Child Sexual Abuse & Exploitation (CSAE) Policy

Child Sexual Abuse and Exploitation (CSAE) includes any act or behavior that sexually exploits, abuses, or endangers a child. This includes, but is not limited to:

• Grooming a child for sexual exploitation
• Sextorting a child (i.e., threatening to release private content unless sexual favors are provided)
• Child sex trafficking or facilitation thereof
• Any behavior that seeks to sexualize or exploit minors

Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM) refers to any visual content, including photos, videos, illustrations, or computer-generated imagery, that depicts minors in sexually explicit acts. CSAM is illegal and universally condemned.

We prohibit any content or behavior that sexualizes children or puts them at risk on Player 2.

Player 2 strictly enforces a zero-tolerance policy regarding CSAE or CSAM:

• Accounts involved in CSAE or CSAM will be immediately suspended or terminated. An account that uploads or shares CSAM is banned permanently, and that decision is final and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, cannot be appealed.
• Content will be removed without warning.
• We report apparent CSAM to the CyberTipline of the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC), as United States law requires (18 U.S.C. § 2258A), and we report other incidents to law enforcement and relevant organizations. NCMEC may share reports with law enforcement agencies in the United States and other countries.
• We preserve reported material and related account information for at least one year, in secure storage that only a small number of designated staff can access, as United States law requires.
• We cooperate with authorities in accordance with applicable laws and regulations worldwide.
• We do not make exceptions.

We check images uploaded to Player 2, including images shared in chats, against lists of digital fingerprints ("hashes") of previously identified CSAM maintained by NCMEC and other child-protection organizations. We use Microsoft's PhotoDNA Cloud Service for this check: we send the image, or a hash of it, to Microsoft, which tells us whether it matches a known image. We generally check an image when it is uploaded, before it is stored or shown to others, and we may check images already stored on Player 2 again later.

When an image matches, we block or remove it, keep a copy as evidence, permanently ban the account, and report the match to NCMEC. We may not tell the account holder that a report was made.

Hash matching finds only material that has already been identified, so reports from our community remain essential. If you see CSAM or any other child exploitation on Player 2, report it as described below.

If you suspect or encounter any behavior, messages, or content involving CSAE or CSAM on Player 2:

You can also report it inside the app, without leaving it: from the post, comment, message, profile or community where you found it, or from Settings, under Support, Report/Feedback. You can also report it directly to NCMEC at report.cybertip.org. If a child is in immediate danger, contact your local emergency services.

All reports are confidential and investigated with the highest priority by our Trust & Safety team.
