These Rules form an integral part of the Community Guidelines and the Terms of Use. By using the live streaming feature, you are deemed to have accepted these Rules.
1. Purpose and Scope
These Rules are intended to ensure that the live streaming feature on tamkonum is used solely for the purpose of promoting properties and businesses.
- Live streams may be opened to promote properties for sale or rent, to present real estate projects, and to promote businesses/services.
- A broadcaster may start a property tour stream; viewers may watch the stream and interact in the chat section.
- A broadcaster may stream together with invited camera operators or team members; where appropriate, private rooms may be opened for one-to-one meetings with viewers.
- Paid live streaming packages may be offered on the platform.
- Streams that fall outside this promotional purpose (personal chat, entertainment streaming, unrelated content, etc.) are outside the scope of these Rules and may be terminated.
2. Who May Stream; Account and Eligibility Conditions
