Ownership and permission
Users may upload text, links, profile details, images, audio, documents, and videos only when they own the content or have valid permission to use it. Uploading does not transfer ownership to Arowet; it gives Arowet only the limited license needed to host, process, display, distribute, moderate, and provide the service.
Prohibited content
- Child sexual abuse or exploitation material, or content that sexualizes, exploits, or appears to sexualize a minor.
- Sexual or adult content, including non-consensual intimate content.
- Copyright or trademark infringement, pirated movies, music, software, courses, or documents.
- Impersonation, fraud, scams, deceptive offers, or misleading claims.
- Hate speech, threats, harassment, or promotion of violence.
- Doxxing or publication of private personal information without authorization.
- Illegal products, unlawful gambling, drugs, weapons, or instructions to commit a crime.
- Malware, phishing, spam, dangerous files, or links designed to steal credentials or money.
- Stolen, deepfake, or manipulated content used to deceive, harass, exploit, or harm someone.
Private and paid content is still moderated
Private content means access-restricted content only. It must never be used as a label for unmoderated, illegal, sexual, or otherwise prohibited material. Arowet retains the right to review private and paid content for safety, payment compliance, fraud prevention, and legal reasons.
Creators must not promise that screenshots or screen recording can be completely prevented. Practical protections may include authorization checks, buyer-specific watermarks, short-lived signed URLs, download limits, access logs, and rate limiting.
Moderation workflow
Content may move through these statuses: Draft, Processing, Under review, Approved, Rejected, Restricted, Removed, and Appealed. New creators and paid uploads should be reviewed before publication.
Automated detection can help prioritize work, but it must not be the final authority for unclear cases. Human review and an appeal process are required where appropriate.
Reports and urgent safety

- Sexual or child-safety content.

Enforcement and appeals
Arowet may restrict, remove, or preserve content, suspend accounts, or withhold payouts when necessary. Appeals should explain why the decision was mistaken and include relevant ownership, consent, or context evidence. Repeated or severe violations may lead to termination.
