Child safety standards

Winkly has zero tolerance for child sexual abuse and exploitation (CSAE), including child sexual abuse material (CSAM). Content or behaviour that sexualises, grooms, exploits or endangers a child is banned on Winkly, and we act on it as soon as we find it.

• Every member must be 18 or older.
• Members give their date of birth when they sign up, and Winkly doesn’t let anyone younger than 18 create a profile.
• Members can verify their profile with a photo that our team reviews.
• If we have reason to believe a member is under 18, we remove the account.

• Sharing, requesting or linking to sexual images or videos of anyone under 18, including drawn or AI-generated material.
• Grooming: building a relationship with a child, or with an adult to reach a child, for sexual purposes.
• Sexual or suggestive content involving anyone under 18.
• Sextortion, or any attempt to buy, sell or trade access to children.
• Anyone under 18 using Winkly.

• Members can report any profile or chat in the app, with a dedicated “underage” category. Reports are reviewed by our team, and reports about children are dealt with first.
• When we find CSAE or CSAM, we remove it, permanently ban the accounts involved, and keep the evidence securely for the authorities.
• We report apparent CSAM to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) and to the relevant law enforcement authorities, and we cooperate with their investigations.
• We comply with the child safety laws that apply to us, wherever Winkly is available.

• In the app: open the profile or chat, tap report, and choose the underage category.
• By email: write to [email protected]. You don’t need a Winkly account.
• Outside Winkly: you can also report to the NCMEC CyberTipline or your local police.

If a child is in immediate danger, call your local emergency number first.
