Child safety standards

Prefer has zero tolerance for child sexual abuse and exploitation (CSAE). This page explains what we prohibit, how to report it, and what we do when we find it.

Who can use Prefer

Prefer is for people aged 13 and over; members under 18 should use it with a parent's or guardian's permission. Accounts we believe belong to children under 13 are removed.

What is prohibited

• Any child sexual abuse material (CSAM), including drawn, edited or AI-generated material.
• Sexualising minors in posts, photos, captions, comments or profiles.
• Grooming, sextortion, or any attempt to contact, manipulate or exploit a minor.
• Trafficking, or advertising or soliciting minors for sexual purposes.
• Sharing links to, or asking for, any of the above.

How to report

• In the app: open the post, tap the ⋮ menu and choose Report post. You can also block the member from the same menu or from their profile.
• By email: write to aliii.shoshaaa@gmail.com with the subject "Child safety" and a link or description of the content. This is our designated child safety contact.

What we do

• Reports about child safety are reviewed first, as quickly as possible.
• Violating content is removed and the account responsible is permanently banned.
• We report child sexual abuse material and exploitation to the relevant authorities, including the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) and Egyptian law enforcement, and we preserve information they need as the law allows.
• We cooperate with law enforcement requests related to child safety.

Compliance

Prefer complies with applicable child safety laws, and with the child safety policies of Google Play and the Apple App Store.
