Raise The Volume exists to give every person a platform to pour out their thoughts, share their story, and connect with others through voice, video, and words. We are dedicated to making this community a place of healing, encouragement, and genuine human connection.

We do not tolerate hatred, harassment, or harm of any kind. Every voice deserves to be heard with dignity.

Account information: When you register, we collect your name, email address, and profile details. This is used solely to create and maintain your account.

Content you share: Voice notes, videos, and written posts are stored securely. You control who can see and respond to your content at all times.

Usage data: We collect anonymised analytics (how features are used, what topics trend) to improve the platform. This data is never sold to third parties.

Device information: Basic device and browser data is collected for security and performance purposes only.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. Period.

You choose your audience every time you post. Options include:

• Everyone — your voice is shared with the full community
• Spiritual guidance — responses come only from community members offering spiritual perspectives
• Professional only — responses are limited to verified professionals such as therapists, coaches, and counsellors
• Anonymous posting — share without your name or profile being visible

You can change or delete any post you've shared at any time.

To protect every member of our community, the following content is strictly prohibited:

• Hate speech, racism, discrimination, or dehumanising content of any kind
• Harassment, bullying, threats, or targeted abuse
• Sexual content, explicit material, or content involving minors
• Misinformation, scams, or content designed to deceive
• Content promoting self-harm, violence, or dangerous activities
• Spam, unsolicited advertising, or off-topic promotional content

Voice notes and videos are hosted on secure, encrypted servers. Only users with the appropriate access level you choose can listen to or watch your content.

Voice and video content is reviewed by our moderation team when flagged by community members. AI-assisted moderation screens for harmful audio patterns before content is published.

You may delete any recording at any time and it will be permanently removed from our servers within 30 days.

We care deeply about your mental health and wellbeing. If content you encounter or share touches on difficult emotions, our trained community listeners and professional responders are here for you.

If you or someone you know is in crisis, please reach out immediately:
