In keeping with its mission to be fully transparent, Time2play said it will make it clear to viewers how streamers using its platform are funded. It will ask streamers to sign and adhere to a code of conduct. Users will also be able to flag any content that they feel is in breach of this code.

What we want to do is to help ensure that it is shown in the right context and to the right people.”
