Fiverr's Community Standards

Objectionable Content and User Safety

Adult Content and Sexual Activity

Fiverr prohibits adult and sexually-explicit content of any kind. If detected or reported, such content will be removed and participants may be permanently suspended from the marketplace. Our policies apply to all user-generated content (UGC)—including Gigs, deliveries, portfolios, Gig videos, etc., and applies to any content depicting nudity, or sexually-graphic, violent, or humiliating actions or scenes. This includes AI-generated photographic or animated content.

Do not offer, agree to provide, or ask for:

• Nude or adult-related images or videos

• Sex or sexual partners

• Sex chats or sexual conversations

• Non-consensual content of any kind 

• Sextortion practices (ex. threatening to share private sexual content for blackmail)

• Child/or child-like sexual content

• Sexual violence or denigration 

• Sexually charged modeling

• The execution of fetish scenarios

• Content that depicts explicit sexual activity, unless the conditions for “documentary exception,” listed below, are met.

Any of the above, whether real or AI-generated, are prohibited.

Sexually-explicit content featuring minors and content that seeks to sexually exploit minors—including AI-generated content—is strictly prohibited on Fiverr. This content, legally referred to as Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM), will be immediately reported, along with those who post (users who offer, agree to provide, or ask for) such content to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, who work with global law enforcement agencies.

Fiverr may use broad discretion when removing content that includes or depicts minors. User accounts involved in violation of this policy can be permanently suspended.   

Documentary Exception

Fiverr will allow nudity when the primary purpose is educational, scientific, or artistic, and it isn't gratuitous. For example, a video edit ordered by a midwife depicting proper breastfeeding technique would be appropriate, while creating a video with clips from the same film but used out of context for the purpose of sexual gratification, would not. Out-of-context nudity from indigenous communities, protests, medical procedures, childbirth, artistic performances, breastfeeding or like, may not meet our documentary exception. 

Hate Speech and Discrimination

Hate Speech

Fiverr defines hate speech as content which is intended to incite violence or hatred against a person or group of people, based on their real or perceived characteristics, which may include race, skin color, ethnicity, sexual identity, gender identity, marital status, religion, age, or disability.

Hate speech may also appear in the form of threatening, derogatory, and dehumanizing language, usage of ethnic or racial slurs, or as content that glorifies or supports hateful narratives and behavior. 

Fiverr is committed to moving swiftly and decisively to investigate conduct that has been flagged and/or reported to us as hate speech, and will respond in a manner that is consistent with both our Terms of Service and the values of the company. We take hate speech violations very seriously, and may exercise broad discretion when taking action against any users or content that violate this policy.

Do not:

• Use violent and/or dehumanizing speech against a person or group of people based on their real or perceived race, ethnicity, skin color, sexual identity, gender identity, marital status, religion, age, or disability

• Use ethnic or racial slurs

• Use hate speech towards another community member(s), group of people, Fiverr’s Customer Support representatives, or Fiverr as a company

• Offer, agree to provide, or ask for content related to hate speech

• Express support or glorify hate groups, its members, their actions, or any of their shared ideologies 

• Upload or share any content on the Fiverr platform (including but not limited to a profile page, Gig description, profession page, portfolio project, forum thread, message, brief, etc.) which depicts hate imagery, including hate symbols related to these groups like swastikas, hand symbols, or numbers known to reference hateful or discriminatory ideologies. 

We do allow users to offer or ask for related content that is intended to contribute to:

• The research or raise awareness of hate speech

• The prevention of hate speech practices

Discrimination

Fiverr considers any unfair or unequal treatment of a person or group of people based on real or perceived characteristics, such as race, skin color, ethnicity, sexual identity, gender identity, marital status, religion, age, or disability, to be discrimination.

Similarly, if individual traits or characteristics unrelated to the service influence preferential treatment that potentially deprives others of opportunities on the platform, this preference could also be seen as discriminatory. 

Do not:

• Express unwillingness to interact and/or work with a person or a group of people based on real or perceived characteristics, such as race, skin color, ethnicity, sexual identity, gender identity, marital status, religion, age, or disability 

• Offer, agree to provide, or ask for any content that expresses or supports discriminatory ideas, groups who espouse these ideas, members of such groups, or any actions which share and glorify such ideologies 

Should you encounter behavior or content that appears to violate this policy, please report it. Fiverr will investigate claims of discrimination on a case-by-case basis, and accounts involved in violation of this policy might be permanently suspended.

Harassment and Abusive Conduct 

Fiverr prohibits any and all behavior and/or communication on the platform that is inappropriate and could be considered harassment. This includes, but is not limited to:

• Bullying

• Sexual advances

• Offensive comments/conduct

• Discrimination based on real or perceived characteristics, including race, skin color, ethnicity, sexual identity, gender identity, marital status, religion, age, or disability

When communicating on Fiverr, do not:

• Solicit any sexual interaction

• Ask inappropriate personal questions

• Make sexual advances or sexual innuendos

• Use profane, lewd, or derogatory terms

• Use offensive or culturally inappropriate/insensitive language 

• Distribute harassing or disturbing materials 

Additionally, freelancers are strictly prohibited from disclosing clients' data, including any personal data, to third parties (unless agreed otherwise with the client). Any breach of confidentiality or privacy may lead to the permanent suspension of accounts involved.

Should you encounter behavior that appears to violate this policy, please report it.  

Self-Harm and Suicide 

At Fiverr, we care deeply about the safety of our community. To that end, users should not offer, agree to provide, or ask for any content that portrays, glorifies, or promotes suicide and/or other acts of self-harm, including eating disorders.

If someone you're communicating with expresses suicidal thoughts or is engaging in any form of self-harm, we encourage you to contact local authorities immediately and report this.  

If you are going through an emotionally-challenging time or struggling with thoughts of suicide or self-harm, we urge you to seek immediate assistance.
