Transparency & Reporting
Last updated: 31 October 2026
Art Is The Horizon is a public directory of artists and creative spaces. This page explains how to report content, what we do about it, and your rights — including the things the EU Digital Services Act (DSA) and GDPR ask of us.
Point of contact
For reports, legal requests, appeals, or data questions, email hello@artisthehorizon.com. We respond to reports and valid legal/authority requests in English. This is our single point of contact for users and for authorities under the DSA.
Reporting illegal content or rule-breaking profiles
Anyone can flag a profile using the Report button on it (no account needed for the email route above). Tell us what's wrong — impersonation, illegal goods, hate, harassment, IP infringement, something that shouldn't be public — and add detail. You can report content you believe is illegal or that breaks our Community Guidelines.
What happens after a report (notice-and-action)
- We review every report. Reports alleging illegal content are prioritised.
- We act without undue delay — typically within a few days — and may remove or restrict a profile, or leave it up if it doesn't break the rules or the law.
- We don't use automated takedowns; a person reviews each one.
Statement of reasons
If we remove or refuse to publish your profile, we tell you why — you'll see the reason on your own profile page, and you can edit and resubmit or appeal by emailing us. We explain the specific rule or legal basis, and whether the decision was about illegal content or our guidelines.
Appeals
Disagree with a decision? Reply to the notice or email the contact above within a reasonable time and a person will re-review it. You may also have the right to pursue out-of-court dispute settlement or to contact your national authority (in the EU, your Digital Services Coordinator).
Your data rights
Depending on where you live (e.g. GDPR in the EU/UK, CCPA/CPRA in California), you can access, correct, delete, export, or object to the processing of your personal data. Most of this you can do yourself in Account settings and Edit profile; for anything else, email the contact above and we'll action it. See our Privacy Policy and Your Privacy Choices.
Age requirements
Art Is The Horizon is currently 18+. Minimum ages differ by country, and teen accounts (with verified parental consent) are planned; until then, under-18 sign-ups aren't accepted, and we never knowingly collect data from anyone under 13.
No dark patterns
We don't use deceptive design to push you into choices. Declining optional cookies is as easy as accepting them, and you can change your choices anytime.
