Child Safety Standards

Child sexual abuse and exploitation is the most serious category of harm we deal with, and we treat it accordingly. We prohibit it absolutely, we act on every report we receive, and we report confirmed material to the relevant authorities.

These standards apply to every part of Doing Live — live streams, voice and video rooms, reels, stories, profiles, comments, private messages, usernames and uploaded images.

You must be at least 18 years old to create an account or appear in any broadcast on Doing Live. We collect date of birth at registration and block registrations below the minimum age.

We remove accounts as soon as we identify that they belong to a minor, and we remove any content in which a minor appears — including where the account holder is an adult and a child is visible or audible in the background of a stream.

The following are banned outright and result in immediate, permanent removal:

• Child sexual abuse material (CSAM) in any form — photographs, video, live broadcast, drawings, animation or computer-generated imagery.
• Sexualisation of a minor in any way — through imagery, text, audio, emoji, captions or commentary.
• Grooming — building a relationship with a minor for the purpose of sexual exploitation, including gaining trust, isolating them, or moving the conversation to another platform.
• Sextortion — threatening to share a minor's intimate images to obtain further material, money or compliance.
• Soliciting, offering, trading, advertising or linking to CSAM.
• Trafficking of minors, or advertising a minor for any sexual purpose.
• Any attempt to arrange offline contact with a minor for a sexual purpose.
• Encouraging or normalising sexual interest in minors.
• Impersonating a minor, or presenting as one, in a sexual context.

How we prevent and detect

• Age gating at registration, with re-verification where an account is flagged.
• Automated screening of uploaded images, video, live stream samples, profiles and usernames.
• Human moderation by a trained team, available at all times, with a dedicated escalation path for child safety cases.
• In-app reporting available on every stream, room, profile, comment and message.
• Signal-based review — accounts that repeatedly seek out or interact with young-appearing users are reviewed proactively.
• Ban evasion controls to stop removed accounts returning under a new identity.

What happens when we find a violation

1. The content is removed and the stream terminated immediately.
2. The account is permanently banned, along with linked accounts and devices.
3. Evidence is preserved securely for law enforcement.
4. Confirmed CSAM is reported to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) and, where applicable, to the relevant national authority and law enforcement in the jurisdictions involved.
5. We cooperate fully with any subsequent investigation.

There is no warning stage and no appeal for confirmed CSAE violations.

Inside the app: tap the ⋮ menu on any stream, room, profile, comment or message, choose Report, then Child safety. Reports in this category are routed to a priority queue and reviewed ahead of everything else.

By email: write to childsafety@babylive.xyz. You do not need a Doing Live account to report to us. Include the username, a link or screenshot, and the approximate time if you can.

Reporting elsewhere

• NCMEC CyberTipline (international) — report.cybertip.org

We maintain a named contact responsible for child safety matters, including enquiries from regulators, platforms and law enforcement.

We comply with child safety and CSAE laws in every market where Doing Live is available, and with Google Play's Child Safety Standards policy and Developer Program Policies.

Where required, we report confirmed CSAE to NCMEC and to the appropriate national authority, and we respond to lawful requests from law enforcement through legal@babylive.xyz.

We review these standards at least annually, and whenever the law, Google Play policy, or our product changes materially. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page always reflects the current version.
