Community Guidelines

1. Respect other producers and artists

Treat every person on the platform the way you'd want to be treated in the studio. Constructive feedback is welcome; personal attacks are not. Criticism of someone's music is one thing — attacking the person behind it is against these guidelines.

2. No harassment, hate speech, or discrimination

Harassment — repeated unwanted contact, threats, or targeted abuse — has no place here. Neither does hate speech based on race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, religion, disability, or any other characteristic. Any content or behaviour that demeans or targets people will be removed and the account reviewed.

3. No spam or unsolicited self-promotion

Share your work in the right places. Don't flood other people's riddim pages, inboxes, or comment sections with promotional material. Gruuvr has designated spaces for discovery and promotion — use them. Repeated spam will result in account restrictions.

4. No impersonation

Don't create an account pretending to be another producer, artist, or public figure. If you're inspired by someone, make that clear. Fake accounts and impersonation are grounds for immediate termination.

5. No fraudulent split agreements

Manipulating, forging, or misrepresenting collaboration splits is a serious violation. If you invite someone as a collaborator, the split you agree on should reflect the actual contribution. Attempting to deceive a collaborator over royalties or credits will result in account termination and may be reported to relevant authorities.

6. Credit your collaborators honestly

Taking credit for someone else's work — whether a beat, a topline, a mix, or a concept — is one of the worst things you can do in a music community. Gruuvr's fork lineage system exists precisely to preserve credit trails. Don't try to circumvent it, and don't claim contributions you didn't make.

7. Enforcement

We review reports from the community and may take the following actions depending on the severity and frequency of violations:

• Warning — a notification that your behaviour or content has been flagged.
• Content removal — specific posts, uploads, or messages may be removed.
• Temporary suspension — account access restricted while we review a situation.
• Permanent termination — reserved for serious or repeated violations.

8. Report violations

If you see something that violates these guidelines, report it through the in-app support system or email hello@gruuvr.com. We review every report and follow up where needed.
