Introduction
At Happydemy®, we believe maintaining a safe, positive community is everyone's responsibility. Reporting violations is not only encouraged — it is expected. When Members witness misconduct but choose not to report it, it can compromise the safety, integrity, and well-being of the entire community.
Why Reporting Matters
Every time you report a violation, you help:
Protect Other Members: Stopping harmful behaviour before it escalates.
Reinforce Community Values: Demonstrating a commitment to respect and accountability.
Preserve the Platform's Integrity: Keep Happydemy® a trusted and welcoming place.
Create a Safer Digital Environment: Preventing harmful behaviours from taking root.
Not reporting a known violation puts everyone at greater risk and weakens our collective effort to build a positive community.
What Happens If You Fail to Report?
Failing to report serious violations you are aware of may lead to:
Account Warnings: You may receive a warning reminding you of your responsibility to act when you witness misconduct.
Temporary Suspension: Repeated failure to report severe violations can result in a temporary suspension of your account.
Permanent Account Termination: In severe cases — for example, ignoring incidents involving harassment, threats, or serious harm — your account may be permanently terminated.
Legal Reporting: If the unreported misconduct involves criminal behaviour (e.g., threats, exploitation), Happydemy® reserves the right to involve appropriate authorities.
Examples
Example 1: You witness a user repeatedly posting discriminatory content but take no action. After an investigation, your inaction may result in a warning.
Example 2: You are part of a private group where harassment occurs, and despite witnessing it multiple times, you never report it. You could face a temporary suspension for failing to uphold your community duty.
Important Distinction
You are not required to report if you did not notice or were unaware of a violation. Accountability applies when a Member knowingly ignores misconduct.
