1. Scope of These Guidelines

These Guidelines apply to all content you upload, post, or share on eGrabby, including but not limited to:

• Contest submissions (stories, designs, videos, photos, etc.)
• Profile details, usernames, display pictures
• Comments, reviews, feedback, and messages where enabled
• Any other media or text uploaded through our website or integrated services

By using eGrabby, you agree to follow these rules at all times. Violations may lead to content removal, contest disqualification, wallet restriction, or account suspension.

2. General Community Principles

Our community is built on respect, creativity, and authenticity. As a user of eGrabby, you agree to:

• Treat others with respect and dignity.
• Avoid harassment, abuse, or targeted bullying.
• Share only content that you have rights to share.
• Follow all Indian laws and any applicable local regulations.

3. Prohibited Content

You must not upload, post, submit, or share any content that includes:

• Hate speech, discrimination, or targeting of individuals/groups based on religion, caste, gender, ethnicity, nationality or similar grounds.
• Obscene, pornographic, sexually explicit, or sexually suggestive material.
• Graphic violence, self-harm, or extreme gore.
• Content that promotes terrorism, extremism, illegal activities, or organized crime.
• Defamatory, libellous, or maliciously false statements about any person or entity.
• Content that violates another person’s privacy, including non-consensual images or personal contact details.
• Child sexual abuse material (CSAM) or any content involving minors in an inappropriate, sexual, or exploitative manner.
• Content that encourages betting, gambling or illegal financial schemes, except where clearly allowed under law and platform rules (eGrabby contests are strictly skill-based only).
• Any material that violates applicable Indian law (including IT Act, IP laws, etc.).

4. Copyright, Originality & Intellectual Property

When you submit content to a contest or upload anything to eGrabby, you confirm that:

• The content is your original work, or
• You have the necessary rights, licenses, or permissions to use any third-party material included.

You must not:

• Upload pirated content, cracked software, or illegal copies of paid resources.
• Use copyrighted images, music, fonts, or videos without proper license.
• Copy another participant’s entry or re-submit content that you do not own.

If we receive a valid copyright complaint, we may remove the content and, where appropriate, suspend access to contests or features until the dispute is resolved. Repeated infringement may result in account termination.

5. AI-Generated Content – Usage Rules

eGrabby may allow AI-assisted content (for example, designs, prompts, or AI-edited media) in specific contests, provided the rules of that contest permit such use.

When using AI tools, you must ensure:

• You follow the applicable AI tool’s terms of use.
• Generated content does not infringe on others’ IP or privacy.
• You do not falsely claim real-life facts or credentials using AI-deepfake tools.

If a contest is marked as “Human-Only Creative Work”, heavy AI generation may be disqualified even if the content is otherwise compliant.

6. Behaviour in Comments, Reviews & Interactions

Where comments or feedback features are enabled, you must:

• Keep language respectful and free from abuse.
• Not spam, advertise unrelated products, or drop irrelevant links.
• Not attempt to manipulate other users’ votes or decisions through harassment.

We may remove comments or block accounts that repeatedly violate these rules or create a hostile environment for others.

7. Contest-Specific Content Rules

All UGC submitted to contests must follow both this page and the specific Skill Contest Rules.

In addition, for contests:

• You must follow the declared theme, brief, and technical requirements.
• You must not include any brand logos, third-party IP or celebrity images without rights, unless the contest rules explicitly allow them.
• You must not hide illegal or offensive material inside entries (e.g., hidden text, layers or frames).

eGrabby and its judging panel reserve the right to hide, remove, or disqualify any entry that breaches these rules, even after it has temporarily appeared on the site.

8. “Everyone Wins” Rewards & Public Display of Entries

In “Everyone Wins” or multi-tier contests, many entries may receive wallet rewards, coupons, or recognition. To run these contests fairly:

• Your name, username, and part of your entry may be displayed on contest pages and leaderboards.
• Shortlisted and winning entries may be highlighted for marketing or educational purposes.
• We may show ranking, score bands, and badges using your displayed username.

If you do not want your content to be publicly used beyond the contest, please contact us before submission. However, in most contests, public display is essential for judging and transparency.

9. Reporting, Flagging & Takedown Process

If you see content on eGrabby that appears to breach these Guidelines, you may:

• Use any available “Report” / “Flag” feature near the content, or
• Email us at support@egrabby.com with:
  • Screenshot or direct link to the content
  • Reason for complaint (e.g., copyright, abuse, illegal, etc.)
  • Your contact details for follow-up

We will review genuine, complete complaints and may remove or restrict content that appears to violate these Guidelines or applicable Indian law. Some complaints may also be handled under our Grievance Redressal Policy.

10. Account Actions & Platform Sanctions

Depending on the severity and frequency of violations, eGrabby may take actions such as:

• Warning notification and education message.
• Temporary hiding of specific content or entries.
• Removal of contest rewards or rank.
• Temporary suspension from contests, wallet or certain features.
• Permanent account suspension or ban, in serious or repeated cases.

We reserve full discretion to protect our community, including refusing service to users who repeatedly ignore these Guidelines or misuse the platform.

11. Compliance with Indian Law & Local Authorities

eGrabby operates from Tamil Nadu, India and aims to comply with relevant Indian laws and regulatory guidance for digital content, IT services and intermediaries.

In particular:

• We may cooperate with lawful orders, notices, or directions issued by courts or government agencies.
• We may retain or share limited user and content data if legally required for investigations.
• Content that appears to be illegal under Indian law may be blocked, removed or reported.

Nothing in this page overrides mandatory directions from lawful authorities within India.

12. Child Safety & Minor Protection

Our platform and contests are primarily intended for users who are 18 years and above.

We do not intentionally target or solicit minors for:

• Monetized contests
• Wallet-based rewards
• Adult or sensitive categories of content

If you believe content involving a minor is unsafe, exploitative or abusive, please report it immediately. We will prioritise such cases and remove content at the earliest, in line with our legal obligations.
