Chaturbate rely on reports by their users when a broadcaster has broken their TOS. If a broadcaster has been found to be breaking the TOS, they will receive an official warning or ban. Chaturbate does not want to be seen endorsing certain acts even behind hidden shows / password / private shows.
If you suspect a broadcaster is violating the TOS, Chaturbate ask to either use the report abuse or email support@chaturbate.com and they will look into the situation. Please take note that screenshots of the suspected violations does help.
Support have now stated that if a broadcaster wishes to upload a video to their gallery that contains music, they need to send proof that they have the permission from the producer of the music they wish to use.
Only then will Support allow the video, otherwise they will mute videos as is their standard policy to remove the possibility that the music may be unlicensed.
An email has been sent to Support to find out the answer to this, though its likely that support will mute the video.
Reply from Support will be edited in this reply once its been received.
Supports answer:
Our standard policy is to not allow background music in uploaded videos
to remove the possibility that the music may be unlicensed. With that
said, we may be able to waive this restriction if the broadcaster is
able to provide proof (to support@chaturbate.com before uploading the
video) that they have permission to use the background music that is in
the video.
Talking on the phone is not against the ToS, but it is advised to mute the microphone when talking.
That being said, if you are rebroadcasting a radio or Television program this ‘could’ fall under the copyright section of the ToS, therefore breaking the ToS.
BUT if your question is regarding someone hosting a ‘talk show’ on Chaturbate and asking their viewers to phone into the ‘show’ this a grey area. Chaturbate do state that anyone that appears on cam ‘body or voice’ have got to be verified on that account.. but the grey area is they class this as the other person to be in the same room as the person on cam.
Chaturbate have asked to pass this message onto their performers regarding the payment issues that most have experienced.
We at Chaturbate appreciate the frustration that some of our broadcasters who used FirstChoicePay as their preferred payout methods are going through. Ever since the FirstChoicePay debacle, we have been working around the clock to provide broadcasters who formerly utilized FirstChoicePay with an acceptable alternative payment mechanism. Although we are very pleased that new alternative payment methods that we have initiated are now up and running, we are still experiencing some delays during the transition process.
Regarding wire payment delays, we have been assured that the minority of wire payments that failed should be cleared up in the next several days. Please feel free to contact us at support@chaturbate.com if you require any further clarification.
They do get informed when they are on the site via a ‘popup’ message that they are suspected of break the Terms. The bans can range from a few days to a week to longer. It all depends on what violation that have broken.
Not sure, quite a few users have said that they’ve tried a pre-pay card and it won’t work. More than likely you would need bank account that comes with a credit / debit card to use for purchasing tokens & joining a fan club.
