Commercial and Paid Content Policy
We endeavor to foster an environment where users can share their Content and discuss their on chain actions in a transparent and verifiable manner. As part of this, we require certain disclosures and prohibit certain Content under this Commercial and Paid Content Policy (“Policy”) (in addition to the restrictions and prohibitions under the Terms). In particular, we require disclosure, prohibit, and restrict certain types of “Paid Content” or Content where the user has some ”Personal Interest” (as defined below) in the subject of the Content.
This Policy is part of the Terms and any failure to abide by the rules and prohibitions of this Policy constitutes a violation under the Terms and will result in the suspension or termination of your account. These rules, restrictions, and prohibitions supplement the Terms and do not limit the Terms. In the event of any ambiguity or conflict between this Policy and the Terms, the most user and Content restrictive terms apply. Any capitalized terms not otherwise defined have the same meaning as in the Terms.
“Paid Content” is Content that features or endorses Digital Assets, products, services, or opportunities where (a) the user receives the Digital Asset, product, service, or opportunity as a gift, (b) the user receives compensation from a third-party for promoting these Digital Assets, products, services or opportunities, either through monetary payments or in-kind contributions (such as receiving Digital Assets), (c) the Digital Asset, products, services or opportunities generate a commission for the user posting the Content from sales (for example, through affiliated links or discount codes), or (d) the user has a commercial agreement involving these Digital Assets, products or services, such as a role as a brand ambassador. To be clear, User Content may be Paid Content whether it is compensated directly or indirectly from any party, including individuals, companies (or other entities), brands, decentralized autonomous organizations (each, a “DAO”) or other associations.
“Personal Interest” is where a user has some intention to use the Content for commercial purposes or gains, or an interest (directly or indirectly) in the subject of Content, including an interest by virtue of ownership of a company that issues a Digital Asset which is discussed in the User Content or similar interest.
Below, we describe various rules, restrictions and prohibitions on Paid Content and Content where the user has a Personal Interest. At times, we provide examples of these restrictions and prohibitions. These examples are not comprehensive lists nor limit the scope of the prohibitions of restrictions that may apply to Content under this Policy, the Terms or applicable law. Whenever we use the word “including” or similar, this means “including, but not limited to.”
As always, users must also comply with all Applicable Law, including by ensuring that you provide all necessary disclosures are made to users, such as any disclosures needed to indicate the commercial nature of the Paid Content, or payment received in connection with posting the Content. For Paid Content in particular, the user must comply with any Applicable Law pertaining to advertising or investment and, if applicable, FTC regulations such as the FTC’s Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising.
