Community Standardswhat belongs on a LinkScale link.
These standards set out what is and is not allowed on LinkScale, so the links and landing pages built here stay safe, lawful and respectful.
Purpose and scope

Links, redirects and external distribution
You are responsible for where your links lead and how you share them outside LinkScale. We do not control off-platform distribution, and liability for external misuse rests with you.
Sensitive content and labeling
Label content that could be sensitive or age-restricted where applicable and follow local requirements. We may apply warnings or restrict access where needed.
Enforcement
- We may remove content, disable links, restrict features, or suspend and terminate accounts at our discretion.
- We may preserve and share information with competent authorities where legally required.
- Actions may be taken regardless of intent where harm or risk exists.
Reporting and appeals
If you believe content violates these Standards or our Terms, please report it. Use our abuse report form, or write to us at [email protected]. If a link of yours was disabled and you believe that was a mistake, the appeal route for copyright claims is set out in our DMCA Policy.
Creator responsibilities
Ensure your content complies with all applicable laws and these Standards. Maintain accurate descriptions and avoid misleading claims.
Jurisdictional compliance
Where local laws impose stricter requirements, those rules apply in addition to these Standards.
Updates
We may update these Community Standards from time to time. Continued use of LinkScale constitutes acceptance of the updated Standards.
