Child Safety Standards

Prohibited content and conduct

The following are strictly prohibited and result in immediate removal and a permanent ban:

• Any child sexual abuse material (CSAM), or links to it, in any form.
• Sexualisation of minors, including sexualised text, requests, or roleplay involving anyone under 18.
• Grooming, sextortion, or any attempt to solicit, lure, or coerce a minor into sexual activity or the sharing of intimate imagery.
• Sharing, requesting, or trading sexual content of a minor, including self-generated content.
• Trafficking, advertising, or facilitating the sexual exploitation of a minor.

How we prevent it

• Age requirements. Constella is for adults — you must be 18 or older to use it, and we ask you to confirm your age when you join a campus. We remove accounts we learn belong to anyone under 18.
• Verified campus spaces. Access to a campus space requires a student/college ID reviewed by that campus’s admins, which raises the barrier to anonymous abuse.
• No private media sharing with strangers. Contact details are never shown publicly, and there is no open image-sharing channel that an abuser could use to push CSAM to a minor.
• Human moderation. We operate report and review queues. Content and accounts that violate these standards are hidden, removed, and banned.

How to report CSAE

Every post, answer, and dot in Constella can be reported from within the app using the report control on that content. Reports of child safety concerns are prioritised. You can also email us directly at imantobb@gmail.com (our point of contact below). You do not need an account to email a report.

If a child is in immediate danger, contact your local emergency services first. In India you can also reach the national child helpline on 1098.

What we do when CSAE is found

• We remove the content and permanently ban the account(s) responsible.
• We preserve the relevant records as required to support investigation by the proper authorities.
• We report apparent CSAM to the relevant authorities, including the U.S. National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) where applicable, and to local law enforcement. For users in India we report in line with the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act and the Information Technology Act, 2000 and rules made thereunder.

Compliance

We comply with applicable child safety laws and report to regional and national authorities as required. These standards work alongside our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. We review these standards as the product evolves and revise the date above.
