Safety & child-protection standards

Zero tolerance for child sexual abuse and exploitation

Befrendle prohibits CSAM and any conduct that facilitates CSAE, grooming or trafficking. The adult-only beta is not an exception to these standards. Use in-app Report or contact the designated safety contact. Never send illegal imagery to support or upload it as a report attachment.

Operator response

The operator must monitor the report queue, restrict access to suspected abusive material, follow applicable preservation and reporting duties, and report confirmed CSAM to the appropriate regional authority, including NCMEC where required. These steps require trained human operation; the code does not automatically make legally compliant reports.

Practical controls

In-app reporting, blocking, private activity membership, explicit couple consent, revocable invitation links and account suspension are available. Text filtering is a limited configurable first layer and does not reliably detect every abusive message or drawing. Meet new people in public places. Never use the app as an emergency-response service.
