Acceptable Use Policy
What you may not publish on you.new, and what happens if you do.
Last updated: October 2026
Draft — under review, not yet in force
This document is published for review and is not the final policy. Some details are still to be confirmed and are marked as such. It does not yet create binding obligations for either you or us.
1. Scope
This policy applies to everything you publish through you.new: your page, your tabs, your cards, your links, your uploaded images and files, your text, your contact information, and any third-party content you embed. It applies whether your page is public or hidden, and whether your account is free or paid.
It forms part of the Terms of Service. By creating a page you agree to it.
2. Content you may not publish
You may not publish, link to, or embed:
- Sexual content. Nudity, pornography, sexually explicit imagery, or content whose primary purpose is sexual arousal.
- Child sexual abuse material. Any sexual content involving a minor. This is never permitted under any circumstance. It is reported to the relevant authorities and results in immediate and permanent removal of the account.
- Violent or graphic content. Real or simulated violence, gore, mutilation, or imagery intended to shock or disgust.
- Self-harm content. Content that promotes, encourages, or gives instructions for suicide, self-injury, or disordered eating.
- Hate and harassment. Content attacking a person or group based on race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, disability, sex, gender identity, or sexual orientation. Content targeting, threatening, or intimidating a specific person.
- Scams, fraud, and misleading earnings claims. Deceptive offers, fake earnings claims, fabricated income screenshots, phishing, counterfeit goods, or anything designed to take money or credentials under false pretenses. You may not publish commission figures, income projections, or lifestyle claims that misrepresent what you or others have actually earned. Illustrative examples must be clearly labeled as such.
- Impersonation. Presenting yourself as another person, business, or brand you are not authorized to represent. This includes creating pages that impersonate or mislead visitors about any association with you.new, BetterMarketers, or any other platform or company.
- Competitor impersonation. Creating a page using a name, handle, logo, or branding that falsely implies affiliation with another company or platform in order to mislead visitors or capture their information under false pretenses.
- Spam. Bulk, repetitive, or automated content published to manipulate rather than communicate.
- Illegal content. Anything unlawful where you or your audience are located, including the sale of controlled substances, weapons, or stolen data.
- Malware and harmful code.Links or embeds that distribute malicious software or attempt to compromise a visitor’s device or accounts.
3. Conduct you may not engage in
- Disguising a destination.Linking to a page that shows one thing to us and another to your visitors. Using redirect chains or shorteners to conceal a destination. Changing a link’s destination after publishing to something this policy prohibits.
- Evading enforcement. Creating a new page or account to restore removed content, or circumventing a restriction placed on your page.
- Abusing the reporting system.Submitting false or repeated reports against another member’s page.
- Abusing a member’s contact form.Using a member’s Exchange Contact form or any contact mechanism on a you.new page to send abuse, threats, spam, or advertising. Submitting contact details that are not yours. Downloading contact information shared with you through you.new and adding it to bulk mailing or messaging lists the person did not opt into.
- Misusing details people give you. If you ask visitors for their details — through a form, an email capture card, or any other mechanism — use that information only for the purpose they agreed to. You may not add them to unrelated lists, sell their information, or contact them in ways they did not request.
- Gaming the Discover page. Creating multiple accounts, using automated tools, or coordinating artificial engagement to manipulate how profiles rank or appear on the you.new Discover directory. The Discover page reflects genuine activity. Attempts to artificially inflate visibility are treated as abuse.
- Interfering with the service. Bypassing technical limits, accessing data that is not yours, or disrupting the service for others.
4. Third-party content you embed
Widgets, forms, chat tools, and other embeds you place on your page are your responsibility. Content served by a third party through your page is treated as your content under this policy. We may block specific domains or embed sources across the whole service at any time.
You are responsible for ensuring that any third-party tool you embed complies with applicable privacy laws in the jurisdictions where your visitors are located. This includes obtaining any required consents before deploying tracking pixels, chat tools, or lead capture forms through your page.
A form on your page may not ask visitors for passwords, or for card or bank numbers outside an approved checkout. Embeds from sources we don’t recognise are reviewed by a person, and links are checked against known lists of harmful sites.
5. How we enforce this
Depending on the severity and the circumstances, we may:
- Refuse an upload. An image or file that clearly breaches Section 2 may be rejected as you upload it. It is not stored and never appears on your page.
- Remove a single card. The offending card, link, or embed is removed while the rest of your page stays live.
- Take your page offline. Your page stops loading at its address and stops appearing in link previews and member networks. You can continue editing it while it is offline.
- Suspend your account. All pages associated with your account are taken offline. Your account becomes inaccessible. Your data is preserved for the duration of any appeal. Account suspension is used where a single page action is insufficient but permanent removal is not yet warranted.
- Permanently delete uploaded images associated with the page.
- Block a domain across the service, removing links to it from every page.
- Permanently remove your account. All pages, tabs, cards, contacts, and data are deleted. This action is irreversible and is reserved for the most serious violations, including child sexual abuse material, repeated evasion of enforcement, or coordinated fraud.
We may act without prior warning where content is clearly and seriously in breach. For anything less clear-cut, content stays live while a person reviews it.
Action taken against your page does not entitle you to a refund, except where required by law.
6. How you will know, and how to respond
How you will know. If your page is taken offline or your account is suspended, a notice appears in your page builder the next time you sign in. The notice states what was restricted and the reason.
How to respond. If you believe we have made a mistake, contact support and describe what was removed and why you think the decision was wrong. A person will look at it again.
We aim to respond within 48 hours, and we may decline to reverse a decision. Where content is restored it becomes visible again immediately.
7. Automated screening
We use automated systems to check images and text published through you.new for the content described in Section 2. Where image screening is enabled, images you upload are sent to a third-party classification provider for analysis. This is described in our Privacy Policy, which explains what data is shared, with whom, and for how long it is retained.
Automated systems make mistakes. They are used to refuse the clearest breaches and otherwise to flag content for a person to review — they do not take a page offline on their own.
Your content is not used to train any AI model. We do not use your page content, your uploaded images, your contact information, or your account data to train machine learning models. This applies to our own systems and to any third-party systems we work with.
8. Reporting content
Anyone can report a page using the Report link in its footer. You do not need an account to submit a report. Reports are reviewed by a person. We will not tell you the outcome of your report, and reporting a page does not automatically remove it.
False reports submitted to harm another member may result in action against the reporting account under Section 3.
We aim to review every report within 48 hours. An account with three confirmed reports is suspended: its pages go offline at once, and its page names are released 14 days later unless the suspension is lifted on appeal.
9. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy. We will post the updated version at this address and update the date at the top. Continued use of the service after a change means you accept the updated version. Where a change is material, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you — for example, through a notice in your dashboard.
