This code explains:
- How moderators should use moderation tools
- What moderator abuse is prohibited
- How privacy and safety issues should be handled

- How serious safety issues should be escalated
- Why moderator roles may be limited or removed
3. Moderator Role Availability
Moderator, admin, owner, co-host, chat moderator, livestream moderator, comment moderator, community moderator, and related roles may not be available to every account, community, creator, country, device, or feature.
Playflick may add, remove, restrict, redesign, suspend, or discontinue moderator tools and roles at any time.
4. Moderator Responsibilities
Moderators should use moderation tools responsibly, fairly, and in good faith.
Moderators should:
- Apply community rules consistently where possible
- Follow Playflick policies
- Protect users from harassment, scams, and abuse
- Escalate serious safety concerns where appropriate
- Respect user privacy
- Avoid misleading users about their authority
- Avoid using moderation tools for personal revenge or unfair advantage
5. Fair Use of Moderation Tools
Moderation tools should be used to support community safety and rule compliance.
Tools may include:
- Removing posts or comments
- Muting users
- Banning users from communities or chats
- Approving or rejecting posts
- Pinning posts or comments
- Filtering words, links, or media
- Reporting serious violations to Playflick
- Managing livestream or watch-party chat
6. Moderator Abuse Is Prohibited
Moderators must not misuse their role or tools.
Moderator abuse may include:
- Removing content for personal revenge
- Banning users because of personal disagreement unrelated to rules
- Threatening users with moderation action
- Demanding money, gifts, favours, or promotion in exchange for moderation decisions
- Using moderation tools to silence safety reports
- Using moderation tools to protect scams or harassment
- Sharing private moderation information without permission
- Using moderation status to impersonate Playflick staff
7. No Impersonation of Playflick Staff
Community moderators are not Playflick employees, agents, legal representatives, safety officers, payment officers, verification reviewers, or official support agents unless Playflick clearly states otherwise.
Moderators must not falsely claim to be Playflick staff or claim they can guarantee:
- Verification
- Monetisation approval
- Account recovery
- Ban removal
- Payout release
- Legal decisions
- Policy exceptions
8. Conflicts of Interest
Moderators should avoid using moderation tools where personal, business, financial, romantic, competitive, or other conflicts of interest could affect fairness.
Conflicts may include:
- Moderating disputes involving friends or family
- Moderating competitors unfairly
- Accepting payment for favourable treatment
- Protecting a business partner from fair moderation
- Using moderation access to promote personal content
- Targeting critics or reviewers unfairly
9. Privacy and Confidentiality
Moderators may see information related to community activity, reports, moderation decisions, member behaviour, or internal community discussions.
Moderators must not misuse or disclose private information.
Moderators must not:
- Dox users
- Share private messages without permission where required
- Expose reporter identities where confidential
- Share moderation logs publicly where inappropriate
- Use member information for harassment, spam, or off-platform targeting
- Collect unnecessary personal information from members
10. Handling Reports
Moderators should handle reports seriously and fairly where community tools allow.
Reports may involve:
- Harassment
- Threats
- Spam
- Scams
- Impersonation
- Private information
- Rights violations
- Child-safety concerns
- Self-harm or immediate danger concerns
Serious safety issues should be escalated to Playflick or emergency services where appropriate.
11. Child Safety Responsibilities
Moderators must take child-safety concerns seriously.
Moderators must not:
- Ignore grooming concerns
- Hide sexual comments about minors
- Protect users who target children
- Move child-safety reports into private off-platform spaces to avoid review
- Collect children’s private information unnecessarily
- Use moderation access to contact children unsafely
Serious child-safety concerns may result in immediate escalation, account action, evidence preservation, and reporting where appropriate or required.
12. Emergency and Immediate Danger
If a moderator becomes aware of an immediate threat to life, serious violence, imminent self-harm, child exploitation, or another emergency, they should contact emergency services or local law enforcement first where appropriate.
Moderators may also report the issue to Playflick through official support channels.
13. Harassment and Retaliation
Moderators must not harass, threaten, shame, intimidate, stalk, or retaliate against users.
Retaliation may include:
- Banning users for making good-faith reports
- Publicly shaming users who appeal moderation decisions
- Encouraging others to attack a user
- Using moderator access to find personal information
- Targeting users across other communities
- Threatening users with off-platform consequences
14. Moderation Transparency
Where practical, communities should make rules clear so members understand what behaviour is allowed.
Moderators are not required to provide detailed explanations for every action, but moderation should not be deliberately confusing, deceptive, discriminatory, or abusive.
15. Appeals and Review Requests
Communities may provide appeal or review processes where features are available.
Moderators should not retaliate against users who respectfully ask for review of a moderation decision.
Playflick may separately review certain decisions where platform-level policies or appeals apply.
16. Use of Automation
Moderators may use approved filters, moderation queues, word filters, link filters, spam tools, or automated moderation tools where available.
Moderators must not use automation to:
- Mass-ban users unfairly
- Suppress safety reports
- Spam members
- Manipulate engagement
- Evade Playflick moderation
- Collect private information unlawfully
- Target users based on protected or vulnerable characteristics
17. Paid or Sponsored Moderation
If moderators are paid, sponsored, or otherwise compensated by a creator, brand, community owner, business, or third party, they should still follow Playflick policies and use moderation tools fairly.
Paid moderators must not hide scams, unsafe commercial activity, undisclosed sponsorships, fake reviews, child-safety concerns, or policy violations because of payment or pressure.
18. Moderator Account Security
Moderators should protect their accounts because moderator access may affect community safety.
Moderators should:
- Use strong passwords
- Use two-factor authentication where available
- Avoid sharing account access
- Review suspicious login alerts
- Report account compromise promptly
- Remove suspicious integrations or API access where applicable
19. Moderator Role Removal
Community owners or Playflick may remove, limit, suspend, or change moderator roles where appropriate.
Reasons may include:
- Moderator abuse
- Account compromise
- Harassment or retaliation
- Privacy violations
- Child-safety concerns
- Scams, fraud, or payment abuse
