Usage and Content Policy

Be Real

Ringr profiles are intended to represent real people in a local area. Ringr member profiles must be honest and authentic.

Be Honest: Intentions

All members should be open about who they are, their intentions, and their affiliations. All Player Request descriptions should be accurate, so members can make informed decisions about their participation. See Player Request Policy for more information

Be Yourself: Fake Accounts & Impersonation

Creating fake accounts, malicious accounts, or accounts meant to impersonate another person, is prohibited on Ringr.

Be Respectful

Respecting people's time, attention, personal choices, and personal boundaries is essential to creating safe and trusting communities. Be respectful in interactions with people and in content posted on the platform. Ringr monitors and restricts behaviors that are dishonest, undermine the integrity of the platform, violate personal boundaries, or serve to intentionally upset people.

Message Respectfully: Don't Spam

Content sent to a member that is irrelevant, impersonal, unsolicited, promotional, or repetitive is spam.

Set Appropriate Expectations and Honor Them: Don't Tamper with Player Requests

Converting or changing Player Requests, so that they no longer align with the expectations and purpose set by the member, is misleading and not allowed. See Player Request Policy for more information

The intentions of the Player Request should remain consistent with member expectations as set in the Player Request's information. See Player Request Policy for more information

Sexual Content and Nudity

Pornography is not allowed on Ringr. Publicly shared photos must be appropriate for general audiences. Nude or sexual photos are not allowed on your profile.

Sex Solicitation and Prostitution

Ringr prohibits individuals who use Ringr to proposition for sex, or to promote or engage in prostitution.

Shocking, Disturbing, and Violent Content

Gratuitously graphic, disgusting, obscene, or violent content is prohibited. We don't allow content posted to upset, shock, or disturb a Ringr community or its members.

Child Exploitation

Ringr has a zero tolerance policy regarding child nudity of any kind, pornography, or anything Ringr HQ believes exploits, sexualizes, or fetishizes minors. Such content will be removed from the platform and the uploader will be banned. Ringr reports all child pornography to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC).

Ask for Permission: Consent

Ringr defines consent as welcomed communications and actions to engage with a member. Engaging with anyone in a non-consensual way is strictly prohibited. If ever in doubt, ask permission.

Respect Privacy: Don't Post Other People's Private Information

Posting private information of other members without their explicit consent is prohibited.

Members and organizers should always be mindful of privacy and use discretion when sharing any private content that belongs to themselves or to other members. For example, phone numbers, social security numbers, addresses, financial information, passwords, and government identification are considered private information.

Be Kind

Bullying, harassment, exploitation, and acts of hate undermine community building in safe spaces where people can trust one another. Building real relationships requires us to be more compassionate and kinder towards one another. Ringr enforces against behaviors that are threatening, intentionally malicious, or personally harmful--physically, emotionally, or mentally.

Be Compassionate: Don't Harass, Bully or Shame

Harassment and bullying are not allowed on Ringr. Ringr will honor requests to remove content that publicly shames or degrades a private individual.

Members should first contact the uploader to request that content be removed.

Harassment is persistent or non-consensual contact from another member. Bullying is the intentional posting of mean content for the purpose of hurting or embarrassing another.

Ringr will honor requests to remove nude, lewd or shaming photos if the subject of that content reports it. Content targeting a public figure, organization, or anyone who has gained news attention, is not subject to these policies.

Act with Integrity: Do Not Manipulate or Exploit

Any attempt to use someone's insecurities or vulnerabilities for personal gain is considered manipulation or exploitation and is prohibited.

Hate and Supremacy

Hate speech, supremacy, or behavior that incites hate or violence against individuals or groups of people based on who they are or their beliefs, is prohibited.

Be Safe

All members should take ownership over their personal safety and should never put themselves or others in danger. We expect all members to be mindful of local laws when engaging in the real-world with other members. Where appropriate, members should also set guidelines for their events to ensure their members are participating safely.

No Threats, Violence, or Personal Endangerment

Using Ringr to promote, facilitate, or organize violent, criminal, or non-consensual actions that endanger anyone, physically, mentally, or emotionally, is prohibited.

Ringr reserves the right to remove credible explicit and implicit threats of violence or aggression and revoke the membership of the user who made them. Examples of prohibited implicit threats include, “The next time I see you, you’ll be sorry.” and “You better watch your back.”

Harmful Misinformation

The dissemination or promotion of misinformation is prohibited. This includes claims that have been scientifically disproven and that may pose a public or personal health risk.

Self-Injury

Ringr does not allow any content that encourages or glorifies self-injury or encourages others to harm themselves.

Copyright and IP

Intellectual Property

We respect the intellectual property rights of others. Posting content that violates another party's intellectual property rights is prohibited.

When provided with the requisite information, Ringr will remove or disable access to material that infringes on the intellectual property rights of others or remove accounts of those who may be repeat infringers.
