What to do about prohibited or dangerous content?

Identify the particular work, comment or profile when reporting a violation. Use Report in the ⋯ menu, or trust@darebay.com for urgent or illegal content. Acceptable-use rules and responses to violations are published in the platform terms.

Prohibited categories ​

Report these kinds of content:

• Illegal content under the jurisdiction of the person reporting it and under DareBay's own jurisdictions: CSAM, intimate material shared without consent, incitement to specific violence, blatant fraud and the like.
• Threats of violence against real people or groups.
• Hate speech against protected categories.
• Harassment of specific participants, organizers or viewers.
• Doxxing: publishing private personal data without consent.

View fraud is not on this list - a separate system catches it, and the rules for entering work are in Submit your work.

How to report ​

• On a submission or a comment: the ⋯ menu has Report.
• On an account: the Report link on the profile.
• Anything urgent or illegal that has to come down immediately: write to trust@darebay.com with a link and a short description.

What happens next ​

A report helps locate the object and investigate a violation. Responses and the dispute process are described in the terms. Submitting a report does not establish a violation or promise a particular response time.

For contest money, include the funding mode and reward status. Wallet-backed funding has a deposited budget; organizer-direct payment does not place a pool with the platform. Do not assume a violation decision automatically refunds any amount.

Legally ​

Send rights-holder notices and legal questions to legal@darebay.com. Include the link and basis; copyright-notice requirements are described in the terms of use.

Send a link without redistributing the material ​

A report needs the work, comment or profile address, a short description and the time you observed it. Add a timestamp for a specific video segment. Do not repost dangerous material in a chat as evidence or add private details beyond what is necessary to locate the issue.

If the public link disappeared, include the known identifier and context. Help locate the original object; publicly accusing another participant does not replace a report.
