Content Policy

1. The one line that matters most

Kyrune is a general audience service. Sexual content is not allowed here, in any form, whether generated, uploaded or published. If you want to make that kind of work, Kyrune is the wrong place and we will not be offended if you go elsewhere.

2. Why the rule is this strict

2.1 It is simpler to enforce and simpler to understand than a tiered system with switches, opt-ins and veils.

2.2 Our card payment processor prohibits sexually explicit material and prohibits AI-generated material that meets the same description. A service that allowed it could not take card payments.

2.3 A general audience service can be shown to anyone, linked anywhere, and indexed by search engines without a warning gate in front of it.

3. Not allowed: sexual content

You may not generate, upload, publish or request:

• 3.1 Pornography or any depiction whose purpose is sexual arousal.
• 3.2 Sexual acts, simulated sexual acts, or anything that reads as an act in progress.
• 3.3 Nudity, including full or partial nudity, exposed or transparently covered genitals, buttocks or female nipples.
• 3.4 Sexualised framing: a pose, angle, expression or crop whose purpose is to present a body sexually. Close crops on the crotch, buttocks or chest fall here even when clothed.
• 3.5 Underwear, lingerie or swimwear presented sexually, or used as a substitute for nudity. Ordinary swimwear in an ordinary setting, such as a beach or a pool, is fine.
• 3.6 Fetish material, bondage, restraint, and anything whose recognisable purpose is a sexual interest.
• 3.7 Sex toys and adult products.
• 3.8 Bodily fluids used sexually.
• 3.9 Exaggeration of sexual body parts beyond human proportion.
• 3.10 Text, captions, tags, usernames, biographies or file names that are sexually explicit, or that advertise sexual content elsewhere.
• 3.11 Prompts that are written to get around this section, including obfuscated spellings, coded terms, and prompts that split a prohibited idea across fields.

Anatomy, life drawing, medical and educational images are a separate case. See clause 11.

4. Not allowed, ever: minors

4.1 No sexual or sexualised depiction of a minor. Not drawn, not rendered, not stylised, not fictional, not "aged up" in the caption. There is no exception, no artistic defence and no context that makes it acceptable.

4.2 No nudity involving a minor.

4.3 A character is treated as a minor if they read as one in the image. A line in the prompt asserting an age does not change what the picture shows.

4.4 Where minors appear at all, clothing, poses and interactions must be ordinary and age-appropriate. No suggestive clothing, no suggestive posture, no suggestive interaction between minors or between a minor and an adult.

4.5 Prompt language about minors combined with sexual language is blocked at submission. This happens before any image is made, and it happens whether or not the output would have shown anything.

4.6 A breach of this clause ends the account immediately, with no warning and no strike. Where the law requires us to report it, we report it, and we preserve the evidence.

5. Not allowed: real people without their agreement

• 5.1 Do not generate or publish an image of an identifiable real person, living or dead, in a situation they were not in, presented as if real.
• 5.2 Do not use anyone's face, name or likeness to imply they said or did something.
• 5.3 Do not upload a photograph of a person who has not agreed to it being published.
• 5.4 Do not train, upload or use a model or adapter built on a specific real person's likeness.
• 5.5 Public figures may be depicted in commentary, satire and criticism, provided it is clearly not presented as a real event or a real statement. This is a narrow exception and we read it narrowly.
• 5.6 Do not impersonate another person, another creator or Kyrune itself, in a username, a profile or a post.

6. Not allowed: harm to people

• 6.1 Harassment, bullying, threats, stalking, or encouraging others to pile on someone.
• 6.2 Sexualised harassment of any kind, including non-consensual intimate imagery, real or synthetic.
• 6.3 Hate speech, and attacks on a person or a group because of race, ethnicity, national origin, immigration status, religion, caste, sex, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability or serious illness.
• 6.4 Praise, support or promotion of a terrorist or violent extremist organisation, or its symbols used approvingly.
• 6.5 Encouraging, instructing in or glorifying suicide, self-injury or disordered eating.
• 6.6 Doxxing: publishing a person's address, phone number, identity documents, financial details or other private information.

7. Not allowed: graphic violence and cruelty

• 7.1 Gore, mutilation, dismemberment, and realistic depictions of severe injury or death.
• 7.2 Real people's deaths or injuries, and the aftermath of real violent events, published for effect.
• 7.3 Animal cruelty and animal death.
• 7.4 Violence used to threaten or intimidate a real person or group.

Stylised action, fantasy combat and the ordinary violence of storytelling are allowed. The difference is whether the injury itself is the subject.

8. Not allowed: illegal and dangerous material

• 8.1 Instructions for making weapons, explosives, or chemical, biological or radiological agents.
• 8.2 Trade in drugs, weapons, stolen goods, stolen data, counterfeit goods or controlled products.
• 8.3 Fraud, scams, phishing, fake documents, fake currency, fake identification and fake credentials.
• 8.4 Malware, exploits and anything designed to break into a system.
• 8.5 Circumventing this policy, our filters, our rate limits or our credit accounting.

9. Not allowed: other people's work

• 9.1 Do not publish work you do not have the right to publish.
• 9.2 Do not pass off someone else's image, model or writing as yours.
• 9.3 Do not re-upload another Kyrune user's post as your own.
• 9.4 Where a model, adapter or asset you use carries its own licence, follow it.
• 9.5 Copyright complaints have their own route. See the Copyright and Infringement Policy.

10. Not allowed: spam and manipulation

• 10.1 Bulk, repetitive or automated posting, and posting the same thing across many accounts.
• 10.2 Engagement manipulation: extra accounts to inflate counts, follow-and-unfollow schemes, coordinated reporting of someone you dislike.
• 10.3 Advertising unrelated products or services, and links to malware, scams or adult sites.
• 10.4 Political campaigning, religious solicitation and fundraising appeals in posts, comments and profiles.
• 10.5 Misleading claims about health, medicine, or a matter of public safety, presented as fact.

11. Where the line sits on difficult cases

11.1 Anatomy and life drawing. Non-sexual studies of the human form, of the kind found in an art class, are allowed where they are presented as studies and not framed for arousal. Framing decides it. If in doubt, do not publish it.

11.2 Medical and educational images. Allowed where they are genuinely medical or educational and presented as such.

11.3 Swimwear and sportswear. Allowed in the setting they belong to. Not allowed as a stand-in for nudity or in a sexualised pose.

11.4 Romance. Affection is fine. Holding hands, an embrace, a kiss. Anything beyond that is not.

11.5 Horror and dark themes. Allowed. Gore as the subject is not.

11.6 Suggestive but not explicit. This is the hardest category and we resolve it against you. A platform with no sexual content cannot run a "borderline" tier.

11.7 We decide these case by case, looking at the image and its context together. We will not always get it right, which is why there is an appeal.

12. How the rules are enforced

12.1 Before generation. Prompts are checked at submission. A prompt that combines sexual terms with terms describing a minor is refused outright, and the generation never starts. Other prompt checks may refuse or modify a request.

12.2 At publication. Posts are checked when they are published.

12.3 On report. Anyone can report a post, a comment or an account. See clause 14.

12.4 On review. We may review anything at any time.

12.5 We do not review everything before it appears. Content being visible is not our approval of it.

13. What happens when a rule is broken

We use the least severe action that fixes the problem, except where clause 4 applies.

Refusal

A prompt is rejected before anything is generated. Credits are not spent.

Removal

A post or comment stops being visible. The author is told which rule it broke.

Restriction

Publishing, commenting or generating is limited for a period.

Suspension

The account cannot be used for a period.

Closure

The account is closed. Unspent credits are forfeited.

Immediate closure

Clause 4 only, and serious illegal material. No warning, no strike, evidence preserved, reported where required.

13.1 Repeated breaches escalate. A pattern of borderline posts is itself a pattern.

13.2 A removal is normally reversible while an appeal is open: the record and the files are kept so that a decision can be reviewed. Permanent deletion is a separate, deliberate step.

13.3 Opening a new account to get around a suspension or closure is a further breach and the new account will be closed too.

14. Reporting something

14.1 Use the report control on the post, the comment or the profile. Pick the reason that fits best and add detail if it helps.

14.2 The reasons you can choose from are: spam; nudity, pornography or sexually explicit content; self-harm; misinformation; hateful activities; dangerous items; harassment or criticism; violent imagery; privacy violation; my intellectual property; sexual content involving a minor; and impersonating someone. Which reasons apply depends on whether you are reporting a post, a comment or an account.

14.3 A report of sexual content involving a minor jumps the queue and hides the post as soon as it arrives, before anyone has looked at it. That is deliberate. Please do not use it for anything else, because a false report of it wastes the attention that real ones need.

14.4 There is a limit on how many reports one account can file per hour and per day. Mass reporting is itself a form of abuse.

14.5 We do not tell the person you reported who reported them.

14.6 If you cannot use the in-product control, or the matter is urgent, write to [[SUPPORT_EMAIL]].

14.7 For copyright, use the Copyright and Infringement Policy instead. It has its own requirements and its own consequences for a false claim.

15. Appealing a decision

15.1 If we removed your content or restricted your account and you think we got it wrong, appeal. Use the appeal route shown on the notice, or write to [[SUPPORT_EMAIL]] with the identifier of the post or the decision.

15.2 A person reviews the appeal. We aim to answer within [[APPEAL_DEADLINE]].

15.3 Tell us what you think we misread. An appeal that explains the context is much more likely to succeed than one that only disagrees.

15.4 If we agree we were wrong, we restore the content and remove the mark from your account.

15.5 Decisions under clause 4 are not reversed on an artistic argument. If the decision rested on a mistake of identity or a technical error, say so and we will look.

15.6 There is one appeal per decision. [[SECOND_LEVEL_REVIEW]]

16. Blocking and your own controls

16.1 You can block another account. A block stops them following you, seeing your posts while signed in, and commenting on your work. It is not shown to them.

16.2 You can close comments on your own post.

16.3 You can make your profile and your collections private.

16.4 Blocking is for your own comfort. Reporting is for rules. Use both where both apply.

17. Changes

17.1 We may change this policy, and we change it more often than we change the Terms, because it is operational.

17.2 A change that materially narrows what you may do takes effect thirty days after we post it, unless a law or an immediate safety problem requires it sooner.
