theWorlt Community Guidelines
Respect the theWorlt Community
We're not asking for the kind of respect reserved for nuns, the elderly and brain surgeons. We mean don't abuse the site. Every cool new community feature on theWorlt involves a certain level of trust. We trust you to be responsible and millions of users respect that trust, so please be one of them.
We Review Profiles Flagged As Inappropriate
Okay, this one is more about us than you. When a profile gets flagged as inappropriate, we review the profile to determine whether it violates our Terms of Use — flagged profiles are not automatically taken down by the system. If we remove your profile after reviewing it, you can assume that we removed it deliberately and you should take our warning notification seriously. Take a deep breath, read our Terms of Use and try to see it from our perspective. If you find other profiles on theWorlt with the same violations, please flag them so we can review them as well!
Don't Cross the Line
Here are some common-sense rules that will help you steer clear of trouble:
- theWorlt is not for pornography or sexually explicit content. If this describes your photo or video, even if it's a photo or a video of yourself, don't post it on theWorlt. Also, be advised that we work closely with law enforcement and we report child exploitation. Please read our Safety Tips and stay safe on theWorlt.
- Don't post materials showing things like animal abuse, drug abuse or bomb making.
- Graphic or gratuitous violence is not allowed. If your materials show someone getting hurt, attacked or humiliated, don't post it.
- theWorlt is not a shock site. Don't post gory materials of accidents, dead bodies or similar things.
- Respect copyright. Only upload materials that you made or that you are authorised to use. This means don't upload materials you didn't make, or use content in your videos to which someone else owns the copyright, such as music tracks, snippets of copyrighted programmes or videos made by other users, without the requisite authorisations. Read our Copyright Tips for more information.
- We encourage free speech and defend everyone's right to express unpopular points of view. But we do not permit hate speech (speech which attacks or demeans a group based on race or ethnic origin, religion, disability, gender, age, veteran status and sexual orientation/gender identity).
- There is zero tolerance of predatory behaviour, stalking, threats, harassment, invading privacy or the revealing of other members' personal information. Anyone caught doing these things may be permanently banned from theWorlt.
- Everyone hates spam. Do not create misleading descriptions, tags, titles or thumbnails in order to increase views. It's not OK to post large amounts of untargeted, unwanted or repetitive content, including comments and private messages.
Please take these rules seriously and take them to heart. Don't try to look for loopholes or try to lawyer your way around them—just understand them and try to respect the spirit in which they were created. Violations of the Terms of Use may result in a warning notification or termination of your account. If your account is terminated you are prohibited from creating any new accounts.
theWorlt is for the Community
Remember that this is your community! Each and every user of theWorlt makes the site what it is, so don't be afraid to dig in and get involved!
- Have fun with the site. There's a lot here to see, and lots of people making amazing stuff—one of them might be you! Equipment's getting cheaper and easier to use all the time, so dive in and enjoy.
- Let people know what you think. Feedbacks and news are part of the experience, and when done with respect, can be a great way to make friends, share stories and make your time on theWorlt more fulfilling. So leave comments, write messages, rate profiles, make your own clubs and news, enter contests of interest—there's a lot going on and a lot of ways to participate here.
- You may not like everything you see. Some of the content here may offend you — if you find that it violates our Terms of Use, then click "Abuse" on each page which present users’ activities. If it doesn't, then consider just clicking on something else—why waste time watching videos you don't like?
That's it! Thanks for reading!
