  • We use automated systems to detect and block unwanted content.
  • We provide complaint mechanisms and promptly moderate violations.
  • We prohibit the use of the application to promote hate speech, discrimination, threats, or violence.
  • We ensure the security of personal data by complying with international privacy standards (GDPR, CCPA).

1.3. Children's Safety Standards

Although our app "Need Help?!" is intended for adults, it's quite possible that minors could use it as well. However, we strive to create a safe and friendly environment for all users, especially children. Our safety standards include the following principles:

1.3.1. Compliance with CSAE and CSAM Prevention

Our application "Need Help?!" fully complies with Children’s Safety and Awareness Expectations (CSAE) standards and strictly opposes all forms of child exploitation in the digital space, including Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM). We take the following measures to protect children:

  • Detection and removal of CSAM – We use automated technologies to identify and block illegal content related to child sexual exploitation and actively cooperate with law enforcement and child protection organizations.
  • Prohibition and suppression of all forms of violence – The application strictly prohibits any content promoting or containing violence against children, threats, harassment, and exploitation. We respond immediately to reports of such violations.
  • Safe online interactions – We implement filtering mechanisms to prevent cyberbullying, unwanted contacts, and harmful behavior.
  • Minimal data collection – We do not request, store, or share children’s personal data without explicit parental or guardian consent.
  • Reporting and moderation mechanisms – Children and parents can easily report suspicious content or behavior, and our team responds promptly, including notifying the appropriate authorities when necessary.

We regularly update our safety policies to align with the latest CSAE requirements, international regulations, and best global practices for child protection in the digital environment.

1.3.2. Child-Appropriate Content

All content undergoes careful review and moderation to meet age restrictions and exclude materials that could harm children.

1.3.3. Protection of Personal Data

We strictly adhere to COPPA, GDPR-K, and other regulations that safeguard minors' data.

1.3.4. Safe Interactions

We use message filtering, automated risk detection, and manual moderation systems to prevent cyberbullying and unwanted communication.

1.3.5. Quick Response to Reports

We ensure prompt review of complaints, blocking of violators, and removal of inappropriate content.
