Rules for Content and Behavior

To maintain a safe and trusted environment, Replit has established a set of rules that are detailed in the Terms of Service. The same rules apply whether you are publishing a Replit App or engaging with other builders in the Community.
  • Keep it appropriate. All content must be suitable for a workplace environment and free of any offensive language or nudity. Violent and graphic content, as well as content that depicts or encourages self-harm, is prohibited.
  • No bullying. Replit has a zero-tolerance policy for bullying, trolling, doxxing, hate speech, racism, sexism, or any other form of prejudice. Violation of this rule may result in an immediate ban.
  • No illegal or regulated content. Replit should not be used for any illegal activities, such as dealing in drugs, sex, gambling, weapons, or pirated software.
  • Misuse of the service is not allowed. Do not share content that could harm other builders, such as spam, malware, or phishing. Replit Apps that consume an excessive amount of resources, such as spam bots and cryptocurrency miners, are also not allowed.

How Replit enforces rules

The Replit team works to keep the service safe by actioning reports concerning content that violates the Terms, Community Standards, or Privacy Policy. If your content violates the rules, Replit takes appropriate action against it. In circumstances of serious violations, you may be banned from using Replit. For more information, check out the Strike System FAQ.

Protecting underage builders

Replit upholds the highest global privacy standards for its youngest members. To ensure that their personal information remains safe, Replit does not collect it in the first place. To protect children from inappropriate images, Replit automatically scans all images uploaded to the platform. Machine learning technology quickly detects and flags most images that violate the rules for review by a staff member. Replit also takes swift action to prevent predators from using the platform. Any account that shares child abuse material (CSAM) or seeks sexual contact with minors will be terminated and may be reported to the authorities.
