By using the Service, you acknowledge that moderation decisions may affect your content or account.
How Moderation Works
Moderation may occur through:
- user reports
- automated moderation tools
- manual review by moderators
Content may be reviewed proactively or in response to reports.
Moderation actions may occur with or without a report.
We may also take moderation actions to comply with applicable laws, regulations, or legal requests.
Automated Moderation
Koreadores may use automated systems to assist with moderation.
These systems may:
- detect potential violations
- hide or remove content
- flag content for review
Automated moderation systems may produce incorrect or incomplete results.
Koreadores is not liable for actions taken based on automated moderation.

Content that violates guidelines or laws may be removed.
Moderators may remove:
- posts
- comments
- profile content
- other user-generated content

Removed content may be stored internally for safety, enforcement, or legal purposes.
