Community Guidelines

At Deep Movement Collective LLC, we are here to help founders build real friendships, accountability, and momentum through simple, movement-based meetups. We design small, high-trust groups that meet in public settings and keep things respectful, safe, and human. These guidelines apply to your behavior on and off our platform, including meetups organized through DMC.

We use a mix of proactive systems and human review to prevent harmful or illegal behavior. We cannot see everything, so we rely on members to follow the rules and to report issues quickly. Breaches may result in warnings, temporary restrictions, permanent bans, and in serious cases, referral to law enforcement. You can report violations or appeal moderation decisions at: support@the-dmc.com.

    You must be 18 or older to join. Do not misrepresent your age. We may request ID to verify.

  • Name
    Use the name you go by in professional settings. We may request ID to verify.

Impersonation

No fake profiles or pretending to be someone else. One account per person.

Misinformation

Do not spread harmful falsehoods that create risk or disrupt meetups.

Violence or sexual misconduct

No threats, stalking, assault, or sexual misconduct. Any verified history of such behavior may lead to removal.

Scams and fraud

No deceptive financial pitches or fake opportunities.
Example: Pushing a fabricated investment scheme to your group violates our rules.

Sexual harassment

No unwanted sexual remarks or advances, no unsolicited explicit images, and no threats to share intimate content.
Example: Sending explicit DMs to a member after a meetup is grounds for removal.

Spam

No bulk unsolicited messages, misleading links, or multiple accounts used to spam others.

Suicide and self-harm

Graphic violence

Do not share gory or graphic content that makes others uncomfortable.


Meetup Etiquette

  • Keep it simple
    DMC meetups are 60 to 90 minutes, one activity, one time slot, in a public place. Show up on time, dress for the activity, and be prepared.
  • One group per cycle
    You are matched into a single small group each month, respect the group and the format.
  • Honor preferences
    We strictly honor gender preferences and expect you to do the same in communications and at meetups.
  • No selling to the room
    Light professional context is fine, hard pitching is not. Ask before sharing links or offers.
  • Substance use
    Be considerate and legal. Never pressure others to drink or use substances.
  • Respect boundaries
    Ask before photos, tagging, or sharing personal stories outside the group.

Attendance

  • No-shows
    If you cannot make it, cancel within the allotted window so your group is not left waiting. Two or more no-shows may lead to a suspension or ban.
  • No plus-ones
    Your spot is for you only. Bringing unregistered guests can lead to suspension.

Safety on the Day

  • Meet in public, well-lit locations.
  • Share your plan with a friend if you prefer.
  • If something feels off, leave and report it.
  • Use email reporting to flag issues as soon as possible: support@the-dmc.com.

Inactive Accounts

Accounts with no activity for two years may be deleted as part of routine data hygiene.


Reporting

Your safety comes first. Report violations, not simple disagreements or personality clashes. We use human moderators and automated tools to investigate. Include screenshots, dates, and any context that helps us act quickly: support@the-dmc.com.


Enforcement

Violations may lead to content removal, warnings, temporary restrictions, or permanent bans. We may remove accounts without prior notice where safety is at risk. You can appeal moderation outcomes by emailing support@the-dmc.comwith a concise summary and any supporting information.


Privacy

We default to privacy. Do not share personal information from your group without consent. Respect confidentiality around sensitive topics discussed at meetups.


Updates

We review these guidelines from time to time and will update them as DMC grows. Continued use of DMC means you accept the latest version.
