These Community Guidelines set out the practical standards for what content and conduct are allowed and prohibited on Tapylapy. They supplement our Terms of Service and Safety Policy — not replace them — and should be read together.
1) Scope of These Guidelines
These Guidelines apply to all content and conduct on Tapylapy, including posts, reels, stories, comments, live streams, messages, and profiles. They come in addition to — not instead of — our Terms of Service and Safety Policy.
These Guidelines do not create any provision that conflicts with or limits the scope of the Terms of Service; they are interpretive, detailed guidance on community conduct within the authority the Terms grant Tapylapy, and the Terms of Service remain the controlling reference for any conflict relating to limitation of liability, dispute resolution, or account termination.
Violating any provision of these Guidelines is also a violation of the Terms of Service, with all the consequences described in Section 12 "Enforcement" below.
2) Nudity & Sexual Content
(A) Child Sexual Abuse & Exploitation (CSAE)
(B) Adult Nudity & Sexual Content
Tapylapy is not an adult-content platform and is not marketed as one. Given the restrictions app stores (the Apple App Store and Google Play) place on this type of content in general-audience apps, Tapylapy reserves broad and absolute discretion to remove or restrict any sexual, suggestive, or sexually-implied content, at its sole discretion, without being bound to a precise, pre-announced definition or a fixed standard, and without any promise of a permissive or unchanging standard.
Specifically and without exception, the following are prohibited:
- Intimate images or videos published without the consent of the person shown in them (non-consensual intimate imagery).
- Any sexual content involving real, identifiable people without their explicit consent to that specific use.
- Any content that could reasonably be understood or suspected to simulate or normalize sexual exploitation, regardless of the actual or claimed age of the people shown.
Not removing a particular piece of content at an earlier point in time does not waive Tapylapy's right to remove it later, and does not create any precedent obligating the platform to allow similar content in the future.
3) Hate Speech & Discrimination
Any content that attacks or demeans a person or group based on a protected characteristic is prohibited, including but not limited to: race, ethnic or national origin, religion, disability, sex, sexual orientation, gender reassignment, pregnancy or maternity, marriage or civil partnership, age, or serious disease. This content is prohibited regardless of any claim that it was intended as humor, satire, or artistic critique, and Tapylapy alone retains discretion over whether particular content falls within this prohibition.
4) Bullying & Harassment
Prohibited conduct includes:
- Repeated, unwanted contact with a person after they have clearly asked it to stop.
- Threats of any form of physical, psychological, or reputational harm.
- Degrading or demeaning content directed specifically at an identifiable person by name, image, or other identifier.
- Publishing a person's private information without their consent, with intent to harm, endanger, or embarrass them ("doxxing") — such as their home address, personal phone number, workplace, or official documents.
5) Violence & Graphic Content
Detailed rules on violent and graphic content are set out in Section 13 of our Terms of Service — Peace, Safety & Prohibited Content. In addition, under these Guidelines it is specifically prohibited to: glorify acts of violence or their perpetrators, display real graphic gore or corpses without necessity for a legitimate news or educational context, provide instructions or guidance for making or using weapons or harmful materials to hurt others, and promote, glorify, or support terrorism, violent extremism, or designated or unlawful organizations.
6) Self-Harm, Suicide & Eating Disorders
This prohibition does not extend to genuine recovery content, awareness-raising, or sharing a personal experience in a manner that does not provide imitable detail or methods, and Tapylapy retains its own discretion in classifying any given content. If you come across content suggesting someone is at imminent risk, please report it immediately using the in-app reporting tools; see the Prohibited Content section of our Safety Policy for further detail.
7) Misinformation
Publishing, sharing, or promoting content that falls within the following categories of misinformation is prohibited:
- Serious health misinformation: false claims about treatments, vaccines, or disease outbreaks that are likely to cause direct physical harm to someone who believes or acts on them.
- Civic or electoral process misinformation: false information about the time, place, or method of voting or participating in a civic or electoral process, or content intended to discourage voters from participating.
- Manipulated or synthetically-generated media (deepfakes) presented as authentic: any image, audio, or video that is altered or AI-generated and presented as genuine, unaltered footage without clear disclosure of its synthetic nature, including cases also covered by the broader deepfake and impersonation rule in our Safety Policy.
Tapylapy retains its own discretion in classifying particular content within these categories, and may choose to label content rather than remove it, depending on the nature and severity of the violation.
8) Authenticity & Anti-Manipulation
Users may not use fake accounts, bots, or coordinated networks of accounts to artificially inflate views, likes, followers, gifts, or rewards. See the Gift Rules section of our AML/KYC & Rewards Policy for additional detail on the specific prohibition against fake gift-exchange networks.
Impersonating any real person on the platform — not only broadcasters or other creators — is also prohibited, whether through an account, name, or image presented as theirs. See the broader deepfake and identity-impersonation rule in the Prohibited Content section of our Safety Policy for further detail.
9) Live-Streaming Specific Rules
- Broadcasting any illegal activity live is prohibited.
- Soliciting or encouraging viewers to pay off-platform to circumvent the official gifting system is prohibited.
- The stream's host is solely responsible for the conduct of their guests on interactive seats during their stream, consistent with the interactive live-seat provisions in our Terms of Service. This does not affect Tapylapy's liability for its own proven negligence in the design or operation of the real-time moderation tools made available to the host (such as mute or kick controls), subject to the general limitation-of-liability terms set out in the Terms of Service.
- Impersonating another broadcaster or creator on the platform is prohibited.
10) Intellectual Property
Intellectual-property claims and takedown procedures are governed entirely by Section 4 of our Terms of Service — Intellectual Property; these Guidelines do not duplicate that process.
11) Spam & Automated Content
Posting repetitive, unsolicited content; content designed to artificially bait engagement (such as "like, comment, and follow to win" with no genuine prize behind it); or advertising fake contests or giveaways that are never actually fulfilled, is prohibited.
12) Enforcement
Tapylapy alone has full and absolute discretion to interpret and apply these Guidelines, and may update them at any time. See Prohibited Content and Actions We May Take and the review-request channel in our Safety Policy for detail on possible actions.
Violating these Guidelines is also a violation of the Terms of Service, and all provisions and consequences under the Terms of Service apply accordingly, including forfeiture of any unwithdrawn coin or reward balance upon account termination for a violation classified as a "serious violation" under the definition set out in the Terms of Service, with no right for the user to claim compensation for that forfeiture. Tapylapy retains broad interpretive discretion in assessing the facts and circumstances of each case and determining whether they fall within that definition.
13) Changes to These Guidelines
We may update these Guidelines from time to time to reflect the platform's evolution, legal requirements, or safety standards. Any update takes effect as soon as it is published on this page, and your continued use of Tapylapy after publication means you accept the updated version.
