At GOG we value our community and their wellbeing. We also have our own values that we aim to uphold. That is why we have established a set of rules regarding the content we are distributing.
Any content to be released on the GOG platform or under any GOG-related brand needs to comply with the below guidelines. We understand that assessing what content is appropriate might be subjective and difficult, however, we are hoping you will understand that we must reserve our right to reject content applications in some cases.
Product content must be accurate and consistent with the product description. Once rated, content must be compliant with guidelines provided by the applicable rating authority (PEGI, ESRB, USK etc.).
Elements that cannot be involved in the content to be released via the GOG platform:
- Any kind of sexual exploitation of minors
- Encouragement or promoting real-world violence, terrorism, harassment, bullying, self-harm, sexual coercion, racism, discrimination against groups or individuals or any illegal acts
- Pornography or explicit or frequent depictions of sexual behavior not appropriately labeled or rated
- Elements infringing third-party intellectual property or other rights of third parties
- Malware, scam or fraudulent schemes
There might be some other limitations as for the content that GOG will distribute.
