Acceptable Use Community Guidelines
NOTEDWhat changed, in plain language
The only change is a technical one: the scrambled link behind the CSAM reporting email address was regenerated. The visible email address, the reporting instructions, and every rule in the guidelines stay exactly the same.
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 harvest it. That scrambled code was regenerated, so the URL characters differ. The email address you actually reach and the instruction to include the relevant URLs are unchanged. Nothing about what you can post, how Vimeo moderates, or what happens to your account changed.
