Image Share Rules
No nudity or sexually explicit content.
We don't want to create a bad experience for someone that might stumble across explicit images, nor is it in our company ethos to support explicit content, so some lascivious or sexualized posts are not allowed. This may include content containing: the gratuitous or explicit display of breasts, butts, and sexual organs intended to stimulate erotic feelings full or partial nudity any depiction of sexual activity, explicit or implied (drawings, print, animated, human, or otherwise) any image taken of or from someone without their knowledge or consent for the purpose of sexualization solicitation (the uninvited act of directly requesting sexual content from another person, or selling/offering explicit content and/or adult services) Content that might be taken down may includes: see-thru clothing, exposed or clearly defined genitalia, some images of female nipples/areolas, spread eagle poses, butts in thongs or partially exposed buttocks, close-ups, upskirts, strip teases, cam shows, sexual fluids, private photos from a social media page, or linking to sexually explicit content. Sexually explicit comments that don't include images may also be removed. Artistic, scientific or educational nude images shared with educational context may be okay here. We donโt try to define art or judge the artistic merit of particular content. Instead, we focus on context and intent, as well as what might make content too explicit for the general community. Any content found to be sexualizing and exploiting minors will be removed and, if necessary, reported to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC). This applies to photos, videos, animated imagery, descriptions and sexual jokes concerning children.
No hate speech, abuse, or harassment.
Apricamera is open to anyone, so we take down hate speech, divisive content, and abusive content when we see it. This may include content containing: attacks on people based on their race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, sex, gender, sexual orientation, age, disability or medical condition glorification or endorsement of hateful content or ideologies content depicting or advocating discrimination of a group especially so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another harassment in the forms of witch hunting, sexual harassment, repetitive unwanted or obsessive attention, aggressive intimidation, suicide requests or threats, or inciting the community into support or disdain for a person, organization or community content that attacks, bullies, or harrasses non-public people any image taken of or from someone without their knowledge or consent for the purpose of harassment, abuse, or revenge Posts that might be taken down may include: brigading, slurs, negative stereotypes, hate-based threats, hate speech, glorification of abuse, malicious personal attacks on non-public individuals, doxxing, slander, ad-hominem attacks directed at another individual, โfat people hate,โ misogyny, visual content intended to cause medical harm (i.e. induce seizures), photos taken of a non-public figure without their knowledge to make fun of them, sending unsolicited sexual imagery via messages. It's important to keep in mind that not everything that's mean or insulting is hate speech. That said, the line between unintentional and serious attacks is sometimes difficult to identify, so we're likely to err on the side of taking abusive content down.
No content that condones illegal or violent activity.
Content depicting, condoning, making light of, or advocating illegal activity or violence will not be tolerated. This may include content containing: child abuse and exploitation (includes photo, video, print, artwork) rape and domestic abuse sales of illegal substances or products requiring permits and/or licenses including pharmaceuticals, narcotics, pets, or firearms fraudulent or deceptive content intended to spread false information or exploit false impersonation brutal fights graphic injuries depictions of human death graphic violence You may not post content that is intended to incite, condone, or advocate for others to commit violence, mocks victims of violence, or includes a direct and specific threat of violence to others.
No gore or shock content.
Gore may include the depiction of vivid and realistic acts of violence and brutality. Don't post gore just to be shocking. Don't showcase the mutilation or torture of human beings, animals, or their remains. Donโt post content intended to disgust or shock the community. This may include content containing: showcasing animal abuse excretion of bodily fluids intended to disgust dissection of animals for shock
No posting personal information.
To protect the safety of private individuals, we don't allow anything that reveals other people's personally identifiable information. This includes, but is not limited to, phone numbers, home addresses, employment information, email addresses, full names with photos, and personal social media accounts of non-public figures without the consent of the original party.
No spam or prohibited behavior.
We value authentic and interesting content, so we do not welcome: Spam (clickbait, affiliate linking, rapid-fire posting, unapproved commercial advertising for dubious products and services) Entertainment spoilers for the purpose of trolling Scripts or bots that act maliciously or non-transparently Engaging in vote manipulation (using multiple accounts, voting services, or any other software to increase or decrease vote scores) Doing anything that interferes with normal use of Imgur Repeatedly creating multiple accounts to evade punishment or avoid restrictions
