Acceptable Use and Community Rules

Rules for safe, lawful, respectful use of Vibeler, creator Stages, communities, newsletters, and APIs.

1. Draft status and purpose

This Acceptable Use Policy is a practical operating draft and must be reviewed by a qualified Canadian lawyer before launch. It applies to all Vibeler users, including creators, audience members, subscribers, buyers, commenters, reviewers, API users, and visitors.

2. Prohibited content and conduct

• Illegal content, instructions, products, services, events, or transactions.
• Child sexual abuse material, sexual exploitation, grooming, or content that endangers minors.
• Harassment, threats, stalking, doxxing, non-consensual intimate imagery, extortion, or coordinated abuse.
• Hate, dehumanizing abuse, or incitement of violence against protected or vulnerable groups.
• Fraud, scams, impersonation, phishing, deceptive fundraising, pyramid schemes, fake reviews, or misleading commercial claims.
• Malware, credential theft, scraping, spam, address harvesting, bot activity, evasion of rate limits, or attacks on Vibeler or third-party systems.
• Content or commerce that infringes copyright, trademarks, privacy rights, publicity/personality rights, moral rights, contractual rights, or other third-party rights.
• Adult, graphic, violent, regulated, or high-risk content where Vibeler has not expressly enabled and reviewed that use case.
• Misuse of payment, payout, subscription, coupon, refund, chargeback, or entitlement systems.

3. Creator responsibilities

Creators must accurately describe paid plans, products, courses, events, refunds, benefits, access limits, community rules, and material restrictions before audiences pay or subscribe. Creators must also respect audience privacy, CASL obligations, and intellectual property rights.

Creators who moderate Stage communities must apply rules fairly and may not use bans, private-channel access, newsletters, or payments to harass, defraud, or retaliate unlawfully.

4. Commercial messages and newsletters

You may not use Vibeler newsletters, comments, DMs if introduced, product updates, event messages, or APIs to send spam. Commercial electronic messages must have appropriate consent, truthful sender information, accurate content, and working unsubscribe where required.

5. Enforcement

Vibeler may investigate, throttle, block, remove, hide, demonetize, suspend, ban, preserve, or report content and activity. Enforcement can apply to individual content, channels, Stages, accounts, newsletters, payments, media, API access, custom domains, and subscriptions.

We may act without prior notice where needed to protect users, creators, Vibeler, service providers, payment processors, or the public.

6. Report abuse

Report abuse through the Abuse Reporting page or by emailing [email protected]. Security reports should go to [email protected].
