Indee Content & Moderation Policy
Last updated: September 2025
Indee exists to give sound practitioners a safe, professional, and independent home for their work. To protect creators, listeners, and our partners (including Stripe), all content on Indee must follow these rules.
The Short Version
- Be original — only upload what you made or have rights to.
- Be honest — describe your work truthfully, don't mislead people.
- Be respectful — no hate, harassment, or exploitation.
- No restricted stuff — adult content, drugs, gambling, scams, or anything Stripe bans.
- No playing doctor — you can share wellness and spiritual practices, but don't claim to diagnose, treat, or cure medical conditions.
- Follow the law — where you live and where your audience is.
If you break these rules, your content or account may be removed.
1. Ownership & Responsibility
- You own your work and are fully responsible for what you publish.
- You must hold all necessary rights or licenses for the content you upload.
- You may be asked to provide proof of rights or licenses if requested.
