Terms of Service

Last Updated: March 24, 2026

Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using Divine ("the Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, you must not use the Service.

The Service is provided by Divine ("we," "us," or "our"). These terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and Divine.

Zero Tolerance for Objectionable Content and Abusive Users

Divine maintains a strict zero-tolerance policy for objectionable content and abusive behavior.

Prohibited Content

The following content is strictly prohibited on Divine:

  • Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM): Any content depicting or exploiting minors
  • Illegal Activities: Content promoting or facilitating illegal activities
  • Violence and Threats: Content depicting graphic violence or threatening harm to others
  • Harassment and Abuse: Content that bullies, harasses, or abuses other users
  • Hate Speech: Content that promotes hatred or discrimination against protected groups
  • Non-Consensual Content: Sharing private content without consent (revenge porn, doxxing, etc.)
  • Spam and Malware: Malicious content or excessive unsolicited commercial content

Consequences of Violations

Users who post prohibited content or engage in abusive behavior will face immediate action:

  • Immediate removal of offending content
  • Suspension or permanent ban from the platform
  • Reporting to appropriate authorities for illegal content
  • Cooperation with law enforcement investigations

Content Filtering and User Reporting

Automated Content Filtering

Divine employs multiple methods to filter objectionable content:

  • CSAM hash-matching through Cloudflare and BunnyCDN filtering systems
  • AI-powered content analysis to detect adult content, violence, and other sensitive material
  • Automated age-gating for content identified as adult or explicit
  • Real-time scanning and blocking of known prohibited content

User Reporting Mechanism

All users have the ability to report objectionable content. When you report content:

  • Reports are submitted using the Nostr protocol (NIP-56)
  • Your followers can see your reports and use them to filter their own feeds
  • Reports contribute to the decentralized moderation ecosystem
  • Reports create a web of trust that helps communities self-moderate

To report content, use the report button on any post or contact us at our support page.

Response Time Commitment

We commit to reviewing and responding to reports of objectionable content within 24 hours.

For reports of illegal content (especially CSAM), we take immediate action:

  • Content is blocked from our infrastructure upon verification
  • Violating accounts are removed from the platform
  • Reports are filed with NCMEC's CyberTipline for CSAM
  • Law enforcement is notified when appropriate
  • We cooperate fully with legal investigations

Blocking and Muting Abusive Users

Divine provides mechanisms for users to protect themselves from abusive users:

User Blocking

You can block any user on Divine. When you block a user:

  • You will no longer see their content in your feeds
  • They cannot interact with your content
  • They cannot send you direct messages
  • The block persists across all Nostr-compatible clients

Content Muting

You can mute specific users, hashtags, or keywords to customize your feed experience without permanently blocking users.

Community Moderation Lists

Subscribe to moderation lists curated by trusted community members to automatically filter content based on community standards (NIP-51).

User Responsibilities

By using Divine, you agree to:

  • Comply with all applicable laws and regulations
  • Respect the rights of other users
  • Not post prohibited or objectionable content
  • Not engage in abusive behavior toward other users
  • Not attempt to circumvent our content filtering or moderation systems
  • Accurately represent yourself and not impersonate others
  • Respect intellectual property rights
  • Report illegal or abusive content when you encounter it

Age Restrictions

Divine is not intended for users under the age of 16. If you are under 16, you may not create an account or use the Service.

Some content on Divine is age-restricted and requires users to be 18 or older to view. By accessing age-restricted content, you certify that you are at least 18 years old.

Platform Rights and Limitations

Divine reserves the right to:

  • Remove any content that violates these Terms
  • Suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms
  • Modify or discontinue the Service at any time
  • Update these Terms of Service as needed
  • Cooperate with law enforcement investigations
  • Take any action necessary to protect users and comply with the law

Important Notice About Decentralization

Divine operates on the decentralized Nostr protocol. This means:

  • The Divine app can connect to multiple servers (relays and media servers) across the network
  • Content you post is distributed across multiple independent relays
  • Even if we remove content from our platform, it may persist on other relays
  • Other Nostr clients may display content using different moderation policies
  • Once content is shared, it may be difficult or impossible to completely remove

Limited Responsibility

We only bear responsibility for content hosted on our own servers. Content on other servers in the Nostr network is moderated according to their operators' policies.

While we maintain strict moderation on content served through Divine, we cannot control content on the broader Nostr network. Users should be aware of this when posting content.

Run your own servers: If you want different moderation policies, you're welcome to run your own Nostr relays and Blossom media servers with whatever policies you prefer. The Divine app can connect to any compatible server.

Disclaimer and Limitation of Liability

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND. DIVINE DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

DIVINE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE.

Governing Law

These Terms of Service shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States and the State of California, without regard to conflict of law principles.
