How can I report or block a user?

This article explains how to report a user, what to flag and to who, as well as what we believe might justify inappropriate comments or behaviour.

The givestar community is a joyful, fun and exciting place to be - a place where we are inspired to do good and make our fundraising count.


If you see a user, page or behaviour that you feel should be flagged as inappropriate, strange, misleading or damaging then we ask that you please alert givestar to this.


Some things that might be deemed worth flagging to givestar are:


  • Use of inappropriate, strong or offensive language - this might be within a donation comment, campaign text or elsewhere within the givestar platform
  • Antagonistic or combative language or behaviour
  • Racist or discriminatory language or comments





What to do if you believe a user should be reported?


In the unfortunate and unlikely instance that you come across language, comments or behaviour that you believe warrants reporting a donor to givestar, please provide the following information, in an email, to support:


  • Name of user
  • Behaviour which has caused your concern (if applicable)
  • A link to the user profile or page where the behaviour took place (if applicable)
  • Date you noticed this activity taking place (if applicable)
  • Text or screenshot of comment, message, text (if not applicable then a reason as to why you are reporting this)
