Content & Reporting Policy

Version 0.1enEffective 19. Oktober 2026

Working draft — not approved for publication. This is an unofficial English translation of the German text. It has not been reviewed by qualified legal counsel for the markets PumpingbuddY operates in, and it is not the legally binding version. It stays a draft until the open confirmation fields are resolved and that review has happened.

What can be reported

Profiles, profile pictures, banners, shared results, group content and behaviour in competition.

Reasons

Harassment · Hate or discrimination · Threats · Privacy · Impersonation · Copyright · Inappropriate content · Cheating or score manipulation · Spam or scam · Other

How to report

Use the report function on the content itself, or the report form on this page. Every report gets its own reference number so it can be followed up.

Reporting an intellectual property infringement

Use the form on this page. A report asks for the reporter, the protected work, the location of the content on PumpingbuddY, the reason and the reporter's relationship to the rights holder.

Required information: name, email address, protected work, affected content ID or URL, reason, rights holder or authority, and supporting information.

What happens next

  1. The report is stored with its reference and appears in the moderation centre.
  2. A person reviews it. Nothing is deleted automatically because of a report.
  3. The outcome is recorded: no action, content removed, visibility restricted, score corrected, warning, suspension.

How a decision can be reviewed

If a decision affects you, you can request a review. The request is stored with the decision and looked at by a person.

Your own content

If your content was removed you are told why, and you can ask for the decision to be reviewed.

Privacy in reports

Reports are handled confidentially. The reporter's details are used only to review the report and are not passed on to the reported person.

Misusing reports

Repeatedly unfounded reports can themselves lead to restrictions.

Report content

Reports filed here come from a signed-in account, so the sender is verified and the reference stays tied to that account. Rights holders and reporters without an account are not turned away: send the same details by e-mail and it is handled the same way.
