Acceptable Use Policy

Frevn is a marketplace for professional freelance services. To keep the platform safe, compliant with our payment partners, and useful to everyone, the following categories are prohibited. This policy is part of our Terms of Use.

Last updated: July 1, 2026

1. Prohibited categories

You may not offer, request, promote, or facilitate:

  • Adult content and services — pornography, escort, sugar-dating, cam or fetish content, or age-restricted intimate services.
  • Gambling and games of chance — sportsbooks, casino operations, lotteries, sweepstakes, fantasy-for-cash, or gambling affiliate schemes.
  • Unlicensed financial services — money transmission, forex or CFD signals for real trades, tokenized-security promotion, unlicensed lending, "guaranteed return" investment schemes.
  • Cryptocurrency operations — mixers/tumblers, unlicensed exchanges, ICO/IDO/IEO marketing, private-key custody, memecoin pumping, or airdrop farming for hire.
  • Multi-level marketing, pyramid schemes, matrix schemes, or recruitment funnels for the same.
  • Weapons, ammunition, explosives, or their controlled components.
  • Controlled substances — recreational drugs, prescription medication, kratom, delta-8/delta-9 THC where restricted, unregistered supplements, or steroid sourcing.
  • Counterfeit or infringing goods — replica luxury items, cracked software, pirated media, key-generators, resold licenses.
  • Academic dishonesty — writing graded assignments, taking exams on behalf of others, or ghost-writing dissertations for submission.
  • Hate, harassment, or violent extremism — content targeting protected classes, terrorist recruitment, or incitement to violence.
  • CSAM or child endangerment — zero tolerance; reported to authorities.
  • Doxxing, stalking, or surveillance for hire — including unauthorized location tracking or spyware installation.
  • Hacking-for-hire — unauthorized access, DDoS, credential stuffing, phishing kits, malware, botnet operations, or "SIM-swap" services.
  • Fake engagement — bought reviews, followers, votes, streams, or ranking manipulation on any platform.
  • Deceptive or fraudulent services — fake documents, fake IDs, chargeback-for-hire, mule accounts, or refund-fraud coaching.
  • Political interference — deepfakes of political figures, coordinated inauthentic behavior, ad-hoc voter suppression.
  • Sanctions violations — services to or from OFAC/EU/UK/UN sanctioned individuals, entities, or comprehensively sanctioned regions.

2. Restricted (allowed with disclosure or license)

These categories are allowed but require additional review and, where applicable, proof of licensing:

  • Legal, medical, tax, and financial advisory — must be qualified in the jurisdiction served and clearly disclose scope of practice.
  • Alcohol, tobacco, and cannabis marketing — allowed only where legal in both seller's and buyer's jurisdiction, and never targeted at minors.
  • Firearms accessories (non-functional cosmetic parts, holsters) — allowed; live weapons and ammunition are not.
  • Political campaign work — must be disclosed to Frevn on request and comply with local electoral law.
  • Adult-adjacent creative work (tasteful pin-up, boudoir photography editing) — allowed only if non-explicit and compliant with our content standards.
  • AI-generated deliverables — allowed, but sellers must accurately represent AI use in gig descriptions and honor any client "no-AI" requirements.

3. Enforcement

Depending on severity and history, violations may result in:

  • Content or gig removal without refund of promotion spend.
  • Warnings, temporary restrictions, or shadow-limits on visibility.
  • Immediate account suspension with funds held pending investigation.
  • Permanent ban and forfeiture of undisbursed balances used to offset fraud/chargeback losses.
  • Referral to law enforcement, financial regulators, or payment partners.

Serious categories (CSAM, terrorism, sanctions, hacking-for-hire, weapons) result in immediate permanent ban and mandatory reporting — there is no appeal.

4. Reporting a violation

If you believe a gig, message, or profile violates this policy, use the "Report" action on the relevant item, or contact us via the Help Center. Reports are triaged by our Trust & Safety team; we may follow up for additional context.
