Blonde is a worldwide media platform allowing Creators to send and receive SMS text messages and images to and from their Fans directly on their cell phones (no websites). Blonde strives to maintain a safe and brand-friendly platform for Creators and Fans to engage together. Help us foster this diverse and inclusive community by following your Agreement & Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy as well as the following:
Obey the law.
Blonde is a media platform for positive one on one communication between a Creator and Fan. It is a place to follow the law and is NOT a place to:
• Support or praise terrorism, violence, organized crime or hate groups.
• Offer sexual services
• Buy or sell firearms, alcohol, and tobacco products between private individuals • Buy or sell non-medical or pharmaceutical drugs

• Share or post sensitive personal data or others proprietary information.
• Post content that: (i) is illegal under Applicable Law; (ii) violates any third party’s intellectual property rights, including, without limitation, copyrights, trademarks, patents, and trade secrets; (iii) contains libelous, slanderous, inflammatory, obscene, defamatory or violent material, or material constituting an invasion of privacy or misappropriation of publicity rights; (iv) promotes unlawful or illegal goods, services, or activities; (v) contains false, misleading, or deceptive statements, depictions, or sales practices; or (vi) is otherwise objectionable to us in our sole, but reasonable, discretion.
We do our best to remove content that attempts to:
• Trade, co-ordinate the trade of, donate, gift, or ask for non-medical drugs, as well as content that either admits to personal use (unless in the recovery context) or coordinates or promotes the use of non-medical drugs.
• Accounts promoting online gambling, online real money games of skill or online lotteries must get our prior written permission from Blonde before using Blonde.
• Circumvent our zero tolerance when it comes to Cyber-Crime, Bullying, Harassment, Non Consensual Activity, Human Trafficking, Extortion, Child Pornography or sharing any sexual content involving minors or threatening to post intimate images of others.
• Pose or contain credible threats or hate speech, discriminatory language, content that targets private individuals to degrade or shame them, disseminate personal information meant to blackmail or harass someone, and or disseminate repeated unwanted messages
Share only photos and videos that you’ve taken or have the right to share. As always, you must own the content you post/transmit on Blonde. Remember to post authentic content.
Posting of photos and videos for a diverse audience. Creator content for a mature audience must be consented to (without coercion) by all parties in the content and must not harm or include anything that is harmful to any party in any manner including but not limited to: non-consensual pictures or video, illegal, revenge porn, violence or criminal acts, threats of any sort, tarnishing of reputation or extortion, etc. Also, people like to share photos or videos of their children. For safety reasons, there are times when we may remove images that show partially clothed children. Even when this content is shared with good intentions, it could be used by others in unanticipated ways.
Foster meaningful and genuine interactions and name matching. Help us stay free of deceptive practices, scams and spam-free by not artificially opening fake accounts, posting repetitive content (including comments), or repeatedly contacting people for commercial purposes without their consent. Don’t offer money or giveaways of money in exchange for Fans, comments or other engagement. Don’t post content that engages in, promotes, encourages, facilitates, or admits to the offering, solicitation or trade of fake and misleading user reviews or ratings.
You don’t have to use your real name on Blonde, but upon signup we do require Blonde Creators and Fans to provide us with accurate and up to date information and be successfully age and identity verified. Creators names must match their bank account name and Fans names must match the name reflected on their debit or credit card for payments. Don't impersonate others and don't create accounts for the purpose of violating our guidelines or misleading others.
Respect other members of the Blonde community.
Blonde wants to foster a positive, successful, diverse community with dignity and respect for all. In addition to the above prohibited content and actions, we also remove content that contains credible threats or hate speech, discriminatory language, content that targets any individuals to degrade or shame them, share personal information meant to blackmail or harass someone, and post repeated unwanted messages. We do generally allow stronger conversation around people who are featured in the news or have a large public audience due to their profession or chosen activities. But it's never OK to encourage or commit violence or attack or demean anyone based on their race, ethnicity, national origin, sex, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, religious affiliation, disabilities, political beliefs, or diseases. When alleged hate speech is being shared, to challenge it or to raise awareness, let us know at support@blonde.social and we will evaluate it for removal. In those instances, we ask that you express your discovery and intent clearly. Threats of harm to public and personal safety aren't allowed. This includes specific threats of physical harm as well as threats of theft, vandalism, and other financial harm. We carefully review reports of threats and consider many things when determining whether a threat is credible. We request that you treat everyone with respect and dignity.
Maintain our supportive environment by not glorifying self-injury.
The Blonde community cares for each other and is often a place where people facing difficult issues such as eating disorders, cutting, or other kinds of self-injury come together to create awareness or find support. Encouraging or urging people to embrace self-injury is counter to our environment of support, and we’ll remove it or disable accounts if it’s reported to us. We may also remove content identifying victims or survivors of self-injury if the content targets them for attack or humor.
Be thoughtful when posting newsworthy events.
We understand that people may use Blonde to share important and newsworthy events. Some of these issues can involve graphic images. Because so many different people and age groups use Blonde, we may remove videos of intense, graphic violence to make sure Blonde stays appropriate for everyone. We understand that people often share this kind of content to condemn, raise awareness or educate. If you do share content for these reasons, we encourage you to caption your photo with a warning about graphic violence. Sharing graphic images for sadistic pleasure or to glorify violence is never allowed.
Help us keep the community strong by reporting harmful behavior.
Each of us is an important part of the Blonde community. If you see something that you think may violate our guidelines, please report this to us at support@blonde.social We will review these reports and our goal is to work as quickly as possible to remove content that doesn’t meet our guidelines within 7 business days.. Even if you or someone you know doesn’t have a Blonde account, you can still file a report. When you complete the report, try to provide as much information as possible, such as links, usernames, posting time and date, descriptions of the content and screenshot whereby we can find and review it quickly.
You may find content that you don’t like but doesn’t violate our guidelines. If that happens, you can unsubscribe to (as a Fan) or block (as a Creator) the user who posted it. If there's something you don't like in a comment on one of your posts (as a Creator), you can delete that comment.
We may work with law enforcement, including when we believe that there’s risk of physical harm or threat to public safety.
Unfortunately, we don’t control the quality of content, clarity of pictures, briefness or content of any texts or other Creator content, inconsistencies, correctness or inability to meet Fan expectations.
