Community Guidelines
Effective November 6, 2026
tidbok exists to help you plan and share moments with the people and communities you care about. These guidelines apply to everything on the Service: events and invitations, posts, comments, reactions, messages, pictures, profiles and public pages. They sit alongside our Terms of Service.
What we welcome
- Accurate, well-described events, with the real time, place and price.
- Friendly notes to your friends and followers: a hike on Saturday, a pool afternoon, a heads-up that you are away.
- Honest comments, questions (“how was it?”) and feedback.
- Inclusive language across cultures, ages, abilities and identities.
- Respectful disagreement, and taking “no” or silence for an answer.
What we do not allow
- Hate speech or harassment. No attacks based on race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, disability, gender, sexual orientation, age or other protected characteristics. No bullying, pile-ons or repeated unwanted contact.
- Threats, or incitement or glorification of violence or self-harm.
- Sexually explicit content, nudity, or any content that sexualizes or endangers minors. Do not post pictures of other people's children without their parents' permission.
- Illegal activity, including the sale of regulated goods, drugs, weapons or stolen property.
- Spam, scams and phishing: repeated or bulk invitations, comments or messages; chain messages; links that mislead; asking people for money or sign-in details; coordinated fake accounts or likes.
- Misinformation that could cause real-world harm, including false event details meant to mislead.
- Privacy violations, including doxxing, sharing someone's private messages, phone number, address or location without consent, or posting a person's photo in a way they would object to.
- Impersonation of a person, business, organization or public figure, and pages that claim to represent someone they do not.
- Intellectual-property infringement.
Posts and comments
Say what is true and keep it relevant. Choose the audience you mean: friends, followers and friends, or everyone. Public posts can be seen by people you do not know. Do not use comments to advertise, to argue with people until they leave, or to pressure someone to attend. If you ask people to join something, make the time and place clear and be honest if plans change. An away notice is a courtesy: please do not use someone else's away notice to track or pressure them.
Messages
- You can message anyone, but messages from people who are not friends arrive as a request. Respect the answer: if someone declines, ignores or blocks you, stop. Trying to get around a block or a message limit is a violation.
- No unsolicited promotion, no mass messaging, and no pressure for money or personal details.
- Messages are not end-to-end encrypted and a moderator can read a message that has been reported. Do not share anything you would not want a moderator to see.
Pictures
Only post pictures you own or have permission to share. Pictures on invitations can be seen by anyone with the link, and pictures on public posts by anyone who can see the post. We remove location data from uploaded pictures, but not what the picture itself shows, so take care with houses, school uniforms, street signs and children. We do not scan pictures automatically; people review reports.
Pages, businesses and public figures
Run a page only for something you are authorized to represent. Keep hours, prices, event details and cancellations accurate. Do not use a page to advertise to people who have not followed or contacted it, to buy followers or reactions, or to pose as someone else. Remove abusive comments on your page. A Verified mark means we checked who runs the page, not that we endorse an event or business.
Events and hosts
Hosts are responsible for the safety and legality of their events and for being clear about who is welcome, especially children. Do not invite people who have asked you not to, and honour STOP replies to text invitations.
Reporting
Events, posts, comments, messages, profiles, pages and shared invitation pages each have a “Report” option in their menu. Reports need a tidbok account. If you do not have one, email support@tidbok.com with the link and what is wrong and we will treat it the same way.
We aim to review every report within 24 hours. The person you reported is not told who filed it. Urgent safety concerns can be sent directly to support@tidbok.com. If you believe someone is in immediate danger, contact local emergency services first — we are not an emergency service and cannot respond at that speed.
Blocking
You can block any person from their profile, a post or comment, or a message. Blocking hides your content from each other, stops them from messaging, inviting or following you, and removes any follow or pending friend request in both directions. They are not notified. You can review and undo blocks at any time in Settings.
Enforcement
Depending on severity and history, we may remove a post, comment, message, picture or event, limit features such as posting or messaging, suspend an account, or permanently terminate it. We may act without warning when someone is at risk. Serious violations, and anything involving the safety of children, may be reported to the authorities.
Appeals
If you believe an enforcement action was incorrect, email support@tidbok.com within 30 days. A person will review it — not an automated system — and we will tell you the outcome and the reason for it.
