Forbidden Behaviors

Focusmate is an amazing community, but the internet is a big place, and sometimes people use it irresponsibly. We’ve put these rules in place to keep you safe. If you don’t feel safe or if someone breaks one of these rules, please let us know. We’ve got your back — and so do 99.99% of the people using Focusmate!

These rules apply to all interactions on Focusmate—in sessions, in all community forums, and at all Focusmate events.

Breaking these rules will result in a ban:

1. No nudity, sexual acts, or sexual harassment. No nudity, no sexual acts, and nothing sexually suggestive at all.
2. No threats, violence, or harm. Don’t threaten anyone in any way. Don’t harm someone else or yourself..
3. No hateful conduct or harrassment. Don’t harass, bully, or shame anyone. Don’t do anything that demeans, defames, or promotes discrimination or violence on the basis of gender identity or expression, race, ethnicity, national origin, age, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, religion, or veteran status.
4. No flirting or inappropriate comments. Don’t be flirty or make suggestive remarks. Keep the conversation focused on work. Don’t ask for your partner’s full name, exact location, age, or anything else that’s personally identifiable.
5. No inappropriate attire. You don’t need to dress up, but you should be appropriately covered up, as you would be going to a cafe, including wearing a shirt and shorts/pants/skirt at all times.
6. No selling. Don’t use Focusmate to sell or promote a product, service, or brand. No “soft-selling”, i.e., promoting content or a brand that you are affiliated with.
