Child Safety Standards

Grift is committed to protecting children from sexual abuse and exploitation. This page describes the standards and practices we follow to prevent, detect, and report child sexual abuse and exploitation (CSAE) on our service, in compliance with Google Play's Child Safety Standards Policy and applicable law.

1. Zero-tolerance policy

Grift has a zero-tolerance policy for child sexual abuse material (CSAM) and any content, conduct, or accounts that sexualize, groom, endanger, or exploit minors. Violations result in immediate content removal, permanent account termination, and reporting to authorities as required by law.

2. Age requirement

Grift is rated for users age 13 and older. Users under 13 are not permitted to create accounts. If we become aware that an account belongs to a user under 13, we will terminate the account and delete associated data.

3. Standards we follow

Grift's safety program is informed by, and aligns with, these internationally recognized standards:

• Google Play's Child Safety Standards Policy.
• The U.S. federal reporting requirements under 18 U.S.C. § 2258A (reports to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, NCMEC).
• The WeProtect Global Alliance Model National Response framework.

4. Prevention

• Community Guidelines. Sexual content involving minors, grooming behavior, and content that sexualizes minors are explicitly prohibited and surfaced to users at signup and in our in-app guidelines.
• Age gating. The app is rated 13+ on both the Google Play Store and Apple App Store.
• Authentication. Sign-in is gated through Apple or Google accounts, which apply their own age-verification controls.
• Limited features for minors. Direct messaging is not available between users.

5. Detection

• Manual review. The Grift admin team reviews all user reports and takes action within 24 hours.
• Image storage. Photos and videos are stored on Google Firebase Storage, which applies industry-standard scanning for known CSAM hashes at the infrastructure level.
• Account-level signals. Patterns associated with grooming or evasion (rapid block-cycling, repeated reports against an account, abusive handles) are flagged for admin review.

6. In-app reporting

Every post, comment, and user profile in Grift has a report action. Users can report content that sexualizes, endangers, or exploits a minor. Reports of CSAE-related content are prioritized and triaged within 24 hours.

To report content directly to the Grift safety team, email griftsocial@gmail.com.

7. Response and removal

• Content removal. Confirmed CSAE content is removed immediately upon detection or report.
• Account termination. Accounts found to be producing, sharing, soliciting, or distributing CSAE material are permanently banned. Associated content and edges (followers, blocks, reactions) are removed.
• Evidence preservation. Where lawful and appropriate, evidence is preserved to support reports to authorities.

8. Reporting to authorities

Grift complies with all relevant child safety laws and reports apparent CSAM to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) CyberTipline, as required by 18 U.S.C. § 2258A. Where required, we also report to regional and national authorities in the user's jurisdiction.

9. Contact

For child safety concerns, abuse reports, or compliance inquiries, contact our designated point of contact at griftsocial@gmail.com. We monitor this address and respond to time-sensitive reports as quickly as possible.

Emergencies that require immediate intervention should be directed to local law enforcement first. In the United States, you can also report directly to the NCMEC CyberTipline at report.cybertip.org.
