══ ATHLETE DIGNITY POLICY ══

LoC exists to improve race understanding, not expose athletes.

Ultra running brings athletes into deeply vulnerable states. The job of a live race intelligence layer is to make the race more legible — not to extract suffering for content.

The following are operational principles, not aspirations:

· No humiliation coverage.
· No speculative medical reporting.
· No exploitative suffering framing.
· No dehumanizing athlete treatment.
· Moderation standards exist to preserve athlete dignity.
· Moderators may suppress unnecessarily invasive reporting at their discretion.

Athletes, crews, and races are invited to flag content that crosses these lines. Suppression is a normal part of the moderator’s job, not an exception.
