The standard is simple.
A few core principles keep RIVET communities a positive place for everyone.
Disagreement is fine. Harassment isn't.
No threats, stalking, doxxing, targeted abuse, or intimidation.
No impersonation, scams, fake accounts, or deceptive behavior.
Don't manipulate votes, RSVPs, polls, events, or participation.
No spam, disruptive behavior, or attempts to derail community features.
A place for creators and fans.
RIVET exists to bring creators and communities closer together. Our platform is built on respect, positivity, and shared opportunity. These guidelines apply to all community spaces on RIVET, including posts, events, and any other interactive features.
By using RIVET, you agree to follow these guidelines and to help create a welcoming experience for everyone.
Treat people with respect.
Harassment, bullying, threats, degrading attacks, or repeated unwanted targeting are not allowed. Healthy discussion and different opinions are welcome, but it's never okay to be abusive or intimidating.
Everyone belongs here.
RIVET does not tolerate hate, discrimination, or attacks based on race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, age, or any other protected characteristic.
Our communities should be inclusive, supportive, and welcoming to all.
Keep personal information private.
Do not post or attempt to expose private information about anyone, including addresses, phone numbers, private email addresses, passwords, or any identifying information they haven't chosen to share.
Respect people's privacy — especially creators, who deserve to feel safe.

Be who you say you are.
Do not impersonate creators, managers, RIVET staff, or other members. Do not run fake accounts, misrepresent your role in a community, or use deceptive names and avatars to mislead people.
Keep the feed clean.
No spam, mass unsolicited promotion, repetitive posting, engagement farming, or link schemes. Do not manipulate votes, RSVPs, or any other community feature through duplicate accounts or coordinated activity.
Play events fairly.
Community events, battles, and competitions should be fair. Do not cheat, collude, sabotage other participants, or misuse RSVP and voting features to influence outcomes.
Respect the creator's space.
Creators set the tone of their own communities and may set additional rules. Respect their boundaries around contact, personal questions, gifts, and off-platform interaction.
Persistent unwanted contact with a creator is a violation of these guidelines.
Keep it lawful.
Do not use RIVET to organise, promote, or carry out illegal activity, fraud, or anything that puts people at real-world risk. Content that encourages self-harm or violence is not permitted.
Keep communities safe for all ages.
Sexually explicit material, graphic violence, and shock content are not allowed in RIVET community spaces. Content involving minors in any sexualised context is reported and permanently banned.
How we handle violations.
Depending on severity and history, RIVET may remove content, issue a warning, restrict features, remove community membership, or suspend an account. Serious violations can result in immediate removal.
Creators and their managers may also moderate their own community spaces.
If we get it wrong.
If you believe an enforcement action was a mistake, contact RIVET Support with the details. We review appeals and will restore access where the decision was incorrect.
Every community has its own house rules.
Individual creator communities may add their own rules on their About tab — things like chat etiquette, spoilers, or event conduct. Those rules sit on top of these guidelines, never below them.
We build this together.
RIVET will keep improving these guidelines as our communities grow. We commit to being clear about the rules, consistent in how we apply them, and honest when we get something wrong.
Thank you for helping keep RIVET a place creators and fans want to be.
