12. Child Safety Standards

Blushmee has zero tolerance for child sexual abuse and exploitation (CSAE) of any kind. Our platform is a matrimonial service intended solely for adults aged 18 and above, and this minimum age requirement is enforced at the time of registration and profile creation.

• We do not permit any account, profile, photo, message, or other content that sexualizes, endangers, or exploits minors, or that facilitates contact with minors for such purposes.
• Any profile or content suspected of violating this policy is investigated promptly. Confirmed violations result in immediate removal of the content and a permanent ban of the associated account.
• We cooperate fully with law enforcement agencies and, where legally required, report confirmed instances of CSAE to the relevant authorities, including the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) or local law enforcement, as applicable.
• Anyone can report suspected CSAE content or behavior at any time by emailing our Grievance Officer with the subject line "Child Safety Report". Such reports are treated as a priority and are reviewed within 24 hours.
