Safety is at the core of VSCO. Ensuring that our community is safe is our top priority. For that reason, we have built ways to report inappropriate content you may encounter on the VSCO app or site.
Our Community Guidelines explicitly prohibit content that contains violence or threats, nudity or sexually explicit imagery, bullying and harassment, promotion of self-harm or suicide, or private information. We have policies in place to combat other abuse types such as hateful conduct, spam or phishing, impersonation, intellectual property violations, and illegal conduct.
Please note the images used in the examples below are not considered in violation of VSCO's Terms of Use and are for demonstration purposes only.

What should I expect after I report content?
Our Trust & Safety team’s mission is to provide a safe space for all our creators. After you report content to us, our team will review the report to determine if our violations have been violated. There’s a number of actions we can take on content in breach of our policies: we can suspend users temporarily or permanently or ask them to remove specific media to comply with our Community Guidelines. Please bear in mind that to prevent abuse of our reporting mechanisms, reporting content does not immediately mean that the creator who posted it will be removed from our platform. We will conduct a thorough investigation and determine an appropriate course of action to ensure the safety of our community.
