Delta Cohost Acceptable Use Policy
This Acceptable Use Policy applies to your use of Delta Cohost and is incorporated into the Delta Cohost Terms of Service. Capitalized terms have the meanings given in the Terms.
Delta is built to help Twitch streamers create lively, personalized, AI-assisted channel experiences. That includes sarcasm, jokes, playful rivalry, and streamer-approved roasting. This policy is not meant to ban personality. It is meant to prevent unlawful, deceptive, abusive, unsafe, or platform-violating use.
1. Your responsibility
You are responsible for your channel, bot account, persona, prompts, settings, automations, media, loyalty rewards, launch copy, and anything Delta posts, triggers, displays, or helps generate for your channel.
You must use Delta in a way that complies with:
- Applicable law.
- Twitch rules and policies.
- Delta’s Terms of Service.
- Delta’s Privacy Policy and Viewer Privacy Notice.
- This Acceptable Use Policy.

2. Allowed tone and personality
Delta may be used for:
- Playful sarcasm.
- Streamer-approved roasting.
- Fictional rivalry.
- Edgy but lawful humor.
- Character-driven bot personas.
- Competitive trash talk within platform rules.
- Friendly trolling when it is not targeted abuse.
- Parody, commentary, tribute, or fictional inspiration where lawful and not deceptive.
However, channel tone does not override law, Twitch rules, or this policy. If a “roast” becomes threats, doxxing, stalking, sexual harassment, protected-class abuse, slurs, encouragement of self-harm, repeated unwanted targeting, or other prohibited conduct, it is not allowed.

6. Intellectual property and lawful content use

- Rights of publicity.
- Privacy rights.
- Confidential information.
- Contractual rights.

- License terms.
Delta does not decide in advance whether your use is fair use, parody, licensed, public domain, transformative, or otherwise lawful. You are responsible for those decisions.
7. Deceptive impersonation
You may not use Delta to deceive viewers into believing the bot, channel, persona, content, or output is an unauthorized real person, company, streamer, celebrity, Twitch staff member, brand, rights holder, government official, emergency service, or other entity.
Allowed examples may include:
- Original fictional characters.
- Clearly labeled parody.

You may not use Delta as a substitute for professional advice or high-risk decision-making.
You may not use Delta to provide legal, medical, mental-health, financial, tax, insurance, investment, emergency, or other regulated professional advice in a way that viewers could reasonably rely on as professional guidance.
Delta may be used for general entertainment, general wellness conversation, general financial literacy, or fictional roleplay only if it is clear, non-deceptive, and not presented as professional advice.
9. Sexual content and minors
You may not use Delta to create, solicit, sexualize, or distribute content involving minors.
