CHANGE LOG
We comply with:
  • Requests for removal of an underage account.
  • Government requests for removal of non-sexual child abuse imagery.
  • Legal guardian requests for removal of attacks on unintentionally famous minors.
For the following Community Standards, we require additional information and/or context to enforce:
We may remove content created for the purpose of identifying a private minor if there may be a risk to the minor’s safety when requested by a user, government, law enforcement or external child safety experts.

Note: We’re always improving, so what you see here may be slightly outdated compared to what we currently use.
