EFFECTIVE OCTOBER 10, 2026

Acceptable Use Policy

What you can post on Charfeed, what's not allowed, and what happens if something crosses the line.

Charfeed is a platform for original fictional digital characters, including AI-generated, illustrated, 3D-rendered, and VTuber characters. Adult content and services are prohibited on charfeed.com and in the Charfeed mobile apps.

This Acceptable Use Policy applies to all users and all uses of Charfeed, including profiles, posts, uploads, comments, subscriptions, paid content, tips, direct messages, AI chat inputs and outputs, and external links. The same rules apply to public and private content, whether free or paid, and to real, fictional, and AI-generated material. You must not create, request, upload, share, promote, or sell prohibited content or services.

If a rule feels unclear, reach out at support@charfeed.com. We'd rather answer a question than remove a post.

What Charfeed is for

Charfeed is built for fictional digital characters. Original characters, designed and owned by the creators who bring them to life. That means:

  • AI-generated characters with trained models or diffusion pipelines
  • Hand-drawn characters, digital or traditional
  • 3D-rendered characters built in Blender, Daz, VRoid, or similar tools
  • VTuber avatars, Live2D or 3D rigs
  • Any other original character you create from scratch

The key word is original. Characters you designed, models you trained, avatars you rigged.

Content ratings on Charfeed

Charfeed currently supports two content ratings. Both are welcome, both are monetizable, both appear in the main feed.

SFW (safe for work)

General-audience content. Anything you'd post on Instagram or share in a mixed-company setting.

Examples of SFW content:

  • Character portraits, scenes, and storytelling posts
  • Process shots, behind-the-scenes, speedpaints
  • Fashion, outfit design, concept art
  • Everyday scenes — characters at cafes, traveling, reading, gaming
  • Fantasy, sci-fi, slice-of-life — any genre, as long as imagery stays general-audience

Suggestive

Non-explicit fashion, swimwear, fully covered lingerie, and romantic scenes may be permitted only if they contain no nudity or sexual acts and are not designed for sexual gratification. A Suggestive label does not exempt content from this policy.

Examples of what counts as suggestive:

  • Swimwear, beachwear, gym wear
  • Lingerie and sleepwear, with full coverage
  • Suggestive poses that remain non-explicit
  • Romantic scenes between characters (kissing, embracing, non-explicit intimacy)

Examples of what does NOT count as suggestive (and is not allowed):

  • Visible genitalia, nipples, or sexual acts
  • Sexual acts implied or in-progress
  • Content focused on sexual arousal
  • Anything meant to function as pornography

What's not allowed

Charfeed does not permit any of the following. Posting any of it is grounds for immediate removal, payout freeze, and account termination.

Explicit and adult content

  • Nudity, including exposed genitalia, anus, or nipples. Artistic or fictional framing does not create an exception.
  • Explicit sexual acts, penetration, or masturbation, whether depicted, described, implied, or simulated.
  • Adult services, including sexual services, erotic roleplay, and adult audio or video live chat.
  • Pornography and content designed for sexual gratification, including writing, images, audio, video, and AI-generated conversations. This includes subscriber-only nude images and paid sexual content.
  • Links or redirects to adult content hosted elsewhere

Child sexual abuse material (CSAM)

Child sexual abuse material (CSAM) and child sexual exploitation are strictly prohibited. This includes creating, requesting, possessing through the Service, distributing, selling, or linking to such material. Real or fictional characters who are under 18 or appear to be minors may not be sexualized. A stated adult age, consent claim, artistic purpose, or AI-generated origin does not create an exception.

Violations are reported to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) and law enforcement where required.

Real people without consent

  • Photographs or likeness of real people used without their consent
  • AI-generated content depicting real, identifiable people (celebrities, public figures, or private individuals)
  • Deepfakes, face swaps, or digital manipulation of real people
  • Non-consensual intimate imagery of any kind

Charfeed is for fictional characters. If your character resembles a real person by accident, that's usually fine. If you're intentionally recreating a real person, it's not.

Violence and harm

  • Graphic violence, gore, mutilation, or torture
  • Content glorifying or encouraging real-world violence
  • Content depicting self-harm or suicide in a way that could encourage it
  • Animal cruelty or abuse

Hate and harassment

  • Slurs, hate speech, or dehumanizing content targeting people based on race, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability, or similar attributes
  • Harassment, stalking, or coordinated attacks on individuals
  • Violent extremism: content that engages in, encourages, promotes, or celebrates unlawful violence or physical harm, including violence toward any group based on race, religion, disability, gender, sexual orientation, national origin, or any other immutable characteristic.
  • Nazi, white supremacist, or other extremist symbology used in support of the ideology

Illegal content and activity

  • Content depicting illegal activity in a way that promotes or enables it
  • Sale of illegal goods or services
  • Instructions for building weapons, synthesizing drugs, or committing fraud
  • Intellectual property or proprietary rights infringement, including unauthorized use or distribution of copyrighted music, leaked music albums, films, software, images, writing, or other protected material; trademark or patent infringement; and disclosure of trade secrets. You must hold the rights or permissions required for what you upload, share, or sell.

Impersonation and deception

  • Pretending to be another creator or platform
  • Claiming ownership of characters, styles, or content you didn't create
  • Fake engagement — bought followers, bot likes, coordinated inauthentic behavior
  • Scams, phishing, or fraudulent offers

Spam and platform abuse

  • Repetitive posts, mass-posted content, or off-topic spam
  • Using the platform to drive traffic to unrelated external services
  • Circumventing rate limits, content filters, or account restrictions
  • Creating multiple accounts to evade bans

Offers inside AI chats

Characters on Charfeed can hold one-on-one AI chat conversations with subscribers. During those conversations, a character's chat agent may propose paid actions that are available anywhere else on the platform: subscribing to a tier, unlocking a specific premium post, tipping, or buying a paid DM. Offers appear as inline cards in the chat; payment is processed by Stripe without leaving the conversation.

The platform enforces the following limits on in-chat offers, and creators cannot relax them:

  • No offers in the first few messages of a new conversation.
  • A minimum cooldown between consecutive offers in the same session.
  • A hard daily cap on offers shown to the same subscriber by the same character.
  • After a subscriber declines an offer, new offers in that session are blocked for a cooldown period.
  • Every subscriber can enable "fewer offers" — globally or per character — in chat preferences. When enabled, the daily cap drops further and the session cap goes to zero after one decline.
  • Offer copy may not include fake countdowns, fake stock counts, fake social-proof ("X other people just bought"), or shaming language. A server-side classifier rejects offers that cross these lines before the subscriber ever sees them.

Creators choose which offer kinds their character can propose (tier subscribe, post unlock, tip, paid DM) and may pick between three aggressiveness levels within the daily cap. They cannot override the guardrails above. The goal is durable subscriber relationships, not short-term extraction.

Chat revenue appears separately in the creator dashboard so creators can see what their character offered, what converted, and what did not — without any of the dark-pattern levers that would be available on unregulated surfaces.

How we enforce this

We use automated checks, user reports, and human review to identify policy violations. Users can report content from a post or contact support@charfeed.com about any part of the Service, including private messages and AI chats. Do not bypass moderation, age restrictions, or account or payment restrictions.

When something violates this policy, we take action at one of these levels, depending on severity:

  1. Content removal — the post comes down, creator is notified
  2. Content warning — formal notice placed on account
  3. Monetization freeze — ability to receive subscriptions, tips, or payouts is paused while under review
  4. Account suspension — temporary loss of platform access
  5. Permanent ban — reserved for severe or repeated violations. Any restriction on payments or payouts is subject to applicable law and the relevant payment terms.

Appeals are handled by emailing support@charfeed.com. We respond within 5 business days.

Reporting content

If you see something that violates this policy, report it using the report button on any post. Reports are reviewed within 24 hours in most cases.

For urgent concerns — content involving minors, threats of violence, imminent harm — or for other content questions, email support@charfeed.com. Urgent reports are prioritized.

Policy changes

We update this policy as the platform grows. Significant changes are announced by email to all creators at least 14 days before taking effect. Minor clarifications may be published without notice.
