TikTok LIVE Violation Risk Checker

INFINITUM LIVE · CREATOR REFERENCE

Review ten common policy areas before going LIVE. The 0–100 result is an Infinitum checklist index based on your answers, not TikTok’s score or the probability of a ban. One serious problem can still lead to enforcement regardless of the total.

The checker does not send or store answers, access your account, or inspect a stream. The website’s normal analytics and cookie policies still apply.

Are you below the minimum age for hosting LIVE, or is someone else using your identity to host?

Do not host through an ineligible account or lend your identity. Check TikTok’s current age and eligibility requirements. Policy reference

Could young people be exposed to exploitation, unsafe participation or identifying personal information?

Stop the unsafe activity and protect young people’s privacy. A minor appearing incidentally is not automatically the same as an underage host. Policy reference

Does the planned content include nudity, sexual activity or sexualized behavior?

Remove prohibited sexual content and review exposure standards. A bedroom setting by itself does not establish a violation. Policy reference

Could you or guests threaten, harass, use hate speech or reveal private information?

Set guest boundaries, use moderators and stop abusive or privacy-invasive behavior. Policy reference

Does the plan involve dangerous acts, self-harm encouragement or graphic violence?

Remove harmful demonstrations and dangerous challenges. Review the relevant safety policy before broadcasting. Policy reference

Are you using fake viewers, engagement services, Gift recycling or deceptive match arrangements?

Stop artificial engagement and schemes that mislead viewers or manipulate results. Policy reference

Are Gifts or payments tied to betting, a paid chance to win, or prohibited goods?

Do not run wagering or paid-chance mechanics. Review regulated activity and applicable shopping rules. Policy reference

Will you broadcast music, footage or other material without permission covering this LIVE?

Use material you own or have permission to broadcast. Access to a track is not proof of a livestream license. Policy reference

Will you promote a business, affiliate product or paid partnership without required disclosure?

Use applicable content disclosure controls and clearly explain the commercial relationship. Policy reference

Could the broadcast include harmful misinformation, misleading AI media or deceptive payment requests?

Verify claims, apply required labels and remove deceptive requests. Political discussion or an external link alone is not an automatic violation. Policy reference

How the index is scored

Yes adds the stated policy area’s weight; No adds zero; Unsure adds half and marks the area for review. Weights total 100: hosting eligibility 15, youth safety 15, sexual content 12, abuse and privacy 12, dangerous content 12, artificial engagement 10, gambling and prohibited trade 10, rights 6, commercial disclosure 4, and information integrity 4. These are editorial priorities, not validated predictors.

What commonly needs review

Review unsafe youth participation, sexual content, harassment, dangerous acts, fake engagement, gambling mechanics, rights and disclosures. An empty room may raise quality or monetization issues. A bedroom, political conversation or external payment mention does not establish a violation without its context. Always assess the actual content and current rules.

If TikTok takes action

Read the notice, preserve relevant context and use the appeal option TikTok provides. This checker cannot reverse enforcement or guarantee recommendation or monetization eligibility. Read TikTok’s Community Guidelines.
