Code of conduct

This code of conduct outlines the expectations for Creator behavior as well as the consequences for unacceptable behavior for those who are accepted into the Deep Silver Creator Programme.

All determinations of appropriate or inappropriate behavior are in Deep Silver’s sole discretion.

We are happy to permit the creation, upload, and monetization of videos of our products on video and streaming platforms, although monetization is used exclusively to mean advertising and commercials on your channel. Any further exploitation of our products, such as sublicensing to third parties, is expressly prohibited.

Do

  • Be an extension of the brand. Deep Silver games are fun, friendly, and welcoming to all players and so are the creators we work with and the content we make.
  • Respect other players. Be graceful in victory and defeat.
  • Keep account information safe and private.
  • Play fairly and within the rules of the game.
  • Create content appropriate to a game’s designated age rating.
  • Be at least the age of the game rating when making content. Example: you must be at least 18 years old to create content for a game rated PEGI 18 or ESRB M.
  • Ensure that your content is compliant with the relevant advertising and local laws.
  • Ensure your content follows the rules of the platform you are posting on. Example: Deep Silver cannot contact YouTube on your behalf if your video is deleted due to using third party music you do not have permission to use.
  • You can share your authentic opinion of the content, even if it’s not entirely positive. Be fair in your comments.

Don’t

  • Engage in or link to hate speech, threats, spam, harassment, discriminatory or illegal behaviour.
  • Be overly commercial or “salesy”.
  • Do not intentionally look for criticisms.
  • Link to, reference, or advertise websites of key sellers which offer product keys.
  • Violate any copyright or trademark of Deep Silver or any other third party.
  • Promote or engage in gambling associated with Deep Silver titles.
  • Participate in any action which, in the sole and exclusive judgment of Deep Silver, defrauds the game or any other player.

Consequences of Unacceptable Behavior

Unacceptable behavior will not be tolerated. Anyone asked to stop unacceptable behavior is expected to comply immediately. If a participant engages in unacceptable behavior, Deep Silver may take any action deemed appropriate, up to and including expulsion from the program without warning.

If you encounter any unacceptable or inappropriate behavior from and by members of the Deep Silver Creator Programme, please contact us at DSCPSafety@deepsilver.com
