Community Guidelines

Ecstatic brings together diverse communities of people to experience a wide variety of different activities in real life and online. The integrity of Ecstatic is something we take seriously and we are committed to our platform being used in a safe, secure, legal, and dignified manner. This is why we have developed these Community Guidelines, which reflect our core Values, to describe the types of events, activities, and content that we promote and prevent at Ecstatic.

Do's

1. Create great events for adults

Whether you're interested in offering on Ecstatic a dance or yoga retreat, or a coaching service, or nearly anything else, you're free to offer events here that bring adult communities together.

2. Share respectful, educational and celebratory content

We highly encourage using our platform to offer educational and celebratory events, teachings and services that bring together different cultures. We encourage you to express your talents, inspire our growing Ecstatic community, and share your unique perspectives and insights with others.

3. List your own content or that which is obtained with permission

You may include content (e.g., text, photos, videos, logos) in your event listing that you've created, or obtained with permission, provided that it is not unkind, sexually explicit, or violates these Guidelines.

4. Sell event-related merchandise

You can sell event-related merchandise with your event registrations, but only sell merchandise that you created or are permitted to sell and that is legal and safe.

5. Facilitate events that are safe and legal

Make sure to do what is necessary to ensure the safety and legality of the events and merchandise that you list and is sold on Ecstatic.

8. Don't infringe on the privacy of others

9. Don't post gratuitous or explicit content

Although the Ecstatic platform is for persons of legal adult age, it is not a place to post gratuitous pornography, or to post any content that is violent or lacks kindheartedness (at our discretion). This applies to anything posted to our Ecstatic platform including event descriptions and titles, messages, images and videos. We appreciate that nudity is not inherently pornographic, and that some tasteful nudity may be useful to communicate the nature of an event on our Ecstatic platform. We reserve the right to remove content that depicts nudity (at our discretion), or content that may shock the viewer. We also reserve the right to remove or make private some content on the Ecstatic platform; through content moderation, our intention is to provide the community with a balance of safety and appropriateness for the majority of our community while honoring ecstatic self-expression.

How to report an issue

Our goal is to promote a kindhearted and safe community through the services provided by the Ecstatic platform. If you discover a listing or content on the Ecstatic platform that might violate these Community Guidelines or our Terms and Conditions, please contact us right away. After reviewing your report, we may or may not reach out to you for more information. Please remember that Ecstatic encourages a global and diverse community, therefore what someone might find offensive might not be determined by us to violate our Community Guidelines. Nonetheless, please know that we truly value your feedback as it helps us develop an increasingly beneficial service.

Violations of these Community Guidelines

If we determine that content on the Ecstatic platform violates these Community Guidelines, we might decide to remove only the infringing content, or we may decide to take down the content entirely, or take alternative action altogether. If the violation is serious (in our sole evaluation), we might decide to suspend or terminate the associated Ecstatic account. Please note: In rare cases, while not in violation of these Community Guidelines, we may at our discretion determine that certain content is not appropriate for the majority of our community. In such cases, we may decide to make this content private or reduce its distribution.

If we think there is a real risk of harm to a person or a group of people, or direct threats to public safety, we take decisive action on our Ecstatic platform, and notify law enforcement (at our discretion). This can include issuing a report of child sexual abuse to authorities. If you or someone you know is in immediate danger as a result of content posted on Ecstatic, please immediately contact local law enforcement, then please contact us.
