Vimeo Acceptable Use Community Guidelines changes — dated 2025-09-22 (NOTED)

What changed, in plain language

The only change is the scrambled code inside a link to a protected email address for reporting child-safety content. The email itself and all the rules around it are unchanged. Nothing about your rights or obligations changed.

This change appears to be cosmetic (formatting, typos, or contact details).

Changelog

± CHANGEDReporting email link code refreshed
Vimeo hides its abuse-reporting email address behind a scrambled link so spam bots can't read it. That scrambled code was regenerated, which happens automatically. The visible email address, the instructions to include the relevant URLs, and everything else on the page stayed the same.
