Community Guidelines
These guidelines were last updated on December 17, 2020.
At Zuvvii, our mission is to provide a unique platform for gaming enthusiasts to share short gaming clips whilst allowing others to consume and enjoy the content provided to them. We want to offer those who are passionate about gaming an alternative option to share their content with a gaming focused community whilst providing a safe environment to interact with others.
In addition to our Terms of Service we provide the following guidelines for our community. These guidelines fall under a common sense philosophy and apply to all user generated content and activity on our services. This is considered a living document that we regularly update based on the evolution of the Zuvvii community and service.
To protect the integrity of our community, as the provider of the service, we at Zuvvii reserve the right to suspend any account at any time for any conduct that we determine to be inappropriate or harmful. Such actions may include: removal of content, a strike on the account, and/or suspension of account(s).

Suspension Evasion
All suspensions are binding until expiration or removal upon appeal.

Suspension evasion will not only increase the length of suspension, but may lead to an indefinite suspension.
