Child Safety & CSAE Policy

1. Age requirement

You must be 18 years of age or older to create a NoGhost account or use any feature of the platform. We do not knowingly collect, store, or process personal data from anyone under 18. If we become aware that a minor has created an account, we will permanently delete that account and all associated data without delay.

2. Zero-tolerance stance

NoGhost prohibits all content and conduct that sexualises, exploits, or endangers children. This includes, but is not limited to:

• Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM), including any image or video depicting the sexual abuse of a minor.
• Sexualised content involving anyone under 18, including AI-generated or digitally altered material.
• Grooming, luring, or solicitation of a minor for sexual purposes.
• Any communication that encourages a minor to engage in sexual activity or share intimate images.
• Sharing or linking to third-party content that depicts the sexual exploitation of children.

3. Prohibited conduct

Users must not use NoGhost to contact minors, misrepresent their age to access or interact with minors, share content that sexualises children, or use the platform to facilitate any form of child exploitation. Attempting to do so — whether through profiles, messages, stories, events, or any other feature — is a serious violation that results in immediate and permanent account termination.

4. Reporting

If you encounter content or behaviour that you believe violates this policy, report it immediately. You can:

• Use the in-app Report function on any profile or message, selecting the relevant reason.
• Use our Contact page and include "CSAE Report" in your message.

We treat every report as urgent and prioritise review of any report involving potential harm to a child. Where appropriate, we preserve evidence for law enforcement before removing it.

5. Enforcement

When we identify a violation of this policy we take immediate action, which may include:

• Permanent removal of the offending account and all associated content.
• Blocking the user from creating new accounts.
• Preserving and disclosing relevant records to law enforcement.
• Reporting the content and user to the appropriate authorities, including the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) CyberTipline where applicable.

There is no warning or appeal process for violations involving the sexual exploitation of children. Such accounts are terminated immediately upon discovery.

6. Cooperation with law enforcement

NoGhost cooperates fully with law enforcement agencies and child-safety authorities investigating suspected child sexual abuse or exploitation. We will preserve and provide account records, messages, and uploaded content in response to valid legal process, and we may proactively report suspected CSAE to the appropriate authorities even without a formal request.

7. Content moderation

We use a combination of user reports, admin review, and automated screening to detect and remove content that violates this policy. We continuously review our moderation practices to improve detection of CSAE and related harms.

8. Contact

Questions about this policy can be sent through our Contact page. Urgent child-safety reports should be flagged as such so they are handled immediately.
