Twitch is enhancing transparency regarding the execution of its policies by introducing Enforcement Notes, which provide additional clarifications and examples within the Community Guidelines to facilitate easier compliance. This initiative follows the company’s commitment to informing rule-breakers about the reasons behind their account suspensions. Enforcement Notes will clarify how rules apply to platform trends, with new notes being added in response to observed data spikes, community confusion, or trending discussions on social media. Examples of existing notes include prohibitions on self-destructive behavior and sharing direct links to intimate content websites. Twitch assures that Enforcement Notes will complement, not replace, its existing communication methods with users and serve as a reliable source for policy and enforcement updates. Currently accessible through a web page search, Twitch plans to incorporate visual symbols and a built-in search feature for easier identification of new notes in the future.
