- Avoiding false, deceptive, or unsubstantiated claims (especially around income, health, or legal guidance)
- Respecting intellectual property laws and proper citation practices
- Providing curriculum suitable for professional, entrepreneurial, or educational audiences
CrownThrive reserves the right to remove or edit any content that violates these expectations.

All instructors and contributors are considered independent contractors, not employees of CrownThrive, LLC. As such:
- CrownThrive is not responsible for contributor taxes or employment benefits
- Contributors are free to create and teach elsewhere unless restricted by a non-compete clause
- Each party retains discretion in whether to continue the publishing relationship
Contributor agreements may be terminated at will by either party with reasonable notice.
