Community Guidelines & Report Abuse

MindWiki is built around private vaults. The user-generated content (UGC) surface is intentionally small. Where UGC exists, this document covers it.

Private vault content (default)

The vast majority of MindWiki content is private to its owner. The iOS app, the macOS app, and MindWiki Cloud all default to private storage. Nobody else — including MindWiki staff in the course of ordinary operations — can read your private vault.

Shared resources

• Page sharing — you can choose to share a specific page with another MindWiki user or with the public via a link. Shared pages display the originating account; recipients see the shared content.
• Public profiles (where opted in) — future surface. Profiles are off by default.
• MCP-shared scopes — when you grant an AI agent or external tool an MCP scope, the recipient can read and / or write into your vault. You are the one who can act abusively in that context; see your own responsibilities in the Acceptable Use Policy.
• Capture email address— incoming- only inbox into your private vault. Senders to your capture address aren't exposed to other users.

If you encounter someone else's MindWiki content (a shared page, an embedded clip, a public profile), this Community Guidelines document tells you what is and isn't allowed and how to report problems.

The same rules in the Acceptable Use Policy apply to shared content. Specifically, do not share content that:

• Sexually exploits or endangers minors (CSAM). Reported to NCMEC and law enforcement; account termination is immediate and non-appealable.
• Promotes violence, terrorism, or self-harm; or contains credible threats against identifiable people.
• Harasses, dehumanizes, or targets a person based on protected characteristics (race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, etc.).
• Includes non-consensual intimate imagery (so-called "revenge porn" or deepfakes) of an identifiable person.
• Discloses another person's home address, work address, phone number, government ID, financial account numbers, or medical records without consent (doxxing).
• Impersonates another person or entity in a manner designed to deceive.
• Distributes malware, exploit code, stolen credentials, or phishing kits.
• Infringes intellectual property at scale (see Copyright / IP Takedown).
• Promotes fraud, scams, or counterfeit goods.

Sharing surfaces are not a venue for spam, bulk promotional content, paid endorsements without disclosure, or any content designed to drive users off- platform via deceptive means.

We accept reports from anyone — you don't need a MindWiki account to report content shared with you or visible to the public.

From inside the apps

• iOS / macOS— when viewing a shared page that came from another account, open the overflow menu (…) and select Report. Choose a reason and submit. Your report goes directly to our abuse queue.
• MindWiki Cloud— same flow: overflow menu → Report.
• Block user — from the same overflow menu, choose Block. Blocked users can't share new content with you or interact with your shared content.

By email

Email abuse@mindwiki.io with:

• The link or identifier of the offending content (if you can copy it), or a screenshot.
• Which guideline you believe was violated.
• When you encountered it.
• Any context that helps us evaluate (for example, if you're the subject of doxxed information).

For specific categories

• Child safety / CSAM — mark the subject line URGENT CSAM. We move immediately and report to NCMEC. You may also report directly at report.cybertip.org or call 1-800-843-5678.
• Copyright / DMCA — see Copyright / IP Takedown for the formal notice elements.
• Emergency / threats to life — contact local law enforcement first; then notify us so we can preserve relevant data.

1. Acknowledgement — automated within minutes confirming we received the report.
2. Review — a human reviews each report against the Community Guidelines and Acceptable Use Policy.
3. Action within 24 hours for objectionable content. Possible outcomes:

• No violation — we close the report and tell you why if you provided an email.
• Warning to the user, with a specific request to remove or modify the content.
• Content removal — we delete or hide the offending content from shared surfaces.
• Feature restriction— the user's sharing privileges are revoked while their private vault remains.
• Account suspension — temporary pending response.
• Account termination — for severe or repeated violations. See the Enforcement section of the Acceptable Use Policy.
• Law-enforcement referral— for illegal content where we're required or permitted to report.

We prioritize active-harm categories (CSAM, credible threats, intimate imagery posted without consent) for same-day action.

In every app, the page-level overflow menu on a shared page includes a Block action. Blocking has the following effects:

• The blocked user can't share new pages with you or send you new collaboration invitations.
• Their existing shared content is hidden from your view.
• You are removed from any of their shared pages you previously had access to.
• They are not notified that you blocked them.

Manage your block list in Settings → Privacy & Data → Blocked accounts (iOS / macOS) or Account → Privacy → Blocked (Cloud).

On surfaces that show third-party shared content, we apply automated filters for known-harmful content classes (CSAM perceptual hashes via PhotoDNA, malware via standard scanners) and remove matches before they ever reach your view. Filters are not perfect; the report flow exists to catch what filtering misses.

Email appeals@mindwiki.io within 30 days of the removal. Include the content identifier and the context we may have missed. We review within 10 business days. See the Appeals section of the Acceptable Use Policy for the procedure and the categories where appeals aren't available.
