ChatMock generates images of fictional conversations. They are a design and illustration asset. This policy exists because a tool that produces realistic screenshots can be misused, and we would rather state the boundary plainly than discover it later.
Allowed
- Video, film and social content where the conversation is clearly staged
- UI/UX presentations, wireframes, product demos and pitch decks
- Teaching materials, dialogue exercises and classroom examples
- Fiction, scriptwriting, comics and storytelling
- Personal jokes and pranks among consenting adults, where nobody is harmed and nobody is misled about anything that matters
- Parody and commentary, where a reasonable viewer would understand it is not a real conversation
Not allowed
- Deception and fraud. Using a mockup to make someone believe a conversation occurred when it did not, especially to obtain money, credentials, access or any material advantage.
- Fabricated evidence. Submitting or preparing a mockup for use in legal, disciplinary, immigration, insurance, employment or academic proceedings.
- Impersonation. Presenting a fabricated conversation as the words of a real person, company, institution or public figure in a way that damages them or misleads others.
- Harassment, defamation and abuse. Including revenge contexts, bullying, stalking, and non-consensual intimate content.
- Forged documents and institutional notices. ChatMock is not a tool for producing fake bank alerts, payment confirmations, invoices, tax or government communications, medical records, court or police notices, or shipping and delivery confirmations. We do not build templates for these, and using the tool to approximate them is prohibited.
- Minors. Any sexualised, exploitative or harmful content involving minors. No exceptions, and we report it.
- Misinformation at scale. Manufacturing conversations to support a false claim about a person, company, election, public health matter or emergency.
Why the “no fake documents” line is drawn there
A fake chat between two friends is theatre. A fake bank transfer notification is a fraud instrument — it exists to make someone release money or data. The distinction is not about how realistic the image is, it is about what it is for. That is the line this policy enforces, and it is why you will not find banking, government, medical or legal templates anywhere on this site.
What we can and cannot do
Everything you create is rendered in your own browser. We do not receive, store or see your conversations, so we cannot proactively review them and we have nothing to hand over. What we can do is remove features that exist mainly to enable abuse, refuse to build the templates listed above, and cooperate fully with lawful requests about the site itself.
Reporting
If you believe someone has used ChatMock to create an image that violates this policy, contact us with the image and the context. Include the platform where you encountered it. Reports about content hosted elsewhere are best directed at that platform first, since that is where it can actually be taken down — but we will review every report we receive.
