Child Sexual Abuse & Exploitation (CSAE) Policy

Last updated: January 5, 2025

Cyrcl is committed to maintaining a safe, respectful, and protective environment for all users. This document outlines our unwavering stance against Child Sexual Abuse and Exploitation (CSAE), which includes the creation, circulation, or facilitation of Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM). Any breach of this policy will result in immediate action.

What is CSAE and CSAM

Child Sexual Abuse and Exploitation (CSAE) refers to any act that harms, exploits, or endangers minors through sexual means. This includes, but is not limited to:

• Grooming minors for sexual purposes
• Sextortion of a child (e.g., using threats or blackmail to solicit sexual content from minors)
• Child sex trafficking and its facilitation
• Any attempt to sexualize or endanger a child online or offline

Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM) includes any image, video, illustration, animation, or digitally created content that depicts minors involved in sexually explicit acts. Possession, sharing, or production of CSAM is illegal and condemned globally.

Cyrcl explicitly prohibits all content and conduct that sexualizes or exploits children in any form.

Our Zero-Tolerance Policy

Cyrcl enforces a strict and non-negotiable zero-tolerance policy regarding CSAE and CSAM:

There are no exceptions to this policy.
