Data Protection and Removal Procedures

This platform respects the freedom of speech of its users, so we cannot remove content simply because it is unpopular or critical or rude; however, there are some legal basis for removal regarding personal privacy, intellectual property, and safety.

We don't define new rules here, this is a summary of existing practices to give a guide about content which is eligible for removal and about the standardized process for submitting a request.


What We Remove and what can get removed

We evaluate requests based on the following categories.

Personal Data (Doxxing)

Posting publicly available information (such as real names or public social media profiles) is generally allowed. However, we remove specific types of data:

Copyright Infringement (DMCA)

You may request the removal of copyrighted material you own if the use is unauthorized.

We recognize fair use for transformative works, commentary, criticism, comedy, or reporting. Given the non-commercial nature of the site and its userbase, shared material never causes measurable market harm. However, clear infringements without transformative purpose are removed.

False claims of infringement can result in liability for damages under 17 U.S.C. §512(f).

Non-Consensual Intimate Imagery (Take It Down Act / TIDA)

Recent legislation makes it possible to request the removal of computer-generated or non-consensually taken/shared intimate visual depictions. This applies to any media containing nudity or sexual acts where the subject did not authorize the creation and distribution of it.



Submission Requirements (How to Request)

To ensure your request is processed efficiently, all submissions must include the following elements. Missing information may delay or result in the rejection of your request.

Submission Method:

Send your request via email (see Contact). Ensure the subject line clearly states the category (e.g., "Takedown Request: Personal Data" or "DMCA Notice").
