Community Guidelines

Goal: A safe, honest community where people can share real good.

1. Respect: No bullying, harassment, intimidation, or targeted cruelty.

2. No Hate: No hate speech, slurs, or degrading content.

3. No Doxxing / Personal Info: Do not share last names (especially for minors), school names, addresses, phone numbers, emails, exact locations, or anyone’s private info.

4. Zero Tolerance: Sexual Content Involving Minors: Immediate removal + account action.

5. Self-Harm: No content that promotes self-harm. If a post suggests imminent risk, we may restrict it and provide crisis resources.

6. No Fraud / Vote Manipulation: No bots, fake accounts, coercion, bribery, vote-buying, or harassment- based campaigning.

7. Keep Sparks Truthful: Don’t manufacture stories. Don’t misrepresent your actions or results.

8. Don’t Steal Content: Only share what you own or have permission to share.

9. Enforcement: We may remove content, limit visibility, disable voting on a Spark, suspend participation, or ban users to protect safety and fairness.

10. Reporting: Every public Spark should include a Report option. Users can report bullying, hate, doxxing, self-harm concerns, sexual exploitation, fraud, or copyright issues.
