Community Guidelines

Èsì is built to foster a trustworthy, vibrant community where users discover authentic local spots, share honest reviews, and unlock real rewards together. To keep Èsì safe and useful for everyone, all users are required to follow these Community Guidelines.

1. Be Authentic & Honest

Real Experiences Only: Only write reviews or upload photos for venues you have actually visited. Fake reviews, paid promotional posts disguised as genuine reviews, or coordinated spam ruin the community experience.

No Impersonation: Do not pretend to be another person, brand, venue owner, or Èsì official.

2. Keep Content Respectful & Safe

Zero Tolerance for Hate Speech: We do not tolerate harassment, hate speech, bullying, or discrimination based on race, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability, or nationality.

Explicit & Graphic Content: Do not post sexually explicit imagery, gratuitous violence, illegal acts, or dangerous activities.

Respect Privacy: Do not publish personal or private information of others (such as phone numbers, residential addresses, or personal identity documents) without their explicit consent.

3. Venue Review Integrity

No Conflicts of Interest: If you own, work at, or are directly affiliated with a venue, disclose it clearly or refrain from rating your own establishment.

No Extortion or Blackmail: Do not threaten a venue with negative reviews in exchange for free items, discounts, or special treatment.

4. Spam & System Abuse

No Commercial Spam: Do not use review sections or comments to post referral links, external advertising, or commercial promotional materials.

Automated Activity: Do not use bots, scrapers, or automated scripts to create accounts, leave ratings, or manipulate app data.

5. Enforcement

We reserve the right to review, flag, or permanently remove any content or account that violates these guidelines. Violations may result in:

  • Content Removal: deletion of violating reviews, photos, or comments.
  • Feature Restriction: temporary suspension of posting or reviewing privileges.
  • Account Termination: permanent ban from the Èsì platform.

If you spot content or user behavior that violates these guidelines, please use the in-app Report feature or contact our moderation team at support@helloesi.com.
