3. Use a Genuine Creator Identity

Your Winkiloo account and creator profile should represent you or an organisation you are genuinely authorised to represent.

You must not:

• impersonate another creator, company or person.
• claim ownership of a YouTube channel you do not control.
• create fake creator identities.
• misrepresent your channel, audience or experience.
• use another person's identity to obtain platform benefits.
• create duplicate accounts to manipulate platform systems.

Winkiloo may use YouTube ownership verification and other platform controls to help protect creator identities.

5. Treat Other Creators With Respect

Disagreement is allowed. Criticism is allowed. Harassment and abuse are not.

You must not:

• threaten another user.
• harass someone repeatedly.
• send abusive or degrading messages.
• target someone with unwanted repeated contact.
• encourage others to harass a creator.
• humiliate or intimidate another user.
• publish private personal information to harm someone.
• use Winkiloo to stalk or intimidate another person.

If a creator asks you to stop contacting them, respect that request.

7. Give Constructive Creator Feedback

Winkiloo feedback is intended to help creators improve.

Good feedback should be:

• specific.
• honest.
• relevant to the content.
• respectful.
• actionable where possible.
• based on your genuine opinion.

For example:

8. Do Not Manipulate Feedback Systems

You must not:

• submit meaningless feedback only to obtain Creator Credits.
• copy the same feedback across many videos.
• coordinate fake ratings.
• use multiple accounts to rate the same creator.
• offer rewards in exchange for positive feedback.
• threaten negative feedback to pressure another creator.
• submit deliberately false or malicious reviews.

Winkiloo may remove feedback, reverse related rewards or restrict accounts where feedback systems are being abused.

9. Reviews and Testimonials

Reviews and testimonials should reflect a genuine experience with Winkiloo or another supported subject of review.

You must not:

• submit fake testimonials.
• pretend to be another creator.
• submit reviews from accounts created only for review manipulation.
• offer incentives in exchange for dishonest reviews.
• submit content that you know is materially false.
• use reviews to harass another person.

Winkiloo may moderate reviews before they are publicly displayed.

11. Collaborate Fairly

Collaborations are agreements between creators. Be clear about expectations before work begins.

Where relevant, discuss:

• who is responsible for what.
• deadlines.
• content ownership.
• publishing arrangements.
• use of names, logos and images.
• revenue or payment arrangements.
• how either party can end the collaboration.

Do not misrepresent your intentions or promise benefits you cannot deliver.

For important commercial collaborations, creators should consider keeping their agreement in writing outside the platform as well.

13. No Spam

Repetitive or unsolicited promotion damages the creator community.

Spam can include:

• mass-copying the same message to many creators.
• posting irrelevant promotional material.
• repeatedly promoting the same service.
• sending excessive referral links.
• automated messaging.
• posting links unrelated to the conversation.
• repeated unwanted collaboration requests.

Promotion is acceptable only where it is relevant, permitted and not abusive.

14. Campaign and Promotion Integrity

Winkiloo campaigns are designed to give content visibility inside Winkiloo to potentially relevant creators.

Campaigns do not buy YouTube engagement.

You must not:

• create campaigns for content you are not authorised to promote.
• misrepresent what a video contains.
• use campaigns to promote illegal or harmful content.
• attempt to manipulate campaign tracking.
• use automated accounts to generate campaign activity.
• coordinate fake clicks or responses.
• attempt to recover Creator Credits through fraudulent activity.

A creator who sees promoted content remains free to decide whether to open or engage with that content.

15. Thumbnail and Title Testing

Thumbnail and Title Testing is intended to collect genuine creator preferences about content packaging.

You must not:

• vote through multiple accounts.
• coordinate predetermined voting.
• pay creators to choose a particular option.
• use bots or automation to vote.
• submit misleading test material.
• manipulate research rewards.

Participants should vote according to their genuine preference.

17. Referral and Affiliate Conduct

Referral links may be shared with creators who may genuinely benefit from Winkiloo.

You must not:

• refer yourself through another account.
• create accounts solely to obtain referral rewards.
• spam referral links.
• misrepresent Winkiloo.
• promise guaranteed results.
• hide required affiliate disclosures.
• use deceptive advertisements.
• manipulate referral attribution.

Where required, clearly disclose that you may receive Creator Credits or another benefit when someone joins through your referral link.

18. Responsible Use of AI Creator Tools

Winkiloo AI tools are intended to assist creators with analysis, ideas and decision-making.

You are responsible for reviewing AI output before using it.

Do not use Winkiloo AI tools to:

• generate unlawful content.
• impersonate another creator.
• create fraudulent claims.
• harass or threaten people.
• generate deceptive testimonials.
• create content intended to facilitate scams.
• submit unnecessary highly sensitive personal information.
• circumvent platform safety controls.

AI output may contain errors and should not be treated as guaranteed fact.

20. Threats and Violence

Do not use Winkiloo to make credible threats, encourage violence or organise harmful activity.

Content discussing violence for news, educational, documentary or analytical purposes may be treated differently from content that genuinely encourages harm.

Where Winkiloo believes there may be an immediate and credible safety risk, appropriate action may be taken in accordance with applicable law.

21. Sexual Exploitation and Abuse

Winkiloo does not permit the platform to be used for sexual exploitation, coercion or abusive sexual conduct.

Content involving the sexual exploitation of minors is strictly prohibited.

Serious cases may be reported to appropriate authorities where required or permitted by law.

22. Respect Privacy and Personal Information

Do not publish another person's sensitive or private information without a legitimate reason or appropriate permission.

This may include:

• home addresses.
• private phone numbers.
• account passwords.
• security credentials.
• private identification documents.
• private financial information.
• other information that could expose someone to harm.

Public business or creator information may be treated differently from genuinely private personal information.

24. Do Not Attack or Abuse Winkiloo Systems

Users must not interfere with the operation or security of Winkiloo.

Prohibited behaviour includes:

• attempting unauthorised access.
• probing accounts or systems for credentials.
• circumventing rate limits.
• automated scraping that violates platform rules.
• exploiting security vulnerabilities.
• introducing malware.
• disrupting services.
• attempting to bypass plan limits.
• manipulating usage counters.
• circumventing moderation controls.

If you discover a security issue, report it responsibly instead of exploiting it.

25. Protect Your Account

You are responsible for taking reasonable steps to protect your Winkiloo account.

We recommend that you:

• use a strong unique password.
• do not share authentication tokens.
• sign out from shared devices.
• review suspicious account activity.
• keep your email account secure.
• revoke third-party access if you no longer trust a connection.

Contact Winkiloo support if you believe your account has been compromised.

26. Blocking and Personal Boundaries

Winkiloo may provide blocking or connection-management tools to help creators control who can interact with them.

If another creator blocks you, do not create another account or use another person's account to continue contacting them.

Attempting to circumvent a block may be treated as harassment or platform abuse.

28. Do Not Abuse Reporting Tools

Reports should be made in good faith.

You must not:

• mass-report someone because you disagree with them.
• file knowingly false allegations.
• coordinate abusive reporting campaigns.
• use reports to intimidate competitors.
• submit repeated reports about the same resolved issue without new information.

Abuse of reporting systems may itself result in account restrictions.

30. Severe Violations

Some behaviour may justify immediate restriction or suspension without a prior warning.

This may include serious cases involving:

• fraud.
• malware or account theft.
• credible threats.
• serious harassment.
• sexual exploitation.
• system attacks.
• large-scale platform manipulation.
• illegal activity.
• attempts to evade previous enforcement.

31. Do Not Evade Enforcement

If Winkiloo restricts or suspends your account, you must not create new accounts or use another account to bypass the restriction.

Attempts to evade enforcement may result in additional account restrictions.

32. Context Matters

Winkiloo may consider context when evaluating reported content or behaviour.

For example, content discussing scams, harassment, violence or harmful behaviour for educational, critical, documentary or reporting purposes is different from content encouraging those activities.

Moderation decisions may therefore consider the purpose, presentation, severity and surrounding circumstances.

35. Changes to These Guidelines

Winkiloo may update these Community Guidelines as the platform evolves, new features are introduced or legal and safety requirements change.

The date at the top of this page shows when these Guidelines were most recently updated.

Material changes may also be communicated through the platform where appropriate.
