        </p>

        <ul>
            <li>

            <li>
                <strong>July 27 '23:</strong> highlighted the rule on hate speech in the Summary and added clarification

            </li>
        </ul>

        <h1>General Code of Conduct</h1>

        <p>
            This section applies generally across every corner of this website, including but
            not limited to: the text you write on your profile page, the messages you send to
            other members, the comments you leave on their photos, and the messages you post
            in the forums.
        </p>

        <h3>Real People Only!</h3>

        <p>
            This website is for <strong>real</strong> nudists and exhibitionists who are not
            afraid to show their face and verify themselves as being a real person.
        </p>

        <p>
            You do NOT need to include your face and nude body in a picture together; but a
            picture of your face must be somewhere on your profile page, including as your
            default profile picture.
        </p>

        <p>
            The following are the <strong>bare minimum requirements</strong> for members of
            this website:
        </p>

        <ul>
            <li>You must <strong>have a face picture</strong> as your default profile photo.</li>
            <li>
                You must <strong>upload a "verification selfie"</strong> which includes your
                face and depicts you holding a hand-written note on paper to verify that
                you're a real person.
            </li>
        </ul>

        <p>
            Your verification photo will only be seen by site administrators and will not
            appear on your profile page.
        </p>

        <p>
            Having a nude pic on your profile is optional, but encouraged. You are on a nudist
            website after all, and other members will feel more comfortable if you join in!
        </p>

        <h3 id="hateful-content">Hateful Content &amp; Bullying</h3>

        <p>
            This website will NOT tolerate hateful content against any minority group, including
            but not limited to: racism, homophobia, transphobia, sexism, xenophobia, antisemitism,
            body shaming, sex shaming, or generally being mean to people (or writing mean things
            about people) on matters of their age, sex, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation,
            religion, color of their skin, racial or ethnic background, shape of their body, or
            other such characteristics.
        </p>

        <p>
            Members caught engaging in such behaviors will be removed from the community.
        </p>

        <h3 id="direct-messages">Direct Messages</h3>

        <p>
            <span class="tag is-success">NEW: July 27 2023</span>
        </p>

        <p>
            The global website rules also apply to the contents of your Direct Messages. See also the
            <a href="/privacy#direct-messages">Privacy Policy on DMs</a>. We respect your privacy and
            don't snoop on your DMs without just cause, but we retain the ability to do so in case of

        <p>

            Direct Messages, whether on the main website or the chat room:
        </p>

        <ul>
            <li>
                <a href="#hateful-content">Hate speech</a> and bullying is NOT tolerated anywhere on the
                website, including in Direct Messages.
            </li>
            <li>
                Do not share hyperlink URLs to websites that facilitate or contain content or activities
                considered to be illegal in the United States or California where this web server resides.
            </li>
            <li>
                Do not share images on the chat room DMs that would otherwise get you banned from the
                site if you posted it there.
            </li>
        </ul>

        <p>
            Do not fall under the illusion that your Direct Messages (whether on the website or chat room)
            are secure and encrypted. See the <a href="/privacy#direct-messages">Privacy Policy on DMs</a>
            for more information.

        <h3>Child Exploitation</h3>

        <p>
            <span class="tag is-success">NEW: July 27 2023</span>
        </p>

        <p>
            Under our <a href="#acceptable-photo-policy">Acceptable Photo Policy</a> we state that there are to
            be <a href="#no-pictures-of-children">NO pictures of children</a> (even clothed) allowed on this
            website AT ALL. This section additionally covers non-photo content on the website, including
            conversations taking place in Direct Messages (whether on the main website or chat room), Forum
            posts or anywhere else that messages can be written.
        </p>

        <p>
            It is <strong>prohibited</strong> to use {{PrettyTitle}}'s website to facilitate or have conversations
            about illegal activity (as known to the United States) regarding child sexual abuse (defined in the US
            as <em>ANY</em> sexual contact between a child under the age of consent, usually 18 years old, with an
            adult older than 18 years old). Do NOT discuss
            past or future crimes in violation of the law in this regard. If you have received a DM from a member
            which ventures into this topic, please <a href="/contact?intent=report">report them</a> to the admins
            or directly contact the <a href="https://www.missingkids.org">National Center for Missing &amp; Exploited Children</a>.
        </p>

        <p>
            The following are a non-exhaustive list of prohibited activities that may result in your {{PrettyTitle}}
            account being banned and/or reported to the relevant law enforcement agency:
        </p>

        <ul>
            <li>
                Dropping "hints" on your profile page about pedophilia. We don't want to see any 'dog whistle' hints
                on your profile page advertising your children or your interest in children. Note: a listing of known
                dog whistles is intentionally withheld here. Trust that we have a long list of known dog whistles.
            </li>
            <li>
                Having conversations over Direct Message (whether on the main website or the chat room) of a criminal
                nature in regards to the law in the United States.
            </li>
            <li>
                Advertising to people that they can come over and 'hang out naked' with your nudist family including
                your children.
            </li>
            <li>
                Attempting to bend or circumvent detection or press on the rules of this website in this regard.
            </li>
        </ul>

        <p>
            As a good general rule of thumb: <strong>if you have children, don't talk about them</strong> here.
        </p>

        <h1 id="acceptable-photo-policy">Acceptable Photo Policy</h1>

        <h3>All photos uploaded to your profile page must contain YOU in them</h3>

        <p>
            Your profile page is about <em>you</em> and all photos you upload to it must be
            pictures of <em>you</em>.
        </p>

        <p>
            If your pictures also include other people, please be sure that you have the
            consent of all pictured individuals to upload it to your profile page.
        </p>

        <p>
            You do not have to include your face in all your pictures! Many nudists are not
            comfortable showing their face in their nudes and will post "torso shots" or
            censor their face -- that's OK! You only need one face picture to use as your
            default profile pic - it can be a clothed, G-rated selfie!
        </p>

        <h4 id="policy-on-other-people-appearing-in-your-photos">Policy on other people appearing in your photos</h4>

        <p>
            <span class="tag is-success">NEW: March 8 2023</span>
        </p>

        <p>
            It can be acceptable to post a photo that includes yourself <em>and</em> another
            person, but please see the following rules:
        </p>

        <ul>
            <li>Be sure you have the permission of all people in your photo before you upload it.</li>
            <li>
                You and the other people must be in <strong>the same</strong> photo together:
                "split frame" photos where you just combine two wholly separate pictures together
                into one are not allowed! This is because it's not clear whether you even <em>know</em>
                the other person pictured or if you had their permission to post it; and to keep on top
                of avoiding any "exposure blogs" where someone might post pictures of randoms so long as
                they also composite their own pic next to it.
            </li>
        </ul>

        <h3>Normal Nudes &amp; Non-Explicit Content</h3>

        <p>
            This is a website for nudists and so "normal nudes" are expected and are the default.
            Not all nudists want to see sexually explicit material. You MAY upload sexually
            explicit content but you are expected to mark such photos as "Explicit" so that
            nudists who don't want to see them can filter them out (which is the default setting).
        </p>

        <p>
            You do not need to tag your photo as "Explicit" for simply containing non-sexual nudity.
            Examples of "normal nudes" and non-sexual nudity include, but are not limited to:
        </p>

        <ul>
            <li>Full body nude photos where the focus of the picture is NOT on the genitalia.</li>
            <li>A flaccid (non-erect) penis, provided it is NOT the focus of the picture.</li>
            <li>
                Photos taken at nude beaches, nude campgrounds, or other nudist events in
                a non-sexual context.
            </li>
            <li>
                Photos of nude gardening or other activities done in the buff.
            </li>
            <li>
                Butt pics are OK: full body nudes taken from behind that show your butt are
                considered "normal nudes" unless your butt is the sole focus of the picture.
            </li>
        </ul>

        <p>
            Basically, as long as the photo doesn't fall under the "Explicit Photos &amp; Sexual Content"
            examples listed below, you do not need to tag your picture as "Explicit."
        </p>

        <h3>Explicit Photos &amp; Sexual Content</h3>

        <p>
            Explicit photos and sexual content ("exhibitionist photos") are permitted on this website
            <em>but</em> you agree to <strong>tag such photos as "Explicit"</strong> in their settings
            when you upload them.
        </p>

        <p>
            A photo is considered "explicit" if it depicts <em>any</em> of the following features:
        </p>

        <ul>
            <li>
                A close-up view of genitalia or where the genitals are the central focus of the picture.
            </li>
            <li>An erect penis if the subject has one, especially if they are grabbing it.</li>
            <li>
                "Spread eagle" pictures that clearly and especially show intimate body parts such
                as butt holes or vulvae.
            </li>
            <li>
                A depiction of a sexual act, including but not limited to: masturbation, oral sex,
                anal or vaginal penetration, humping, or any content intended to sexually arouse the
                viewer. If it can be reasonably considered to be "porn" it is an explicit photo.
            </li>
            <li>
                Usage of a sex toy or sexual device, including but not limited to: dildos, fleshlights
                or fleshjacks, "pocket pussies," or things of that nature. <strong>Exceptions:</strong>
                certain mild lifestyle devices such as cock rings or chastity cages may be OK (and not
                require tagging as "Explicit") if the rest of the photo is framed in a non-sexual context.
            </li>
        </ul>

        <h3>Prohibited Content</h3>

        <p>
            Even in the context of "Explicit Photos," the following sorts of content is
            <strong class="has-text-danger">strictly prohibited:</strong>
        </p>

        <ul>
            <li>
                You may NOT upload any content that is considered to be illegal in the United States or
                in any of the 50 States therein. This includes, but is not limited to: bestiality (or
                sexual acts involving animals), child sexually abusive material (CSAM), ANY nude photo
                depicting a minor person under the age of 18, ANY depictions or fantasies involving rape or
                sexual violence, ANY nude or sexual content of another person uploaded without their
                consent ("revenge porn"), ANY depiction of violence or graphical gore (sexual or otherwise),
                or other unlawful content.
            </li>
            <li>
                You may NOT upload sexual material depicting extreme or commonly offensive content
                including, but not limited to: watersports (peeing onto or into another person), scat
                (any depiction of obviously apparent fecal matter), prolapsed rectum, anal fisting,
                blood play, or other such content that an average person would consider to be shocking
                or revolting.
            </li>
        </ul>

        <h3 id="no-pictures-of-children">NO pictures of children, period!</h3>

        <p>
            This is an adult website and all people depicted on it MUST be of legal age (18 years or
            older). Do not upload any picture that includes a minor -- clothed or otherwise.
        </p>
