Our Community Guidelines

Welcome to Pear — a place built to raise your Vibe.

Pear exists to help people feel more in tune with themselves and the people around them. The experience works best when it’s supportive, encouraging, and real.

​

By using Pear’s social features (posting, commenting, sharing Vibe Scores, joining tribes, and interacting with others), you agree to these Guidelines.
 

1. Zero-Tolerance Policy
 

We have zero tolerance for objectionable content or abusive behavior.
The following are not allowed on Pear:

    •    Hate speech or discrimination — Content that attacks or demeans individuals or groups based on race, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability, or other protected characteristics
   •    Harassment or abuse — Bullying, threats, intimidation, repeated unwanted contact, or targeted negativity
   •    Sexual or explicit content — Nudity, pornography, or sexually suggestive content
   •    Violence or harmful behavior — Content that promotes or glorifies harm, self-harm, or dangerous activities
   •    Misinformation or harmful advice — False or misleading claims about health, recovery, or wearable data presented as fact
   •    Spam or manipulation — Unsolicited promotions, scams, fake accounts, or deceptive behavior
   •    Impersonation or inauthentic behavior — Misrepresenting identity, faking data, or using multiple accounts deceptively
   •    Content intended to provoke conflict or hostility unrelated to personal wellness


We may remove content, restrict access, suspend, or permanently ban accounts that violate these Guidelines.

​

2. What We Encourage
 

Pear works best when people show up with honesty and support.
We encourage:

    •    Sharing your Vibe, sleep, and health insights in a real and positive way
   •    Celebrating progress, wins, and small improvements
   •    Offering encouragement, empathy, and thoughtful comments
   •    Participating in tribes and challenges with respect
   •    Sharing practical tips for better sleep, recovery, movement, and awareness

Simple rule: leave people better than you found them
 

3. Safety, Reporting & Moderation
 

We’ve built simple tools to keep Pear safe and positive:
   •    Report — You can report any post, comment, or profile
   •    Block — Blocking a user removes their content from your experience and prevents interaction (this also notifies our team)
   •    Hide — You can hide content to personalize your feed

How we handle reports:
   •    Reports are reviewed by our moderation team
   •    We act within 24 hours
   •    Violating content is removed
   •    Users may be warned, restricted, or banned
 

4. Important Notes
 

    •    Pear is not a medical device or source of medical advice
   •    Always consult a qualified professional for health concerns
   •    These Guidelines may evolve as Pear grows
   •    Continued use means you accept any updates
