Community Guidelines

At Sociably, our mission is to create a positive and engaging platform where users can connect, share, and express themselves freely and safely. To maintain a welcoming environment for everyone, we have established the following Community Guidelines. These rules help us ensure that all interactions on Sociably are respectful, safe, and constructive.

These guidelines are designed to uphold users' privacy, safety, and the overall positive atmosphere of our community. While this is our initial set of guidelines, we are committed to updating and refining them as we grow and better understand our users' needs.

Violent & Hateful Entities: Affiliating with or promoting activities of violent and hateful entities is not permitted on Sociably.

Child Safety: We have zero tolerance for any form of child sexual exploitation. Media depicting physical child abuse is strictly removed to prevent the normalization of violence against children.

Perpetrators of Violent Attacks: Accounts belonging to individuals who commit terrorist, violent extremist, or mass violent attacks will be removed, along with any content that disseminates their manifestos or related materials.
