1. Respect and Safety

Sapehive enforces a zero-tolerance policy for abuse, harassment, and discrimination.

  • Professional Conduct: Treat everyone with courtesy and professional respect during chats, phone calls, and physical shoots.
  • Safety First: Do not engage in behaviour that compromises the physical safety or mental well-being of another member of the community.
  • Fair Treatment: Discrimination based on gender, race, religion, nationality, disability, or sexual orientation is strictly prohibited and results in immediate account termination.

2. Platform Trust & Authenticity

Trust is the foundation of Sapehive.

  • Accurate Profiles: Creators must represent their identity, credentials, portfolio media, equipment list, and availability truthfully.
  • Original Content: Portfolios must showcase original work. Copying or presenting other creators' assets as your own constitutes intellectual property theft.
  • Verified Bookings: Do not create fake accounts, post spam reviews, or manipulate rating feedback.

3. Financial Integrity

Secure payments keep Sapehive operating fairly.

  • No Off-Platform Payments: All bookings, adjustments, and transactions must be processed via the platform's COD settlement or verified payment flows.
  • COD Settlement: Creators must settle Cash on Delivery payments promptly with the platform using their creator wallet to unlock digital asset releases.
