boys (including those who are transgender or intersex), or people who are non-binary. We recognize that some individuals do not describe their gender in binary terms and acknowledge the complexity of applying this policy. When reviewing such content, we look at how someone self-describes using first-party information and indicators, such as captions, hashtags, or bio, and then may also look at how the person presents.

Intimate body parts means genitalia, buttocks, and breasts (including nipple and areola).

Semi-nudity means being mostly unclothed and close to (but not actually) nude, such as implied nudity or wearing clothes that minimally cover intimate body parts.

Significant body exposure means being clothed but having partially uncovered intimate body parts or only wearing intimate clothing, such as underwear.

NOT ALLOWED

• Showing nudity of adults and young people, including photography and digitally created images, such as manga and anime

• Showing semi-nudity or significant body exposure of young people, such as extremely cropped shirts, or only wearing underwear or lingerie

RESTRICTED (18 years and older)

  • Cultural practice, such as breastfeeding or chest feeding, populations who do not traditionally wear coverings, or during large traditional celebration festivals (such as Carnival)

  • Documentary or educational contexts, such as political protests

  • Scientific or medical contexts, such as breast reconstruction after a mastectomy

  • Historically known works of art of a non-sexual nature

• Showing body exposure that appears in culturally expected contexts, such as someone wearing a swimsuit at a beach or festival, or an athlete wearing a sports bra

Sexually Suggestive Content

We welcome you to creatively express yourself, celebrate your culture, or seek to entertain. We are mindful that certain behaviors related to sexual arousal or suggestiveness may be offensive to some people and may put young people at risk of exploitation. We do not allow content by young people that intends to be sexually suggestive. This includes intimate kissing, sexualized framing, or sexualized behavior. We also do not allow sexually explicit language by anyone. We do allow some artistic content with sexual references, such as song lyrics.

Content is restricted (18 years and older) if it shows intimate kissing, sexualized framing, or sexualized behavior by adults, or if it shows sex products.

Intent is referenced to be clear that other people finding you sexually arousing is not against the rules. However, we also acknowledge that intent can be subjective. To help us understand it, we use objective indicators, including a bio, hashtags, captions (such as "do you like what you see"), or sounds (such as moaning). We also recognize that different regions have varying views on what is considered sexually suggestive, which also informs our assessment.

Intimate body parts means genitalia, buttocks, and breasts (including nipple and areola).

Intimate kissing means kissing that may indicate sexual arousal or the beginning of a sexual interaction.

Sexualized framing means content that intentionally emphasizes clothed intimate body parts through techniques, such as filming, editing, or positioning of the body in front of the camera.

Sexualized behavior means behavior that is intended to be sexually arousing, including performances or repetitive body movements emphasizing intimate body parts, and imitating sexual acts.

Sex product means an object or device that is designed to be used for sexual pleasure, such as a sex toy.

NOT ALLOWED

• Using sexually explicit language, such as graphic descriptions of sexual acts or arousal

• Showing young people engaging in:

  • Intimate kissing, such as kissing that includes closed or open mouths, tongues, biting, sucking, or groping

• Showing sex products

ALLOWED

Shocking and Graphic Content

Part of the joy of Pr3ss3D is coming across new and unexpected content. But the platform is not a place to intentionally shock, upset, or disgust others. We recognize this type of content may be triggering, cause psychological harm, or lead to extreme discomfort. We do not allow gory, gruesome, disturbing, or extremely violent content.

Content is restricted (18 years and older) if it shows human or animal blood, extreme physical fighting, or graphic footage of events that would otherwise violate our rules but are in the public interest to view.

Integrity and Authenticity

We want you to feel confident that you can access information that is reliable, discover content that is original, and engage with people who are authentic. This is foundational to building a community of trust and accountability both on and off-platform.

Misinformation

In a global community, it is natural for people to have different opinions, but we seek to operate on a shared set of facts and reality. We do not allow misinformation that may cause significant harm to individuals or society, regardless of intent. We rely on independent fact-checking partners, guidance from public health authorities, and our database of previously fact-checked claims to help assess the accuracy of content.

You mostly control your Pr3ss3D experience. We may help by applying warning labels to content that has been assessed by our fact-checking partners and cannot be verified as accurate. We may also send prompts to reconsider sharing such content.

Misinformation means false or misleading content.

Significant harm means severe forms of physical harm (including life-threatening injury or death), psychological harm (including trauma), large-scale property damage, and societal harm (including undermining fundamental social processes or institutions).

Moderate harm health misinformation means false or misleading content regarding the treatment or prevention of injuries, conditions, or illnesses that are not immediate or life-threatening.

Conspiracy theories means beliefs about unexplained events, or involve rejecting generally accepted explanations for events, including suggesting they were carried out by covert or powerful individuals or groups.

Repurposed media means unedited media content that is presented out of context and may mislead a person about a developing topic of public importance.

Misrepresented authoritative sources means content that promotes misleading correlations or conclusions related to authoritative information that is recognized and trusted, such as reports from research institutions.

Civic and Election Integrity

Elections are important events and are often the subject of intense discussion and analysis. We try to balance enabling these discussions, while also being a place that brings people together and does not cause division. We do not allow paid political promotion, political advertising, or fundraising by politicians and political parties (for themselves or others). Our political advertising policy includes both traditional paid advertisements and creators receiving compensation to support or oppose a candidate for office.

We want to enable the informed exchange of civic ideas in a way that fosters productive dialogue. We do not allow misinformation or content about civic and electoral processes that may result in voter interference, disrupt the peaceful transfer of power, or lead to off-platform violence.

Edited Media and AI-Generated Content (AIGC)

We welcome the creativity that new artificial intelligence (AI) and other digital technologies may unlock. However, AI and other digital editing technologies can make it difficult to tell the difference between fact and fiction, which may mislead individuals or harm society. We encourage you to add the AICG tag, or by adding a clear caption, watermark, or sticker of your own.

Even when appropriately labeled, AIGC or edited media may still be harmful. We do not allow content that shares or shows fake authoritative sources or crisis events or falsely shows public figures in certain contexts. This includes being bullied, making an endorsement, or being endorsed.

We are committed to protecting people's privacy. We do not allow content that contains the likeness of young people, or the likeness of adult private figures used without their permission.

AI-generated content (AIGC) is content, including images, video, or audio, that is created or modified by artificial intelligence (AI) technology or machine-learning processes. This content may include images of real people and may show highly realistic-appearing scenes or use a particular artistic style, such as a painting, cartoons, or anime.

Significantly edited content is content that shows people doing something they did not do, saying something they did not say, or altering their appearance in a way that makes them difficult to recognize or identify. This includes applying certain face filters, or an animation of an individual.

Misleading AIGC or edited media is audio or visual content that has been edited, including by combining different clips together, to change the composition, sequencing, or timing in a way that alters the meaning of the content and could mislead viewers about the truth of real world events.

Realistic-appearing scenes or people is content that uses are scenes, using images, video, or audio, that would lead someone to believe that the person shown is real or the event took place in the real world, such as a scene that is shown in the style or quality of a photograph or video.

Likeness is a clear representation of an individual. It includes audio and visual representation, and may show their face, body, or their distinctive appearance, gestures, or mannerisms.

Public figures are adults (18 years and older) with a significant public role, such as a government official, politician, business leader, or celebrity. We do not identify people under the age of 18 as public figures.

Private figures are all people under the age of 18, and adults (18 years and older) who are not public figures.

REQUIRED DISCLOSURE (using the AIGC tag or a clear caption, watermark, or sticker)

• Content that is either completely generated or significantly edited by AI and contains realistic-appearing scenes or people

Fake Engagement

Authentic engagement is central to the integrity of our platform and informs how we recommend content that you may find interesting. We do not allow the trade or marketing of services that attempt to artificially increase engagement or deceive Pr3ss3D's recommendation system. While Pr3ss3D stops most fake and other bad actors at the door, if we become aware of accounts or content with inauthentically inflated metrics, we will remove the associated fake followers or likes.

NOT ALLOWED

• Facilitating the trade or marketing of services that artificially increase engagement, such as selling followers or likes

• Providing instructions on how to artificially increase engagement on Pr3ss3D

Unoriginal Content

The creativity on Pr3ss3D is what makes it great, so you should only post your own work. We do not allow content that violates someone else's intellectual property rights. If we become aware of content that is a violation, we may remove it. Because of the nature of how Pr3ss3D works to protect the content on our platform as a sellable, imposter accounts or repost accounts, will usually help drive the traffic of the original content creator of Pr3ss3D, and not provide much gain for the imposter or “re-poster” account and might be left alone because of this. Pr3ss3D and the original content creator are in control of these decisions.

If you believe you have experienced an IP violation, you can file a copyright report or a trademark report in the reporting feature of the app or online.

Intellectual property refers to the ownership of something that you created, which includes copyright and trademarks.

Copyrights are legal rights related to original works of authorship, including music and videos. Copyrights protect the original expression of an idea (such as the specific way a video or music is expressed or created) but do not protect underlying ideas and facts.

Trademarks are words, symbols, slogans, designs, or a combination of these that identifies the source of a product or service and distinguishes it from other products or services.

NOT ALLOWED

• Content that violates someone else's copyrights, trademarks, or other intellectual property rights

Spam and Deceptive Behavior

To build a trusted community online, it is important that the behaviors and identities on your accounts are authentic and truthful. We do not allow account behavior that may spam or mislead our community. This includes conducting covert influence operations, manipulating engagement signals to amplify the reach of certain content, and operating spam or impersonation accounts. Parody or fan-based accounts are allowed, as long as they are clearly disclosed in the handle name, bio or content notes.

You can set up multiple accounts to create different channels for authentic creative expression, but not for deceptive purposes. We do not allow the use of accounts to engage in platform manipulation. This includes the use of automation to register or operate accounts in bulk, distribute high-volume commercial content, artificially increase engagement signals, and circumvent enforcement of our guidelines.

If your account has been banned, suspended, or restricted from using a feature, you must not set up a new account or use a different existing account to get around the ban, suspension or restriction.

If we determine you have engaged in any of these deceptive account behaviors, we will sanction the account in some way, including feature restrictions, suspensions or ban the account (depending upon the violation, nature of violation, repetition of violation or other metrics). If banned, we will use all collected and available information to attempt to prevent another account being created, by the banned individual. All bans incur a penalty of two (2) years of subscription fees.

Covert influence operations (CIO) are coordinated, inauthentic behaviors where networks of accounts work together to mislead people or our systems and try to strategically influence public discussion. This may include attempting to undermine the results of an election, influencing parts of an armed conflict, or shaping public discussion of social issues.

We work hard to protect and secure you and your information on Pr3ss3D. We do not allow: (1) access to any part of Pr3ss3D through unauthorized methods; (2) attempts to obtain sensitive, confidential, commercial, or personal information; or (3) any abuse of the security, integrity, or reliability of our platform.

You should avoid clicking on suspicious links or responding to requests for information about your account details, passwords, verification qualification, financial, and other personal information.

NOT ALLOWED

• Providing other people with access to your account credentials or enabling other people to conduct activities that violate our rules

• Accessing our platform in an unauthorized way, or creating fake versions of our platform

• Sharing malicious files, content, and messages that contain viruses, Trojan horses, worms, logic bombs, or other harmful materials endangering cyber security

• Attempting to obtain personal information (such as login credentials) or access content, accounts, systems, or data through the use of any deceptive technique (such as phishing, smishing, automated scripts, or web crawling)

• Modifying, adapting, translating, reverse engineering, disassembling, decompiling, or creating any derivative products based on Pr3ss3D, including any files, tables or documentation, and attempting to regenerate any source code, algorithms, methods, or techniques embodied in Pr3ss3D

Accounts and Features

Accounts

You must be 13 years and older to have an account on your own. There are additional age limitations based on local law in some regions. If we learn someone is below the minimum age to have an account, that is not a Dependent Account on Pr3ss3D, we will ban that account with penalty.

Violating our rules can lead to enforcement actions on accounts. We will ban accounts or account holders if they engage in:

• A single severe content violation

• Repeated content violations

• Circumventing enforcement of our guidelines

• The operation of accounts dedicated to activity that violates our rules

This includes all activity that has a primary purpose that is not allowed on our platform, such as accounts focused on hate speech, the trade or marketing of prohibited goods, spam, or impersonation. In the case of severe violations of our rules or engagement in circumvention behavior, we may also ban any other existing accounts related to or seemingly in coordination of the account holder on our platform.

We will also ban an account if we become aware that the account holder is a violent or hateful actor or has committed a sexual offense against a young person. We consider off-platform activity and information related to violence, hate, and child sexual abuse or exploitation to help make decisions about these account bans. We report accounts to law enforcement authorities if there is a specific, credible, and imminent threat to human life or serious physical injury.

News and Government, Politician, and Political Party Accounts

News entities, governments, politicians, and political party accounts all play important roles in civic processes and civil society. While we treat their content just like any other account and remove violations, we approach account-level enforcement differently to align with our commitment to respecting human rights and free expression. These public interest accounts will be banned for any single severe content violation, such as threatening violence. For repeated content violations that are less severe, they may incur other actions including but not limited to, warnings, restrictions, or short suspensions. In limited circumstances, they may also be temporarily restricted from posting new content.

News entities include organizations primarily dedicated to publishing news content to inform or educate. To qualify as a news account, the account must be legally licensed, certified or recognized by an intergovernmental organization, regulator, or reputable press organization.

Governments and politicians include federal or national elected officials and candidates, state/provincial/territorial/local government entities, cabinet ministers, and official spokespeople.

Severe violations include:

• Promoting, inciting, or threatening violence

• Showing or trading child sexual abuse material (CSAM)

• Engaging in youth sexual solicitation or grooming

• Showing or promoting non-consensual sex acts, such as rape or molestation

• Coordinating or facilitating human smuggling acts and services

• Recruiting or coordinating human trafficking acts

• Showing real-world torture

Pr3ss3D ShowTime

Pr3ss3D ShowTime allows you, with a Content Creator subscription, to create content, interact with audiences, and build your community in real-time. To support a safe experience on ShowTime, we have restrictions for young people using this feature. 

Young people under 18 years of age who have a Content Creator subscription (Dependent and Independent accounts), are limited to only being viewed and engaged with by subscribers who are in corresponding age groups, and their MyCommunity members. And young people under 18 years of age cannot view or access ShowTimes, or any other content, that are not tagged for their age-appropriate category.

Any violation of our rules may lead to closing an ongoing ShowTime session and may lead to temporary restrictions on using ShowTime or ShowTime features, or an account ban. Accounts must be Content Creator accounts to access the ShowTime feature.

A ShowTime may not be for the main purpose of redirecting people to go off-platform. A ShowTime is restricted (18 years and older) when it shares content that is not suitable for young people, in their appropriate age category.

In a multi-guest ShowTime, the host account is responsible for content streamed in their ShowTime. Hosts must not facilitate a guests' sharing of content that violates our rules. If guests stream violative content, it will lead to closing the multi-ShowTime session and may lead to temporary ShowTime access restrictions for the host or guests.

NOT ALLOWED

• ShowTime content that violates our rules, including content shared by a guest in a multi-guest ShowTime

Search

Using the search tool can be an enriching and helpful way to discover content on the platform. When you perform a search, we seek to provide you with relevant search results. We restrict searches that use keywords or phrases that violate our rules. Content that is allowed on the platform but does not meet our recommendation eligibility may not appear as a top search result.

External Links

Links are often shared in a profile, bio, or content to connect you to additional content or to other sites. While some links may be helpful or informative, others connect to harmful content that would not be allowed on our platform. We do not allow posting links that direct people to content that violates our rules. A violation of our rules will lead to the removal of the link, a temporary restriction on re-uploading another link, or an account suspension or ban. If a link connects to content that would qualify as a severe violation of our rules, we may also ban the account with penalty.

Comments and Direct Messages

Comments and direct messages on Pr3ss3D allow you to interact with videos or directly with others and provide an integral interactive experience to the platform. Direct messages are only available to subscribers who have some connected relationship on the Platform to each other (e.g. – They are members of the subscribers MyCommunity, or has a MyCommunity request, or have followed the Content Creators Creator Tag, etc…)

A violation of our rules will lead to restricted visibility or the removal of comments, or a restriction on sending direct messages, and may lead to an account ban if there is a severe violation.

Monetization

You must have a Content Creator subscription to monetize your content.

A violation of our rules may result in a temporary restriction of monetization features, and repeated violations may lead to warnings or sanctions, including a permanent restriction or an account ban with penalty.

All commercial content on Pr3ss3D must be disclosed with the “Commercial” tag and must comply with the relevant subscription policy, such as Pr3ss3D Shoppe Policies. If we become aware of marketing content that has not been clearly disclosed, we will apply the “Commercial” tag. Commercial content includes promoting your own brand, products, or services, or exchanging something of value between creators, a third party and creator (such as Branded Content), a creator and business (such as e-commerce), or a creator and Pr3ss3D.

Enforcement

Public Interest Exceptions

We recognize that some content that would otherwise violate our rules may be in the public interest to view. Public interest refers to topics that inform, inspire, or educate the community and enhance deliberation about matters of broad collective significance. We may allow content to remain on Pr3ss3D under one of these public interest exceptions:

• Documentary

• Educational

• Medical and Scientific

• Counter speech

• Satirical

• Artistic

• Journalistic

Our approach to content moderation uses the same criteria, no matter who creates it. The most important factor we consider in looking at public interest exceptions is context, such as whether the content is raising awareness or criticizing harmful behaviors. To help us in our review, we encourage you to clearly show context using features such as captions, voice over, or stickers.

We may add extra safety measures to some content allowed under a public interest exception, such as a "show me” screen, or warning information. We do not provide exceptions for public interest content if it may cause extreme harm, such as showing a suicide or sexual abuse of a young person.

Detection and Reporting

We aim to remove content or accounts that violate our rules before they are viewed or shared. Content first goes through an automated review process. If content is identified as a potential violation, it will be automatically removed or flagged for additional review by our moderators. Additional review will occur if content gains popularity or has been reported.

Although we work hard to enforce our guidelines, we cannot guarantee that all content shared complies with our guidelines or Terms of Service. Suspected violations can be reported in-app and on our website. If you discover content or accounts that may violate our rules, please let us know so we can review it and take any appropriate action.

Reporting Feature Abuse

We understand that violations that fall through our systems will often incur “Mass Reporting”. However, the coordinated efforts by any group of subscribers to “Mass Report” (generate high number of violation reports in a short amount of time), in order to game the reporting system to have Pr3ss3D remove or put sanctions on Subscribers and\or Content Creators for the purpose of satisfying ulterior motives (e.g. - business or industry sabotage, general dislike of content or creator, or subscriber, or social or political reasons) will not be tolerated and considered a violation of our rules.

The reporting feature is there to ensure the safety, well-being of everyone and the enjoyability of the Platform as a whole. Pr3ss3D makes everyone who has anything to report for any and all reasons submit that report with a minimum twenty-five (25) word description of the problem, issue or violation. So coordinated efforts to abuse the reporting feature can be more easily detected.

Abusing the reporting feature may lead to sanctions, including but not limited to warnings, disablement of the reporting feature, account suspension or ban with penalty.

Notice and Appeals

In keeping with our commitment to ensuring procedural fairness, we seek to provide notifications if you have violated our rules. If you have posted content that we do not allow, we will notify you and share the reason for the removal. If your account has been banned because of a violation, you will receive a banner notification when you next open the app, informing you of this account change.

If your account was banned, or your content was violated, or otherwise restricted, and you believe it was an error, then you can appeal the decision. You can view the status of your appeal in the in-app Safety Center, or via your email or mobile device on file.
