Child sexual abuse and exploitation
+
+ OneHook is for adults aged 18 and over. We have zero tolerance for child sexual
+ abuse material, the grooming or sexual exploitation of a child, and any attempt to
+ contact a minor for sexual purposes. If we become aware of it, whether from a report,
+ our own review or a request from the authorities:
+
+
+ -
+ We remove the content we hold, ban the accounts involved and do not tell them
+ about our report.
+
+ -
+ We report it to law enforcement in India as the Protection of Children from
+ Sexual Offences Act, 2012 and the Information Technology Act, 2000 require,
+ including the police and the National Cyber Crime Reporting Portal. We may also
+ report it to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC),
+ which can share reports with law enforcement in other countries.
+
+ -
+ We preserve the related information we hold, such as account and profile
+ details, photos and reports, for at least 180 days,
+ or longer if a court or authorised agency asks us to, and share it with the
+ authorities. Only our designated safety lead can access it, and it is used for
+ nothing else, including training any model.
+
+
+
+ Your chats are end-to-end encrypted, so we cannot see their content unless you
+ choose to share it. If you come across such material, do not screenshot, save,
+ forward or download it, because that can itself be a crime. Report the member in the
+ app instead. You can also report directly at cybercrime.gov.in or by calling 1930.
