• Content that sexualizes, exploits, harms, or endangers minors.

• Grooming, solicitation, or attempts to establish inappropriate relationships with minors.

• Content that facilitates trafficking, abuse, or neglect of children.

• Sharing or requesting personal information of minors in ways that may endanger their safety.

• Attempts to exploit, manipulate, threaten, or coerce minors.

4. Detection & Reporting

IgiChat may use automated systems, user reports, and human review to detect and address prohibited content and behavior involving minors.

Where required or appropriate under applicable law, identified or suspected child sexual abuse material and related information may be reported to relevant child protection organizations, authorities, or law enforcement agencies.

If you encounter content or behavior that violates these standards, please report it immediately using the in-app reporting tools or by emailing child-safety@igichat.com.

5. Parental Controls & Guardian Oversight

We encourage parents and guardians to actively monitor their children's use of IgiChat and to discuss online safety with them.

If you believe a child has created or is using an IgiChat account in violation of our age requirements, please contact us at child-safety@igichat.com, and we will review and address the matter appropriately.

6. Safe Messaging Guidelines

IgiChat's messaging and communication features are intended to support safe and respectful interactions. Users must not use these features to groom, exploit, harass, threaten, or establish inappropriate contact with minors.

Accounts flagged for potentially inappropriate contact or conduct involving minors may be restricted or suspended while the matter is reviewed.

7. Content Moderation

IgiChat uses moderation processes that may include automated detection, user reporting, and human review. Content or accounts found to violate these Child Safety Standards may be removed, suspended, or permanently banned.

Where required by law or appropriate based on the circumstances, IgiChat may cooperate with relevant authorities and child protection organizations.
