Community Guidelines

Effective date: October 5, 2026 · Last updated: October 25, 2026

Pilates.TV exists to help people find Pilates teaching, videos, creators, studios, schools, and related information without being lost among unrelated content.

These Guidelines apply to accounts, profiles, channels, video submissions, listings, comments, reports, flags, playlists, links, and other contributions made directly to Pilates.TV.

Keep It Pilates

Videos submitted to Pilates.TV must be genuinely related to Pilates. Birthday videos, pet videos, unrelated lifestyle content, general entertainment, spam, and other non-Pilates material are not permitted.

At launch, Add Video accepts eligible YouTube links only. It does not accept direct video-file uploads. A submitter must confirm that the link is for a Pilates video the submitter has the right to share.

Be Accurate About the Source

Do not falsely claim to be a video’s creator, uploader, copyright owner, studio, school, employer, or representative.

A public, embeddable YouTube video may be listed for discovery, but that does not establish ownership. Preserve source attribution and do not interfere with YouTube’s player, controls, restrictions, advertising, or source links.

Listed and Claimed Creators

Pilates.TV may create unclaimed listings using public, embeddable Pilates videos. Unclaimed listings should be identified as Listed by Pilates.TV, not yet claimed.

Creator verification through a code in a public YouTube channel description establishes control of that channel at the time of the check. It does not automatically establish copyright ownership of all material associated with the channel.

Do not attempt to claim another person’s channel, impersonate a creator, or interfere with another person’s claim.

Style and Category Labels

Uploaders choose Classical or Contemporary when submitting a video. Contemporary is the default when no other supported selection applies.

A signed-in viewer may flag a video labeled Classical as Not Classical. After five different eligible accounts submit that flag, Pilates.TV may change the label to Contemporary. The video stays available unless it separately violates another rule.

Do not manipulate style flags, reports, likes, subscriptions, views, rankings, or other engagement signals through duplicate accounts, automation, payment, coordination, or deception.

Respect Other People

Do not submit or post:

• threats, targeted harassment, hateful conduct, or encouragement of violence;
• private personal information shared without authority;
• sexual exploitation or content that exploits or endangers a child;
• impersonation, fraud, scams, malware, or deceptive links;
• unlawful discrimination or abuse;
• spam, repetitive promotions, or artificial engagement;
• material that infringes copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity, or other rights; or
• content that encourages serious unlawful or dangerous conduct.

Health and Fitness Claims

Pilates.TV is not a medical provider. Do not claim that a class, instructor, method, product, or service is guaranteed to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent a medical condition unless the claim is lawful, accurate, and adequately supported.

Labels such as rehabilitation, prenatal, postnatal, senior, beginner, or advanced are discovery labels, not medical approval or a promise that content is suitable for a particular person.

Comments and Community Participation

Where comments are available, creators may be able to turn comments on, turn them off, or require approval. Pilates.TV may still moderate comments regardless of the creator’s selected setting.

Disagreement is permitted. Harassment, threats, spam, impersonation, and attacks based on protected characteristics are not.

Reports and Automatic Temporary Hiding

A signed-in member may report a video as Not Pilates, Copyright, Spam, Wrong category, or Other.

After reports from three different eligible accounts, a video may be hidden temporarily pending review. Temporary hiding is not a final legal or policy decision and does not remove the source video from YouTube.

Where the feature is configured to do so, Pilates.TV may notify the reporter and the member connected with the video. Abuse of the reporting system may result in restrictions.

Use Your Own Name and Brand

Names and identity. Pilates.TV may reserve, reject, temporarily hold for review, change, reset, reclaim or remove any username, channel name, display name, profile image, description, link or badge-like symbol that impersonates another person or organization, or is likely to confuse people about identity, affiliation or official status. The Pilates.TV name, logo, staff titles and sister-brand names, including close variations, may only be used with written permission.

Impersonation. Members may not present themselves as another creator, organization, Pilates.TV or its staff, including through spelling tricks, look-alike characters, copied logos, fake verification symbols, misleading links or messages. Adding words such as “Official,” “Real” or “Team” does not make a confusing name acceptable.

Your safety. Pilates.TV staff will never ask for your password, payment details or a verification code in a comment or message.

Enforcement

Pilates.TV may:

• reject or remove a submission;
• correct a listing or label;
• hide content while it is reviewed;
• issue a warning;
• restrict a feature or account;
• suspend or close an account;
• preserve records needed for safety, security, rights disputes, or legal compliance; and
• refer a matter to a service provider, rights holder, or appropriate authority.

Where an appeal is available, it should be submitted within 14 calendar days of the notice unless the notice states another period required by law.

Paid or Featured Placement

Pilates.TV may offer optional paid or featured visibility. Paid or sponsored placement will be identified. Payment does not excuse a listing from these Guidelines and does not guarantee views, engagement, or continued publication.
