Community Guidelines

1. Our Mission

TokeHead is a cannabis culture community built for adults 21 and older. Our goal is simple: give the cannabis community a real home — one that isn't fighting an algorithm designed to bury it.

We're here for all of it. The wellness side, the recreational side, the creative side, the business side, the science side, the lifestyle side. Growers and dispensary owners. Patients and recreational users. Chefs, artists, musicians, athletes. People who are canna-curious and people who've been in the culture for decades.

Cannabis culture is rich, diverse, and long overdue for a platform that treats it that way. That's what we're building. These guidelines exist to make sure it stays that way — welcoming, safe, and genuinely excellent — for everyone here.

2. The Golden Rules

Everything else in these guidelines flows from five core rules. If you remember nothing else, remember these.

🔞

Be 21+ and keep it that way

No minors on the platform. No content that appeals to minors or could be accessed by them. Age verification is required and enforced.

⚖️

Keep it legal

No facilitating illegal cannabis sales. No sourcing requests. No brokering transactions. Legal consumption and culture content: yes. Illegal marketplace behavior: never.

✅

Be real

Be who you say you are. No impersonating other people or brands. No fake accounts. No bot behavior or automated engagement manipulation.

🤝

Be respectful

Disagree, debate, be direct — but no harassment, no targeted abuse, no hate speech. Treat people like people.

©️

Own your content

Only post what you made or have the rights to post. Respect copyright. Don't repost other people's work without permission.

3. What's Allowed

This is a cannabis platform. Cannabis content is the point. Here's the full range of what's welcome here:

Cannabis culture content — lifestyle, art, music, food, fashion, wellness, and everything in between
Strain reviews, dispensary visits, and product experiences (no sales, just reviews)
Home cultivation content where legal in your jurisdiction
CBD, hemp, and wellness content
Live streaming — cannabis consumption, lifestyle, educational content, Q&A, events
Edibles, recipes, and cooking with cannabis
Adult content in designated age-gated areas (TokeHead Blue subscribers only)
Cannabis science, research, policy, and advocacy discussion
Business content — dispensaries, brands, licensed products, industry news
Comedy, memes, satire, and cannabis culture humor
Medical cannabis discussion, patient stories (no diagnosing or prescribing)
Cannabis history, documentaries, retrospectives, and culture pieces

4. What's Not Allowed

Some things have no place here. These are firm lines. Violations may result in immediate account termination and, where required by law, reports to law enforcement.

Sales, sourcing, or brokering of cannabis, controlled substances, or any illegal goods or services
Any content involving minors — including any depictions, references, or content that could appeal to or be accessed by anyone under 21
Non-consensual explicit content of any kind
Doxxing — sharing someone's personal information (address, phone, workplace, etc.) without their consent
Harassment, threats, stalking, or coordinated targeting of individuals
Hate speech based on race, ethnicity, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, national origin, or disability
Spam, bot behavior, fake accounts, or artificial engagement manipulation
Copyright infringement — posting music, video, images, or other content you don't own or have rights to
Scams, fraud, phishing, or impersonating another person or brand
Content promoting, glorifying, or instructing in violence or self-harm
Deepfakes or synthetic media depicting real people without their explicit consent
Coordinated inauthentic behavior — fake personas, astroturfing, or influence operations

Zero tolerance: Child sexual abuse material (CSAM) results in immediate permanent termination and mandatory reporting to NCMEC and law enforcement. There are no warnings, no appeals.

5. Live Streaming Rules

Live streaming is one of the best parts of TokeHead. To keep it great for everyone, streamers have a few extra responsibilities on top of the general guidelines:

All streamers must be 21+ and complete age verification before going live
Do not stream while operating any vehicle, machinery, or in any situation where impairment creates risk to yourself or others
Do not use pressure tactics to solicit gifts — no guilt-tripping, threatening to end streams unless gifts are sent, or creating artificial urgency
Streams with more than 50 concurrent viewers should have a designated moderator active
Do not artificially inflate viewer counts, use view bots, or manipulate stream metrics
On-screen guests (physical or virtual) must also be 21+ verified
Stream titles and thumbnails must accurately represent stream content — no bait-and-switch
Sexual content is only permitted in designated TokeHead Blue streams with proper gating enabled

6. Gifting & Sparks Rules

Sparks are TokeHead's gifting system — a way for the community to directly support creators they love. To keep the system fair and trustworthy:

No refund fraud or chargeback abuse — attempting to reverse legitimate gift transactions will result in account suspension
Creators may not coerce, pressure, or manipulate viewers into sending gifts
No coordinated gifting rings — artificially inflating a creator's gift revenue through coordinated transactions is prohibited and may constitute fraud
Creators cannot promise, guarantee, or imply specific returns or rewards in exchange for gifts
Gifts are a voluntary expression of appreciation — they are not payments for services or goods
Attempting to circumvent TokeHead's gifting system through off-platform transactions to avoid revenue sharing is a violation of these guidelines and our Terms of Service

7. Creator Monetization Standards

TokeHead creators can earn through subscriptions, gifting, and other monetization features. With that comes responsibility to your subscribers and audience:

Accurately represent what subscribers and supporters receive — no misleading descriptions of subscription tiers or perks
No fake scarcity tactics, countdown timers that reset, or otherwise deceptive promotional practices
TokeHead Creator ($9.99/mo with 60% gift revenue share) applies while your subscription remains active
Revenue share percentages and platform fees are governed by the current Terms of Service and may be updated with reasonable advance notice
Creators are responsible for their own tax obligations on earnings received through the platform
Do not use subscription content promises to solicit payment for content you don't deliver

8. Enforcement

We take these guidelines seriously. When something violates them, here's how we respond:

Warning

First minor offense A notice explaining what was violated and what the expectation is. Documented on your account.

Removal

Any violation of these guidelines Content that violates these guidelines will be removed, with or without prior warning depending on severity.

Suspension

Repeated or serious violations Temporary loss of posting, streaming, or full account access. Duration based on severity and history.

Permanent Ban

Law Enforcement

Note: We reserve the right to act without prior warning for severe violations. We are not required to provide detailed explanations for enforcement decisions involving illegal content or ongoing investigations.

9. Reporting

See something that violates these guidelines? Please report it. Your reports keep this community safe.

How to report:

→ Use the flag icon on any post, comment, profile, or live stream

→ Email us at support@tokehead.com for more complex issues

→ We review all reports within 72 hours (urgent safety issues are prioritized)

→ We do not share reporter identity with the reported party

10. Appeals

We try to get enforcement decisions right, but we know we won't always. If you believe your content was removed or your account was actioned in error, you have the right to appeal.

Email support@tokehead.com with "Appeal" in the subject line.

Include: your username, the content or action in question, and why you believe it was made in error. We review appeals within 7 business days and will respond with our decision.

Note: Appeals are not available for permanent bans related to CSAM, credible threats of violence, or other zero-tolerance violations.

11. Changes to These Guidelines

TokeHead is a growing platform and these guidelines will grow with it. We update them as the community evolves, new features launch, and new situations arise.

We'll announce significant changes in-app with advance notice. The "last updated" date at the top of this page always reflects the most current version. Continued use of TokeHead after changes take effect means you accept the updated guidelines.

If you ever have questions about what's allowed or how these guidelines apply to something specific, just ask: support@tokehead.com.
