Policy for a future beta

The community opens only after the safeguards do

No public posting, accounts, comments, reactions, or file uploads are enabled today. These standards describe the minimum conduct and provenance boundary for a future invitation-only beta; they do not claim that moderation operations already exist.

Current state: planning document

Invitations, identity, file quarantine and scanning, moderation, rights handling, appeals, and incident response must be tested before any community write feature is opened.

01

Community boundary

Respect people

No harassment, threats, stalking, hate, dehumanization, targeted humiliation, or disclosure of another person’s private information.

02

Community boundary

Own the provenance

Post only work you may share. Name authors, source versions, licenses, remixes, AI assistance, and material changes accurately.

03

Community boundary

Show the real status

Separate concept, slicer check, test print, community result, and qualified application. Do not hide failures or imply a rating that does not exist.

04

Community boundary

Do not turn danger into a shortcut

No instructions designed to evade safety controls, access controls, law, inspection, or rights. High-risk weapon, medical, structural, and regulated claims require stricter review or refusal.

05

Community boundary

Protect privacy and minors

Do not post sensitive records, precise private locations, identifying details without permission, or content that exploits or endangers minors.

06

Community boundary

Report with context

Provide the page, version, concern, and relevant evidence. Good-faith reports, corrections, and appeals are part of the system—not retaliation targets.

Future moderation

Human review, notice, and an appeal path.

A future beta should support proportionate action: warning, label, visibility limit, removal, temporary restriction, or permanent restriction. Urgent safety and rights issues may be removed first and reviewed afterward. Creators should receive a reason and a practical appeal route when it is safe and lawful to provide one.

Rights process

Takedown is not a substitute for provenance.

The future service needs a documented notice, counter-notice, repeat-infringer, and record-preservation process appropriate to where it operates. Until that process is staffed, PrintMason will not host public user files.
