Wateeno is built on respect, creativity, and positive interactions. These guidelines help ensure our community remains a welcoming space for everyone.
Be Respectful
Treat others with kindness and respect
Celebrate diversity and different perspectives
Disagree constructively without personal attacks
Respect others' privacy and boundaries
Create Authentic Content
Share original content or give proper credit
Be genuine and authentic in your interactions
Don't impersonate others or spread misinformation

No Impersonation
Do not create accounts that impersonate celebrities, public figures, or brands
Usernames using celebrity names or protected identities are not allowed
Fan accounts must be clearly labeled as "Fan Account" in the username or bio
Parody accounts must be clearly labeled as "Parody" in the username or bio
Accounts impersonating celebrities may be deleted without warning due to trademark and publicity rights
This includes variations of celebrity names designed to deceive (e.g., adding numbers or underscores)
Wateeno keeps a reserved-usernames list covering trademarks, public figures, and platform-system handles.
If you're the rightful owner of a reserved name, email support@wateeno.com
with proof of ownership — see the Support page for what to include.

Chats and Messaging
Wateeno chats let you send text, voice notes, photos, videos, and Rings to other users. Chats are
ephemeral by design — see our Terms of Use and
Privacy Policy for the full retention rules. Ephemeral does not mean
unaccountable: the same community standards apply in chat as in public Rings.
No harassment, threats, or hate speech in direct messages — including voice notes
and disappearing media.
No unsolicited sexual content, nudity, or explicit material, including in
disappearing photos and videos.
No solicitation of minors. Any attempt to contact a minor inappropriately is
grounds for immediate permanent ban and may be reported to law enforcement.
Don't use chat to spam, phish, or distribute scam links.
Recording or screenshotting another user's chat media without consent may violate their privacy and
local laws. Wateeno notifies the sender when a screenshot is detected on supported devices.
Use the Block tool to stop someone from messaging you, or
Restrict to limit their access without notifying them. Both are available from a
user's profile menu.
You can report a problematic chat or sender from the conversation menu — the report goes to
Wateeno's moderation team along with the relevant context.
Prohibited Content
Nudity or sexually explicit content
Violence or graphic imagery
Illegal activities or dangerous behavior
Hate speech or discriminatory content
Self-harm or suicide-related content
Sale of regulated goods (drugs, weapons, etc.)
Consequences
