Account has been reviewed by Flickr staff and marked as suspended

If your account is determined to contain posts that violate our Terms & Conditions of Use or Community Guidelines, your account may be temporarily placed into a suspended state. In that case, you will receive a notification with more details from Flickr’s Trust & Safety team in your email and FlickrMail account.

What happens to my account when it is suspended?

  • Your content will be viewable only to you as the logged-in account owner. Other members will not be able to see your photos. While your profile will still be searchable, your photos will be hidden from public view.
  • Your comments will not be displayed.
  • You will not be able to add new photos to groups. Group admins will not be able to see your photo submission.
  • You will still be able to upload Safe content, comment, fave, and send or receive FlickrMail.
  • Any existing group photos will be hidden from public view.
  • Other members will not receive notifications of your activity.

How do I remove the suspended state from my account?

To remove the suspended state from your account, you will need to remedy the issues described in the notification from the Trust & Safety team.
