Child Safety Standards Policy

Commitment to a Safe and Age-Appropriate Community

Prohibition of Child Sexual Abuse & Exploitation

SinglesAroundMe (SAM) maintains a zero-tolerance policy regarding Child Sexual Abuse and Exploitation (CSAE). We explicitly prohibit:

  • The creation, upload, or sharing of Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM).
  • Grooming behaviors or any attempt to solicit minors.
  • Any content that depicts or promotes the sexual exploitation of children.

Violation of these standards results in an immediate, permanent ban and a report to criminal authorities.

In-App Reporting & Feedback Mechanisms

We provide users with robust, easily accessible tools to report safety concerns directly within the app interface:

Profile Reporting

Tap the three dots on any profile to report "Underage" or "Suspected Exploitation."

Chat Safety Tools

Directly flag messages that violate child safety standards for manual review.

Action Against CSAM

Upon obtaining actual knowledge of CSAM, SinglesAroundMe (SAM) takes immediate action in accordance with relevant laws and our internal protocols:

  • Immediate Removal: All identified CSAM is instantly removed from our servers.
  • Account Termination: All associated accounts are permanently disabled.
  • Digital Fingerprinting: We utilize hashing technology to prevent the re-upload of known CSAM.

Compliance with Child Safety Laws

We operate in full compliance with global child safety regulations, including 18 U.S.C. § 2258A. We maintain an automated and manual process to report confirmed CSAM to:

National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC)
We also cooperate with regional authorities, including Europol and Interpol, for international safety enforcement.
