Clear community informationThese pages explain how Zhakaw works, what members can expect, and where community rules apply.

What Zhakaw is

Zhakaw brings real-time public rooms and one-to-one chat into a single community space. The product is designed for Kurdish Sorani, Arabic, and English interfaces, including full right-to-left support.

How the community works

Members can join topic and city rooms, message privately, build friendships, customize profiles, and use community features such as reactions, stickers, stories, and local games.

Safety and moderation

Moderation tools, user reports, account sanctions, privacy controls, and administrative audit features are built into the platform so community growth does not come at the expense of basic safety.
