Content with care and thought

Community Guidelines are the rules that define what is and what is not allowed on our platforms.

• If you post content that goes against Instagram Community Guidelines, we’ll remove it and may then apply a strike to your Instagram account. Whether we apply a strike depends on the severity of the content, the context in which it was shared and when it was posted.
• Account Status, a core tool you can use to track possible Community Standards violations on Instagram AND appeal any decisions you disagree with.
• If a content violates Community Guidelines, it will be removed from Instagram.
• Content abiding by guidelines doesn't guarantee recommendability; it can appear for followers but isn't eligible for Instagram features like Explore or hashtag pages.
