Acceptable Use Policy

Last updated 29 October 2026 · Version 0.1

Joy & Jack exists to write romance and sensual fiction between consenting adults, at the intensity you choose. This policy sets the boundaries. It applies to everything you send us: story ideas, details, names, messages to support and feedback.

1. What is welcome

• Fiction between adult characters who clearly want to be there, from tender to very explicit, at the comfort level you choose.
• Any setting or genre you like: contemporary, historical, fantasy, workplace, holiday romance and more, as long as everyone involved is an adult who consents.
• Your own invented details: names, places, memories, an inside joke. Please do not include anyone's personal information without their consent.

2. What we never write

Whatever the framing (fantasy, role-play, "it's only fiction"), we never write:

• Minors: any character under 18, or a character who looks, behaves or is described as childlike, in a sexual or romantic context. This includes school settings for minors and ambiguous ages.
• Incest: sexual or romantic relationships between family members, including step-family.
• Non-consent and coercion: non-consensual acts, coercion, blackmail, or intoxication that prevents consent, including role-played or "consensual non-consent".
• Sexual violence of any kind.
• Bestiality: any sexual content involving animals.
• Necrophilia.
• Real or identifiable people: celebrities, public figures, or private individuals such as an ex-partner, a colleague or a neighbour, whether named or recognisable.
• Copyrighted or trademarked characters from books, films, games or other works.
• Hate: content that degrades or attacks people for who they are.
• Self-harm: content that promotes or encourages self-harm or suicide.
• Illegal activity: content that promotes or gives instructions for crimes.
• Doxxing: revealing anyone's personal information, such as an address, workplace or contact details.

3. How we enforce it

Every request is checked before we write, and every story after. When a request breaks these rules, we tell you which rule it touches so you can rephrase it. A story that breaks them is not stored.

When someone keeps trying, we apply these steps, depending on how serious and repeated the behaviour is:

1. A refused request, with an explanation.
2. A warning on the account.
3. A temporary suspension.
4. Closing the account.

Anything involving minors leads to immediate closure and, where the law requires, a report to the authorities.

4. Appeals

If you think we got it wrong, write to hello@joyandjack.com or follow our Complaints Policy. A person reviews every appeal.
