Creator participation
Permission is specific, and credit travels with the work.
Creator guidelines protect artists, streamers, musicians, writers, editors, avatar makers, photographers, and event hosts while keeping discovery practical. Public availability does not automatically grant permission to repost, edit, train on, merchandise, or redistribute someone else's work.
Define the permission
Before featuring work, confirm the asset, destination, format, duration, attribution, and whether edits or excerpts are allowed. Permission for one profile or event does not silently extend to unrelated campaigns, downloads, advertising, or future uses.
Make attribution useful
Credit should identify the creator, the type of work, and an approved public destination. Keep watermarks and signatures intact, avoid implying sponsorship, and correct a missing or inaccurate credit promptly when the creator raises it.
Respect collaboration boundaries
Use designated promotion spaces, state whether a request is paid or unpaid, and accept a clear no without pressure. Commissions, recordings, streams, event appearances, and AI-related uses need expectations that every participant understands before work begins.
