Community Guidelines

Tapnudge is a human feedback app. These rules keep nudges useful, consent-aware, and safe for everyday decisions.

Threats, Violence, and Harm

Nudges must not encourage violence, celebrate cruelty, pressure people toward harm, or make users feel unsafe.

What this means for nudges

A nudge can influence how people think and act. Do not create polls that invite harm, normalize threats, or turn dangerous behavior into a game.

Not allowed

Threats to harm a person, group, property, school, workplace, event, or community.
Nudges asking whether someone should be attacked, excluded, punished, injured, or abused.
Graphic gore, torture, extreme violence, or content depicting serious injury without clear safety value.
Animal cruelty, abuse, torture, or content that encourages harm to animals.
Encouragement of suicide, self-harm, eating disorders, or dangerous challenges.

Allowed with care

Non-graphic news, educational, or safety discussion when the nudge is not sensationalized.
Personal support questions that ask for help or resources without encouraging harmful action.

Enforcement

Content that suggests imminent harm or serious danger may be removed quickly and may be escalated for additional review or emergency handling.

Questions and Examples

Can I ask for advice during a stressful situation?

Yes, but avoid framing the nudge as a vote on whether you or another person should be harmed. If there is immediate danger, contact local emergency services or trusted support.

Can I post shocking footage to ask what people think?

Graphic shock content is not appropriate for Tapnudge. Use non-graphic context if the goal is awareness or discussion.
