Introduction

In our shared digital space, we’re uplifting a future where inspiration and independence flourish. Zora is a community building towards a truly open, collaborative and creative Internet. Here, your imagination takes center stage. Join us in this journey of creation and connection, where each member contributes to a diverse and expansive universe of ideas. Let's unite in making Zora a realm of pure, shared creativity.

To foster a thriving community, we are guided by two critical principles that we strive to balance:

First, we believe creators should have the freedom to use our platform to express themselves and their creativity and to test artistic boundaries in the web3 space with as few limitations as possible.

Second, we believe creators and our community should be safe from harm, including harassment, discrimination, threats of violence, doxxing, and IP theft or infringement.

We aim to create an inclusive and supportive space that promotes creativity and protects the rights and safety of every member of our community. These guidelines set forth a shared set of standards and expectations for all participants, where we can collectively make the widest range of content available while minimizing potential harm or loss.

Actions we take

While Zora cannot delete or remove content created onchain, we employ various mechanisms to enforce our policies and community guidelines on the Zora platform. This includes limiting discoverability of or temporarily or permanently blocking and removing access to mint pages on Zora. Repeated violations may result in blocking an infringer’s account (e.g. wallet address) from the Zora platform completely.

We do our best to ensure a fair outcome for all; however, we reserve the right to enforce or not enforce these guidelines at our sole discretion, mainly to safeguard our services, infrastructure, and community.
