Introduction
KICK Streaming, also known as KICK, is committed to complying with the European Union’s Digital Services Act, also known as DSA, which establishes rules for transparency, accountability, and user protection on online platforms.
KICK is a livestreaming platform that connects Streamers and communities globally, including in the European Union.
DSA Status
KICK currently has fewer than 45 million average monthly active users in the EU.
As such, KICK is not designated as a Very Large Online Platform, also known as a VLOP, and is subject to the DSA’s standard intermediary and hosting service obligations.
Key Commitments
Transparency: KICK publishes a Transparency Report covering content moderation, government requests, and appeals.
User rights: Viewers can report content, appeal moderation decisions, and contact KICK through designated channels.
Content moderation: KICK uses a combination of human moderators and automated systems to enforce its Community Guidelines.
Authority cooperation: KICK responds promptly to lawful EU authority requests regarding illegal content.
User support: Clear points of contact are available for both Viewers and regulators.
Filing and Appealing Reports
If you are an EU resident, you can report suspected illegal content by contacting [email protected].
If you believe enforcement action against your account was issued incorrectly, or that your content was removed in error, you may file an appeal by contacting [email protected].
Once we have made a decision on your appeal, we will send you an email informing you of our decision. If you want to contest our decision further, you may be able to use other legal methods to seek redress, including the out-of-court dispute settlement process established by the DSA.
To access this settlement process, you must first contact a certified out-of-court dispute settlement body. The European Commission publishes and updates a list of certified out-of-court dispute settlement bodies, which can be found here.

Channel suspensions and permanent bans can be appealed by contacting [email protected].
