Manipulated Media Policy

DeviantArt prohibits the posting or distribution of images or video depicting any person in a state of nudity, engaged in any act of sexual conduct, or otherwise intended to serve as sexually arousing stimuli which has been apparently created or posted without their permission. 

This includes:
  • Depictions that have been faked, whether through digital photo manipulation, face-swapping AI applications, or any other means or method. 
  • Images or video featuring the intimate parts of a person’s body, even if the person is clothed or in public, are not allowed if apparently created or posted without their permission while being contextualized in a salacious manner (e.g., “creepshots” or “upskirt” imagery). 

Do not post images or video of another person for the specific purpose of associating those images or video with sexually arousing material, such as captions or stories, faking sexually provocative or explicit content, or soliciting “lookalike” erotica or pornography.
