Beeldin Child Safety Policy

1. Introduction

At Beeldin, we are committed to creating a safe and supportive environment for all users, with special attention to the safety of children and minors who may use our service. This Child Safety Policy outlines our approach to protecting minors and preventing harmful or inappropriate content or interactions.

2. Age Requirements

Beeldin is intended for users who are 13 years of age or older. Users between the ages of 13 and 18 should have parent or guardian consent to use the service. We implement an age verification system during the sign-up process to help enforce these requirements.

The following age restrictions apply:

• Users under 13 years of age are not permitted to use Beeldin.
• Users between 13-18 years require parental consent.
• Certain features may have additional age restrictions clearly indicated within the app.

• Self-Harm Promotion: Content that promotes, encourages, or glorifies self-harm, suicide, or eating disorders.

4. Content Moderation and Safety Measures

• Reporting Tools: Easy-to-use reporting mechanisms for users to flag inappropriate content or behavior.
• Safety Disclaimers: Clear information about avatar personalities and fictional nature of content.
