Content policy for shared stacks

What we remove

Doses that will put someone in hospital

A published plan is read by strangers, some of whom will copy it. Where a dose or combination is far outside anything any source describes and the obvious outcome is serious harm, it comes off the public side. This is the narrowest rule here and the one we act on fastest.

Selling, sourcing, or advertising

Bioalmanac sells nothing and takes no money for placement. A stack is not a shop window: no vendor links, no discount codes, no "message me", no affiliate anything. The vendor directory is where prices belong, and it is not for sale either.

Posing as a clinician or a company

You may publish under a pseudonym — that is the design. You may not present yourself as a doctor, a pharmacist, a lab, or a brand you are not, and you may not frame a personal plan as a clinical protocol someone prescribed.

Private information

Anyone else's identifying details, obviously. Also your own: a note naming your prescriber, your clinic, your employer, or your address is one we will remove, because a published page is permanent in ways that are hard to feel while writing it.

Content aimed at minors

Nothing here is for anyone under 18, and a stack written for or about a child is removed outright.

Spam

Nonsense, duplicates, keyword filler, and anything published to rank rather than to inform.

What we do not remove

This half matters as much as the other. A site that removes anything anyone objects to ends up publishing only the uncontroversial, and the uncontroversial is already everywhere.

• —A plan we think is a bad idea. Almost everything described on this site is unapproved, under-evidenced, or both — that is stated on every compound page. Publishing a plan is not a claim that it is wise, and disagreeing with someone's choices is not grounds for removing their record of them.
• —An unusual dose that is within the range sources describe, even at the top of it.
• —A cycle that did not work, or one the author abandoned. Failures are more useful than successes and there are almost none published anywhere.
• —Blunt writing, strong opinions about vendors, or an author being unimpressed with something popular.

Reporting

Every public profile and stack has a “Report this” control at the foot of the page. You do not need an account to use it. Reports go into a queue a person reads — there is no automatic removal, and nothing is taken down by a volume of reports.

We do not reply to reports, and we never tell an author who reported them or how many times. That is deliberate: reporting that is visible becomes a way to harass whoever was reported.

If we take something down

• The page stops being public and drops out of the sitemap and the stacks index.
• You keep everything. The stack, its schedule, your notes, and your dose history stay in your account and stay in your data export. We are declining to publish something, not confiscating your record of it.
• You are told on your own stacks screen that it was taken down, with the reason. You are not told that anyone reported it.
• You cannot republish it while the takedown stands. Editing it into something that no longer breaks the rule and asking us to look again is the route.
• Where a whole profile is hidden rather than one stack, the same applies to all of it at once.

To ask us to look again, or to tell us we got it wrong, write to [email protected]. One person reads that address, so a reply may take a few days.

Publishing is always a choice

Nothing you track is public until you switch it on, one thing at a time, and you can withdraw any of it at any moment — a takedown does not stop you unpublishing, and unpublishing is instant. What you share is where those switches live, and the privacy policy covers what we collect and what we never publish whatever you switch on.
