1. Our Commitment to Child Safety
Kaju Software Ltd. and our app, Kısmet, operate with a strict zero-tolerance policy against any form of child sexual abuse and exploitation (CSAE). The safety of our community is our highest priority, and protecting minors is a cornerstone of our trust and safety efforts. Our platform is strictly for adult users aged 18 and over. Any account suspected of belonging to a minor will be immediately suspended and investigated.
2. Defining Prohibited Content
We explicitly forbid any content or behavior that facilitates or engages in the exploitation and abuse of children. Our definitions are aligned with those used by global safety organizations.
- Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM): This is any content depicting a minor in a sexual context. This includes real, computer-generated, or digitally altered images, videos, and illustrations. Creating, sharing, distributing, or storing CSAM is a serious crime and is strictly forbidden on Kısmet.
- Grooming and Solicitation: This includes any interaction with a minor intended to build trust for the purpose of sexual exploitation. It also includes any attempt to solicit sexual content or activity from a minor.
- Sextortion: This involves coercing or threatening an individual, especially a minor, to produce or share sexual content. This is a form of blackmail and is illegal.
- Child Trafficking: Using Kısmet to facilitate the trafficking of minors for any purpose is illegal and will be met with the most severe response, including immediate reporting to international law enforcement.
3. Our Multi-Layered Safety System
We employ a comprehensive, multi-layered approach that combines advanced technology with trained human oversight to protect our platform.
3.1. Technological Prevention
- Content Scanning: Our automated systems scan text, images, and user profiles for content that violates our policies. We use industry-leading technologies like hash-matching (e.g., PhotoDNA and other systems) to detect and remove known CSAM before it is widely seen.
- Behavioral Analysis: We analyze patterns of user behavior to identify accounts that may be engaged in grooming, spam, or other malicious activities.
- Age Assurance: We use various signals and age-gating measures during sign-up to prevent underage individuals from accessing our service.
3.2. Human Moderation & Review
- 24/7 Safety Team: Our global team of trained moderators works around the clock to review flagged content, user reports, and automated detections to ensure swift and accurate enforcement of our policies.
- In-App Reporting: We provide prominent and easy-to-use tools for users to report any suspicious behavior, profiles, or content they encounter. Every report is reviewed by our team.
4. Community and User Responsibility
Creating a safe community is a shared responsibility. We ask our users to help us by adhering to the following guidelines:
- Report Suspicious Activity: If you see something, say something. Reporting inappropriate content or behavior is the most effective way you can help us keep the community safe.
- Do Not Engage: If you encounter a user you believe is a minor or is violating our policies, do not engage with them. Report them immediately using the in-app tools.
- Protect Your Information: Be cautious about sharing personal information with people you have just met.
5. Enforcement and Law Enforcement Cooperation
Violations of our child safety policies have severe consequences.
- Immediate Action: Any user found to be sharing CSAM or engaging in CSAE will have their account permanently terminated without warning.
- Platform Ban: The user will be permanently banned from Kısmet and all other platforms operated by Kaju Software Ltd.
- Reporting to Authorities: In compliance with global regulations (such as those from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children - NCMEC), we report all apparent instances of CSAM and illegal activity involving minors to the appropriate national and international law enforcement agencies. We preserve data and cooperate fully with legal investigations to help bring offenders to justice.
