💫 Our Promise

Leap is built to celebrate dance, creativity, and diversity while keeping users safe.

We do not tolerate:

• Harm or exploitation

• Hate or harassment

• Abuse, bullying, or discrimination

Everyone deserves to move freely both on and off the screen.

 

💡 How We Enforce the Rules

We use a mix of AI tools and human review to keep Leap safe.

If something breaks the rules, we may:

• Remove the content

• Limit certain features

• Give warnings

• Temporarily suspend your account

• Permanently ban repeat or serious offenders

You can appeal moderation decisions if you believe a mistake was made.

 

🔐 1. Safety First

Do not post or share anything that could physically or emotionally harm yourself or others.

This includes:

• Self-harm or suicide content

• Dangerous stunts or challenges without proper safety

• Encouraging others to hurt themselves or someone else

If you or someone you know is in immediate danger, please contact emergency services (999 in the UK) first.

If you’re struggling, you can reach out to:

• 🇬🇧 Samaritans (UK): 116 123

• 🇬🇧 Childline (under 19, UK): 0800 1111

Content that promotes or encourages self-harm or suicide is not allowed on Leap.

 

🚨 1.5 Violence & Graphic Content

Leap is for dance battles, not real fights.

You must not post:

• Real physical fights, assaults, or attacks

• Graphic injuries, blood, or medical trauma

• Footage of accidents or disasters that cause serious harm

If you witness real-world violence, please report it to the police first, then use the Report feature in Leap.

 

🗣️ 2. Respect & Kindness

Leap is a community built on mutual respect.

Not allowed:

• Bullying, shaming, or targeted harassment

• Threats or intimidation

• Insults about someone’s body, skills, or identity

Be kind in comments, DMs, duets, and reactions.
If you wouldn’t say it to someone’s face, don’t say it on Leap.

 

💬 2.5 Privacy & Personal Information

Protect your privacy and others’.

You must not share anyone’s private information without their consent, including:

• Phone numbers, email addresses

• Home or work addresses

• Private messages or DMs

• Financial information

• Location details that identify where someone lives, works, or studies

Doxxing (sharing private information to harass or intimidate someone) can lead to immediate account suspension or ban.

Do not post private images or videos of others without their permission.

 

🎭 2.6 Impersonation & Fake Accounts

You must not:

• Pretend to be another person, creator, brand, or Leap staff

• Use fake names or misleading bios to deceive others

• Create multiple accounts to evade a ban or target someone

Parody or fan accounts should be clearly labelled as such.

 

🚫 3. Nudity & Sexually Suggestive Content

Leap includes young users, so we apply strict standards.

Not allowed:

• Nudity or partial nudity intended to arouse

• Sexual acts or pornography

• Sexualised dancing involving minors

• Fetish content or explicit sexual gestures

Dance that is artistic, cultural, or educational (e.g. ballet, samba, body movement workshops) is welcome when presented respectfully and in age-appropriate clothing and choreography.

Sexually suggestive content is handled under our Allusion & Sexually Suggestive Language (ANSA) policy.

 

⚠️ 3.5 Illegal & Dangerous Activities

You must not promote, glorify, or show:

• Illegal drug use

• Underage drinking or alcohol abuse

• Weapons used to threaten, intimidate, or harm

• Dangerous stunts without proper safety measures

• Criminal behaviour (theft, vandalism, trespassing, etc.)

Content showing legal, responsible adult behaviour (e.g. a glass of wine at dinner) is generally allowed.

Educational or harm-reduction content about drugs or alcohol is allowed if it’s clearly framed as educational and not promotional.

 

🎵 4. Copyright & Originality

We respect artists, choreographers, and musicians and we expect you to do the same.

Please:

• Only upload content you created or have permission to use

• Credit original creators where appropriate

• Avoid reposting full videos from other creators without transformation

Music, choreography, and performance clips must follow our Copyright & Originality Policy.

If you believe your work was used without permission, you can file a copyright report through our support channels.

 

💬 5. Honest & Authorised Content

Only post content that is honest, safe, and authentic.

Not allowed:

• Fake giveaways, scams, or phishing

• Fake events or job offers

• Health misinformation that may cause harm

• Misleading claims about products, services, or opportunities

Promotions & Monetisation

Any monetisation, sponsorship, or promotional content must follow our Advertising & Partnerships rules and UK advertising standards.

This includes:

• Selling classes, tickets, products, or services

• Affiliate links or discount codes

• Brand mentions or sponsored choreography

Sponsored or paid content must be clearly labelled (e.g. “#ad”, “Paid partnership”) and approved by Leap.

 

📢 5.5 Harmful Misinformation

You must not spread dangerous false information, including:

• Health misinformation that could cause physical harm

• False emergency alerts or public safety claims

• Conspiracy theories that target individuals or groups

Opinions, debate, and artistic expression are welcome, but deliberate misinformation that puts people at risk is not.

 

⚖️ 6. Fair Play & Integrity

To keep Leap fair, you must not:

• Use bots, scripts, or automation to gain views, likes, or followers

• Hack or attempt to gain unauthorised access to any account or system

• Interfere with how Leap works or how others use it

If you find a bug or issue, report it, don’t exploit it.

 

🤝 6.5 Coordinated Harassment & Brigading

You must not:

• Organise or encourage groups to attack, mass-report, or harass someone

• Tell your followers to “go after” a specific user

Disagreement and critique are okay.
Coordinated attacks are not.

 

🧒 7. Protecting Young Users

Leap is for users 13+, but we apply extra protection to minors.

Strictly forbidden:

• Contacting under-18 users for personal, romantic, or sexual reasons

• Grooming, sexual comments, or flirty messages directed at minors

• Asking minors for personal contact info, images, or private calls

• Sharing minors’ school names, addresses, schedules, or personal details

If you see concerning behaviour, report it immediately.

 

🐾 7.5 Animal Welfare

Animals should be treated with respect and care.

Not allowed:

• Animal abuse, neglect, or cruelty

• Forcing animals into unsafe or distressing situations for content

If you see animal abuse, report it to the relevant authorities and to Leap.

We celebrate global dance cultures — samba, street, ballet, bhangra, and more.

Please:

• Avoid mocking or disrespecting cultural traditions
