SMACC Code of Conduct

The SMACC Code of Conduct is the ethical foundation of our global content creator community. It sets out the values and principles that guide every verified member — ensuring trust, accountability, and professionalism in all public and collaborative actions.

As creators, we are not just individuals with cameras or keyboards — we are voices, influencers, and storytellers. This Code ensures we use our platforms responsibly, respect others, and contribute to a more honest, creative, and inclusive media environment. Every SMACC Verified Member agrees to uphold these standards, which form the core of what SMACC represents.

All members must acknowledge and agree to this Code of Conduct during the registration process. Failure to follow this Code may result in loss of Verified status.
