Child Safety Standards

Last updated: March 14, 2026

Knotd (the app and developer name as shown on the Google Play store listing) is committed to the safety of children and to preventing child sexual abuse and exploitation on our platform. This page sets out our published standards and how we address related harm.

1. Our Standards Against Child Sexual Abuse and Exploitation (CSAE)

Knotd has zero tolerance for child sexual abuse and exploitation (CSAE). CSAE refers to content or behavior that sexually exploits, abuses, or endangers children — including, for example, grooming a child for sexual exploitation, sextortion of a child, trafficking of a child for sex, or otherwise sexually exploiting a child.

We are committed to:

  • Not allowing our service to be used to harm, exploit, or endanger minors in any way
  • Prohibiting and removing any child sexual abuse material (CSAM) and related content
  • Cooperating with law enforcement and relevant authorities when we become aware of such content or behavior
  • Complying with applicable child safety laws in the jurisdictions where we operate

2. Definitions

Child sexual abuse material (CSAM): Any visual depiction (including photos, videos, or computer-generated imagery) involving a minor engaging in sexually explicit conduct. CSAM is illegal and prohibited on Knotd. We do not permit the storage, sharing, or distribution of such content on our service.

Child sexual abuse and exploitation (CSAE): Conduct that sexually exploits, abuses, or endangers children, including grooming, sextortion, trafficking for sex, or other forms of sexual exploitation of minors.

3. How We Address CSAM and CSAE

When we obtain actual knowledge of CSAM or CSAE-related content or behavior on our platform, we take appropriate action in accordance with our standards and applicable laws, including:

  • Removal: Immediately removing the content and terminating the accounts involved
  • Reporting: Reporting to the relevant authorities (e.g., NCMEC and equivalent bodies in other jurisdictions) as required or appropriate by law
  • Prevention: Using technology and processes to help detect, prevent, and deter such content and behavior
  • Cooperation: Cooperating with law enforcement and child safety organizations in investigations

4. How to Report Concerns (In-App and Contact)

Knotd provides ways for users to report concerns without leaving the app, as well as direct contact options:

  • In the Knotd app: Use the report option on any profile or conversation. Select the reason that best fits (including safety-related categories). Reports are reviewed by our safety team.
  • Support email: You can report concerns by emailing [email protected]. For child safety matters, please use the subject line "Child Safety" so we can prioritize your report.

We take all reports seriously and act in accordance with our published standards and applicable law.
