Asthoria Verse App Child Safe Policy

🔞 Age Restriction and Target Audience

Asthoria Verse is a social media platform designed exclusively for adults aged 18 and older. Our app does not target children in any way, and access by users under 18 is explicitly prohibited. This restriction is enforced through:

• Play Console Content Rating: The app is rated "18+" for mature audiences only.
  
  

• User Agreement: All users must confirm they are at least 18 years old upon account registration and agree to our Terms of Service.
  
  

• Age-Gate Verification: Age restrictions are integrated during sign-up to deter underage access.
  
  

• No Educational, Entertainment, or Content Hooks for Children: The app does not offer cartoons, child-appealing characters, or child-oriented themes.
  
  

🛡️ Content Safety and Moderation

To provide a safe and respectful environment, Asthoria Verse implements strict content safety standards, including:

• Automated AI Filtering: User-generated content is scanned in real-time to detect and block:
  
  

  • Sexually explicit content
    
    

  • Child-exploitative material
    
    

  • Violence or hate speech
    
    

  • Content that appears to be directed toward or exploits minors
    
    

• Human Moderation: A trained moderation team reviews flagged content or behavior.
  
  

• User Reporting Tools: Users can report:
  
  

  • Inappropriate posts or profiles
    
    

  • Suspicious behavior that might involve underage individuals
    
    

  • Any breach of community guidelines
    
    

• Content Takedown Policy: Content that violates our policies is removed immediately, and accounts are suspended or permanently banned depending on the severity.
  
  

🧒 Protection Against Child Endangerment (CSAE)

In compliance with Google Play’s definition of Child Sexual Abuse and Exploitation (CSAE):

• We strictly prohibit all forms of CSAE, grooming, exploitation, or endangerment.
  
  

• We report all suspected CSAE cases to appropriate legal authorities and child safety organizations such as NCMEC (National Center for Missing & Exploited Children), as required by law.
  
  

• User profiles engaging in suspicious activity are automatically flagged and reviewed.
  
  

🔍 Data Collection and Privacy for Minors

Asthoria Verse does not knowingly collect, use, or store personal data from anyone under the age of 18. In line with COPPA, GDPR, and Google Play policies:

• If we discover that a user under 18 has created an account, their profile and all associated data are promptly deleted.
  
  

• Our Privacy Policy details the type of data we collect and how it is securely stored and managed.
  
  

• We use industry-standard encryption and data anonymization to protect user data.
  
  

🔧 Enforcement & Compliance Mechanisms

We maintain an internal Child Safety Compliance Review Team that:

• Conducts regular audits of our app’s systems and moderation processes.
  
  

• Updates our safety features based on new threats and emerging child protection technologies.
  
  

• Coordinates with legal advisors and law enforcement when necessary.
  
  

We also provide regular employee training on recognizing and responding to CSAE or underage activity.
