Acceptable Use Policy

Content standards and prohibited categories

You may not upload text, or use Audiobooker to produce audio, that falls into any of these categories:

• Sexual content (NSFW). Pornographic or sexually explicit material, including explicit erotica.
• Violence and gore. Content that promotes or incites violence, glorifies real violent acts or terrorism, encourages self-harm, gives instructions for causing harm, or depicts gore in graphic detail for its own sake.
• Hate speech. Content that attacks, threatens, or dehumanizes people because of race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, caste, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, or serious illness.
• Child safety. Any content that sexualizes minors, including child sexual abuse material (CSAM), or that grooms, exploits, or endangers children. We have zero tolerance for this category.
• Deepfakes and impersonation. Using narration to impersonate a real person, to present audio as a real person's voice, words, or endorsement, or to mislead listeners for fraud or scams. Audiobooker offers only preset synthetic voices and does not clone anyone's voice.
• Copyright and trademark infringement. Books you do not own or hold the audio rights to, files with DRM removed, and content that uses someone else's trademarks in a way that misleads listeners about who made it.

Content that is otherwise illegal, defamatory, harassing, or that exposes someone's private information is also not allowed.

How to report content

If you come across audio made with Audiobooker that breaks this policy, email [email protected] with the subject “Content report” and include:

• where the content appears (a link, store listing, or file name);
• which category above it falls into, and why;
• how we can reach you, if you would like to hear back.

For copyright reports, also include proof that you own or represent the rights to the work and a statement that the information in your report is accurate. You can report other content anonymously.

How we review content

• Projects are private, and we do not routinely read them. We review content when it is reported, and when our usage records show signs of abuse, such as unusually high volumes from one account or network.
• Every report is reviewed by a person. Reports involving child safety are handled first; we aim to review other reports within a few business days.
• During a review we look at the project's text, audio, and account details, only as far as needed to decide the report.
• Our voice providers may also apply their own safety filters and refuse to narrate some text.

What happens when the rules are broken

• We remove or disable the content, its narration, and its exports.
• Depending on how serious the violation is, we warn you, suspend your account, or close it permanently. Severe violations, such as child sexual abuse material or credible threats of violence, lead to immediate closure without warning.
• We report child sexual abuse material to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) and report other illegal content to the authorities where required.
• Where the law allows, accounts closed for violations are not refunded for plans or unused premium minutes.

If you think we made a mistake, reply to our notice or email [email protected] and a person will look at the decision again.
