Community Guidelines

Our Mission

BOLANGX's mission is to bring inspiration to everyone and help them create a life they love. This is our goal, but not all content is inspiring, so we have established community guidelines to specify what is and isn't allowed on BOLANGX. These guidelines are our acceptable use policy, so if you find content that shouldn't be on BOLANGX, please report it to us. We appreciate your valuable feedback and will strive to review your reported content and take appropriate action in a timely manner. We will use your reported content to research and improve our standards and work with subject matter experts to promote and update our guidelines. We publish a transparency report twice a year, which provides details on how we enforce these guidelines.

Content Safety

BOLANGX prohibits hostile, explicit, false or misleading, harmful, hateful, or violent content or behavior. Depending on the level of harm the content may cause, we may remove, limit, or block the distribution of such content, as well as the accounts, individuals, groups, and domains that create or spread it. Our policies apply to everyone and all types of content, including synthetic content.

We prohibit violent actors, hate groups, or malicious misinformation actors from having an account. If a BOLANGX account belongs to any of these groups or related individuals, we may consider off-platform actions when evaluating enforcement actions against the account.

We are committed to providing you with clear, transparent, and easy-to-understand expectations. If you have any questions or encounter any issues with BOLANGX, please contact us.
