Welcome to Study Van! These guidelines help us maintain a safe, supportive, and productive learning environment for everyone.
Building a supportive and inclusive learning environment
Treat everyone with kindness, respect, and empathy. We're all here to learn and grow together.
Welcome learners from all backgrounds, cultures, and skill levels. Diversity makes us stronger.
Help fellow students, share knowledge, and celebrate each other's achievements and progress.
Provide helpful feedback and constructive criticism. Focus on solutions, not problems.
Essential guidelines for all Study Van activities
Users must be at least 16 years old. Users under 18 need parental consent to participate.
Avoid sharing offensive, explicit, or inappropriate content. Keep all interactions study-focused.
Share accurate information and cite sources when helping others with academic content.
Don't share personal information or ask others for private details like addresses or phone numbers.
Guidelines for messaging and communication
Keep group chats focused on study-related discussions. Use buddy chats for casual conversations.
Avoid sending multiple messages rapidly or repeating the same content unnecessarily.
Write clearly and avoid excessive use of slang, abbreviations, or all caps text.
Give others time to respond. Not everyone is online 24/7 or in the same timezone.
Best practices for video study sessions
Keep your camera on when possible and audio will be always muted.
Choose a quiet, well-lit space with an appropriate background for video calls.
Displaying any NSFW (Not Safe For Work) content in video calls will result in an immediate ban. Our system automatically detects and reports violations.
Tools and guidelines to keep yourself safe
Use the block feature immediately if someone makes you uncomfortable or violates community rules.
Report users who break rules, share inappropriate content, or engage in harmful behavior.
If something feels wrong or makes you uncomfortable, trust your instincts and seek help.
Contact our support team if you experience harassment, bullying, or any safety concerns.
By following these guidelines, you help create a positive and productive learning environment for everyone. Together, we can build an amazing study community!
