Lex Community Guidelines

Fostering a safe and loving community is our top priority. These guidelines and our Terms of Use are made to ensure that every person on Lex has a safe and comfortable experience.

We encourage our community members to report any content on Lex they believe violates our Community Guidelines.

We adhere to a zero tolerance policy towards hate speech of any kind. We reserve the right to delete posts at our own discretion. Failure to adhere to these guidelines will result in being banned from our platform.

Be Respectful

Lexers engaging in racism, transphobia (including transmisogyny, trans-exclusionary language, and the fetishization of trans individuals), biphobia, fatphobia, ableism, sexism, religious discrimination or hate speech of any kind will be removed from the app. Harassment and bullying will not be tolerated. Microaggressions and/or exclusionary language will be taken seriously and in some cases result in a permanent ban.

If you are discussing sensitive topics, please include a Content Warning.

Be Empathetic

Our community represents many backgrounds, perspectives and experiences. Be respectful of thoughts and opinions that may be different from your own.

No Solicitation

For the safety of yourself and others, we do not permit the sale of goods or services, including the promotion of paid events, sale of tickets, crowdfunding, or fundraising. This includes any post outwardly asking people for money.

Be Original

Use your own material! If you’re using someone else’s words or content in your post or profile, please credit your sources.

Be Yourself

Posing as another individual, creating fake/scam accounts, or lying about being 18+ will result in immediately being banned from Lex. Predatory behavior or catfishing of any kind will not be tolerated.

Be Honest

Follow The Law

We do not tolerate illegal activity of any kind and will, in certain cases, report cases to relevant legal authorities.

Lex Suicide & Self Harm Guidelines

The well-being and safety of Lex community is a top priority. We have created our policies in order to support our community members who may be struggling and provide them with resources from experts.

We do not tolerate content depicting, normalizing, glorifying, encouraging, coordinating, or promoting suicide and self-injury. We highly encourage anyone struggling with thoughts of suicide and self-injury or someone who sees this issue, to immediately contact local emergency services or a mental health resource in their area.

If you see content that violates any of the above guidelines, please report it immediately through the app. This will not lead to their account’s ban and will help us reach out to the user to provide appropriate resources. Please note that when it is warranted, we will pursue contacting relevant authorities.
