We have now updated our Scratch accounts and asked children to sign the agreement. They agreed to follow these guidelines at all times when using Scratch.
Scratch User Agreement
These are Scratch Community Guidelines
We need everyone’s help to keep Scratch a friendly and creative community where people with different backgrounds and interests feel welcome. Scratch welcomes people of all ages, races, ethnicities, religions, abilities, sexual orientations, and gender identities.
Be respectful.
When sharing projects or posting comments, remember that people of many different ages and backgrounds will see what you’ve shared.
Be constructive.
When commenting on others’ projects, say something you like about it and offer suggestions.
Share.
You are free to remix projects, ideas, images, or anything else you find on Scratch – and anyone can use anything that you share. Be sure to give credit when you remix.
Keep personal info private.
For safety reasons, don’t give out any information that could be used for private communication – such as real names, class, phone numbers, addresses, email addresses, links to social media sites or websites with unmoderated chat.
Be honest.
Don’t try to impersonate other Scratchers, spread rumours, or otherwise try to trick the community.
Help keep the site friendly.
If you think a project or comment is mean, insulting, too violent, or otherwise inappropriate, click “Report” to let us know about it.
