In a world where social networks often end up isolating people, Airtime is all about bringing people together. Here, we strive to create the best and safest possible experience so that everyone can have a good time sharing interests, topics, and friendships in live communities.

Our Values

At Airtime, we have five core values: inclusivity, creativity, curiosity, spontaneity, and respect. Each of these values is deeply connected to the others. We believe that a community built on the foundations of inclusivity and respect naturally leads to creativity, curiosity, and spontaneity. We encourage exploration without intimidation. Discovery without fear.

In creating these Community Guidelines, we seek to uphold each of our core values. Our goal is to accommodate the broadest range of self-expression while balancing the need for all members to be able to use Airtime safely and enjoyably.

Airtime’s Community Guidelines apply to all members and all content created, shared, or engaged with on our service. To ensure Airtime remains the joyful, welcoming space that it is, we expect everyone to adhere to these Community Guidelines. If you do not, your Airtime account may be suspended, deleted, or restricted in some way. In some serious circumstances, Airtime may work with law enforcement if we believe there is a genuine risk of physical harm or direct threat to public safety.

Remember, anyone under 13 years of age is strictly prohibited from using Airtime. Parents, please monitor your child’s activity to ensure they are not using Airtime in violation of our Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, or these Community Guidelines. If you believe your child is in violation of our policies, please contact support@airtime.com.

 

Sexually Explicit Content

  • Do not create, distribute, promote, or solicit sexually explicit content or pornographic material.
  • Do not offer or solicit sexual services on Airtime. Sexual services include prostitution, escort services, sexual massages, and filmed sexual activity.
  • Not all nudity is sexually explicit. Breastfeeding and other depictions of nudity in a wholly non-sexual context are permissible on Airtime.

Harm to Minors

  • Airtime is deeply committed to the safety of our members, including members under the age of 18. As such, we have zero tolerance for child abuse, including the posting, sharing, sending, or broadcasting of sexually explicit content that involves anyone under the age of 18, whether it be a video, image, photo, illustration, animation, or text. This includes posting sexually explicit content of yourself if you are under the age of 18, but note that posting any sexually explicit content, of a member of any age, is against Airtime's policies. 
  • We also have zero tolerance for predatory or grooming behavior that solicits sexual behavior or acts from minors.
  • Airtime will report any child sexual exploitation material to relevant authorities, including the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC).

  • Do not pretend to be someone else—including people you know, celebrities, brands, or other organizations.

Invasion of Privacy

  • Do not post or solicit others’ personal information, including but not limited to home addresses, email addresses, or phone numbers. We also strongly recommend that you protect your own personal information.

  • Alcohol use, vaping, and/or smoking are not permitted for underage members.
  • Do not use Airtime for conducting illegal activity, including but not limited to buying or selling illegal goods.

One of the best parts of the Airtime community is everyone’s role in making it a joyful place. We all work together, creating and caring for the spaces we love. To ensure Airtime stays this way, please respect these Community Guidelines while using Airtime and do your part to build a safe and welcoming community for all members.

These Guidelines will change and evolve over time, along with changes to our product and the community. We will do our best to enforce them consistently and fairly, but it is your responsibility to keep up-to-date with the Guidelines. All actions taken on infringing accounts will be at the discretion of Airtime.

 

These Community Guidelines were last revised on, and effective as of November 24, 2020.
