MyOrbit Community Guidelines
Welcome to MyOrbit
MyOrbit is a platform where people connect through messaging, AI companions, digital twins, and creative expression. These Community Guidelines help ensure everyone can safely express themselves and connect meaningfully.
By using MyOrbit, you agree to follow these guidelines. Violations may result in content removal, account restrictions, or permanent bans. For legal requirements, see our Terms of Service.
Our Core Values
Respect Everyone
Treat others how you'd want to be treated. Our diverse community includes eligible members aged 13+, from every background and belief.
Think Before You Post
Your content can impact others. Consider whether what you're sharing is helpful, true, and kind.
Protect the Vulnerable
We have zero tolerance for content that harms minors, exploits vulnerable groups, or promotes dangerous behaviors.
Be Authentic
Be yourself, not someone else. Impersonation and deception undermine trust.
Create Responsibly
With great AI power comes great responsibility. Use our tools to enhance creativity, not cause harm.

Confirming You Are an Adult
Before Mature content can be turned on, your account must be confirmed as adult by a selfie-based age estimate. The selfie is used for our age check and is not retained; it is not facial recognition and is not used to identify you.
If the estimate wrongly reads you as a minor, you can appeal by verifying with a government ID through Stripe Identity. That appeal is optional, and government ID is never required to reach any content level.
