4.6 Graphic Violence

Graphic descriptions of extreme physical injury, torture, or gore where the main purpose is to shock, disgust, or arouse.

4.10 Spam, Deceptive, or Low-Value Content

Mass‑produced, low‑quality content created solely to manipulate search rankings, clicks, or affiliate revenue, without real value for readers.
Misleading titles, covers, or descriptions created to trick readers into believing the content is something it is not, including impersonation of known authors or organizations.

5. Sensitive and Context-Dependent Content

Certain topics are sensitive and allowed only under strict conditions. Wricop.com may apply additional review to:

5.1 Educational, Historical, and Journalistic Works

Books that discuss topics such as hate speech, violence, extremism, or sexual content from an educational, historical, biographical, academic, or journalistic perspective.
These works must treat such topics with care, provide clear context, and avoid unnecessary detail that could be interpreted as endorsement or glorification.

5.2 Health, Psychology, and Self-Help

Books about mental health, trauma, self‑harm, or suicide that focus on prevention, awareness, or recovery are generally allowed.
Authors are encouraged to include appropriate warnings and, where relevant, information about seeking professional help or emergency support.

5.3 Religious and Political Content

Religious or political commentary, advocacy, and analysis are permitted provided they do not cross into hate, harassment, or incitement to violence.
Election‑related or public policy content must not contain clearly false claims intended to deceive or manipulate civic processes.

6. Moderation and Review

Wricop.com uses a combination of automated systems and human moderators to uphold this Policy.

Content may be automatically checked and classified for potential risk (for example: levels of violence, hate, sexual content, or self‑harm).
Content that appears to contain serious or borderline violations may be temporarily held for manual review before being published or may be re‑evaluated after publication.

Moderators consider the following when reviewing content:

The overall purpose and context of the book (for example: education, memoir, fiction, research).
The clarity of warnings or disclaimers, where applicable.
Whether harmful elements are being promoted, glorified, or presented responsibly.

Wricop.com has the final decision on whether content complies with this Policy and may remove or restrict content at its discretion.

7. Possible Actions for Policy Violations

If content is found to violate this Policy, Wricop.com may take one or more of the following actions:

Reject or unpublish the specific book or version.
Request edits or changes as a condition for approval or continued publication.
Limit distribution, visibility, or availability in certain regions or channels.
Issue warnings to the author or temporarily suspend account capabilities.
Permanently close accounts in cases of serious or repeated violations, especially involving illegal content or exploitation.

8. User Reporting and Appeals

Reports should clearly identify the book, author, and the part of the content that is concerning (for example: chapter, section, or page).

8.2 Appeals

Authors may appeal moderation decisions within a reasonable timeframe, providing additional context or updated content if they choose to revise the work.
Appeals are reviewed by a moderation team, which may uphold, modify, or reverse the original decision.
After an appeal has been fully reviewed, the decision of Wricop.com is final for hosting and distribution on the Platform.

9. Copyright, Licensing, and Plagiarism

Authors must ensure their work is original or properly licensed, including any external text, images, diagrams, or other materials.
If requested, authors should be able to provide proof of rights or permissions for third‑party content used in their books.

10. Privacy and Personal Information in Content

Authors must avoid publishing sensitive personal information about private individuals (for example: addresses, identification numbers, financial details) without a clear legal basis and consent.
Memoirs, biographies, and investigative works must respect privacy and defamation laws and should present information fairly and responsibly.

11. Accessibility and Technical Quality

Content submitted in PDF, ePub, or HTML formats should follow basic quality and readability standards, including clear text, logical structure, and working navigation.
Where reasonable, authors are encouraged to support accessibility (for example: meaningful headings, descriptive captions, and understandable layout).
Wricop.com may reject or request corrections for files that are corrupted, unreadable, or clearly not suitable for standard reading devices.

12. AI-Assisted and Automatically Generated Content

Authors may use AI or automated tools to assist with drafting, but remain fully responsible for the final content’s accuracy, originality, and compliance with this Policy.
Books that are largely auto‑generated but provide no meaningful editorial oversight, originality, or value to readers may be limited or rejected.

13. Regional and Legal Requirements

Laws and content standards vary across countries and regions. Wricop.com may apply additional restrictions or adapt distribution based on local legal requirements.
Some content may be available in certain regions but not others if local regulations or partner requirements differ.

14. Policy Updates

Wricop.com may update this Content Policy from time to time to reflect changes in law, community standards, or platform capabilities.
When material changes are made, Wricop.com will notify users through appropriate channels, and continued use of the Platform after such updates constitutes acceptance of the revised Policy.
