About the Team:
The Global Monetization Integrity (MI) team is responsible for ensuring that all monetized content on TikTok is safe, ethical and high quality through creation of innovative, scalable solutions designed to ensure TikTok users and businesses are protected.

Monetization Integrity is composed of Policy, Operations, Risk, and Data specialists working cross-functionally with key stakeholders (Legal, GR, PR, Engineering, Product, Sales, etc) to design and optimize advertising policies, manage moderation processes and iterate risk controls and systems driving efficiencies. The MI User Harm Issue Policy Team serves these teams by addressing key User Harm risk concerns at a platform, product, process and policy level. Identifying risks along these four key pillars, we will seek to provide insights, increase efficiency, improve risk governance, and expand co-governance collaboration in collaboration with key MI policy and risk stakeholders and with cross functional teams.
