App and Developer Identification

1. Prohibited Conduct

The following conduct is prohibited on Chathub App Video Chat NoLogin. Suspected violations are reviewed and may result in account restrictions or termination, evidence preservation as required by law, and reporting to NCMEC or another authority when required. A human reviewer makes terminal enforcement and reporting decisions.

• Child sexual abuse material (CSAM) — sharing, distributing, requesting, soliciting, or possessing any image, video, audio, text, or computer-generated content depicting the sexual exploitation or abuse of any person under 18.
• Grooming — building, or attempting to build, a relationship with a minor for the purpose of sexual abuse or exploitation, including soliciting sexual images, requesting in-person meetings, or sending sexual or explicit content to a minor.
• Sextortion — threatening to expose sexual images, videos, or information involving a minor to coerce the minor or others into producing additional content, providing money, or performing acts.
• Child sex trafficking — recruiting, harboring, transporting, advertising, soliciting, or exchanging anything of value for the sexual exploitation of a person under 18.
• Sexualized content involving minors — sexually suggestive content, language, role-play, or behavior directed at or involving any person under 18, including AI-generated or computer-generated depictions of minors.
• Underage usage — creating an account, attempting to create an account, or using Chathub App Video Chat NoLogin while under 18.

2. Prevention and Detection

Chathub App Video Chat NoLogin uses layered prevention and detection to keep CSAE off the platform:

• Age gate. The app is intended for users 18 and older. Age is collected at account creation, and accounts that do not meet the minimum age are blocked from creation. Community guidelines must be accepted before any chat or call feature is unlocked.
• AI image screening. Chat and profile image uploads are screened by AI moderation before a chat message is delivered or a profile image is saved. Uploads classified as disallowed are rejected; a CSAM-classified signal is queued for human review. The current image classifier is not a dedicated CSAM-detection service, so we do not claim it detects all CSAM.
• Text safety signals. Chathub does not filter messages in real time for grooming or sexual solicitation. The Android send-time scan checks profanity, numbers, and app promotion, not child-safety patterns. The separate web and iOS surfaces have limited child-safety text-pattern signals that run asynchronously after sending; they are not comprehensive detectors and do not hold message delivery.
• Escalating restrictions. Distinct report signals can trigger bounded automated restrictions: at six signals, messaging may be limited for seven days; at fifteen, access may be suspended for thirty days. These thresholds do not automatically ban an account, and a human-reviewed account decision takes precedence.
• Screenshot and screen-recording protection. The Android app protects sensitive native conversation surfaces from screen capture in release builds. Browser-based web chats cannot guarantee the same screenshot blocking.
• Report hiding and blocking. After a report is successfully submitted, the reported account is added to the reporter’s local hidden/reported list and the current conversation is cleared. Blocking is a separate action in the report flow; users can select it to apply the app’s block behavior.

3. In-App Reporting Mechanism

Chathub App Video Chat NoLogin gives every user a clearly visible in-app way to report child-safety concerns at the moment they encounter them:

• Report from any chat or call. Users can report another account from the chat options flow, profile/image-report surfaces, or the in-call report button shown during active voice and video calls. The call report flow uses the same child-safety reason list and lets the reporter block the account immediately.
• “Child safety” report category. The report flow has a dedicated category for child sexual abuse, exploitation, grooming, and CSAM. Reports in this category are routed to a high-priority review queue.
• Reporter protection. Once report submission succeeds, the app hides the reported account from the reporter and clears the current conversation. This does not itself decide the reported account’s case; CSAE reports are escalated for human review.
• Out-of-app reporting. Users, parents, guardians, journalists, or platform reviewers can additionally report child-safety concerns by emailing the dedicated child-safety contact at support@chathubapp.com with subject line “Child Safety Report”.

4. CSAM Response Procedures

• Content handling. An image upload classified as disallowed is rejected before its chat message is delivered. A report or automated signal about content already on the service is preserved and routed for human review; report intake alone does not guarantee automatic removal or account termination.
• NCMEC reporting. An authorized human reviewer files a report with the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) via the CyberTipline at report.cybertip.org when required by 18 U.S.C. § 2258A. Where another authority is the appropriate recipient, reports are made to that authority as applicable.
• Evidence preservation. Relevant data is preserved for the period required by applicable law to support law-enforcement investigation, in compliance with applicable privacy and data-protection requirements.
• Reporter acknowledgement. After a report is successfully submitted, the app confirms submission to the reporter. Specific enforcement details may not be disclosed for legal, privacy, and investigative reasons.
