Community Guidelines

Treat every profile as if it belonged to a colleague at your studio. Behind each demo there is someone taking a real creative risk. Read carefully, respond honestly, and remember that a rough idea today can become someone’s favourite song next year.

• Constructive feedback that helps the other person improve their work, not just praise or dismiss it.
• Respectful collaboration — respond to messages, honour agreements, and communicate when something changes.
• Honesty about your skills, experience, availability, and expectations.
• Giving credit where credit is due, including co-writers, producers, and featured performers.
• Professional conduct with matches, even when a collaboration does not work out.

The following behaviours will lead to warnings, suspension, or removal:

• Harassment, bullying, threats, or personal attacks.
• Hate speech or discrimination based on race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, disability, gender, sexual orientation, or any other protected characteristic.
• Sexual harassment, unwanted advances, or sexual content involving minors.
• Spam, unsolicited promotion, or mass-messaging users outside the intended flow of the platform.
• Scams, fraudulent offers, or false claims of representation (labels, agents, publishers).
• Impersonation of another artist, brand, or team.
• Uploading content you do not have the rights to share.
• Uploading illegal content, or content that promotes violence, self-harm, or exploitation.
• Malware, viruses, or files intended to harm other users’ devices or accounts.

When you leave feedback, be specific and kind. Point to what is working before you suggest changes. Focus on the song, the arrangement, or the performance — not on the person. If a track is not for you, it is completely fine to say so politely and move on.

• Agree on roles, credit, and splits early — in writing whenever possible.
• Do not release or distribute a shared work without permission from every contributor.
• If plans change, tell your collaborators as soon as you can.
• If a collaboration ends, do so cleanly: return files, remove drafts you no longer have rights to, and move on with goodwill.

If someone violates these guidelines, please report them from within Verse or by writing to safety@verse.app. We review every report and act quickly. Retaliation against anyone who reports in good faith is itself a violation.

Depending on the severity and context, we may warn a user, remove content, pause an account, restrict features, or permanently ban an account. Serious violations — such as threats, exploitation of minors, or coordinated abuse — will lead to immediate removal and, where appropriate, reports to the authorities.

We may update these guidelines as the community evolves. Material changes will be announced before they take effect. The date at the top of the page reflects the most recent revision.
