Child Safety Standards Policy

Child Safety Standards Policy Social Networks

Commitment to Child Safety

At Social Networks, we are committed to ensuring a safe and secure environment for all users, particularly children. We take the prevention of child sexual abuse and exploitation (EASI) extremely seriously and have implemented robust measures to comply with Google Play’s Child Safety Standards and all applicable laws.

Scope

This policy applies to all features and functionalities of Social Networks, a social media platform that provides access to networks such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and other similar services. As an app categorized under "Social" on Google Play, we adhere to stringent standards to protect minors from any form of abuse or exploitation.

Policies and Measures Against Child Sexual Abuse and Exploitation

1. Prohibition of Inappropriate Content

  • Zero Tolerance for EASI Content: Any content that depicts, promotes, or facilitates child sexual abuse or exploitation is strictly prohibited. This includes images, videos, text, or links to such material.

  • Content Moderation: We employ automated systems and human moderators to detect and remove any content that violates our policies. Suspicious content is flagged and reviewed promptly.

2. User Reporting Mechanisms

  • In-App Reporting: Users can report inappropriate content or behavior directly within the app. Reports are prioritized and reviewed by our moderation team within 24 hours.

  • Anonymous Reporting Option: We provide a mechanism for users to report concerns anonymously to encourage reporting without fear of retaliation.

3. Age Verification and Restrictions

  • Age-Based Access Controls: Users must confirm they are at least 13 years old to create an account, in compliance with COPPA (Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act) and other regulations. Accounts suspected of being used by underage users are investigated and may be suspended.

  • Parental Controls: We provide guidance for parents to monitor and restrict their child’s use of the app through device-level parental control settings.

4. Account Monitoring and Enforcement

  • Behavioral Analysis: We use advanced algorithms to monitor user interactions for patterns that may indicate potential EASI risks, such as inappropriate messaging or contact attempts.

  • Account Termination: Accounts found to violate our EASI policies are immediately suspended, and relevant information is reported to authorities as required by law.

  • Collaboration with Authorities: We cooperate fully with law enforcement and organizations like the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) to report and address EASI incidents.

5. User Education

  • Safety Guidelines: Upon account creation, users receive clear guidelines on acceptable behavior and how to stay safe online.

  • Regular Updates: We periodically notify users about safety features and best practices to prevent exploitation.

6. Data Protection

  • Secure Data Handling: We implement industry-standard encryption and security protocols to protect user data, especially that of minors.

  • Limited Data Collection: We collect only the minimum necessary data from users and do not share personal information with third parties without explicit consent, except as required by law.
