Space Face (spaceface.io, and the Space Face apps for iPhone and Android) is for people 13 and up. These are our standards for keeping it safe, especially for teens, and how to tell us when something's wrong.

No child sexual abuse or exploitation, ever

• Nothing that sexualizes anyone under 18: no pics, videos, drawings, stories or links. That includes fakes and AI edits.
• No grooming: adults trying to get sexual or romantic with a teen, asking teens for pics, or pushing them to talk somewhere more private.
• No sextortion: threatening to share someone's pics unless they send more, or pay.
• When we find child sexual abuse material, we take it down, ban the account, and report it to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC), as US law requires. NCMEC works with police around the world.

How Space Face protects teens

• Profiles of members under 18 start out private. Adults can't send them friend requests or messages first, and they don't show up for adults in Browse, Search or Creators.
• There's no random or anonymous chat. Party rooms are just for friends, and all-adult or all-under-18.
• Space Acres towns are all-adult or all-under-18 too, and visits never cross that line. Visitors can't chat in a town they're visiting: they can only wave.
• At the Fairgrounds, adults and under-18s are in separate crowds, with their own floor, stands and chat. Bands and booth owners are adults, a band's shouts go one way, and booth chat is for adults. Mature shows and merch are for adults only, and merch that's Mature has no version in the game.
• In the apps, the phone's app store can tell us someone is under 18, and then the younger age counts. Accounts of anyone under 13 are locked.
• Songs, albums and pics marked Mature are hidden from anyone under 18.
• Slurs are stopped before they're posted.
• Notifications never say who sent something or what it says.

Tell us

• Every profile, pic, song, post, comment, message and party room message has a Report link, and so does every Space Acres chat line, sign, contest, character and town, and every show, shout and piece of merch at the Fairgrounds, on the website and in the apps. For anything sexual involving a teen, pick "Anything sexual involving someone under 18". Those reports go straight to the admins, and nobody is told who sent them.
• Or email safety@spaceface.io.
• If anyone is in danger right now, call 911 (or your local emergency number) first.
• You can also report child sexual exploitation to NCMEC yourself, at report.cybertip.org or 1-800-843-5678.

Nude or sexual pics shared without consent

If a nude or sexual pic or video of you is on Space Face and you didn't agree to it being shared, we'll take it down within 48 hours of your request, and look for copies of it here too. That includes fakes made to look like you. You don't need an account to ask.

• On Space Face: hit Report on it and pick "A nude or sexual pic of someone, shared without their OK".
• Anyone else: email safety@spaceface.io with:
  1. a link to it, or enough to find it (whose profile, which album);
  2. a short statement that it shows you (or someone you're allowed to act for) and that you believe it was shared without consent;
  3. your name, typed, as your signature;
  4. how we can reach you.
• Under 18 in the pic? NCMEC's Take It Down can help get it removed from other sites too.

Our child safety contact

Space Face's admins handle every report about a child's safety themselves. Reach them, or ask about these standards, at safety@spaceface.io.
