SaySpace Community Guidelines.

SaySpace is a fair space for every voice. These Community Guidelines explain what we expect of everyone who uses SaySpace, and what we will not allow. They apply to all content and behaviour on SaySpace, including posts, comments, profiles, messages, group spaces, and live conversations. Where these Guidelines differ from our Terms of Use, the Terms of Use govern.

1. Be respectful

Treat other people the way you’d want to be treated. Disagree without insult. Critique ideas, not identities. Assume good faith where you can.

2. No harassment

No targeted harassment, bullying, brigading, or pile-ons. This includes following someone across SaySpace to harass them, dogpiling on individuals, or coordinating harassment campaigns.

3. No hate or abuse

No hate speech, slurs, or content that dehumanises people based on race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, caste, sex, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, or serious disease. No abusive content directed at individuals.

4. No threats or violence

No threats of violence. No content that promotes, glorifies, or incites violence against a person, group, or property. Credible threats are reported to the relevant authorities where required by law.

5. No spam, scams, or manipulation

No spam, mass posting, mass-following, fake engagement, vote manipulation, or coordinated inauthentic behaviour. No scams, phishing, pyramid schemes, or deceptive promotions.

6. No impersonation

You may not impersonate another person or entity in a misleading way. Parody, satire and fan accounts are allowed where clearly labelled and not deceptive.

7. No illegal content

No content that is illegal in your jurisdiction or in the UK, including content that infringes intellectual property rights, breaches privacy, or facilitates illegal activity.

8. Child safety

No sexual content involving minors, no content that sexualises minors, and no content that grooms, exploits, or endangers children. We will report illegal child sexual abuse material to relevant authorities where required by law.

9. No coordinated manipulation

No coordinated networks that exist to manipulate public conversation, fake popularity, suppress voices, or interfere with the integrity of SaySpace.

10. No deceptive engagement

No undisclosed paid promotion where disclosure is required by law. No misleading thumbnails, captions or links designed to mislead viewers. No engagement bait that relies on deception.

11. Misinformation, where relevant

We do not seek to moderate every disagreement online. However, in narrow, defined categories where misinformation can cause serious real-world harm (for example, content that interferes with civic processes, content that promotes a dangerous treatment in a public health emergency, or content fabricated to incite imminent violence), we may add context, limit reach, or remove content where appropriate. Final scope to be confirmed before launch.

12. Reporting

You can report content or accounts in-app once SaySpace is live. While in development, please email [email protected] with the subject SaySpace Report.

13. Moderation and appeals

When SaySpace takes action on content or an account, we aim to explain the decision and offer a route to appeal. See SaySpace Safety & Moderation for an overview.

14. Changes

These Guidelines may change as SaySpace and the wider environment evolve. We will note material changes here.
