Acceptable Use & Community Guidelines

Last Updated: July 12, 2026

Why This Exists

Commit is built around personal accountability, but it has social features too: you can add friends, share goal status, and even direct penalty payments to someone you know. Wherever people can see or interact with each other, we want it to be safe and respectful. This policy explains what’s expected of you, and how to report or block someone who isn’t meeting that bar.

This policy is part of our Terms of Service and applies any time you interact with another user on Commit.

1. What You Can See About Other Users

To be clear about what’s actually shared: friends you add can see a goal’s status (on track, missed, completed) if you’ve chosen to share it, and, if you use “Send Penalty to a Friend”, that a payment was directed to or from them. Friends do not see your evidence media (photos, videos, screen recordings), your chat history with the AI coach, or goals you haven’t chosen to share.

2. Expected Conduct

When interacting with other users on Commit, through shared goals, friend requests, or any future messaging features, you agree not to:

• Harass, threaten, or demean another user
• Use Commit’s friend or payment features to pressure, coerce, or manipulate someone (for example, pressuring someone into a “Send Penalty to a Friend” arrangement they didn’t genuinely agree to)
• Impersonate another person, or misrepresent your identity or relationship to someone
• Use a shared goal, username, or profile to share content that’s obscene, hateful, or otherwise inappropriate
• Attempt to access another user’s account, evidence, or payment information without authorization

3. Reporting a User

If another user’s behavior violates these guidelines, you can report them directly from their profile or from a shared goal:

1. Open the friend’s profile or the shared goal in question
2. Tap Report
3. Choose a reason and add any details that would help us review it
4. Submit: our team reviews reports and may reach out for more information

Reports are reviewed by Commit’s founder given the size of the team today. We’ll take action we consider appropriate, which may include a warning, removing shared content, or suspending the reported account, at our discretion.

4. Blocking a User

You can block another user at any time from their profile:

1. Open their profile
2. Tap Block
3. Once blocked, that user can no longer see your shared goals, send you friend requests, or direct payments to or from you through Commit

Blocking is immediate and doesn’t notify the other user.

5. What Happens After a Report

We aim to review reports promptly, though as a small team response times may vary. Depending on what we find, we may:

• Take no action, if the report doesn’t show a violation of this policy
• Warn the reported user
• Remove specific shared content
• Suspend or terminate the reported user’s account, per our Terms of Service

We won’t share the identity of who filed a report with the reported user.

6. Safety Around Real Money

Because Commit can move real money between users through “Send Penalty to a Friend,” please only use that feature with people you actually know and trust. Commit is not a payments platform for transacting with strangers, and using it that way is outside what this feature is intended for and outside these guidelines.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time; the “Last Updated” date above will reflect the most recent version.
