Content Guidelines

When contributing UGC to our Platforms, you agree that your content will:

Be Respectful and Civil: Avoid offensive language, personal attacks, harassment, discrimination, hate speech, or any content that could be considered defamatory or libelous.
Be Relevant: Keep your contributions relevant to the topic at hand and the purpose of the Platform.
Be Truthful and Accurate: Do not post false or misleading information, especially regarding health, nutrition, or weight loss. If you are sharing personal experiences, clearly state that they are your own.
Respect Privacy: Do not share personal information about yourself or others without their explicit consent.
Not Infringe Intellectual Property: Do not post content that infringes on the copyright, trademark, or other intellectual property rights of others. This includes unauthorized use of images, music, or text.
Not Promote Illegal Activity: Do not promote or endorse illegal activities, products, or substances.
Not Contain Spam or Unsolicited Advertising: Do not post spam, chain letters, pyramid schemes, or unsolicited commercial solicitations.
Disclose Material Connections: If you have a material connection to a product or service you are reviewing or recommending (e.g., you received it for free or are an affiliate), you must clearly disclose this connection.
Be Related to Weight Loss in a Healthy and Responsible Manner: Content should promote safe and sustainable weight loss practices. Avoid promoting extreme diets, dangerous weight loss methods, or unrealistic expectations.

Regarding Before-and-After Photos:

Honesty and Accuracy: Before-and-after photos must be authentic and not digitally altered to misrepresent results.
Respect for Privacy: Obtain explicit consent from any individuals depicted in photos before sharing them.
Focus on Lifestyle Changes: Encourage a focus on overall health and well-being rather than solely on weight loss numbers.
Avoid Unrealistic Expectations: Do not use photos that suggest rapid or extreme weight loss is typical or easily achievable.
