Introduction FILMZED+ is a Zambian entertainment and content creation platform built to empower creators, promote talent and provide opportunities to earn from original content. Our mission is to build a positive digital environment where creativity, entertainment, education and respectful expression can thrive. Unlike conventional social media platforms, FILMZED+ maintains a politically neutral, non-explicit and respectful content environment. This Creator Code of Conduct outlines the behavior, publishing standards and responsibilities expected from all approved FILMZED+ creators. By creating or operating a Creator Channel, you agree to follow these standards alongside the FILMZED+ Creator Agreement, Community Guidelines, Content Policy and applicable Monetization Policy. 2.

Creators are prohibited from publishing: Political campaign videos or advertisements Content promoting political parties or candidates Election propaganda Partisan political commentary Political debates and confrontational political discussions Content intended primarily to mobilize support for political organizations These restrictions apply equally to every political party, candidate and political viewpoint.

Creators must not publish: Pornographic videos or photographs Explicit sexual activities Sexual exploitation or sexually abusive material Sexually explicit livestream-style recordings or clips Content promoting or linking to pornographic services Sexually explicit text, imagery or thumbnails Romantic storytelling, discussions about relationships and appropriate educational content may be permitted where they are presented without explicit sexual material.

Family-Friendly and Responsible Entertainment FILMZED+ encourages creators to produce entertaining and responsible content suitable for a broad audience. Comedy, drama, music, lifestyle and storytelling are welcome. However, creators must avoid: Excessive abusive or insulting language Humiliating individuals for entertainment Dangerous pranks that place people at risk Exploitative or degrading challenges Gratuitous graphic violence Content that encourages harmful conduct Publishing sensitive personal experiences without appropriate consent Comedy and fictional performances may involve conflict or disagreement, but these formats must not be used as excuses to target real individuals with abuse or promote prohibited content. FILMZED+ may consider artistic context, audience suitability and the severity of the material during content review. 6. Religious and Faith-Based Content FILMZED+ welcomes creators who wish to share religious teachings, beliefs, worship, inspirational messages and faith-related educational content.

Uploading another person's video, music, film, artwork or other protected work without the required authorization is prohibited. Giving credit does not automatically replace the need for permission. Copyright complaints and ownership disputes will be handled under the FILMZED+ Copyright Protection Policy. 11. Creator Channel Identity and Content Categories Creators should accurately identify the purpose and category of their channels. A channel dedicated to cooking should primarily publish cooking-related material. A religious channel should maintain a clear faith-based focus. A comedy channel should primarily offer comedy and entertainment. Creators may publish reasonably related content and may request category changes when their channel direction evolves. Creators must not deliberately miscategorize content to bypass moderation, mislead subscribers or gain inappropriate visibility. Channel names, descriptions, profile photographs, banners and thumbnails must comply with FILMZED+ publishing standards. 12.

Level 5 — Permanent Termination Severe violations, repeated serious abuse, sexual exploitation, deliberate fraud or other major breaches may result in permanent termination of Creator privileges or the account.

Enforcement should be proportionate, evidence-based and consistent with applicable agreements and law. Legitimately earned undisputed payments remain subject to the applicable payment and settlement terms. 18. Creator Appeals Creators may request a review where they believe a warning, content restriction, monetization suspension or account termination was issued incorrectly. Appeals should explain the disputed decision and include relevant supporting information. FILMZED+ will review appeals fairly and may uphold, modify or reverse its original decision. Submitting an appeal does not automatically restore restricted content or Creator privileges. 19. Creator Responsibilities and Platform Representation Creators represent their own channels and creative activities. Creator approval does not create an employment relationship, legal partnership or authority to act on behalf of FILMZED+. Creators must not falsely claim to be official FILMZED+ representatives or imply endorsement of products, political organizations or outside activities without authorization. Creators are encouraged to support an environment that promotes African creativity, responsible entertainment, learning and legitimate income opportunities. 20. Updates to the Code of Conduct FILMZED+ may update this Code of Conduct to improve safety, address emerging risks, clarify publishing standards or comply with applicable law. Material changes will be communicated through appropriate platform channels. Updates will not automatically override the financial or licensing provisions of an existing signed agreement. 21.
