Publishing rules

Publishing content on Starowka.pl

We want submitting stories to be easy for honest users and safe for everyone. Below is the outline of the rules — the final wording will be reviewed by a lawyer before the production launch.

What you can add

Stories tied to a specific Old Town address, your own photos and short videos. We prefer personal accounts, family memories, and courtyard anecdotes. Verifying historical facts is the author's responsibility.

What we do not publish

  • Content that is unlawful or incites violence or hatred.
  • Personal data of third parties without their consent.
  • Material you don't hold the copyright to.
  • Spam, ads and content unrelated to the Old Town.

How moderation works

Most content is published straight away. Automated systems check text, images and video for prohibited content in the background. If something is uncertain, the item goes to a quick editorial review. User reports can be submitted via the Report content form.

Appeals

If your story is hidden or removed, you'll receive a message with the reason for the decision and the option to appeal.

Note: the text above is a draft. The final wording of the rules will be reviewed by a lawyer before user-generated content submissions go live.
