Child Safety Standards

Our commitment

StarLove has a zero tolerance policy for child sexual abuse and exploitation (CSAE). Content and behavior that sexually exploits, abuses, or endangers children is strictly prohibited on StarLove, without exception. We prohibit it regardless of whether the content involves real children, and regardless of the form it takes, including images, video, audio, text, links, usernames, profile content, messages, and computer-generated or edited material.

Accounts that engage in CSAE are removed permanently. Where required or appropriate, we report to law enforcement and to the relevant child protection authority.

What we prohibit

The following are prohibited on StarLove:

• Child sexual abuse material (CSAM) in any form, including sharing, storing, requesting, linking to, or facilitating access to it.
• Sexualization of minors, including any sexual, suggestive, or exploitative depiction or description of a person under 18.
• Grooming, meaning building a relationship or trust with a minor for the purpose of sexual exploitation or abuse, including attempts to move a minor to another platform for that purpose.
• Sextortion, meaning threatening to reveal intimate content in order to coerce a minor.
• Trafficking or solicitation of a minor for sexual purposes, or facilitating either.
• Promotion, normalization, or glorification of sexual interest in minors.
• Off-platform conduct of the kinds described above, where we become aware of it and it presents a risk to our community.

Age requirements

StarLove is a private, invitation-based community intended for adults. Users must be at least [MINIMUM AGE] years old to request an invitation or hold an account. We do not knowingly permit accounts belonging to people below this age. Accounts we identify as belonging to a minor are removed. Anyone may report a suspected underage account using the mechanisms below.

Reporting

Every member can report content or behavior directly inside the app. Posts, comments, messages, and member profiles each include a reporting option, and members can also block any other member. Reports are reviewed by our moderation team.

Anyone, including people who do not have a StarLove account, may also report a child safety concern to us by email at shalom@starlove18.org. Reports concerning child safety are prioritized.

How we respond

When we obtain actual knowledge of CSAE content or conduct on StarLove, we act promptly. Our response includes, as appropriate to the circumstances:

• Removing the content from StarLove.
• Terminating the account or accounts responsible, and taking steps to prevent the account holder from returning.
• Preserving relevant records as required by applicable law.
• Reporting confirmed CSAM to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC), or to the relevant authority in the applicable region, in accordance with applicable law.
• Cooperating with law enforcement requests that are valid under applicable law.

We comply with applicable child safety laws and regulations in the jurisdictions where StarLove is available.

Prevention

StarLove is invitation-based rather than open to the public. Membership requests are reviewed before an account is approved, which limits anonymous access to the community. Members are bound by our Terms of Service and Community Guidelines, which incorporate these standards.

Child safety point of contact

Our designated point of contact for child safety matters, including notifications from Google Play or Apple regarding CSAE content, is:

[NAME OR ROLE, e.g. "Child Safety Lead, StarLove"]
shalom@starlove18.org

This contact is able to speak to our enforcement and review procedures and to take action where required.

Updates to these standards

We review these standards periodically and update them as our product, our community, and applicable law evolve. The date at the top of this page reflects the most recent update.
