6ix — Acceptable Use & Prohibited Activities
This policy explains what you can and cannot do on 6ix. It protects creators, audiences, and the platform so your work can thrive. It applies to all features, including 6IXAI, coins, wallets, boosts, streams, comments, messages, and third-party integrations.
Last updated: 2025-10-28
1) Overview
Why we have rules
6ix is a creator-first community. Clear rules help keep people safe, reduce fraud, respect rights, and ensure that the most creative work gets discovered. Violations may lead to content removal, feature limits, payment holds, or account action.
Where this policy applies
All surfaces of 6ix (web, apps, APIs), our payments/coins systems, and official communities. When using app stores or partner wallets, their rules also apply.
2) Core principles
Create, don’t harm
We encourage bold art and expression. Do not harm people, exploit audiences, or bypass safety systems.
Earn fairly
Monetization must be honest, clearly described, and compliant with local law. No deceptive or abusive billing.
Respect rights
Use content you own or are licensed to use. Give proper attributions where licenses require it.
Protect minors & vulnerable groups
Content involving minors has strict rules; sexualization of minors is banned across the platform.
3) Key definitions
Creator & audience
“Creators” publish content, run streams, sell items, or use creator tools. “Audiences” consume content, tip, subscribe, or purchase items. Users can be both.
Coins & wallets
Coins
Coins are prepaid credits used for boosts, 6IXAI usage, tips, and select items. Consumed coins are generally non-refundable (see Refunds — Digital).
Wallets
Wallet features may be custodied by partners. Identity verification and sanctions screening can be required for withdrawals or higher limits (see KYC/AML).
Verification ticks
Blue tick — Pro
For Pro users. Indicates verified profile metadata and enhanced account standing. Not an endorsement.
White tick — Pro Max
For Pro Max users. Elevated verification and eligibility for additional distribution features.
Star ⭐ tick — earned
Recognizes top creators with consistent positive impact and engagement. Earnings multipliers may apply relative to blue tick creators. Awarded, not purchased.
4) Content standards
Illegal & dangerous
Strictly prohibited
- Illegal content or activity, including solicitation or facilitation.
- Explosives, weapons manufacturing instructions, or explicit crime guidance.
- Human trafficking, exploitation, or promotion of self-harm.
Regulated areas
Some topics have regional restrictions (e.g., medical, financial advice). If you create in regulated domains, include disclaimers and follow applicable laws. We may limit distribution where laws require.
Sexual content, minors & exploitation
Absolutely banned
- Sexualization of minors, real or simulated.
- Non-consensual content or leaks.
- Sexual services solicitation.
Adult content boundaries
Non-explicit artistic nudity can be allowed with age gates and regional rules. Pornographic content may be restricted by law, app stores, or distribution policies. Follow local laws and platform placement rules.
Hateful & violent conduct
Hate & harassment
Targeted harassment, slurs, or dehumanization based on protected characteristics is prohibited. Debate ideas, not people.
Violence & threats
Credible threats or calls to violence are prohibited. News or documentary context must avoid glorification.
Deceptive or harmful misinformation
High-risk harm
Content likely to cause real-world harm (e.g., dangerous medical claims) may be removed or labeled; links to authoritative resources can be shown where appropriate.
Manipulative media
Deceptive deepfakes of real persons in harmful contexts are prohibited. Satire/transformative art must be clearly labeled as such.
Privacy & personal data
No doxxing
Don’t publish personal data (addresses, IDs, non-public contact info) without explicit consent. Respect privacy laws; see Privacy.
Sensitive imagery
Graphic injury or accident scenes require context warnings and may have limited distribution.
Intellectual property
Own it or license it
Upload content you created or have licensed. For music, samples, and footage, secure rights before posting.
DMCA & takedowns
We respond to valid notices under Copyright/DMCA. Repeated infringement may lead to loss of features or account termination.
Promotions, ads & sponsorships
Transparency
Clearly disclose paid promotions or sponsorships. Follow regional ad laws and our Ads Policy.
Restricted promotions
Some products (e.g., gambling, adult services, unlawful substances) are restricted or banned. We may require age and location targeting or refuse placements altogether.
5) Platform integrity & abuse
Spam & fake engagement
No manipulation
- Buying/selling follows, likes, plays, or comments.
- “Engagement pods” or coordinated inauthentic amplification.
- Malicious link shorteners or cloaking to mislead users.
Fair discovery
Use boosts and placements as designed. Attempts to game rankings or circumvent caps are prohibited and may lead to zeroed metrics or feature loss.
Scraping & reverse engineering
Automated access
Unapproved scraping or bulk data collection is prohibited. Respect robots rules and API terms; use official exports where provided.
Reverse engineering
Do not attempt to access private endpoints, bypass paywalls/limits, or expose source code or secrets.
Security misuse
No abuse of trust
Report vulnerabilities to security@6ixapp.com. Don’t exploit bugs, brute-force accounts, or share exploits publicly without coordination.
Account protection
Enable 2FA. Sharing accounts or selling access is prohibited. See Security.
Payments, coins & charge fraud
No payment abuse
- Using stolen cards or identities.
- Charging back consumed services or delivered items.
- Money laundering or sanctions evasion (see KYC/AML).
Consequences
We may claw back coins from disputed top-ups, pause payouts, or restrict features while investigations occur. See Disputes & Chargebacks.
6) 6IXAI & automation
AI usage rules
Creative & compliant
AI generations must comply with these standards and applicable laws. Label AI-generated or heavily edited content when context matters (e.g., newsy or realistic depictions).
Sensitive personas
Don’t generate deceptive depictions of real people in harmful contexts. For minors or private individuals, avoid realistic likeness without consent.
Developers & APIs
Use approved interfaces
Build on documented APIs and SDKs. Don’t create alternative clients that bypass safety, payments, or limits.
Data handling
Cache responsibly, respect rate limits, and delete data on request. You’re responsible for third-party libraries you ship to your audience.
Rate limits & fairness
Shared resources
We enforce rate limits so everyone gets fast service. Bursts that harm reliability may be throttled or blocked.
Plan tiers
Pro and Pro Max have higher limits and verification ticks. Star-tick creators may receive additional priority based on earned status. See Billing & Subscriptions.
7) Enforcement & consequences
Actions we may take
Graduated responses
- Content labeling, age-gating, or distribution limits.
- Temporary feature restrictions or boosts removal.
- Coins clawback for fraudulent top-ups.
- Account warnings, suspensions, or termination for repeat or severe violations.
Payments & payouts
We may hold payouts or reverse credits related to violations. For creators, repeated policy hits can impact eligibility for promotions and Star-tick consideration.
Appeals & education
Appeal path
If you think we made a mistake, appeal in-product or email safety@6ixapp.com. Provide context, links, and why the decision should change.
Learning center
We share best-practice guides and policy explainers to help creators avoid issues and grow safely.
Law enforcement & emergencies

In imminent harm cases we may disclose limited data consistent with law. See Law Enforcement Guidelines.
