How moderation works

Moderation exists to keep The Vault safe, respectful, and workable for creators, readers, and staff.

Moderation decisions are guided by community rules, safety needs, ownership concerns, and platform trust. Support and policy pages explain the expected standards and where to appeal if something feels wrong.
