Child Safety Standards

Effective Date: 11/07/2026

1. Introduction

Embrs is committed to the safety and protection of children. This page describes the standards and practices Embrs maintains to prevent, detect, and respond to child sexual abuse and exploitation (CSAE) on our platform. We have zero tolerance for any content or behavior that exploits or endangers minors.

2. Prohibited Content and Conduct

Embrs strictly prohibits the following on our platform:

Child sexual abuse material (CSAM) of any kind, including AI-generated or digitally manipulated imagery depicting minors in sexual situations.

Any content that sexualizes, exploits, or endangers minors.

Grooming behavior, including attempts by adults to build inappropriate relationships with minors.

Solicitation of minors for sexual purposes, trafficking, or any other form of exploitation.

Sextortion or any attempt to coerce minors using intimate imagery or threats.

Sharing, requesting, or distributing intimate or sexual content involving minors.

Using Embrs AI features to create, or to attempt to create, any of the content above. Attempts are treated as violations even when the safeguards built into those features block the result, and are handled as described in sections 4 and 5.

3. Age Restrictions

Embrs is not intended for use by individuals under the age of 13. When users sign up in the mobile app, we ask their app store (Apple or Google) for their age band or, if it cannot provide one, ask for their date of birth. Existing accounts are asked the next time they open the mobile app. If the check shows a new user is under 13, the sign-up ends and the new account is deleted. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Accounts found to belong to underage users will be terminated and associated personal information will be deleted as described in our Privacy Policy.

4. Detection and Enforcement

Embrs relies on user reports, human review, and automated screening of AI features to address prohibited content and conduct:

Automated Screening: Requests to Embrs AI features, and journeys built with them before they are published, are automatically screened for content that sexualizes minors. Requests for that content are refused and flagged for review by our team. Public posts, replies, names, and bios are checked automatically right after they are posted or changed, and content that sexualizes minors is removed, or a name or bio is changed back. Images in posts and replies, and profile, channel, and group chat photos, are checked for sexual content when they are first used. Clearly sexual images in posts and replies are removed, those close to the line are shown behind a warning until our team reviews them, and if an image found this way is also sent in a chat, it is blurred there. Photos and videos sent only in a chat are not checked automatically. Graphic or violent images, and sexual images waiting for review, are hidden from users under 18.

User Reporting: Users can report content, profiles, and related accounts from within the App. Our team reviews reports through Embrs administrative tools.

Human Review: Reported material, and material our automated checks flag, is reviewed by people on our team. We do not yet match images against lists of known child sexual abuse material. Only a small number of our team can open the copies kept with reports, and every time they do is logged.

Account and Content Action: We may remove content and suspend, restrict, or terminate accounts that violate these standards. For confirmed CSAE violations, we aim to remove the material and restrict the account promptly, without a “warning only” outcome for clear CSAE.

5. Reporting to Authorities

Embrs complies with applicable child-safety laws. When we become aware of apparent CSAM or child exploitation on Embrs, we will preserve relevant records as required and report to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) or other authorities as required by U.S. law. We preserve the material and related information, such as the account involved and the surrounding messages, for at least one year after we report it, and longer if law enforcement asks us to. We cooperate with lawful law-enforcement requests.

6. In-App Reporting

Users can report concerns in the App, including by using the report option on posts and related menus on profiles or accounts, and on chat messages and conversations. When a chat message is reported, we keep a copy of it and of up to 10 earlier messages the reporter could see, so our team can see the context. Reports about child safety are reviewed first. Reports are reviewed by our team through our moderation queues. If you believe a report involves child safety, contact safety@embrs.com in addition to using in-app reporting so we can prioritize it.

7. Contact Information

If you have concerns about child safety on Embrs or wish to report potential CSAE that you have encountered on our platform, please contact us:

You may also report directly to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) at https://www.missingkids.org or by calling 1-800-843-5678.

8. Accountability

Team members who handle content moderation and user reports are expected to follow these standards. We will update our practices as our tools, legal requirements, and platform risks evolve.

9. Changes to These Standards

We may update these Child Safety Standards from time to time. If we make material changes, we will update the Effective Date and provide notice through the App or other reasonable means.
